I actually know of some solutions that won't cause a entire map wipe and will not generate ugly land. I may reveal a few of these ideas once 1.7 is closer to release but it does not include a entire map wipe

Reset = EZ.
More simple term.

No! The arcane base is waywayway to amazing to be wiped!

Arcane is pretty hawt so it would be a shame to lose such a build. Intelli should just copy paste it on new map

Yeah, if it's that easy

but... That would also be un-vanilla to have 1 cool build kept on the new map

I started playing the snapshot and I have to say I'm fairly pleased with the biome changes.
I love the new flowers, so many to choose from now.
I took a lot of screenshots but I picked these to share:

It seems like they coded something to make mountains and stuff run smoother. Everything seems different and almost like a entirely new type of minecraft. However I haven't found jungles that we have now on it or other 1.6 biomes/landscapes.

The amplified setting looks truly beautiful. In amplified, terrain will actually go up the build limit. I've literally seen mountains that went from Y:0 to Y:250 which is a truly awesome sight to behold. This creates a huge difference in the overall feel as you see massive mountains and overhangs in a lot of biomes from deserts to taigas. I'd post screenies, but amplified won't fully render on my computer because it's too laggy.

More CPU intense? I have an i5-3317U (laptop CPU) on max settings and it runs the snapshot at a consistent 40 fps.
