You can check the change log here. The installers were created with 
. WorldPainter is free and open source software, released under the GNU Public License (GPL) version 3. The source code is hosted on GitHub.
It should be pretty self-explanatory, and the rest you should be easily able to find out by clicking around. Don't forget to try all your mouse buttons, and try holding them down! Post in this thread to get support from me or other users of WorldPainter.
The Load and Save functions save the map in WorldPainter format. The Export function exports the map to a Minecraft world. By default it is exported right to your Minecraft saves directory. You can then open the world in Minecraft under Singleplayer.
The Import and Merge functions allow you to import the landscape from an existing map, and then merge any changes you make to the landscape back to the existing map. It is not meant for general purpose map editing! WorldPainter is, and always will be, a map generator, not a map editor. Note that this functionality is dangerous! Use it at your own risk. Please see this post for important information about how these functions work, and their limitations.
This tool is not meant to create ready to run single player maps, it's meant to create server levels and adventure maps. The idea is to create the basic landscape, with your mountain ranges, oceans, forests, snow and ice, lakes, hills, etc. using the tool, and then go in and fill in the details with other tools.

We are training extra hamsters to help power the server. Sorry for the inconvenience.

The Great Sea is a unique survival server which takes place on an infinite, custom generated ocean map. Set off into the mighty blue yonder and find all manner of islands ranging from the tiniest of rocks to colossal mountains, spires, volcanoes and grassy plateaus. Carve your house into the side of a mountainous island, settle down on a tiny hermit isle, or just explore the world. You will find all sorts of foreign lands, nothing like vanilla Minecraft. The server is non-grief and non-PvP, except in designated areas.
Ranks may be purchased with in game money. These ranks come with additional commands and a colored name.
Rank 1: Explorer - 1000$ - /home, /nick
Rank 2: Adventurer - 1000$ - /home, /nick, /warpRank 3: Mayor - 5000$ - land protectionWIP
Any and all donations towards mothly server cost would be greatly appreciated! Donators of 8$ or more will receive all the perks of the adventurer. You can send your donation to [email protected] via paypal.
1. No griefing or stealing outside of PvP areas. Griefs will be rolled back and perpetrators banned.
2. No cheating or xraying. Xrayers will be banned, and trust me, I'll find you.
3. If you see someone living on an island, ask them before building there.
4. Respect server staff and other players. I swear to Notch, if you ask to be op’d or admin’d…
5. Be sensible with TnT. Don’t destroy the entire map.

Some points of interest:
Ores are very rare in these isles. Interestingly, there is a lack of stone on the map. Stone spawns like any other ore, rarely and in veins. You may find that you actually have to use wood tools to start. Gold tools also have more value: Gold picks give a chance to gather additional ore and stone. Utilize all tiers of tools to better your chances of survival.
Monsters also have additional drops, such as food and torches. I won't spoil the surprises, find out for yourself.
Type /leadkills to see the PvP leaderboard.
Pumpkins give additional breathing time.
Many changes and additions will be coming in the near future.
NOTE: If you find lapis ore, please tell an admin. We'll use unheard of levels of wizardy to turn it into stone.
Donations: If you'd like to donate to the server, we will love you forever and ever. Send donations via paypal to [email protected].
A donation of 8$ recieves a once-a-day starter kit, and the /sethome command.
RULES:
No hacks of any kind
NO XRAYING. I will find you and rip out your jugular.
We have plugins to track an identify xrayers.. you have been warned.

It hits you.
The diamond ore gave way into a pit of lava. A fiery few moments of sizzling heat.
How am I not dead? Or perhaps.. I am, and this is the afterlife?
Your whole body aches, but slowly you sit up and take a look around. The world you find yourself in is startling, to say the least. You are on the bank of an immeasurably long river that stretches seemingly infinitely in both directions. The banks on either side of the river climb gradually into colossal, impassable mountains. While scanning the landscape, you notice a cave in the face of the one of the mountainous walls. The fluttering of butterflies starts in your stomach.
I don't know where I am, or what I'm doing here, but it's time to mine.
Currently seeking help with plugin installation.
The Riverworld
The riverworld is a unique PvP minecraft server. A massive river runs from one end of the map to the other, lined by riverbanks and closed in by towering mountainous walls. We will be a towny server, allowing players to create block protected towns, or join towns under nations. TnT sieges on towns are allowed, and nations may wage war on each other.
Cave systems don't exist under the river itself, but can be discovered via mountain passages lining the sides of the rivers walls. Ores can only be found in cave systems, or in special areas. They do not spawn everywhere.
Our plugins are not yet configured, but we will be customizing monster stats and drops. Zombies will have high health and low damage, and will sometimes split into more zombies when killed. Skeletons will do more damage, and shoot from farther away. Spiders will have low health and high damage. Enderman will unmistakably be the boss monster of minecraft. All monsters will also have altered loot tables, ranging from sticks, to wheat, to diamonds.
Our world is based on the Riverworld sci-fi novels by Phillip Jose Farmer. Recommended to any sci-fi fans.

You can tell people to get a mod when they have a problem with vanilla minecraft; what do you tell SMP servers?

You've intentionally misquoted him, but even still I think you're misinterpreting him. Imagine a zombie chasing you and walking into a wall, while you're on the other side; now, instead being stuck in zombie limbo forever, it'll eventually forget you and start walking around again. And to combat mobs with improved pathfinding, rather than every zombie within 15 blocks finding the quickest way to your delicious loins , they won't be able to track you down without actually seeing you.

You're sort of missing the point here. We couldn't find anything in the new generator worth a picture.
If you can find anything, anywhere in the new generator that rivals the old photos, please share them.
