A new Minecraft Java 1.21.6 snapshot is here!

Summer is finally here in Stockholm on this fine Snapshot Tuesday – but it seems some of our developers missed those beautiful, gray, rainy skies far too much and absolutely insisted on giving the clouds in Minecraft a new look. What a de-light!

New Features

  • Updated the pattern of clouds in the sky
  • Horses, Donkeys, and Mules can now be fed carrots to heal, grow, and improve their temper

Music and Sound

  • Added a new sound for when a Lead snaps
  • Added new custom sounds for shearing Saddles, Horse Armor, and Carpets from Llamas

Technical Changes

  • The Data Pack version is now 78
  • The Resource Pack version is now 62

Data Pack Version 78

Dialogs

  • run_command click actions will now correctly close dialogs and book screens even if the command does not require elevated permissions
  • Dialogs should now correctly return to the previous non-dialog screen on close in all cases
  • If a new dialog is received by the client while warning screen is visible, it will not replace it, but when user clicks the “Back” button, the new dialog will be restored instead
  • The sizes of elements in dialogs are now restricted:
    • buttons – between 1 and 1024 (inclusive)
    • minecraft:plain_message dialog body – between 1 and 1024 (inclusive)
    • minecraft:item dialog body

    • height – height of input, optional integer in range 1 to 512
      • If this field is omitted, but max_lines is present, the height will be chosen to fit the maximum number of lines
      • If this and max_lines are both omitted, it will default to a height that fits 4 lines

minecraft:number_range Input Control

  • The steps field has been replaced with a new field:
    • step – step size, optional positive float
      • If present, only values of initial + <any integer> * step will be allowed
      • If absent, any value from range the is allowed
  • initial – if not specified, now defaults to the middle of the range

Minecraft 1.21.6 Snapshot 25w21a Memory Requirements & Player Slots

  • Memory Guideline
    To avoid lag or memory errors, order a minimum of 3GB of memory. If you are playing with friends or planning on hosting a public server consider ordering 4GB or more. You won't know your exact requirements until you start building and getting more players on. Don't worry you can quickly upgrade your memory as your server grows. Follow this guide if you need to upgrade.

  • Recommended Max Players is our best guess on how many slots gives good performance per GigaByte of memory. It relates to how many players can join before running into lag or out-of-memory errors. Newer servers with lots of mods/plugins will have less players per GB, you won't know exactly how many players until your server gets busy. You have Unlimited Slots, set this in the control panel, use your slots wisely. It's a guideline not set in bedrock!
