I think it's fair to say that i still haven't got the hang of keeping my original map when a new update comes out for Minecraft and to be honest i can't see anything different, although the 8 update is supposed to be the big one.
The only thing i have noticed is that the way to craft some items has changed, but i do like the new fences and doors in the colours of the type of wood your using, i haven't seen any rabbits yet!
One thing i have noticed is that every time i load up my map, the achievements are not saving, so everytime i open my inventory it keeps giving me the achievement and my stats aren't saving properly.
Anyway here is some screenshots of my latest creation in Minecraft:
I do miss the mods from 1.6.4, but plain old Minecraft is still as fun!!
