@Christopher Fry i hope its done for 1.14.2 too but its become evidently apparent that the minecraft higher ups don't have a problem releasing full updates with 4 months old game breaking bugs and though i'm sure the guys working to fix this bug are working hard to find a fix i wouldn't get your hopes up, all the people on our server did, especially the times it was supposedly fixed, only for them to be dashed with every release.

i was really hoping to celebrate minecrafts 10 yr birthday in 1.14 too. oh well better reopen the bug i guess its a shame we cant get a refund of our time wasted with this bug.

thats a shame, i really hoped it was sorted out. i could give a download of our world if it helps but i dont know what triggers the bug, as sometimes it takes some time before the bug appears so i wouldnt be able to provide a download of just befor it happens, and i dont really want to update to 1.14.2 pre 1 to test it if theres people saying its not fixed as our server members are already very annoyed from all this going back and forth.

its fixed? 1.14.2 pre 1 says it is. if it is in fact fixed i would love to know what the cause was.

another thought, could the devs whip us up a version of 1.14 that DOESNT have the new lighting engine? not saying that its the cause but we could at least rule it out.

could the devs not join someones world that it affects, or someones world where its easily reproduced? maybe then they can get the info they need? also thanks for the update violine1101, im sure they are working on it and hope they will fix it soon, but i think we can all agree that 1.14 shouldn't of been released in the first place with such a bad bug.

Thats a shame, i was so hoping someone would have a fix, 4 months and still no closer to a fix.

tried the latest spigot and it took alot longer than normal but then the dark patches came back ;(

hey guys i just been looking in to spigot for 1.14 (though its not released yet) and came across this, https://hub.spigotmc.org/jira/browse/SPIGOT-4884?filter=-9
it seems they have fixed the problem so maybe the people dealing with the bug may want to get in touch with them to find out how they fixed it.

just noticed this bug is 4 months old now lol

ah ok, thank you.

does replacing all the lights actually stop it happening again?

i wonder if this is somehow connected to MC-151082, https://bugs.mojang.com/projects/MC/issues/MC-151082?filter=allopenissues
reading the comments there it seems server lag and tick rates get progressively worse and happens more when moving a good distance which sounds kinda familiar

the specs idea is interesting, as it would explain why some people get it and some dont, or maybe server settings are different to single player? i can say from experience though that when ive tried it on our sever it was only me on at that time so the only chunks loading/loaded would be the ones im in and spawn chunks if that helps at all.

1.14.1 is out, no mention of a fix (which is ridiculous considering they said it wouldn't release if theres a show stopping bug, which this is) any confirmation on if it is still occurring or not? hopefully it isnt cos i cant see them updating to 1.14.2 for a few months.

sorry let me rephrase, we experienced the bug in each pre-release using a 1.13.2 world that hadn't been updated with each pre-release, ding the optimized world erased cache trick too.

Our server experienced the bug in all 1.14 pre-releases hence why we are very annoyed it was allowed to stay in the full release

yeah we had most of our black spots turn up after coming out of nether portals too. i hope this is fixed by tomorrow when they hope to release 1.14.1

if its worse, then it could be a good thing as they can hopefully see what they changed between releases and maybe narrow down the cause

well as far as pre-release 2, the notes dont say its fixed plus it still says unresolved on here so im guessing its not fixed. i did however notice this on there pre-release notes, Update: We've now released 1.14.1 pre-release 2 which fixes a few issues. Unless any major show stopper pops up, we aim to release 1.14.1 on Monday, May 13th. I would hope this means it should be fixed this week as i would say this bug is a major show stopper.
