Minecraft Java Edition 1.21.9

The Minecraft Server Management Protocol has introduced a server management API using JSON-RPC over WebSocket for dedicated servers, which is initially disabled and can be activated via the server.properties file. The API allows querying and updating server states, including player information and game rules, and sends notifications about state changes. An API schema can be obtained through a specific method call, and the API adheres to JSON-RPC 2.0 specifications with namespaced methods. Clients must authenticate using a bearer token, and TLS is enabled by default for secure communication. Unsent chat messages are now saved as Chat Drafts if the chat closes unexpectedly, with an option to save drafts by default. A Code of Conduct screen is now mandatory upon connecting to a server, with a new boolean field in the server.properties file to enable it. Accessibility features include toggleable key binds and options for mouse settings, while performance improvements have been made to rendering and loading mechanics.

Minecraft Snapshot 25w35a

This week's update introduces a new Minecraft Server Management Protocol that allows real-time queries of player activity, adjustments to game rules, and updates to server settings. Several server properties have been transitioned into game rules, enabling modifications while the server is operational. Players can now use player icons in chat, and the copper golem has received enhancements along with various bug fixes. New features include support for the Halychian language. Changes to recipes now require Hanging Signs to be crafted exclusively with Iron Chains. The server list requires manual entry for new server names, and enhanced text input functionality allows text selection via mouse dragging. UI components will change the mouse cursor shape for better interaction, with a hand-shaped cursor for clickable text labels. Minor tweaks include adjustments to the hitbox of Copper Golems, which is now 0.98 blocks in height, and improvements to their functionality. The Data Pack version has been updated to 85.0, and the Resource Pack version is now at 67.0. Server properties have been streamlined, removing several in favor of game rules, including allow-nether, spawn-monsters, enable-command-block, and pvp. New server properties have been introduced to control the new protocol, including management-server-enabled, management-server-port, management-server-host, and status-heartbeat-interval. The new Minecraft Server Management Protocol is designed for dedicated servers, supporting querying and updating server state, notifying users of state changes, and complying with JSON-RPC 2.0 specifications. New game rules include pvp, allowEnteringNetherUsingPortals, spawnMonsters, and enableCommandBlocks. The text rendering component has been enhanced to support non-character objects within text, with new formats for object types. The chain has been renamed to iron_chain in both Data and Resource Packs. A comprehensive list of bugs has been fixed to enhance gameplay stability and performance. Snapshots are available for Minecraft: Java Edition, and users are advised to back up their worlds before installation.

Another blow to Windows 11’s Control Panel as Microsoft pushes more settings migrations

Microsoft is transitioning mouse settings from the Control Panel to the Settings app in Windows 11. Recent updates in the Dev and Beta builds have moved options like pointer trails and hiding the pointer while typing to the Accessibility page in the Settings app. This change simplifies access to mouse customization options for users. Similar features were previously available in the Windows Server Preview Build 26376. To enable these new mouse settings in the latest builds, users must use ViveTool to activate id:54273186 and restart their PC for the changes to take effect.

Hidden clues suggest Microsoft is moving another part of Windows 11’s Control Panel to the Settings app – and this time it’s mouse options

Microsoft is transitioning mouse options from the Control Panel to the Settings app as part of a strategy to phase out the Control Panel in Windows operating systems. Currently, these changes are not visible in Windows 11 and are only present in the Windows Server environment. The relocated mouse properties include features like pointer trails and customization options, which are now found under Accessibility and Bluetooth & Devices in the Settings app. The visual presentation of these options in the Settings app is more polished compared to the Control Panel. This migration has been ongoing since 2020, with the Control Panel gradually redirecting users to the Settings app. Despite this transition, the Control Panel is unlikely to be completely retired in the near future due to the complexity of determining which features to retain.

Windows 11 will give you another reason to ditch Control Panel, migrates mouse settings

The Settings app in Windows 11 has been evolving over the past four years, with features migrating to a centralized hub. The latest Windows Server Build 26376 introduces new mouse properties, indicating changes for upcoming Windows 11 versions 24H2 and 23H2. These mouse-related settings, previously in the legacy Mouse properties applet, are now integrated into the Settings app but are spread across different sections. Features like Mouse Pointer Trails and customization options are found in the Accessibility section, while hover actions and button configurations are in the Mouse page under Accessibility. The Devices page retains similar options with enhancements. While the integration simplifies navigation by eliminating the need for separate applications, the fragmentation of settings may complicate the user experience for those preferring a consolidated view. Microsoft aims to reduce reliance on the Control Panel in future updates, though excessive changes could lead users back to it.
