Display hardcore heart textures when a world is in hardcore mode,
matching Java Edition behavior. Hearts switch between normal/hardcore
across all states (poison, wither, flash) and all HUD resolutions.
C++ changes:
- IUIScene_HUD: check isHardcore() and call SetHardcoreMode() each tick
- UIScene_HUD: send hardcore boolean to Flash via Iggy, invalidate
SetHealth dirty check on state change to force heart redraw
- CreateWorldMenu/LoadMenu: lock game mode to Survival when hardcore
- MinecraftServer: gate server.properties hardcore override behind
MINECRAFT_SERVER_BUILD so offline worlds preserve their saved flag
SWF changes (via new Java tools):
- AddHardcoreBitmaps: adds 10 hardcore heart bitmaps to graphics SWFs
- AddHardcoreHearts: adds 10 new frames (15-24) to health sprite
- PatchHudABC: patches HUD ActionScript bytecode with SetHardcore
method and frame offset logic (+14 normal/poison, +6 wither)
Also updates README changelog styling with consistent ### headings.
## Description
Fix issue where typing in a short seed on world creation doesn't save the seed correctly
## Changes
### Previous Behavior
Typing in a seed on the world creation menu that's less than 8 characters long will result in garbage data being saved as the seed. Happens with controller and KBM.
You can see this in-game - if you exit the world options menu and go back in, the seed will show up as boxes □□□.
Weirdly, if you type a seed again, it behaves as expected.
### Root Cause
For some reason, assigning `m_params->seed` to the seed text points it to garbage data, when it's 7 characters or less.
### New Behavior
Seed entry behaves as expected.
### Fix Implementation
- Added `static_cast<wstring>` before assignment to `m_params->seed`.
- Also replaced `(wchar_t *)` with `reinterpret_cast<wchar_t*>` in the functions.

Move screenshot capture from Minecraft::tick() (which requires an
active player) to the Windows64 main loop alongside other global
key handlers (F1/F3/F11). F2 now works from the main menu, pause
menu, settings, inventory, crafting, and all other screens. Chat
message still shown when in-game.
Replace the 80% scaled approach with full-size logo bitmaps and
shift the ComponentLogo SWF placements up by 10px (proportionally
scaled for lower resolutions) to avoid occlusion by the load/join
menu. Add ShiftLogo.java tool for adjusting SWF placement offsets.
Replace MenuTitle and MenuTitleSmall bitmaps in skinHDWin.swf and
skinWin.swf with the custom LCRE (Legacy Console Edition Revelations)
logo, scaled to 80% within the original bitmap canvas to avoid
occlusion by the load/join menu.
Add ReplaceLogo.java and ExtractFromArc.java tools for SWF bitmap
replacement and arc file extraction. Keep original arc as .bak.
Use crazy-max/ghaction-import-gpg to sign Nightly and
Nightly-Dedicated-Server tags with a GPG key so releases
show the green Verified badge on GitHub.
Replace andelf/nightly-release with gh CLI commands that create tags
via the GitHub API, which auto-signs them with the github-actions bot
key for the green Verified badge.
Use capitalized tags (Nightly, Nightly-Dedicated-Server) to match
existing releases. Restore full client release body with instructions,
multiplayer setup, and fork explanation.
Merge client and server nightly releases into a single workflow.
Add artifact attestation for signed builds. Use CMake instead of
MSBuild. Preserve LCRE naming, top-level zip folders, and commit
hash release titles.
* Add clang-format workflow for pull request checks
* Modify push paths in nightly workflow
Updated paths for push event to include all files except specified ones.
* Update paths for nightly-server workflow triggers
* Modify paths for pull request triggers
Update pull request workflow to include specific paths.
* Tidy up clang-format installation in workflow
Replace the XOR obfuscation cipher with AES-128-CTR using the Windows
BCrypt API. Key material grows from 16 to 32 bytes (16 AES key + 16 IV).
All callers auto-adjust via StreamCipher::KEY_SIZE. No handshake or
protocol changes needed beyond the larger MC|CKey payload.
Comprehensive security system to protect against packet-sniffing attacks,
XUID harvesting, privilege escalation, bot flooding, and XUID impersonation.
- Stream cipher: per-session XOR cipher with 4-message handshake via
CustomPayloadPacket (MC|CKey, MC|CAck, MC|COn). Negotiated per-connection,
backwards compatible (old clients/servers fall back to plaintext).
- Security gate: buffers all game data until cipher handshake completes,
preventing unsecured clients from receiving any XUIDs or game state.
- Cipher handshake enforcer: kicks clients that don't complete the handshake
within 5 seconds (configurable via require-secure-client).
- Identity tokens: persistent per-XUID tokens in identity-tokens.json,
issued over the encrypted channel, verified on reconnect. Prevents XUID
replay attacks. Client stores server-specific tokens.
- PROXY protocol v1: parses real client IPs from playit.gg tunnel headers
so rate limiting, IP bans, and XUID spoof detection work per-player.
