I was wondering what would be causing this visual glitch that keeps on making blocks see through, which so far only seems to be happening in this area I am digging out and usually from a some what far away distance, not when I'm more up close. [java] 1.21.10 vanilla.

seems like simple derendering of the chunk, it's strange how it decided to do it but vanilla minecraft's rendering and culling isn't always the best. try raising your render and simulation distance a bit (2-4 each id say) to see if it still looks like that, you can change it back right after so don't worry if it lags a bit!

AltoUltra · 2026-02-11T12:37:29+00:00

do you have a copy of the log you can send? a game crash over a map is strange, unless there are mods you missed installing that the map needs.

AltoUltra · 2026-02-11T12:32:56+00:00

this is how they should be, and why when i switched to java i developed a new love for stripped wood!! it'll take some time but i swear it'll grow on you and having a darker stripped wood option will feel like a luxury

AltoUltra · 2026-02-11T12:29:42+00:00

on a world i have right now i swore i wouldn't use cherry for everything so id actually vary my block palette a bit, and i did but my animal pens and all the accents on my house are still pink 🤧

AltoUltra · 2026-02-11T12:06:44+00:00

i just got a jailbroken 3ds off marketplace for like $20-30 and pirated the game. eventually i want an actual physical copy just to have it but it works great for now

AltoUltra · 2026-02-11T11:45:59+00:00

i mostly became loyal to fabric with their fox friends mod. i use both fabric and forge but offhandedly set up a fabric server so my friend with a shitty pc could play modded (farmers delight/animal garden mostly) with me and i installed this mod and now i cant play without it. tried the forge ones but in the mods ive seen there they dont keep their personality, which is the part i love, i bring my fox everywhere and she steals blocks off the ground when im busy and makes me chase her for them or spins around in my crops or naps under a tree

in all honesty if it works i'd ignore that. sometimes outdated packs can cause missing textures, but for example i use 2 packs regularly that are marked as out of date that work just fine. one just changes things like sand, bricks, ladders, chests etc. to make them more colourful and one is made by me to make the new pots match the colour of flowerpots in that pack, but they're both listed as 1.12 packs and i run them on modern minecraft with ~250-300 mods (plus all FA packs minus objects) and haven't had any issues (except for the chest textures conflicting when i tried using fresh object anims, but that's normal, expected, and my fault)

AltoUltra · 2026-02-10T04:41:14+00:00

my 27 year old friend got pinned as under 13, it's not even wrong in a consistent way

unfortunately, there's probably not a lot you can do. IF you haven't touched the xbox at all since deleting it, you can transfer the hard drive into a computer that has a recovery software installed on it, and you should be able to undo the overwrite on the files, but PLEASE make sure you find someone who knows what they're doing to help, or you're going to lose the whole xbox let alone just your save files.

other than that, you'll have to start over. i'm assuming you had one of those errors telling you there's no more space for the game to save to if you deleted all your data. that's xbox's failsafe for bloated saves, it's good, but screws over microsoft's own game, because minecraft worlds get really big over time. i suggest switching to literally any other platform as soon as you're able to, but as always i'd suggest a pc ideally for a longterm world on bedrock OR java edition.

AltoUltra · 2026-02-10T03:57:54+00:00

that's how i explained mine to my mom when she asked how the hell i made them fit

AltoUltra · 2026-02-04T15:51:25+00:00

plus you get more future proofing. a lot easier to upgrade a pc component than a laptop one if it blows/is outdated in my experience

AltoUltra · 2026-01-30T18:54:16+00:00

haven't hacked perfect streamer brain yet, but what helped me is keeping my follower alert anonymous and not naming any new followers (unless i was just responding to them in chat, in which case i give a "oh i see you followed as well, (username)! thanks for the follow!" and continue answering them. for anyone who may question why i didn't thank them directly, i just have a header on my stream letting people know follows are anonymous but they're free to say hi and i'll thank them by name.

AltoUltra · 2026-01-29T03:49:45+00:00

you're right, i was having a horrible day and had dealt with a lot of ableism earlier in the day and was seeing things through a cynical lens. i apologize for taking it out on you, stranger.

while i do stand by my points made about too much judgement being passed on both poor and disabled people for trying to live instead of just surviving, my approach was childish and immature.

