Ladies and gentlemen we got two pre-releases today and even then this video is going to be very quick, because the technical changes aren’t too many. If you want the gameplay changes, check out my video linked here. Anyway, my name is slicedlime, let’s dive in to the technical changes in pre-release 3 and 4 for Minecraft 1.18 starting with the server. Running the server jar with a custom main class but leaving the name of the class empty will now validate and extract the library files, but then do nothing and quit. The directory structure has also changed, so the server-side paths where things are Extracted now match the client-side directory structure. For custom worlds, some small changes too. A performance optimization has been made for features and biome checking, which means if you have lots of different features for different biomes you can expect a good speedup in this version. There’s also one small format update: the glow_lichen feature’s can_be_placed_on field is now a list of blocks rather than a list of block states. And that’s it for this time. My name is slicedlime, I hope you found this video useful despite its short length. I’ll see you next time – and here’s something to tide you over until then. Video Information

Change Highlights in this version: Server: – Starting `server.jar` with an empty `bundlerMainClass` will now just validate and extract files, then exit – Fixed MC-241352: Directory structure is not consistent between server and client
Custom Worlds: – Fixed MC-239950: Feature placement doesn’t check for biomes, causing unnecessary lag – glow_lichen feature can_be_placed_on field is now a list of blocks rather than block states
