Keep in mind that it hasn't even been properly stated that 1.6.4 has been released, and it was released today.
Besides, with the new launcher, you don't even need an update right now.
You need to update if you want to play on a server, and like myself, i cant play 1.6.4 servers with a 1.6.2 client. Hence we need optifine to update, and i tried updating & installing just to see if it would work, it doesn't. so yeah... id say 1-7 days update time >.<
[Not meant to mean or defend anyone, but just saying]
for the people who don't know......the people who make Optifine hasn't noticed the update/there asleep....i guess the people with crappy computers (like me) cant play Minecraft for the next few days....sure it cant take "THAT" long, probably 1-2 days in time, since it will take time for Optifine to see 1.6.4 and program compatibility......estaments are set at a max of 2 days....dang me if i am wrong but we'll see
A note to everyone asking for a 1.6.4 update. The simple fact is that you don't need to worry about it at this point in time. The 1.6.4 update is just a compatability patch for old world that get transfered over to 1.7. All 1.6.4 does is makes it so that preveously generated stucters in worlds won't become broken for 1.7. Since 1.7's relase is a long time from now you can simply stay in 1.6.2. Once a pre-release of 1.7 is announced then you should update to 1.6.4 and go to the areas that contain structers in the world so that way they will be saved and working for 1.7.
On a side note not even MCP (a.k.a Minecraft Coder Pack) isn't even updated. With out this being updated first mod makers that use modloader or forge will not be update. So again stay in 1.6.2 no new content was added to 1.6.4 so its not even worth updating to this version as of right now.
After some fumbling around, I finally managed to get forge to load optifine. The problem is, now my world textures are messed up, and changing resource packs does nothing.
I figured out what went wrong, and now I feel stupid. I was using the GLSL shaders and they aren't compatible with the antialiasing or the anisotropic filtering.
when people say they cant play minecraft without optifine (like me) they most likely mean they cant play single player on ANY VERSION of minecraft and the servers on minecraft UPDATED to 1.6.4 meaning staying in 1.6.2 is a option....but not a very good one.......almost at all......

You're not understanding the solution though. There is absolutely no reason to stay on 1.6.4.
That version is really just a step towards 1.7 as it fixes the structure generation glitch that 1.6.2 worlds would had suffered from while playing the snapshots. Other than that, the version offers nothing new. If servers updated to 1.6.4, they're not very smart, and you should ask them to revert back.
In other words, there's no point to stay on 1.6.4. Just choose the 1.6.2 profile and continue playing. That's at least what I did, and I'm having no trouble whatsoever.
Just a note to you guys, I'd update to 1.6.4 when the 1.7 prerelease is out. You can play on 1.6.4 servers with 1.6.2 and vice versa, the only difference between 1.6.2 and 1.6.4 is that it saves structures with your world and not your seed. So... why would you already update? Why not update it when it's neccesary?
where is the 1.6.4 edition?
I looked for it and can't find it on Mojang. I'm using Magic Launcher so my best guess is that the default launcher updates, since I found people going "WTF I can't connect to server what's 1.6.4 and how do I go back to 1.6.2?"

This is false. You can not connect to 1.6.4 servers with 1.6.2 and vice versa.
We ALL do, It just came out, be patient

Go to home Optifine you're drunk
Is there a know fix for this or ... what?

we certainly do, I can't stand depth fog, and basically all fog.

No you don't. 1.6.4 does nothing beneficial for 1.6.2. It's just a step towards 1.7, meaning that you don't need to play on 1.6.4 whatsoever.
Switch back to 1.6.2 via the launcher.
I'm playing on a 1.6.4 server, I would've thought of that otherwise.
I'll be honest, I don't understand why servers are updating to 1.6.4.
Me neither.
