Confirmation Status: Unconfirmed

 Description   

When you move your screen, walk , or something like that, if you look very closely , there are like, 1x1 pixel or 4x4 pixels ( idk ) black particles everywhere, i could only notice it on snow, idk if it only happens on snow or if it is only noticeable on snow, since it is pure white.

I posted some images... but you will have to zoom it a lot and pay attention, very closely !!!

Obs: After i zoomed it , i found out that it is really 1x1 pixels, so you must zoom it and pay attention!

edit: I recommend you to download the image to zoom it or else it is almost impossible to notice

Won't be able to play anymore? Well.. this problem with your computer's video drivers probably isn't going to get any worse than it is. And your computer is well within spec to be able to play. The system really isn't that old, either; odds are Oracle will finally release a Java 1.7 for your system. Not that updated java matters for this particular thing. Anyhow. Have fun.

  • depression * Wel, thanks anyway

Oh... Well, it's not a surprise that the problem is with my computer... I have a really crappy computer... very old mac book pro, those that were still kind of retangular... it can't even support lion... Well, my java can't update anymore, i already tried , not a surprise, 2.16 GHz Intel Core Duo , 2 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM , well... soon i think i won't be able to play minecraft anymore...

I can see them too, in snow. The black particles we're seeing (or at least the ones I'm seeing) behave like the white ones that I see in other places (1x1, only appear on block edges, appear disappear randomly but only when you move). Also the white ones are reported to be in a variety of colors. That's why I suggested they might be the same thing.

Two things:
1. Try updating your LWJGL to 2.8.4.
2. Update your Java.

After i checked again, it only happens when i am far from the blocks , and the black pixels stay without moving when i am not moving either, and when i move they move randomly to another places ( i put the crash report already )

Comment by Abner Eduardo Silveira Santos [ 07/Feb/13 ]

( 1x1 pixel like, not talking about the minecraft pixelated blocks pixels, literally , pixels )

Comment by Abner Eduardo Silveira Santos [ 07/Feb/13 ]

For example, even when i am very close to the block, the particles are still 1x1 pixels and only appear when i am moving

Comment by Abner Eduardo Silveira Santos [ 07/Feb/13 ]

They don't stay on the blocks, only move randomly around my screen wherever i move and the background is white ( currently, snow )

Comment by Abner Eduardo Silveira Santos [ 07/Feb/13 ]

Ok, and they move randomly around only when i move the screen, i will get the crash report now

Comment by Kumasasa [ 07/Feb/13 ]

Well, seems that I have to clean my monitor.

But nevertheless, I cannot reproduce this issue.

Are the pixels steady on the snow blocks or do they move randomly around ?

Please force a crash by pressing F3 + C for 10 seconds while ingame and attach the crash report here.

Well, maybe they are not "white stitching / lines", but looks like all the black dots are along block edges, so quite likely at least related to MC-1794.

Comment by Abner Eduardo Silveira Santos [ 07/Feb/13 ]

It will be easier to look them if you have a picture editor software to zoom until you can see the pixels...

Comment by Abner Eduardo Silveira Santos [ 07/Feb/13 ]

I made red circles around them , there are still many more not marked, you must zoom it a lot to see, like i said.

Comment by Abner Eduardo Silveira Santos [ 07/Feb/13 ]

Sure, hold on a sec... nothing that photoshop can't help....

Comment by Kumasasa [ 07/Feb/13 ]

I'm sorry, but I cannot see any black pixels on your screenshot (yes, fully zoomed)
Can you mark it in the screenshot ?

Comment by Abner Eduardo Silveira Santos [ 07/Feb/13 ]

There are little 1x1 black points , particles on the screen

Comment by Abner Eduardo Silveira Santos [ 07/Feb/13 ]

Download the pic and look closely

Comment by Abner Eduardo Silveira Santos [ 07/Feb/13 ]

No, not at all

Comment by Sealbudsman [ 07/Feb/13 ]

The same thing fundamentally as MC-1794?
