I went wandering far away in a new worlds and made a little shelter with a bed and slept though the night. Then I killed myself to see if the new spawn worked and I ended up back in my original spawn. There was a creeper explosion so I'm not sure if the bed survived but I have no clue where it is. =P

If you want to update but still be able to play on the servers while the are still on the previous version you will need to make a copy of "bin" folder that is in the ".minecraft" folder before you update.
Once you update and want to downgrade you can replace all the files in the "bin" folder with the files from the copied "bin" folder except the "version" file and you should be good to go.
Then once you want to update again you just delete the "version" file in the "bin" folder and it should update.
If you have already upgraded you will have to find a way to get the previous version "bin" files to downgrade with.

Yeah just tested it out myself and it didn't work for me either. Slept in my bed in my main base then killed myself, and spawned at my original spawn point.

Had my first real, long, session with this game today. It's quite fun. Generated a random map and found a hill and started digging. Half-way through making what I thought to be a living room I got bored and dug a 1x1 hole straight down. I only stopped when I heard the sound of water.
After caving out an area and finally locating the water I uncovered a cavern. I dug out a pretty nice place to live. Only when my wood supply was starting to run low and realized I had a mile and a half to the surface. So, the march upward started. When the last pick was spent I had atleast reached a patch of dirt. Was able to punch my way the last couple of yards until I saw sunlight again.
Hunted some animals, chopped some wood, and returned back down and cleaned up the path back down. And when I get home again from work I plan on building doors on the two enterances (who by pure chance are located a stone's throw away from eachother) and an 8x8 hole down to my new living room. Will post a few pictures when I'm done decorating.

Yep, also tried it by creating a new bed and dumping that in a random spot. Still didn't work.

I found some cocoa dye in a dungeon, so it's possible to get brown dye now. Not sure if it's just from dungeons though.
Finally found my first wolf too:
Found another right after that one, though finding them in the forest at night didn't work out to well. One got blown up by a creeper D:

Poked around for a little bit, and it seems that Wolves spawn more often (if not exclusively) in snowy areas. Wandered around my main world for a bit, where there's no snow (this is a map from pre-biome times), and then generated a new world, both wolf-free. However, I found a pack of six or so wolves in the first snow biome I came across.

I think there are no new textures in terrain.png except for cocoa beans.
Edit: What am I talking about, lol. Cocoa beans & cookies in items.png. And the wolf texture but you're right, it'll just use the default if the pack doesn't have one.

Got my pet wolf
No. The way texture packs work is each mob has its own image. If the pack doesn't include a custom texture for one or two, it will just use the default.Rapstah said:
The only things you have to be concerned with in updates are blocks, inventory items and GUI changes. I assume there's no new blocks this time? And only cocoa beans? Then it won't be a big deal to use my Painterly until they add cocoa to it. Since I probably won't find any, and brown sheep (They do exist, right?) are just colorized grey/white textured ones.

Have a bone equiped in your hand and right-click on the wolf to feed it to him. A few should be enough. Once he's tamed, right-click on him to get him to sit/stay. Feed him raw pork chops to replenish his health. Apparently bread harms them, so don't feed them that.
Someone on the minecraft forums found this in the code
Looks like a 5 day demo is on the way
Locking chests
UI scale
Ive actually been hoping they would let me shrink the UI. Demo will be awesome for those still not sold on the game as well.
Code:
demo.day.1=This demo will last five game days, do your best!
demo.day.2=Day Two
demo.day.3=Day Three
demo.day.4=Day Four
demo.day.5=This is your last day!
demo.day.warning=Your time is almost up!
demo.day.6=You have passed your fifth day, use F2 to save a screenshot of your creation
demo.reminder=The demo time has expired, buy the game to continue or start a new world!
demo.help.movement=Use %1$s, %2$s, %3$s, %4$s and the mouse to move around
demo.help.jump=Jump by pressing %1$s
demo.help.inventory=Use %1$s to open your inventoryLooks like a 5 day demo is on the way
Code:
tile.lockedchest.name=Locked chest
tile.lockedchest.desc=
Code:
options.guiScale=GUI Scale
options.guiScale.auto=Auto
options.guiScale.small=Small
options.guiScale.normal=Normal
options.guiScale.large=LargeIve actually been hoping they would let me shrink the UI. Demo will be awesome for those still not sold on the game as well.

sad face... I wish they would just back up the map and not bother with the anti-griefing for the time being. It's just a game.

Game still feels horrifically beta to me, to a point where I've lost most of my desire to play the game. I was so excited when I first got into the game, was having a lot of fun, and some of the things I heard that were being talked about as coming in the future sounded awesome. Since that point, though, for me personally, almost every addition has felt like a way to hide the fact that actual, deep gaming improvements are few and far between.
I guess, it's like, at the point that I came in, there seemed to be a LOT of stuff that promised huge depth to what you'd be able to build and create. Wow, this redstone stuff is interesting, and will be awesome once it's properly developed. Hacking these minecarts to work in ways they can't yet is fun for now, but I can't wait until there's a real system for doing this stuff. Going down into randomly-created dungeons is a lot of fun, but I've already come to realize that I'm just doing so to get the same few rare blocks that are of little value to me. I can't wait until real reasons to do so come about.
And now I keep hearing all this talk about "the single player is pretty much complete" and whatnot and I'm now totally soured on the game. Almost to a point, in fact, where I feel dumb for having paid for it. That's probably totally my fault, and I'll admit that, but the feeling I had that the game was progressing in interesting ways back at that point is now all but gone for me.
And the fact that I lost my snowfall for these half-assed biomes still pisses me off to this day.
