You are using a resource pack (or one from the multiplayer server) which is possibly broken. Do you get the same results without a resource pack?
Do you have a resource pack loaded that was an old one and possibly broken? When in the world and it is not loading as you described; hold down F3 & C for 5 seconds and post the resulting crash report here as it might help find the issue.
MCPE has its own project here on the bug tracker (https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MCPE). Maybe a mod could move this report there (or you might need to report it there instead)
Ahh good good, seems my searching to find a duplicate was not enough 🙂!
Whoops! Sorry for the duplicate; didn't see this already open case!
😃 lording it over the server on your steed 😛!
Fair point; if that was the behaviour in the mod then this is fair; but is the spawning behaviour adapted so they spawn more regularly? Or horses would become almost impossible to obtain.
Just to quote the wiki page on spawning "Unlike monsters, animals do not spontaneously despawn, except for wild ocelots and wolves (which can despawn only when they are hostile)." (EDIT: link is here http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Spawn#Animal_spawning)
No they do not, not as (mind blank cannot remember the version!) when the yadded real mob farming passive mobs do not despawn.
No these horses were not tamed. Why would untamed horses despawn though? Untamed wolfs and other passive mobs do not do this.
Appologies, I did not try this in SMP but as above it should work; if I get a chance I could test this on my SMP server
On the second try was it "/effect @p 5 60 1" you tried in the command block? I have just tried this and it worked both in the command block and in chat.
Please use lightgem.png and lightgem.txt respectively to texture glowstone 🙂
If I delete my player.dat file it allows me to login with no problems; however the bug still exists when I then try it again 😛
Confirmed fixed in 13w02a
Could you please close this bug. I will test this again if I get a chance in a week or so; if it is still la bug then I will repost it referencing this one.
Ive been having the same issue with my acer aspire vx15 with a 1050ti.
