Chunk flickering (only Intel HD Graphics / Driver version 10.18.10.3958)

Yes it's happening in 1.8.1, that's the reason why I put 1.8.1 and not 1.8 and 1.8.1 in Affects Version/s. Here you have the screenshots with F3.

I have the same problem, please fix it, it freaks me out

This glitch is making the game unplayable. Has anyone found a fix for it yet?

I had a similar problem with a Intel HD Graphics driver update. I am now using version 10.18.10.3621 after rolling back the updated driver. However, problems remain that may or may not be related. Here are the update details:

Intel Corporation - Graphics Adapter WDDM1.1, Graphics Adapter WDDM1.2, Graphics Adapter WDDM1.3 - Intel(R) HD Graphics 4000

Installation date: ‎11/‎27/‎2014 7:26 AM

Installation status: Succeeded

Update type: Optional

Intel Corporation Graphics Adapter WDDM1.1, Graphics Adapter WDDM1.2, Graphics Adapter WDDM1.3 software update released in September, 2014

in the debug screen the majority of the chart in root.gameRenderer.level.terrain is render_cutout or render_mipped Cutout

I'm getting something similar but seemingly worse - http://imgur.com/a/9uCj7

Increasing allocated RAM/changing graphics card may fix the issue. Otherwise lower your render distaance.

bob, that one is for AMD drivers only. This is for Intel drivers.

Whatakes this one valid and the other one invalid then?

As I said before, that one is for AMD drivers only. This is for Intel drivers.

@unknown: See Varilence's comment in MC-62958:

The mods probably did check themselves to see if the drivers resolved the issue for them as well, though they may not have explicitly stated that. I know I had it, and updating to the beta drivers resolved the issue for me. The drivers being in beta is beside the point in any case, as the fact that one of the fixes listed by AMD in their updated drivers was to solve this issue indicates that the issue was primarily on their end. This takes it from a bug report for Minecraft to a bug report for AMD's graphics drivers. Hence why this ticket and similar issues are marked as "invalid".

This has been a problem for me since a forced update to Windows 8.1, and have a short video to better show the issue (especially prominent at around the 2:20 mark). I also have a forced crash report from a moment after ending the recording. I hope this is of at least some use in validating, understanding and eventually fixing the problem.

I have been getting this issue on my machine - is it any help for me to also provide another forced crash and/or environment details, or has enough been gathered?
Intel HD Graphics 4000 version 10.18.10.3958 as well.

Any updates on this? Sorry... I'm not too sure how these bug reports work so if I'm asking a redundant question, I apologize. I just don't want to play v1.7.10 anymore! 🙂

BTW: That YouTube video posted by Philip Nixon is exactly what's happening to me.

P.S. ~ It sucks to be paying for Realms and not being able to use it as well... 😞

Unfortunately, there have been no new drivers released yet.

Solved in 1.8.2-pre1.

FeliGM, I have temporarily replaced the reporting user because with every update you do, you send out mails to everyone following this report.
I'll change it back later, but please decide on something instead of replacing it every 30 seconds.

Yes, sorry xDDDD. It will not happen.

I can confirm this issue appears solved in 1.8.2-pre1.

I too can confirm this issue appears to be solved in 1.8.2-pre1. I just got a few hours of play in without chunk flickering at all. Smooth game play!

Let's see of it works then!
