Minecraft PE 1.16.200.53

Last week all our subscribers had the opportunity to find out about some new features in Minecraft PE 1.16.200.52, two of the best being the introduction of goats and powdered snow. This week we will learn about Minecraft PE 1.16.200.53, a beta bringing even more changes in addition to the traditional bugfixes.

In this beta, you will discover some new useful options regarding the game’s sound volume. Now the player will be able to manage the sound volume of different categories, for example, the weather, the blocks, and more (see picture below).

In addition to this useful opportunity, the MCPE developers also enabled a Ray Tracing on Windows 10 devices that support Raytracing Hardware. Now the video options will contain upscaling options.
Of course, the developers didn’t forget to fix the bugs and crashes detected last week. They carried out the next operations:

• Fixed some errors that could crash the game
  
• Removed a crash that used to occur sometimes when the player loaded a local Bedrock world
  
• Corrected a color in the Character Creator, namely the “strawberry blonde”
  
• Removed a bug making the player’s hand bob even after disabling the bobbing setting
  
• Removed an error making the loot tables with the set_data function produce wrong items
  
• Fixed the Servers tab that used to read the text-to-speech messages incorrectly in case the player is not signed-in into his/her Microsoft account
  
• Corrected several incorrect text-to-speech indices
  
• Improved the transparency of the Touch User Interface buttons
  
• Made the Netherite armor give a 90% reduction in Knockback
  
• Decided that the bees should stray less than twenty-two blocks away from their beehives
  
• Modified the color of the ghost items’ background when in the crafting grid. Now these items will have different backgrounds depending on their availability.
  
• Made the Player Permissionsmore functional and now the user can navigate it with the controllers no matter what his/her permission level is
