@Mark Gault: If X-raying is still possible, please provide reproduction steps to MC-1769.
Reading this comment history, it is obvious that the majority of respondents agree that leaf block suffocation is an unnecessary and game-damaging feature, intended or no. Ethan Wanless' suggestion bears merit, given the past history of community feedback bearing positive results. However, the vast majority of players are still playing in 1.7 and have little to no clue of this game mechanic change, and will not know of it until the official release of 1.8.
I am pretty confident that once this update is released, you'll hear a LOT more about this. I encourage the Mojang staff to consider some rendering alternatives for leaf blocks to prevent "x-ray" effects and drop the suffocation damage they cause, as it would appear doing this would resolve MC-1769(at least for leaf blocks) and MC-2102.
Fixed in 14w05b. Duplicate of MC-1769

@Andrew, the issue to which you are referring is MC-1769, and has been fixed for over a year now.
If you place many slab and go in a mincart under the slab, you see through the slab
WARNING : IT'S NOT THE SAME BUG THAT MC-1769 WE ONLY SEE THROUGH THE SLAB
Ditto for glowstone. Love this bug.
Works for any block that doesn't suffocate you but doesn't actually have transparency.
(Although I think TNT and glowstone are the only blocks that match that criteria.)
Voted.
Easily solved by making blocks under certain distance from head render all sides, on both Normal and opposite Normal side. Shouldn't affect performance much. Maybe radius of just 2 meters.
In fact, other kind of xray, using transparent textures can also be easily fixed. Disallow any transparency from textures when block is solid type.
Included Block of Redstone.
@Rolf Redford
Disabling transparency for any block is not desired, but the idea of getting the blocks around The Players face to render makes sense.
Disable transparency ONLY when block isn't supposed to have transparent parts. Like stone or wool block. Not leaves, grass, lily, and so on. That's what I mean by Solid block.
Its happen because...
Glowstone and redstone block emits light... if there is literally 0 light you will die (gravel sufffocation, void suffocation)
Not sure on tnt though
yet leaeve dont emit light BUT light goes through leaves SO you dont die
No, the x-ray issue happens when the camera is inside a block at all. It doesn't happen for sand, gravel, or a few other blocks because Notch originally coded special cases for those, so if your head was in one of those blocks the entire view would be blocked off (otherwise you could see through them too). Said checks/cases (if that's how it's still done) aren't in there for other blocks though.
Hasn't this bug happened before 1.3? I saw it in the Wiki but I never bothered to try it.
This was at least in 1.2.5.
Yeah, I joined in 1.2.5 and I saw it in the Wiki. It doesn't really do anything to bother you it just helps to find ravines. The only problem is some servers have those xray finding plugins so by using this bug, you can easily get Banned.
Ravines, Mineshafts, Caves, etc.*
Well, people also use it to find other people's bases to take stuff or otherwise grief. It doesn't matter how well you hide your entrance if somebody can see any underground openings, 'ya know?
But the whole chunks-loading-out-of-order bug also allows people to see through the ground into caves, so multiple things need to be changed to make hiding underground actually work in SMP.
Is this still a concern in the current Minecraft version? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.
Yup. Still present in 1.6.2.
it still works in 1.7.2..
1) piston: just try it a few times, it will randomly work (didnt found the reason for this yet)
2) fence: instead of standing in the block where you will place your 'xray-block', push against the fences, place your blocks of choice by clicking against the fences and walk backwards into them. works every time
Reopening due to still being partially reproducible.
Confirmed, unfortunately still suprisingly easy. Proof: http://youtu.be/Ft4fOregkj0
This is a completely vanilla bug thingy isn't it?
That is why I suggested that all blocks render both sides within 2 or 3 meters from head and make solid blocks have NO alpha. That would render all xray schemes useless.
I am seeing this bug too. I am running Minecraft 1.7.2
Log output from my shell.
I would suggest closing this issue, fixed in 1.7.2 as of the latest test.
1.7.2 here and still seeing it with the Minecart + Redstone approach. Personally, I would not be sad to see this one stay in actually, I mostly play Single Player Survival and it's a useful little gimmick to shave valuable time off when looking for dungeons. However, I can see how this is highly abusable in a multiplayer environment so in case it does end up being fixed (finally), I would personally completely understand.
Howard, it isn't resolved completely.
Still in 1.7.4.
This was fixed in 1.6.4 (I think). But there is still a way to X-Ray.
Moreover, how is it possible that a player trapped inside such a block will not choke?
Standing in those blocks now suffocates you.
Leaves should be altered slightly so that growing trees won't kill you! Perhaps instead of making these blocks(leaf blocks) suffocate you, make them push you out of the way when you are inside them(again at least for leaves from growing trees).
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________
This is such a serious problem when growing oak and spruce trees with leaves too close to the ground. You not only suffocate, you are stuck in the leaves until you break yourself out. If you are low on health then it is a shame to die by leave suffocation.
Tree leaves give me the creeps now...they're evil! ⊙﹏⊙ Burn them, burn them all!
