Download Minecraft 1.4.4 - Swim Upwards, Bad packet id 249 Bugs Fixed

Posted in minecraft

The Minecraft 1.4.4 pre-release is now available to download. Again, it's another large collection of bug fixes including the unable to swim upwards bug and torches moving between walls. Download the latest jar file using the links below.

Mojang are still on the bug fixing offensive and so the snapshots have gone on hold for the immediate future. Mod developers will probably be pulling their hair out because of the amount of new versions but it's good to have fewer bugs.

Main issues fixed in 1.4.4



  • Unable to swim upwards because water current too strong
  • Torches moving between walls
  • L:inux uses not able to open LAN mode
  • 'seed' command not working on SMP
  • Flying squids
  • java.io.IOException. Bad packet id 249
  • Placing minecart on powered rail causes crash
  • Loading moved/deleted worlds causes crash
  • Disappearing mobs and items after player dies
