Minecraft Wiki talk:Issues/Beta 1.8

Hello. My english is not the best, but I can understand you... Well, the problem I saw is: In creative mode, I can fly to the sky (up) forever... without stop. That's... weird.

Whenever I try to open the video settings, the game crashes. This happenes in: The main menu, SSP, SMP

No Light Glitch
When facing certain directions in creative, The character looks completely dark as if he is in an unlit cave.

Creative mode Arrows Bug
When you give your self an arrow from the creative menu and then shoot the bow you lose the arrow and need to get another.
 * Added -neobenedict

^You are supposed to have unlimited arrows on creative without putting arrows in your hotkey bar

--Shift clicking will give you a full stack of 64 arrows

While shooting your bow and switching to another item or block will make your bow unusable.

Creative mode maps
pretty minor, but maps put into inventory from the item palette are always centered on the spawn.

Iron Bars, Fences.
Iron Bars, Fences, and some other items can now be placed on top of tall grass. This shouldn't happen.
 * Added -Neobenedict

Endermans (SMP)
The Endermans wont Teleport to you in SMP and wont even look at you, they're just making a sound like zombie.

Mushroom Breaking Glitch
When another block goes next to a mushroom(like Cactus) it breaks. This does not seem to be affecting mushrooms that spawned when the world generated, and it makes the spread of mushrooms difficult. Farming is also very hard now.

SMP - Teleporting
Upon teleporting, a player will get stuck in the target's character until disconnecting and reconnecting. Worked fine for me. So might not happen for everyone.

Creative Mode Time Warp (F6, F7) Keys are unpredictable
When using these keys, it is very difficult to return to normal time-speed as the buttons seem to increment/decrement the time flow in inconsistent values. (It constantly ramps up the longer you hold down the key. If you let go it degrades down to normal time.)

Hunger Bar, EXP Bar
The Hunger and EXP bar do not seem to always be generated when creating a new world, and only some new worlds do not have these functions.

Smelting
This doesn't always crash. In fact, I only had it crash when I used wood and beef. Ever since then, I cannot get it to crash with any fuel source and any item smelting. Here is the crash data from my original crash:

java.lang.NullPointerException at oj.h_(SourceFile:111) at eh.e(SourceFile:1193) at net.minecraft.server.MinecraftServer.h(SourceFile:370) at net.minecraft.server.MinecraftServer.run(SourceFile:303) at ce.run(SourceFile:418) 2011-09-09 15:56:19 [SEVERE] Unexpected exception java.lang.NullPointerException at oj.h_(SourceFile:111) at eh.e(SourceFile:1193) at net.minecraft.server.MinecraftServer.h(SourceFile:370) at net.minecraft.server.MinecraftServer.run(SourceFile:303) at ce.run(SourceFile:418)

Smelting causes black screen
In Single player, when I go to smelt anything, I get the 'Saving chunks' screen and then a black screen. After closing minecraft and logging in again, the smelting is occuring, but after placing anything else in the furnace, there is a chance it crashes again (though not necessarily every time)

Raw Chicken bug
When cooking Raw Chicken in a furnace, your game will crash.
