64-bit value split in to three parts
 
 
 
* x: 26 MSBs
 
* z: 26 {{change|LSBs|middle bits}}
 
* y: 12 {{change|bits between them|LSBs}}
 
 
 
Encoded as followed:
 
 
 
((x & 0x3FFFFFF) << 38) | {{change|((y & 0xFFF) << 26) {{!}} (z & 0x3FFFFFF)|((z & 0x3FFFFFF) << 12) {{!}} (y & 0xFFF)}}
 
 
 
And decoded as:
 
 
 
val = read_unsigned_long();
 
x = val >> 38;
 
y = {{change|(val >> 26) & 0xFFF|val & 0xFFF}};
 
z = {{change|val << 38 >> 38|(val << 38 >> 38) >> 12}};
 
 
 
Note: The details of bit shifting are rather language dependent; the above may work in Java but probably won't in other languages without some tweaking. In particular, you will usually receive positive numbers even if the actual coordinates are negative. This can be fixed by adding something like the following:
 
 
 
if x >= 2^25 { x -= 2^26 }
 
if y >= 2^11 { y -= 2^12 }
 
if z >= 2^25 { z -= 2^26 }

{{Main|Chunk Format}}
 
{{See also|#Unload Chunk}}
 
 
 
The server only sends skylight information for chunk pillars in the {{Minecraft Wiki|Overworld}}, it's up to the client to know in which dimenison the player is currently located. You can also infer this information from the primary bitmask and the amount of uncompressed bytes sent.  This packet also sends all block entities in the chunk (though sending them is not required; it is still legal to send them with [[#Update Block Entity|Update Block Entity]] later).

Within flags:

* 0x01: Is ambient - was the effect spawned from a beacon?  All beacon-generated effects are ambient.  Ambient effects use a different icon in the HUD (blue border rather than gray).  If all effects on an entity are ambient, the [[Entity_metadata#Living Entity|"Is potion effect ambient" living metadata field]] should be set to true.  Usually should not be enabled.
 +
* 0x02: Show particles - should all particles from this effect be hidden?  Effects with particles hidden are not included in the calculation of the effect color, and are not rendered on the HUD (but are still rendered within the inventory).  Usually should be enabled.
 +
* 0x04: Show icon - should the icon be displayed on the client?  Usually should be enabled.
 +
* {{change||0x08: Blend - should the effect's hard-coded blending be applied?  Currently only used in the DARKNESS effect to apply extra void fog and adjust the gamma value for lighting.}}

This page documents the changes from the last stable Minecraft release (currently 1.20.4, protocol 765) to the current pre-release (currently 24w13a, protocol Snapshot 182). Note that this page contains bleeding-edge information that may not be completely or correctly documented.

One who wishes to commandeer the merging of this into Protocol when an update is made must be sure to respect any changes that may have occurred to the respective packets there.

Portal cooldown VarInt The number of ticks until the player can use the portal again.
Data kept Byte Bit mask. 0x01: Keep attributes, 0x02: Keep metadata. Tells which data should be kept on the client side once the player has respawned.

In the Notchian implementation, this is context dependent:

  • normal respawns (after death) keep no data;
  • exiting the end poem/credits keeps the attributes;
  • other dimension changes (portals or teleports) keep all data.

Modifier Data structure:

Field Name Field Type Notes
UUID UUID
Amount Double May be positive or negative.
Operation Byte See below.

The operation controls how the base value of the modifier is changed.

  • 0: Add/subtract amount
  • 1: Add/subtract amount percent of the current value
  • 2: Multiply by amount percent

All of the 0's are applied first, and then the 1's, and then the 2's.

Has Factor Data Boolean Used in DARKNESS effect

Huh.png The following information needs to be added to this page:
What exact effect does the blend bit flag have on the client? What happens if it is used on effects besides DARKNESS?

Within flags:

  • 0x01: Is ambient - was the effect spawned from a beacon? All beacon-generated effects are ambient. Ambient effects use a different icon in the HUD (blue border rather than gray). If all effects on an entity are ambient, the "Is potion effect ambient" living metadata field should be set to true. Usually should not be enabled.
  • 0x02: Show particles - should all particles from this effect be hidden? Effects with particles hidden are not included in the calculation of the effect color, and are not rendered on the HUD (but are still rendered within the inventory). Usually should be enabled.
  • 0x04: Show icon - should the icon be displayed on the client? Usually should be enabled.
  • 0x08: Blend - should the effect's hard-coded blending be applied? Currently only used in the DARKNESS effect to apply extra void fog and adjust the gamma value for lighting.