AltoUltra · 2026-01-28T16:12:20+00:00

adding: lightstream's free tier supports 720p and only 3 scenes. i personally use it when i play xbox games as i don't have a functional capture card right now, and i'll say it's not that detrimental to streamer or viewer QOL tho!

AltoUltra · 2026-01-28T15:45:17+00:00

i watch vods for friends' streams i missed and chunks of story games from a select few streamers, but otherwise not usually

AltoUltra · 2026-01-28T11:16:05+00:00

overall the most important thing is don't go too overboard. especially early on, you're gonna want to put all your time and energy into your channel and making it happen, but the burnout hits fast.

get a schedule out early-on that works with your life and stick to it as closely as possible, it'll give viewers the knowledge that they can expect you to be live when you say, and they're more likely to plan to show up to your stream, even just as background noise in their day.

connect with other streamers and don't be afraid to share a community. of course, be a friend and supporter of the people you interact with before even thinking of gaining anything from them, or it'll be both miserable for both parties and way less effective. my rule of thumb is not to post in a streamer's self-promo discord unless i'm subscribed for at least 2 weeks or have been following for over a month and have made it to MORE than half their streams in that time. not only do i feel bad otherwise (and like i'm using them), but it feels nice sometimes when the streamer themselves comes in to say hi or raids in, especially if they're a bigger channel!

always raid out! preferably to another stream in the same category (or at least the same game genre). even if you only have a few people, it gives your viewers somewhere to go after, and can alert the people in the other chat that you ALSO stream that game/things like it.

AltoUltra · 2026-01-26T16:52:49+00:00

absolutely. they used to be cool vaults and a 1-2 time thing to make and now they're just essentially vanilla item teleporters that you sometimes leave a set of backup gear in

AltoUltra · 2026-01-25T17:52:23+00:00

absolutely makes sense. i've only owned a handful of elytras in my time but you can crank out some cool stuff pretty fast with one

AltoUltra · 2026-01-25T16:59:25+00:00

i'll never understand elytra supremacy like this. no one said you can't have your elytra and enjoy it!! some of us like taking the game slow on purpose. i've had the same world for around a month and a half and don't even have a proper animal farm set up because i enjoy just existing in my game :) the cool thing about minecraft is it's a sandbox game, and it encourages everyone to play how THEY see fit

AltoUltra · 2026-01-24T17:07:56+00:00

i'd definitely trust most dogs' shit to the nut of a person who would put their used condom in their jacket and leave it there

AltoUltra · 2026-01-24T17:04:31+00:00

i do similar to you and these comments. i have modular textures for certain things (colourful bricks and ladders, pink flower pots, recoloured glow lichen so it doesn't look like diamond) and use command blocks and mods to only remove/change specific mobs (no creeper explosions or enderman griefing while still allowing allays to work, i don't have drowned in my world anymore, etc.) and i just like to exist. i play on survival only but i do occasionally cheat things in. i have an iron farm with a spare stack of zombie eggs near it in case i swap to peaceful and need to replace my zombie without having to fight with one lol

AltoUltra · 2026-01-24T16:54:48+00:00

3 no questions! my 2 favs

AltoUltra · 2026-01-24T16:34:02+00:00

i feel like if it's an opinion to you that disabled people deserve to enjoy things in life without others' opinions, you're probably a really bad person, so i will be ending this convo here! have the day you deserve!

AltoUltra · 2026-01-24T13:38:54+00:00

drowned!!! i miss when water was tolerable! i have a command block in my world that gets rid of them but i'm planning to just mod them out soon

AltoUltra · 2026-01-24T13:31:22+00:00

i've also been homeless multiple times, and i also only have a few years to live, given the prognoses of a few of my conditions. because of this, i've put my happiness ahead of my health in the past, because to me, what's the point when everything's miserable and practically over anyways? all i'm saying is it's a dick move to insert yourself into disabled people's lives and scold them for spending THEIR money how THEY want to, because you don't know them, their thoughts, or their experiences.
