 Description   

What's the problem: I don't see the green loading progress bar, the one you normally see when updating Minecraft, when creating a world, regardless of game modes.

What I expected: I expect myself to see a loading progress bar whenever I create a new world, and it should appear when it's building terrain and converting worlds.

How to reproduce:

  1. You play Single Player.
  2. Create a new World
  3. (Optional) Set whatever world options you like.
  4. Create.

Well they did add a percentage completion in the 1.13 snapshot so this should probably be reopened.

Comment by Emoluvjd2 [ 11/Feb/16 ]

It became a bug in 1.3 because of the multiplayer restructuring. I'm guessing they won't fix it because it will affect SMP? Still, the fact that all the in-game transitions were broken and won't be fixed kinda sucks.

Comment by Dlawso the Really Lucky Rabbit [ 01/Oct/14 ]

roadsguy, its because Mojang (Searge in this case) said so. Does every bug report that gets resolved as intended need an explanation as to why said resolution was chosen?

Comment by Roadsguy [ 01/Oct/14 ]

Why is this intended?

Comment by Roadsguy [ 16/Sep/14 ]

@J. P. - Source?

Comment by J. P. Coder [ 15/Sep/14 ]

Working as intended

Comment by [Mod] Sonicwave [ 05/Sep/14 ]

Confirmed for 1.8.

Comment by [Mod] Sonicwave [ 29/Aug/14 ]

Confirmed for 1.8-pre3.

Confirmed for 14w11b

Comment by Itouch2 [ 09/Mar/14 ]

Confirmed for 1.7.5, 14w08a and 14w10c

Comment by [Mod] Ezekiel (ezfe) [ 30/Jan/14 ]

I can move this to myself.

Comment by Roadsguy [ 30/Jan/14 ]

Perhaps someone could just report it again and close this one?

Comment by Tom Lee [ 24/Jul/13 ]

To the mods:

Can anyone help monitoring this issue? I'm going to start my conscription service soon, and I won't be available to continue tracking this issue. As of now, this issue is still valid.

Is it also possible to transfer ownership to another person? Thanks in advance.

Comment by Tom Lee [ 03/Jul/13 ]

Yes, it's still a concern.

I just don't have free time for now. I'm still monitoring this issue.

Comment by [Mod] Ezekiel (ezfe) [ 29/Jun/13 ]

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.

Comment by Wyatt Ward [ 28/Jun/13 ]

Tom Lee, it's been a while but this is not the server that I'm using. I ran the launcher in a command prompt with 'java -Xmx800M -jar minecraft.jar' and the console window displayed debug info from the game. i made a singleplayer world and it said this. Since singleplayer is now a local server combined with a client, this works for singleplayer mode.

Comment by Nico [ 18/Jun/13 ]

this was like that since 1.3.1

Comment by Tom Lee [ 17/Jun/13 ]

@FireHunterX

Updated the title just for you. Although, I'm not sure how I should rephrase my title for that. Would you like to suggest a title for me?

Comment by FireHunterX [ 08/Jun/13 ]

Also it would be a good idea to update the title, because this happens whenever there should be a loading bar, not just when creating a world

Comment by Tom Lee [ 19/Mar/13 ]

I can't tell if this issue should be marked with "Future release - 1.5.1" for the pre-release 1.5.1, or not. As far as I know, I'm going to keep following the snapshot updates and prereleases until this issue is fixed. According to this link here, this issue is still not resolved.

Comment by Tom Lee [ 18/Mar/13 ]

@Wyatt Ward

It could. But it didn't do that back in the 1.3 days.

Comment by Wyatt Ward [ 18/Mar/13 ]

@Tom Lee

Yes this is a server-sided issue. But my point is the minecraft client could read this from the server.

Comment by Aidan Scotland [ 18/Mar/13 ]

I know, it still would be cool

Comment by Tom Lee [ 17/Mar/13 ]

To Aidan Scotland:

That would be a feature request. It has nothing to do with this issue, which was that the loading bar once had been working before.

Comment by Aidan Scotland [ 17/Mar/13 ]

They should also add the green bar when you join a server!

Comment by Tom Lee [ 17/Mar/13 ]

This has not been fixed, as of Minecraft 1.5.

Comment by FireHunterX [ 06/Mar/13 ]

I do think that the intended feature was to include the loading bar, to avoid confusion.

I've had some worlds that just will not either convert or build, and I used to figure this out by watching the bar and waiting for it to get stuck.

What causes the bar to not show, I have not figured out yet, but this is certainly a confusing issue.

Comment by Tom Lee [ 06/Mar/13 ]

Please vote then.

Comment by Maarten Thijs [ 06/Mar/13 ]

wasn't this removed in 1.3?
that doesn't mean I wouldn't want it back!

Comment by Aidan Scotland [ 19/Feb/13 ]

This for whatever reason was one of the coolest things about the game that broke. I hope mojang fixes this!

Comment by Tom Lee [ 02/Feb/13 ]

@Wyatt Ward:

This bug is related to single player mode. The percentages shown in your image works as intended from the server console, which is unrelated to this issue.

Comment by Wyatt Ward [ 30/Jan/13 ]

oops just separately reported this
But yeah it still displays percentage in the command line.

Gone in 1.4.5 too.

Comment by Roadsguy [ 11/Nov/12 ]

Yeah, I don't know what's up with this. :/
