September 13, 2011 at 6:00 PMHey, Just wanted to note that the Stone Brick steps leave a shade on the blocks that are next to them and makes it not aesthetically pleasing to the eye… I;m sure its just a pre release bug but in case it hasnt been mentioned yet… there it is. Love the new lighting system and want to know if players in SMP will be able to actually lock their own chests without the need for an addon?

Seems like the update only held it back for about an hour. Though I have no idea how that could even happen without me changing the jar file.
