Minecraft has been updated with the latest snapshot, bringing it up to version 13w19a.
The new updated version of the game comes with a host of improvements including a new form of stained hardened clay, and textures for charcoal, coal block, and lapis lazuli.
Players can now access the donkey and mule inventories by sneaking and interacting with them, so you can load them up with items and treat them as pack animals to carry your stuff around for you.
In addition to these new features, a number of bugs have been fixed. They are as follows:
[Bug MC-671] – Minecarts with Furnace consume coal in creative mode
[Bug MC-3960] – After the last use of a bow you get a glitch bow that when dropped and picked up again duplicates
[Bug MC-15061] – Coal blocks do not burn away
[Bug MC-15148] – Blurred menu background textures
Finally, mobs spawn as groups again instead of individual creatures.
To pick up the new snapshot, simply use the new launcher available in one of the appropriate links on the official website here. To return to the regular version of the game (1.5.2) simply start the old launcher and play it as normal.
