Brand new Minecraft Java Edition snapshot has released, this week we finally have some use for the Smithing table which has been in the game since the last major update. Below are all the features/changes but remember this is testing stage so things are subject to change.

MINECRAFT SNAPSHOT 20W10A

A Minecraft Java Snapshot

Today’s snapshot is loud! It comes with a bunch of new ambient sound that adds some really nice flavour to the Nether biomes. Apart from this, you now have to use the smithing table to craft Netherite. Happy mining!

NEW FEATURES IN 20W10A

  • Added crimson and warped hyphae – all-sided “stem” blocks including stripped variations
  • Use a smithing table to fuse the Netherite ingot with your diamond weapon/tool/armor
  • New ambient sounds for the Nether biomes

CHANGES IN 20W10A

  • Fish now despawn when further than 64 blocks away from the closest player
  • Hoes are now more like other tools used to break blocks
  • Updated the Netherite item textures

HOE CHANGES

We’ve made some changes to Hoes to make them more useful in the Nether.

  • Each tier has different speed at which Hoes mine blocks they are effective against
  • Hoes can now be enchanted with the following enchantments: Efficiency, Fortune, Silk Touch
  • Those enchantments can now be provided through the enchanting table.

TECHNICAL CHANGES IN 20W10A

ENTITY UUIDS

  • UUIDs of the owners of projectiles, such as arrows or snowballs, are now stored as an array of four integers. All UUIDs will be stored in this format in the future

NEW TAGS FOR ITEM FRAMES

  • Invisible – makes item frame invisible (item inside frame remains visible)
  • Fixed – prevents item frame from being broken and the item inside from being removed

TARGET_HIT ADVANCEMENT TRIGGER TYPE
