There probably won't be a new minecraft update for a long time because of the "Pretty Scary Update".
August 1, 2013. Some things were left out from the last update, so they are adding some things, like horses, and other thins from the PC that xbox360 does not have.
In the 1.8 Update. Or so Notch says...
It has all ready came out the next update will be 0.9.0 in may or june of 2014
1.8 will come out when it's done and ready... there is no date set but it should be any day now..
I heard it might come out on the 23rd but I think it's Gunna come out like the 10th or something like that
Minecraft does not update on any schedule. For further information on updates and such, you can use social medias like Twitter to see how their progress is.
Most will not work in a newer Minecraft update with out being updated itself. You would have to ask the maker of the mod you have now. Only they will know. Every mod is different. Depending on the mod it could just take a day or so or weeks to update the mod so have patience.
you can't
Yes
For that goal you must wait until the next day's update.
They usually arrive the day after they are shipped, or the day after that.
Mother's Day is next.
I do believe that they will come out next JANUARY 2010
Currently, you cannot change day to night but it is thought to come in a few updates.
