Other editions with a version "1.2.2":
Alpha v1.2.2 is the name given to three versions of Java Edition Alpha released on November 10, 2010.[1] Server version 0.2.4 was released with this version, which mainly fixed bugs.
Two versions are available in the launcher, Alpha v1.2.2a (a debug version) and Alpha v1.2.2b (which added support for more animations as well as minor changes and fixes).
Additions
Options
- Support for more animation settings.
- Support for 16×16 texture packs.
- Prior to this update, users would need to manually change the texture packs by overwriting the terrain.png image in minecraft.jar files, or use a patcher.
Changes
Blocks
- Now flows 8 blocks in the Nether. Prior to this update, lava flowed the same distance as it does in the Overworld.
General
- Now contains the texture pack selection menu for easy texture pack switching, replacing the "play tutorial level" button.
- Displays the version name in the top-left corner.
Servers
- It now takes longer for the "took too long to log in" screen to appear when connecting to a server.
Fixes
5 bugs fixed
- Players and mobs on fire, in lava, or next to cacti no longer plays the hurt sound every tick.
- Getting hit with a higher damage while recovering from a smaller one works as intended.
- Duplicating buttons when resizing screens fixed.
- Zombie pigmen and ghasts no longer get hurt by fire and lava.
- Fixed volume sliders not saving properly.
Debugging version
Alpha v1.2.2a added generation of a nether portal using F4.
Trivia
- pack.png, the image that is present when a texture pack has no default image, was generated in this version with the seed
3257840388504953787.[2] - Shortly before the update released, "texture packs" were going to be called "skins."[3] While they were called texture packs in-game, the change log for this update refers to them as both "skin packs" and "texture packs."[4]
