1.7.9[1] is a minor update released on April 14, 2014,[2] to fix some further issues with skins in 1.7.8, and to improve the speed it converts names.[2] It is compatible with 1.7.61.7.8 servers.

Changes[edit | edit source]

General[edit | edit source]

Naming System
  • Improved name conversion speed.
Skin system
  • Added support for the new skin system.
  • Loosened restrictions so NPCs and similar are still possible for now.
  • Servers still have to send signed blobs to show skins, but there are no more timeout & "is it for this player" checks.

Fixes[edit | edit source]

4 issues fixed
From released versions before 1.8
  • MC-4812 – Piston arm graphical glitch in the End.
