"Green Button" in Latin means cake.
By Forge and non-forge versions, does this mean that there will be a mod applicable to the base vanilla server, and one availible for MCPC-Plus? (MCPC Plus being bukkit, spigot, and forge in one) or is forge compatibility not enough, will it need to actually be a bukkit mod for it to also work or... how would compatibility with MCPC Plus work being that forge is compatible, does that mean that cubic chunks would also be compatible?
Any loading of chunks that isn't controlled by the player, knowingly so, with no limit, is bad and it could lead to it being possible for someone to "Corrupt" a world, accidentally, in such a way that each time they try to run it, Minecraft runs out of memory.
For the player themselves, reduction of loaded chunks during falling was originally proposed, but was cut out after negative feedback. It makes it difficult for things to be seen while falling, which is bad.
The falling pause is hardly an issue. It should only occur on very slow computers, it barely affects actual gameplay, and by playing Minecraft on a slow computer, you essentially forfeit the right to have a perfect quality experience.
Oh, it already went live a long time ago, this is just an attempt at a reboot. It stopped being possible to say it's impossible a long time ago.
And if you want to experiment with a Minecraft-like environment that already uses 3D-Chunks, aka Cubic Chunks, then head on over to this thread and download the current development demo of HexaHedra for Windows! It has a vertical distance of 4.2 million Km.

I think what (s)he meant was that because its come back, and (no offense to the old mod) its become super popular now, to the point where Mojang has acknowledged its existence, so they cant go back and say "This wont work."
Mojang acknowledged its existence before 1.0, and it was very popular then. The only reason it didn't continue as such wasn't due to lack of popularity, it was because of Robinton being tired of the constant minecraft updates. People were asking mojang for Cubic Chunks on twitter, on reddit, on these forums and even in emails. That's why they finally met us on reddit and why Jeb changed to a cubic chunk-like system.
It's very good though to keep the popularity up and going so that Mojang doesn't just become complacent again and think that everyone's forgotten. So what is happening here is what needs to happen, I agree.

As for the history, I didn't realize that cubic world mod exist before 1.0. I didn't play with mods back then though, so it would have been easy for me to miss it. The first place I have heard it talked about so on the suggestion forums I think about a half a year ago. I first posted on this very thread at that time and have continued to post on it occasionally just to keep in focus.
Unfortunately, I've pretty much run out of new things to say
Well, thanks for the info, and thanks for not getting all huffy over it.
You took my idea and the first thing you do with it is made a 1500 block deep bore hole with 1000 stack deep pile of TNT.....
....
I'M SO PROUD!!!!!!
lol
XD First thing I did when I played way back in alpha was did a bore hole hehe, and if I had TNT i would have done just that. lol

This is my baby, please support her and get her into vanilla:
As it will be in the future, it was at the birth of Man
There are only four things certain since Social Progress began.
That the Dog returns to his Vomit and the Sow returns to her Mire,
And the burnt Fool's bandaged finger goes wabbling back to the Fire;
And that after this is accomplished, and the brave new world begins
When all men are paid for existing and no man must pay for his sins,
As surely as Water will wet us, as surely as Fire will burn,
The Gods of the Copybook Headings with terror and slaughter return!

Well, that is very useful information. I wish him luck in his endeavors. がんばってね!(Good luck/ do your best.)

I think shadows from something more than ~250 blocks high shouldn't appear.
