What in the world is going on here? I have played multiple servers and this problem is still occuring. Is it a glitch? Sometimes it happens and sometimes not... This is what it looks like:

Do you have any mods installed? I see that sign is also invisible so I have a good feeling it is a mod, and or texture pack problem.

It can't be a texture pack because it looks normal, unless you have the old cobblestone texture pack of something.

What are your graphical settings?If not on fast,try changing it to fast

It was on fast to start with... but, the only mod I have installed is optifine.

Dude you may be lagging or there is a problem with your graphic card i recommend try to force update minecraft and try again that might work

This happened on my Ubuntu distro in singleplayer. The mobs were all messed up. If I had to guess, I'd say it's either your graphics driver or Java. Try updating both and see what happens then. If that doesn't work, and neither does a force update to MC, I have no clue. Strange, to say the least.

Graphics card issue. Try updating it.

I updated the graphics card. Not the problem. Any other suggestions?

I'm guessing you mean your graphics card drivers?

Have you tried updating your Java yet?

Yes, and how would I do that on ubuntu? sudo apt-get update ?

Just making sure about the graphics drivers. You never know, lol.

Ahhh, so you are in Ubuntu. To be honest, I've never figured out the fix for Minecraft in it. But I've been using OpenJDK through all my troubleshooting, so if you just try regular Java, maybe it'll work. And does this bug only happen when you're playing multiplayer? Just curious because I might have a theory...

Anywho, unfortunately, the regular sudo apt-get update won't work for Java. =/

This site has tons of info on downloading and installing all sorts of Java and OpenJDK versions, though. It seems to walk you through it very well, too.

Hopefully you can get it fixed!

So I have Oracle Java 7, and also OpenJDK Java 7 installed. I use the latter to launch minecraft...(OpenJDK Java 7 Runtime) so what do you mean by "regular java"?

By "regular Java", I mean Oracle's Java, yeah.
