This week's snapshot is a small one, but it brings a fancy new splash screen! Start up the snapshot and you'll find out right away.

Changes in 19w06a

Added a new splash screen and slightly improved startup time

Updated LWJGL to 3.2.1

Particles are now broken up into individual textures rather than being in particles.png This breaks resource packs right now but we're working on a way to still be able to load old resource packs

Adjustments to the Wandering Trader

New optional tag for block items: BlockStateTag Contains map of block state properties to be overwritten after block is placed (note: item model is not affected).
