For all I know, this could have been reported somewhere already. All I know is that as soon as the new update happened, Minecraft started crashing after the Mojang logo. I had the EnchantView mod installed before, but I deleted that and it still has the same problem. I even made sure it's using the right texture pack and everything. Here's my crash report.

hmmmm,Maybe you should try .... force updating(even if there is no new version,sometimes it worked for me)or ask somebody else

Yeah, I thought this was some huge problem of Mojang's because it happened RIGHT as the update happened. It was working fine to the day before.

Is this a big enough problem that Mojang's going to try and fix it with their next update...?
Or is there an official thread from them that can shed some light on this? I literally can't play Minecraft at all.
