The new max render distance is lower than the old far render distance. I am playing on a Lan.

Uploading more pictures to prove that I am not making this up. Not sure why someone would.
EDIT: All pictures were taken with highest render distance setting.
"Another tip for you would be to take 4 pictures. 1.7.2, any snapshot/version of 1.7 before 1.7.2, 1.6.4, and 1.5.2. That'll also help show any inconsistencies in the 1.7 snapshots."
I am not complaining about snapshot inconsistencies. I do not want to run my existing world in a snapshot. The error is the reduction in rendering distance from 1.6.4 to 1.7.2.
I recommend you retake both pictures with your F3 menu up in the exact/nearly exact same camera and foot position for accuracy. It's really hard to tell how far you moved, or if you moved.
Edit: F3 menu will do 3 things for you:
-Add legitimacy to your position in coordinates
-More clearly show your render distance
-Show what versions of Minecraft each picture was taken in
Another tip for you would be to take 4 pictures. 1.7.2, any snapshot/version of 1.7 before 1.7.2, 1.6.4, and 1.5.2. That'll also help show any inconsistencies in the 1.7 snapshots.
