When flying over a chunk, I expected the chunk to load, however, the chunk would stay 'invisible' (I could see into the void). I could destroy blocks, as their hitboxes would appear, but the blocks had no texture. Entities in the chunk act normally.
When I exited and re-entered the world, the chunks that were previously 'invisible' became visible, but other chunks would become 'invisible'. The textures on the side of the adjacent loaded chunks facing the 'invisible' chunks do not render, so the chunks are not transparent to the game. When destroying the blocks, the particles created are of what the block should be; destroying leaves creates light green particles.
This only occurred for the worlds that I generated in 14w29b. Older worlds from previous versions are fine.
World: Default Superflat, but the problem also occurred on a Default World.
