Minecraft 26.3 Snapshot 7: Concrete Stairs, Slabs, and Explorer Maps

Major Build & Exploration Boost

Snapshot 7 brings a massive quality-of-life update, finally letting us craft 🟢 Concrete Stairs and Slabs in all 16 colors. Players can now find dedicated Explorer Maps in Abandoned Camps for everything from Ancient Cities to Trial Chambers.

Detailed Tweaks & Features

  • Explorer Maps: These are now unique items with distinct icons and fixed zoom levels.
  • Animation Control: Added new data components for custom attack and interaction animations.
  • Quality Fixes: Dozens of UI, keybind, and structure generation bugs were squashed.

Minor visual and technical polish resolved various crashes and clipping issues. Finally, interior decorating with concrete gets the love it deserves.
