Swimming Bird – Minecraft 1.8 Pre-Release: Skinny Player Arms Model, Alex Default Thin Skin, Killer Bunny, Release

Hey guys it’s adam ak’s swimming bird and welcome to the minecraft version 1.8 pre-release this is one of the last snapshot built before the 1.8 Update finally hits and he could probably tell just from looking at me that there are some surprising new features to talk

About so I’ve been dieting but I skipped arm day at the gym one too many times and this is what happens now this is the new player model option with smaller 3 pixel wide arms that Jeb teased a few weeks back I liked the more proportional

Arms but they do make Armour look even more bulky than before now there’s a bit of confusion about this new model ultimately the plan is that you will have a choice on your minecraft.net profile to switch between these new thin arms and the 4 pixel wide ones were used

To sort of like how you’d switch out your skin and speaking of skins there’s actually a new skin by Mojang to show off that thinner arm look this is Alex and she could basically be the female equivalent to Steve but also it seems to follow notches established idea where the

Inhabitants of minecraft you have both male and female traits that’s why we have stuff like dairy cows with both horns and utters chickens that look like roosters but still lay eggs and how any animal can breed with any other of the same species so maybe that’s why we see

This long hair which could equally be inspired by Jeb’s own magnificent ponytail and a tunic that anyone could wear stuff like that even the name Alex could be male or female and although Steve was kind of a throwaway name that notch gave the default player skin he

Did comment in the past that Steve is supposed to represent a generic human being what do you guys think about Alex currently if you don’t have a custom skin on your randomly assigned either a Steve or Alex default skin and right now it’s pretty glitchy as many users are

Getting the thinner arm model on accident like I did and this will hopefully be cleared up soon before 1.8 is out speaking of which we now have a firm release date 1.8 the bountiful update comes out Tuesday September 2nd now there’s a few other changes I wanted

To talk about when you’re flying and you hit the sprint button you actually fly quite a bit faster now than used to when you would sprint when you’re in the air the killer bunny that we all know and love now is received yet another text to change

This time the ears are a bit darker the eyebrows are more pronounced in gray looking and it cleaned up all the blood on its coat good for him I’m very mixed still on the look of this guy though I loved how the more subtle older texture made it tougher to distinguish the

Killer bunny from a harmless white rabbit but what I don’t like about this one I think is that the eyes are more horizontal while all the other rabbits have vertical eyes I get why they might wanted to make it a little easier to spot this guy in the wild from afar but

I thought the coolest part about this mob was that it might strike without you knowing it’s even there who knows maybe we’ll see a fifth texture in the future let me know what you guys think of the killer bunny there’s always resource packs of course

If you don’t like the look of it a few quick bug changes before we get going shears now lose durability when used on wool blocks baby zombie pigmen will now eventually forgive you if you attack their species they kind of remembered and held a grudge before slimes no

Longer appear for a half second on peaceful mobs will now spawn in certain block Heights that they couldn’t before because of a glitch mushrooms no longer spawn in deserts slimes ironically couldn’t jump on slime blocks in the past but now they can and any bone meal

Used on fully grown crops or shot from a dispenser with no crops to grow nearby will no longer be used up so you can save some of your bone meal thank you guys so much for watching please leave a like if you enjoyed this and if you want
