When changing render distance to 13+, game freezes and eventually crashes

Issue has been replicated twice so far. In a newly generated world, with all other video settings at minimal, attempting to change the render distance to higher than 12 chunks causes the game to freeze and go unresponsive, eventually crashing. Log shows no errors, oddly enough.

Sorry if the log is not supposed to be here, this is my first issue with this tracker.
