Minecraft Java Edition 19w08b changelog

21 February 2019

CHANGES IN 19W08B

• Fixed a couple of crashes

CHANGES IN 19W08A

• One Iron Golem now spawns in all villages upon generation
• Improvements to invisibility to allow it to correctly work in many cases where it didn't but you'd expect it to
• Added Leather Horse Armor
• Textures for potion effects are now split into individual files
• Command parser now accepts ' as string quotes. Inside '-quoted string " is handled as normal character and requires no escaping (and vice-versa) - so now it's easier to input text components in NBT.
• Stopped foxes, dolphins, and pandas from having armor equipped onto them via dispenser
• Changed bounding box and eye height of foxes (prevents them from drowning when swimming)
• Foxes that trusted you in the previous snapshot will unfortunately no longer be trusting
