I haven't seen much coverage on this, but I know it's been pointed out before with no resolution that I could find. I have used OptiFine in this world before, but this is all from a fresh 1.4.4 minecraft.jar. I logged in one day and found these black shadows covering the faces of these two towers. They go away if I go near them, but return whenever I log in again.
In addition to the weird shadows, dropped blocks seem to suspend in the air near the glitched surface.
For some reason, dirt blocks appear on the glitched tower face. If I try to get up there to remove them, I seem to get stuck inside of invisible blocks.
Is there some solution to this issue? I've put a lot of work into this, so it's very frustrating to have some weird shadow bug ruin my world. I'm hesitant to start over with a new world because who knows if it will just happen again there. Thank you for your assistance.
Nothing you can do about the shadows, it requires a rewrite of the lighting engine used in the game. They tried a fix in one of the snapshots, it fixed the problem, but made the nether unplayable (super lag), so they had to scrap that fix, and plan to try a new fix in the future (no specific time frame, likely when they think of a better solution)
The dirt you didn't place was likely a enderman.
the glitchy drops happen with half blocks, steps and other none full sized blocks. I haven't seen any solutions for it.
Well, that's rather frustrating. I mean, it's a building game where at random your buildings can be ruined by these ridiculous glitchy shadows. Thanks for the reply, but this seems like a pretty huge issue for them to be putting on the back burner for so long.
