Hey everyone! Fairly basic process which should be simple is giving me problems.
I have a vanilla 1.7.4 server with a small private white-list of players (just me & the guys) in a survival world that we set to Amplified from the get-go. Fun times.
Now we find we've tired of Amplified (it makes horses no fun) and would like to revert to Default for the Level-Type, but have too much invested to start fresh. We realize that existing chunks will remain Amplified, and that is fine (necessary!) but we would like new chunks we visit to be back to Default.
I set the level-type to Default and restarted the server, then sailed a day out (at least X+1500 or so) and found... MORE AMPLIFIED terrain. Oops. So I rechecked everything and then also changed the name of the server, to be sure I was editing the correct server.properties file. Yup, name changed and everything looked good. So I sailed a different direction about 3000 (we are on a penisula) finally hit new land and... still Amplified.
Huh.
What am I missing here? Is this just not possible? Did I not go far enough?

PS: The only things I have done other than change the level-type is change the difficulty (to 3) and the name of the server. I have literally touched nothing else in the setup at all.
This is either impossible, or hard to do. The coding would be in the world save that is connected to the server, you may want to poke around there and see what you can do. Unfortunately, I only know the source of the problem, not how to fix it.
