Features and Bug Fixes

Blocks

  • Campfires can once again be stacked correctly (MCPE-159398)

Graphical

  • Please note: Due to an unexpected crashing issue we have had to temporarily revert the fix for MCPE-105487, which can cause the textures to turn pink after playing for long periods of time on a server
    • This means that this bug may continue to occur until we have a solution. Thank you for your patience while we continue to work on this important issue – we hope to have it finally fixed as soon as possible!
  • Fixed an issue with RTX on Windows where point lights were unintentionally accumulated for emissive blocks (MCPE-159485, MCPE-159488)

Items

  • Fixed a bug where Pistons sometimes did not drop the Piston item when broken by the arm (MCPE-158314)
  • Fixed a bug where Bows could fail to shoot an Arrow the first time they were used, this also affected Crossbows and with throwing Tridents (MCPE-159467)
