I have been able to play every version of Minecraft up to 1.6.4 with no problems, but now that the 7's came out, I can't play them. If I first log in, on a fresh launch page, then go onto a server everything looks normal.
If I select any small item, like a torch, flower, arrow, etc, in my hot bar, as if to hold it, the game doesn't crash, but the entire screen goes to hell. I don't get it, the texture pack disappears - like, I can see through the ground, but there's nothing but dark blue below me. I can see the shadows of blocks, sometimes. Water is visible, so is lava. I can see player's skins. The sky is black. I can see chests, signs, things of that sort. But everything else disappears and freaks out. Especially if I have the item still held! If that's the case, the screen is flashing and everything is freaking out in an array of colors. I am desperate, and if I don't get it figured out I'm afraid that the updates will move on without me and I won't be able to play Minecraft anymore. Also, I'd love to show a picture but I don't know how to upload them.
Any help is appreciated, thank you!
