Minecraft 1.16 Pre-Release 1 (Fabulous Graphics Option)

Minecraft 1.16 Pre-Release 1 is here. A new Fabulous graphical option, more data pack support and big changes to neutral mobs including new gamerules.

Features:

• Added new “Fabulous” graphics option – uses per-pixel blending layers for some transparent elements.
• You can now milk Cows and Mooshrooms in creative mode.
• You can now get stew from Mooshrooms in creative mode.
• When you use an empty bucket on water in creative mode, you now get a bucket of water. If you have a bucket of water in your inventory already, no additional water buckets will be added when you use your empty bucket on water.
• When any villager is struck by lightning, the witch it is converted to will no longer despawn.
• Added gamerule universalAnger (disabled by default), which makes angered neutral mobs attack any nearby player, not just the player that angered them. Works best if you disable forgiveDeadPlayers.
• Added gamerule forgiveDeadPlayers (enabled by default), which makes angered neutral mobs stop being angry when the targeted player dies nearby.
• Zombified piglins no longer attack innocent bystanders (unless you enable gamerule universalAnger).
• Zombified piglins stop being angry if the targeted player dies nearby (unless you disable gamerule forgiveDeadPlayers).
• Smithing recipes can now be added or changed through data packs.
• Game will now detect critical datapack issues, like missing required tags and prevent world from being loaded.

Data pack selection:

• Data packs can now be selected before world is created.
• “Copy world” option will also copy data packs present in source world.

Pack selection screen:

• Packs can now be dropped directly on data and resource pack selection screens.
• Dropped files and directories will be copied to appropriate places.
