Java Edition 1.7.6

1.7.6 is a minor update to Minecraft () that was released on April 9, 2014, which implemented a new player skin system and support for player name changing. It is incompatible with 1.7.2–1.7.5 servers. It was replaced the same day by 1.7.7 to fix a major bug, and then again the next week by 1.7.8 and 1.7.9.
== Changes ==
=== General ===
; Minecraft Realms
* Improved 'configure' screen.
** Can now OP players from the config screen.
** Easier to invite and uninvite players.
** New button to close and unclose realm.
; Name changing
* Support for name changing.
** Only the support for changing names, actually being able to change name came on February 4, 2015.
; Options
* The server resource packs option is now per-server, and has three settings: prompt, enabled, and disabled.
* The minimum setting for the FOV option is now 30 instead of 70.
; Skins
* Skins and capes are now distributed through servers.
* Skins server outages will occur less frequently and have less impact.
* Skin changes will no longer require client restarting, at worst re-logging will update the skin for everybody.
* Server-altered skins and capes are not possible - only signed URLs are stored server-side.
* Duplicate skins no longer need to be downloaded twice.
* Server traffic will barely be affected.
== Fixes ==
== Reupload ==
The json date is 18 minutes before our jar.
== Trivia ==
* As a result of the old skin server being shut down, 1.7.6 is the oldest version of the game where skins still work without the use of modifications or third-party programs.
* 1.7.6 is the first version since 1.0.0 to use explicit pre-release labeling.
* 1.7.6 is the first version to use the "-pre" notation for pre-releases.
