I created a world and wanted to recreate it.
I looked up the seed and used that. It generated a different world. I tried Large biomes to see if I had made a mistake. That created a different world as expected.
I tried the re-create button and it does re-create one of the worlds - the latest world and not my original.
So how do i re-create the same original world - the one with the desert village?
I tired different version of minecraft to no effect. Just recreates the new version. Hence images using 1.7.1

I enclosed three pictures of the same location and same seed. All are creative, one is large biomes, and the other two are default. All three are different.
