Chunks Don't Render with advancedOpengl = true

Workaround

Disabling Advanced OpenGL solves this issue (Options -> Video Settings -> Advanced OpenGL -> Off)

If you don't have that option in your video settings, please check your .minecraft/options.txt for the entry

advancedOpengl:false

If it's true, change it to false (Quit Minecraft, edit this file, restart Minecraft)

Entire chunks do not visually render, however, their blocks can still be mined/pick blocked/broken like normal. Block updates do not cause the chunk to render.

Relogging does fix the problem, however new chunks will then be visually unloaded.

Persists in 14w25b.

Anyone having this issue:

Please force a crash by pressing F3 + C for 10 seconds while in-game and attach the crash report ([minecraft/crash-reports/crash-<DATE>-client.txt|http://hopper.minecraft.net/help/finding-minecraft-data-folder]) here.

Experienced this with a Nvidia GTX 460. Updating to the latest drivers (337.88) and disabling "Advanced OpenGL" appears to have fixed this and MC-56917 for me. Here's a crash report anyway.

I experience both problems (this and https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MC-56917) on NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M. Disabling advanced OpenGL seems to solve them as well.

Nvidia GeForce 650 Ti Boosted, latest drivers. I can confirm that disabling OpenGL solves the problem.

I hope this's fixed soon, it happened today (for the first time) for me, but is really annoying. I also discovered a huge abandoned mineshaft caused by this, with tons of cave spider spawners, which I need for my potion-room, (for spider-eyes) which is directly (about 6 blocks above, not even one block off in x or z coords) above it.

Happened while having advanced opengl turned off, changing mipmap levels causes the game to freeze then the mousclick is not being released from the bar.

Advanced opengl not shows up on ATI Radeon HD 4600 Series video card.

These reports are wrong linked:

  • MC-62262

  • MC-62165
    as it only happens with the spawn chunk and is NOT fixable by setting advancedOpengl to false

Advanced OpenGL has been removed in 14w30a.

Seems to be a duplicate of MC-3998.

I can no longer reproduce this in 14w30b.
