I was just playing good old survival when i found this glitch thingy...








it's a big-ass hole straight to the void.

does anyone have any idea what this is? is it common? and how to fix it ?

I believe this was happening in other versions of Minecraft. It's known as a chunk error. I'm not aware if there is any way to fix it but may be just try to build around it

So after doing a bit of research, everyone seems to be able to fix this chunk error by Relogging.
Can't build around it either

Like your getting from your research, try relogging. It normally fixes the chunk error issue for me.

i relogged a few times, still nothing. i guess this is permanent.

Well, you should try relogging..Well Create a new world? Copy it or something maybe?

maybe this was created by the mods? some mod problems

Maybe but I believe it was a chunk error that occurred. A chunk error is a error which involves a glitch in the terrain making it look weird. Try reloading. It may fix the chunk error.

Unloaded Chunk.

I had this happen to my world after my game crashed while I was playing it. It's caused by two or more chunks whose positions have been miscalculated. You can go into MCedit and delete them (because there probably is more than the one you found) or you can go into the .mcr file and swap the two chunks back to their original locations. Editing the files is very tedious work, but results in less loss of data than the MCedit route.

1. Manually place a one layer thick patch of dirt over the hole.
2. Place a sign in the middle that says "Don't dig straight down"
3. ?
4. Profit!

i tried, you can't build above and around it

Weird thing is, the error only occurs in minecraft, i tried using MCedit and there's no error.

THAT IS CALLED LAGG!!

That's how you'll have to fix it. Go to MCEdit and delete it.
