Minecraft 1.20.3 Pre-Release 2 makes changes to the breezes abilities and adds new functionality to server resource packs.

In addition to bug fixes for Minecraft, 1.20.3 Pre-Release 1 makes a few technical adjustments to file storage, server configurations, resource packs for worlds, and resource packs/data packs got a small tweak of their own. Average players may not pay much attention to the more technical changes, but they’ve been implemented nonetheless.

Features:

  • The Data Pack version is now 26
  • The Resource Pack version is now 22
  • Changes to downloaded/world resource pack handling
  • Breeze wind charges now break decorated pots, chorus flowers, and pointed dripstone blocks upon collision

World Resource Packs:

Changes apply to world resource packs (resources.zip), Realms resource packs and resource packs controlled by dedicated servers.

UI

  • Download screen has been replaced with a toast
  • World resource pack application will start together with chunk loading

Local storage

  • Downloaded packs are now stored in downloads directory (with different file organization than old server-resource-packs)
    • Files in this directory are no longer automatically cleaned (previously only up 10 packs were kept)
    • Additionally, inside this directory there is also log file log.json that stores information about downloaded files for debug purposes

Server config

  • Downloaded packs now have unique id (GUID/UUID) that can be used to differentiate them
  • This value for dedicated server pack can be configured with resource-pack-id option in server.properties
  • If the value is missing, it will be generated based on URL
  • If hash of a pack is not set, this pack will be redownloaded before every application
    • Previously, if hash was missing, latest downloaded version of pack was applied

Packets

  • Some additional options are added for 3rd-party servers software:
    • Client can now accept multiple server resource packs
    • New packet was added to un-apply server resource packs
    • Resource packs are no longer cleaned when entering configuration phase
