3.8.12-RC2-b472

Release for CraftBukkit 1.4.7, (1.4.6, 1.4.5, 1.4.2). This version is compatible with CraftBukkit 1.4.7-R1.0, should be compatible with 1.4.6 and might be compatible down to 1.4.2.

Minecraft 1.5
This version appears to be compatible with Minecraft 1.5 - however some checks will work with reduced accuracy/features due to missing obc/nms access.

3.8.12-RC2-b472 mainly contains bugfixes and additions to configurability, preparations for Minecraft 1.5.

• Attempt to fix occasional exception with the InventoryClickEvent.

For a more detailed change history see the build-info page for :

• Build 472

(3.8.12-RC-b471)

• Re-code inventory.fastclick. Likely it is more forgiving on first glance and we might need to add specialized tool/weapon/food checks later, however it allows better control over limits, rudimentary support for some 1.5 inventory issues/features.
• Fix passable ray-tracing not respecting the block-flags.
• Add an example entry for overriding block-flags (doing nothing). Snow levels might not work on 1.4.7 servers with hackish 1.5-protocol support, which can be part-fixed by setting the flags for snow to ground+solid+height_8_inc.

For a more detailed change history see the build-info page for :

• Build 470

(3.8.11-RC-b467) Big topics:

• Velocity handling (horizontal)
• On-ground judgement, bounding boxes, block-collision logic.
• "Blind" support for 1.5 blocks, without being able to test them.
  This is an attempt to make the new blocks at least "playable" with the "bukkit-api-only" compatibility module in use. Allow walking on/through new blocks. Breaking times are not adjusted, i.e. new blocks are instantly breakable by default. This is no guarantee that this version can actually work with a CraftBukkit version for Minecraft 1.5, since any kind of changes to the client or server logic can still affect NCP in unforseeable ways.

OtherTopics:

• Adaptions to fight.direction / reach / combined.improbable.
• Consistency/performance (mild changes).

For a more detailed change history see the build-info page for :

An overview might get added, otherwise have a look at the changes lists at either the build-info-page, Jenkins or GitHub.

The documentation on the BukkitDev pages will need a bit of updating.
Consider having a look at the pages describing the configuration, including the dev pinboard. In case of trouble, make a support ticket or ask/complain on the main page.

Users of mcMMO, Citizens, MachinaCraft should consider using CompatNoCheatPlus as well to make most features compatible.
