General
- Resource packs
- The required pack version number was changed to "3" in
pack.mcmeta
.- Version 3 resource packs have to use lowercase filenames for everything.
- Entity IDs, block entity IDs, block IDs and item IDs
- Now are no longer case sensitive.
- Autocomplete will put in lowercase letters.
- Entity and block entity IDs
- Use underscores to separate words, rather than using single words in mixed case.
- Optionally, a
minecraft:
namespace prefix can be used, just like block and item IDs. However, it is not optional for EntityTags and spawners. - There are still old entity IDs in the language files (example:
LavaSlime
instead ofmagma_cube
for the magma cube) and the new mobs in 1.11 have their ID with the old type (no underscores, capital letters for the beginning of the words. example:VindicationIllager
instead ofvindication_illager
for the vindicator.) - The following names have changed:
