Found a location where the game will consistently not render some chunks.

Adhere to the XDG Base Directory Specification instead of clogging up the home directory with another directory.
Should be a simple fix. You could continue to use the current ~/.minecraft, but create new installs in $XDG_DATA_HOME/minecraft | .local/share/minecraft and prefer it when it exists.
This is standard compliance.

Same issue on 12.04, though i’m seeing the Duke Java icon for Minecraft’s window and taskbar entry.
MC-63043has a seed and xyz if you need to reproduceStill seeing it while running around the plains on that seed, though mostly now at edge of FOV.
It’s a bit complicated, the launcher loading screen (that’s just text debug info) has the JDK Duke icon, then the launcher loads ‐ current launcher 1.5 has a Minecraft icon for window and window selector; once loaded into the game proper, Minecraft application 1.7.9 has crafting bench icon for window and window selector. 14w30c is the same, crafting bench icon.
Can’t test on the other platforms, is that how it should be?
Seen this recently in 1.7.9 as we prepared our unpopulated chunks ready for the 1.8 update. Willing to share the map data if it’ll help devs look into this.
It is a bug, because the mouse wheel inversion is ignored - unlike in other applications. Would you like me to refile a new bug and reword this same issue?
Would offer hugs if this could be looked into; Minecraft launcher, and the game itself should do a better job using modern Linux conventions (even if they are a bit daft).
Here’s how my custom env vars are, which are not the default XDG location:
XDG_DATA_HOME=/home/john/settings/data
XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/home/john/settings/.runtime
XDG_CONFIG_HOME=/home/john/settings/config
XDG_CACHE_HOME=/home/john/settings/cache
If this bug could be updated and confirmed: afffects current version, launcher and client.
Minecraft is one of the few remaining applications on Linux that puts data in ~/.application/, would be great to see this fixed.
