Patch Notes - July 16, 2015

[Ava]

​

Welcome to the sixth installment of the Patch Notes! This update covers most publicly visible changes between June 1 and July 16, 2015. Not every single change will be included on this biweekly update post - during a typical development cycle, we make several internal changes to the codebase, and the details of those internal changes are usually irrelevant to players. The biweekly Patch Notes includes most of our publicly visible changes.

New Features
Summer Update - 1.7, Refocusing, and More!
Last month, we released our Summer Update, bringing many features that have been long requested, including the return of Minecraft 1.7 support (yes, that's the big update we've been teasing in the past few Patch Notes). There's a lot of other things we added in this update, so rather than making this post super long, click here to view the update post.

Solo SG update!
One of the things we originally announced in the Summer Update thread (see above) is Solo SG, and we're happy to announce a tentative release date! Solo SG will be released by the end of July. We'll post a thread with more details and an exact date when we get closer to release.

Turkish Swear Filter
As part of our continuing effort to cater to players who speak languages other than English, we've updated the swear filter with several common Turkish swear words. We hope to add swear words from other languages to the filter as well.

Bug Fixes

• Fix some points exploits in Survival Games
• Fix several bugs that were introduced due to the re-addition of 1.7 support
• Fix occasional crashes when returning to hub or connecting to the network
• Fix bug that allowed for infinite enchantments
• Tweak XAC to be a bit more accurate
• Removed Herobrine
