Crash after changing max view distance to 20 chunks in options.txt / Render distance too high in options.txt after downgrading

Moderator note

  • Navigate to [.minecraft/|http://hopper.minecraft.net/help/finding-minecraft-data-folder]

  • Open options.txt with an editor

  • Change the line renderDistance:XX to something like renderDistance:12

  • Save the file

Downgrading is not, was never and will never be officially supported. If you are using Snapshots, use them in a different folder like you are told to when activating Snapshots. Otherwise, issues like this will occur.

I tried to modify my settings to what i have set them to through Minecraft directory then i put my chunks to 20 chunks instead of 16 it worked in 13w43a but now it doesn't.

Incomplete without crash report ([minecraft|http://hopper.minecraft.net/help/finding-minecraft-data-folder]/crash-reports/crash-<DATE>-client.txt). Please attach it so that we can diagnose your issue.

Confirmed, but unsure if this supposed to happen, considering you can't change the setting to that value from inside the game.

If you are putting in random numbers, you are going to get random results, don't do it 🙂

Actually, even people who do it all ingame get the same problem.
Ex. I kept trying to get in a 1.7.10 server after messing around in 14w31a.

Thank you it surprisingly worked!

This was so helpful!
