We're bringing you the first Pre-Release of 1.20.3 with updates to server resource pack handling and bug fixes!
Technical Changes
- The Data Pack version is now 26
- The Resource Pack version is now 22
- Changes to downloaded/world resource pack handling
World resource packs
Changes apply to world resource packs (resources.zip), Realms resource packs and resource packs controlled by dedicated servers.
UI
- Download screen has been replaced with a toast
- World resource pack application will start together with chunk loading
Local storage
Downloaded packs are now stored in downloads directory (with different file organization than old server-resource-packs)
- Files in this directory are no longer automatically cleaned (previously only up 10 packs were kept)
- Additionally, inside this directory there is also log file log.json that stores information about downloaded files for debug purposes
Server config
Downloaded packs now have unique id (GUID/UUID) that can be used to differentiate them
- This value for dedicated server pack can be configured with resource-pack-id option in server.properties
- If the value is missing, it will be generated based on URL
- If hash of a pack is not set, this pack will be redownloaded before every application
- Previously, if hash was missing, latest downloaded version of pack was applied
Packets
Some additional options are added for 3rd-party servers software:
- Client can now accept multiple server resource packs
- New packet was added to un-apply server resource packs
- Resource packs are no longer cleaned when entering configuration phase
Data Pack Version 26
- Renamed minecraft:grass block and item to minecraft:short_grass
Resource Pack Version 22
- Renamed minecraft:grass block and item to minecraft:short_grass
