* Added support for misc\grasscolor.png and misc\foliagecolor.png images.

==Trivia==
* 
* Advanced OpenGL is enabled by default in this version. In Beta 1.6 Advanced OpenGL was removed temporarily until Beta 1.6.5 due to bugs.
** Advanced OpenGL will crash Minecraft on some computers.
* Picking up multiple stacks of items takes a few ticks to finish, unlike the final version where it only takes one.
* The fix for the crash when riding a vehicle or animal through a nether portal is done differently.
* Session requests are performed over HTTP instead of HTTPS.
** Session requests fail on any code other than HTTP 200, instead of only with HTTP 400.
* Connection to the server is closed differently; no thread is used in this build.
* GL state when rendering items is not properly reset, which may lead to graphical artifacts.
* Tall grass renders differently:
===Validity===
While modern versions of Minecraft are hosted on s3.amazonaws.com/Minecraft.Download, this version is hosted on s3.amazonaws.com/MinecraftDownload (without the period). At first it may seem that this site is not owned by Mojang Studios, but it can be verified as Mojang-owned in several ways:
*The legacy Minecraft launcher (from 2013) uses this site to update, which can be verified through a decompiler.
*Minecraft Classic was loaded from s3.amazonaws.com/MinecraftDownload/classic/minecraft.jar when it could still be accessed on minecraft.net.While the page for classic is no longer accessible, archived versions do include this link.
