The “/reload all” command is not working correctly in the latest preview. It is intended as a fast way to exit and enter a world to reload resources, but it currently fails to reload resource packs in the “resource_packs” folder at all. Manually exiting and entering the world reloads resources as intended, but this command does not.
To Reproduce
I perform these steps in the video attached to the report as an example.
Import and apply a resource pack in the latest preview version of the game.
Enter a world.
Observe a feature of the resource pack. This could be an animation, sound, or texture. It must be noticeably different than the base game.
Without exiting the world, navigate to your imported resource pack files. They can be found here:
%APPDATA%\Minecraft Bedrock Preview\Users\Shared\games\com.mojang\resource_packs%APPDATA%\Minecraft Bedrock Preview\Users\Shared\games\com.mojang\resource_packs
Change the feature of the resource pack that you observed in step 3.
Navigate back to the Minecraft Preview window.
Run the “/reload all” command in chat.
Observe the same feature of the resource pack. If the “/reload all” command worked as intended, it would have changed following the change that you made in step 5.
However, in the current game, the feature should look identical to how it looked in step 3.
Exit the world manually through the pause menu.
Load the same world again.
Observe the same feature of the resource pack. It has now updated to match the change you made in step 5.
This means that the “/reload all” command is not actually reloading resources.
Expected Result
“/reload all” reloads all resources the same way that exiting and reloading a world does.
Observed Result
“/reload all” does not reload resources, but exiting and reloading a world does.
Notes
It is important to be able to reload resources in the “resource_packs” folder because using the “development_resource_packs” folder used to cause the game to take multiple minutes to launch: https://report.bugs.mojang.com/servicedesk/customer/portal/6/MCPE-157742
The resource pack I’m using in the video disables the Preview header text. However, if you pause while I’m alt+tabbing, you can see that I am using the latest Preview, not the latest Release.
