Double sound for fall damage

When receiving fall damage, two sounds will play, the fall damage sounds (plays when you land painfully) and the normal damage sound (this plays when you actually take the damage)

What I expected:

  • Just the fall damage sound to play.

What Happened:

  • The normal damage sound plays a fraction of a second after the fall sound.

This is more noticeable on servers because of the sight ping delay.

This didn't happen in 1.4.2 or bellow.
Sorry I couldn't provide a video, my screen recorder can't record sounds.

This Might Somehow Be Related To Mojang Fixing The Fall Damage Bug, As I Say: "Programming Is Easy, The Hard Part Is Debugging, As One Bug Fixed Could Potentially Cause Ten New Ones."

Really strange how that happens isn't it. I guess java has it limitations.

I am confused as to which sound should play. Are we supposed to hear the sound we were used to in 1.3.2? Or just the "new" falling damage sound?

No that's not what I mean. Just test it out 1.4.2 them 1.4.3 pre the sounds are different. Not sure about 1.4.4. And the sound from 1.3.2 is one long sound instead of a double short sound.

I figure it out. Its the client side sound that play as well as the server sound. And the server sounds differ to the client's. Depending on your ping the two sounds will play at a different time.

No I tested them separately. In multiplayer it is more noticeable because there is more delay. You fall hear the 'thump' then the 'crack' when you actually take the damage, of course there aren't supposed to be two sounds and the regular pain sound isn't supposed to play for falls. Beacause single-player has a internal server already running it will always act as multiplayer so it really doesn't matter which way you play.

Is this still a concern in the current Minecraft version? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.

Is this still a concern in the current Minecraft version 1.6.4 / Launcher version 1.2.5 ? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.

No, it was fixed around in 1.5.2.