- Rate limiting: per-IP sliding window (default 5 connections/30s) with
pending connection cap (default 10).
- Privilege hardening: OP requires ops.json, live checks on every command
and privilege packet. Host-only server settings changes.
- XUID stripping: PreLoginPacket response sends INVALID_XUID placeholders.
- Packet validation: readUtf global string cap, reduced max packet size,
stream desync protection on oversized strings.
- OpManager: persistent ops.json with XUID-based OP list.
- Whitelist improvements: whitelist add accepts player names with ambiguity
detection, XUID cache from login attempts.
- revoketoken command: revoke identity tokens for players who lost theirs.
- server.log: persistent log file written alongside console output with
flush-per-write to survive crashes.
- CLI security logging: consolidated per-join security summary with cipher
status, token status, XUID, and real IP. Security warnings for kicks,
spoofing, and unauthorized commands.
* Fix game crashing if DLC has XMLVERSION paramater
* Better implementation of XMLVersion check
* Forgot to add type name to the list
* Removed extra newline
Players now appear in each other's Tab list immediately on join,
regardless of render distance. Previously, players only appeared when
they entered entity tracking range because AddPlayerPacket was only
sent through the TrackedEntity system.
On disconnect, a RemoveEntitiesPacket is broadcast to all clients so
players added via the join broadcast are properly cleaned up, not just
those within tracking range.
The tab player list and teleport menu now show the correct map marker
color for each player. The icon is computed using the same hash as the
map renderer (getRandomPlayerMapIcon) and stored by player name,
bypassing the unreliable small-ID lookup that produced wrong colors
on dedicated servers.
Dragon melee damage: reassign sub-entity IDs to be sequential from
the parent entity ID in ServerLevel::entityAdded(), so the client's
offset-based ID calculation matches the server. Previously the server's
smallId pool allocated non-sequential IDs, causing melee attacks to
target entity IDs the server didn't recognize.
End portal transition: ensure the player entity is always added to the
new level when transitioning from The End, not just for non-End
dimensions. The addEntity call was previously gated behind a
lastDimension != 1 check that also excluded it from End exits.
End Poem crash: bounds-check the WIN_GAME event's player index before
accessing localplayers[], with a fallback to prevent null dereference
when the server sends an out-of-range index.
Register remote players in the client's IQNet array when their
AddPlayerPacket arrives, so they appear in the Tab player list.
Previously only the host and local player were registered.
Also filter the dedicated server's phantom host entry (slot 0, empty
gamertag) from the UI, fix tick() to update entries by smallId instead
of sequential index, and fix player removal to use gamertag matching
since XUIDs are 0 on dedicated servers.
Resolve _minecraft._tcp.<hostname> SRV records before connecting,
matching Java Edition behavior. Players can connect using just a domain
name and the client will look up the actual server address and port
from DNS. Falls back to the original hostname/port if no SRV record
exists or the address is a numeric IP.
triggerEvent() set ignoreUpdate to true at the start but three early
return paths skipped the reset at the end. Once any of these paths was
hit, the TLS flag stayed true permanently, blocking all piston neighbor
updates for the rest of the server session.
Replace the boolean-flag-based async join system with a clean state machine
(eJoinState enum) and move connection progress handling from UIScene_JoinMenu
into UIScene_ConnectingProgress as a dedicated UI class.
Combines the best of two approaches: non-blocking sockets with select()
timeout and SO_RCVTIMEO clearing (prevents random disconnects) with the
upstream's state enum, FinalizeJoin separation, and ConnectingProgress UI.
JoinGame() now returns JOINGAME_PENDING on Win64, and
PlatformNetworkManagerStub::DoWork() polls the join state to finalize
the connection when the background thread succeeds.
triggerEvent() set ignoreUpdate to true at the start but three early
return paths (lines 221, 225, 250) skipped the reset at the end. Once
any of these paths was hit (common with fast redstone clocks where the
signal state changes between event queuing and processing), the TLS
flag stayed true permanently, blocking all piston neighbor updates for
the rest of the server session.
Clear the 5-second SO_RCVTIMEO that was set during the connection
handshake but never removed. The timeout persisted into the game
session, causing the client to disconnect whenever the server paused
for longer than 5 seconds (e.g. autosave, chunk I/O).
Also update README with chunk unloading and connection stability fixes.
Commit a24318ee changed drop() to immediately remove chunks from cache,
bypassing the deferred m_toDrop save/unload pipeline. This caused missing
chunks on dedicated servers, iterator invalidation in dropAll() and
ServerLevel::save(), and entity duplication (item frames) from chunks
being reloaded without their entities first being removed from the level.
- ServerChunkCache::drop(): restore m_toDrop queue instead of immediate
cache removal, so tick() can save/unload/move to unloadedCache safely
- MultiPlayerChunkCache::drop(): restore soft-unload (keep chunk in cache
with loaded=true) instead of nulling cache and hasData
- PlayerChunkMap::setRadius(): remove dropAll() call when reducing radius,
the per-chunk removal loop already handles out-of-range chunks
