14w32a is the forty-second snapshot for Java Edition 1.8, released on August 6, 2014,^[1] which adds red sandstone, armor stands, and the NoAI tag.

Red sandstone

• Can be crafted with 4 red sand in a square.
• Can be crafted into chiseled, smooth, stair and slab forms.
  • Chiseled variant has a wither pattern to complement the normal creeper pattern.
  • Slabs have (like stone and sandstone) a smooth variant.
  • Comes as a smooth double slab - minecraft:double_stone_slab2:8.
• Generated only in mesa biomes at cave entrances.

Armor stands

• Can be used to decoratively display armor (including pumpkins, mob heads, and player heads).
  • Armor can be right-clicked to be applied to the armor stand and can be applied by dispensers.
  • Armor can be applied by dispensers aimed at any part of the stand.
  • Armor can be removed by right-clicking on the piece of armor player wants to remove.
  • Can render enchanted and dyed armor.
• Crafted using any stone-type slab and 6 sticks.
• Stacks up to 16.
• Armor stands are actually entities not blocks and can, therefore, be summoned using /summon ArmorStand and put in minecarts.
• NBT data can be used to create armor stands which are small (Small), invisible (Invisible), have arms (ShowArms), have disabled slots (DisabledSlots), have no gravity (NoGravity) and are in a preconfigured position (Pose).

NBT format

• NoAI tag can be applied to entities to disable their AI.
  • Entities without AI do not attack players or move or rotate on their own, and do not despawn, they also do not respond to gravity or collision with other mobs, but can still take damage, die, and ride other entities.

Splash

• Added "This is good for realms."

Beacons

• Beacon beams are colored when going through stained glass and stained glass panes.
  • Making it feed into multiple stained glass blocks/panes combines the colors.

Coarse dirt

• Tilling coarse dirt with a hoe turns it to regular dirt.

Health bar

• Has a new animation for the damage, that additionally shows how many hearts a player loses.
