1.17 Pre-release 3 (known as 1.17-pre3 in the launcher) is the third pre-release for Java Edition 1.17, released on June 1, 2021,[1] which fixed bugs and crashes, as well as tweaking the lit candle textures.

Changes[edit | edit source]

Blocks[edit | edit source]

Candles

  • Tweaked the textures of lit candles.

Glow lichen

  • If attached to no sides of a block (by setting all directional block states to false), glow lichen now renders as if attached to all sides and no longer emits light.

Mobs[edit | edit source]

Goats

  • Mobs rammed by goats no longer retaliate.

Axolotls and glow squids

  • Now only spawn in total darkness and where there's a block with base_stone_overworld tag (i.e. stone, deepslate, andesite, diorite, granite or tuff) less than 5 blocks below the spawning space.

Gameplay[edit | edit source]

Advancements

  • Changed the description of the advancement "Wax On" from "Apply Wax to a Copper block!" to "Apply Honeycomb to a Copper block!".
