Minecraft Patch 1.8.1 Addresses a Number of Issues

October 16, 2014 by Jacob Saylor

A patch soon to be released by Mojang looks to put some issues plaguing Minecraft to rest.

Minecraft is quite the phenomenon. It’s made its way to a number of consoles and platforms, showing no signs of old age. Gamers are just as enticed by the game and its many nuances as they were the day it came out. While the brand new feeling that once pervaded the game may no longer be a presence, it’s replaced by a quality of time-tested experience.

One of the reasons Minecraft continues to improve and retain its staying power is because Mojang, who develops the title, is committed to keeping it up to date. There’s an update coming to the game very soon that addresses a number of issues, applying bug fixes to various facets of the game. This should improve the user experience by an even greater margin.

We’ve provided a snippet of the upcoming patch below, but we'd also urge you to hike on over to Mojang’s website to get the full picture:

  • [Bug MC-3] – Player facing changes when passing through nether portals.
  • [Bug MC-4] – Item Drops Sometimes Appear at the Wrong Location
  • [Bug MC-1607] – Ghost End Portal in The End / Missing layer with AMD/ATI graphics cards
  • [Bug MC-2545] – Persistant Chunk error / Corrupted world / Wrong location spam
  • [Bug MC-6594] – Non-living entities (boats, minecarts, fallingsand, item frames, paintings) drop items even if doTileDrops is set to false
  • [Bug MC-37782] – Items held by witches are too small and held wrongly
  • [Bug MC-58307] – Air bubbles appear after drowning and still dead
  • [Bug MC-59216] – Unable to build iron golem and snow golem with jack o'lantern
  • [Bug MC-59360] – Levers Pop Off Non-Solid Blocks
  • [Bug MC-61535] – Horse breeding: Foal looks just like an adult horse
  • [Bug MC-61844] – Creepers target Iron Golems, causing terrain damage without interaction of a player
  • [Bug MC-62140] – 2 block tall flowers generated in previous version removes the 2nd block
  • [Bug MC-62758] – Tall flowers drop two items when block below is broken
  • [Bug MC-63010] – Placing a Banner and breaking it in Survival causes them to not stack (as they have NBT data)
