Ok i was playing around with snapshot 12w36a and i liked it, so i changed my survival game to creative then went on a map making spree. i wanted to make 9 maps zoomed to level 2 (zero being where they start and 4 being as far out as you can go) in a 3 x 3 grid. all went well when i mapped the middle 1 x 3 section and hung up copies on the wall in item frames. then i made a level 4 map and used it to map out what i just did, making sure not to go to far on the side. then placed a copy of that in a frame as well. Then i quit and used MCMap Live to get a good look around. I went back into the game and used /tp player x y z to find the other six points i was going to start mapping from. I started the maps then went home and the two of the maps on the wall had nothing but my position marker and the middle one had a green marker (marking itself maybe) i opened up the copies in my inventory and they were the same. so i remade them destroying the originals. i zoomed the six new maps out to level 2 then noticed when i pulled out my main level 4 map that it was blank as well. i tossed it then tried to remake it. but when i went to zoom it out the game crashed.
ok i know that was a long explanation but i had to make sure i covered everything. now i thought i could easily make a whole bunch of maps like i described, i mean it's not like i will really cover that area any time soon (especially digging down). what could be the problem? a glitch? if not you'd think you be able to map as much of the world as you could explore and keep different zoom levels for different types of traveling. the game works fine after restart but i have no clue if my maps are still good.
