Description of Problem:

This volcano didn't fully render:

Floating vines:

My attempt to worldedit //regen made it worse:

Error Messages:

none

Link to pastebin of log:

n/a

I'm going to attempt to remove the chunks via mcedit and let the server spit them out again. Hopefully I'll get a full fledge volcano but worse case scenario is I get more swamp... or mcedit crashes.

Edit:

Leaving the area, deleting the chunks in MC edit and coming back resulted in this:

DoubleEdit:

Client rendering issues, it went back to looking like the first screenshot.

Either client rendering glitch, which means logout and log back in.

Or it is Elloram's broken volcano generation that hasn't been fixed since 1.8.

eloraam said that this is indeed a bug in RP2 and she'll work on fixing it for the full release (not a preRelease). cant find the quote right now but i know she mentioned it.

This appears to still be an issue in 3.1.2. If I enter these areas where volcano blocks are missing, I start to do the infinite skip-in-place dance. However, if I place blocks- any blocks- within the un-rendered volcano's space, the blocks will turn to basalt and complete the render, fixing that particular area. I can then walk on top of those blocks without skipping. Although this works to repair the missing blocks, it only works one block at a time which isn't a very practical solution.

Is there an update, work-around, or a fix for this bug?

Thanks for a great modpack. I am completely re-addicted to Minecraft! ;)

Yeah, this has been a thing for a long time. It's better than it used to be though, all volcanoes used to be wallcanoes.

Ah, thanks... I am new to running these servers so i am not familiar with what the long-standing issues are versus the old issues (which may have been resolved since.) I wonder if I tried to use worldedit to fill in the area with stone and then chisel the volcano OUT. OR, use WE to fill the area in with Air blocks. Might trigger the same effect I described above. (Not sure if WE is Tekkit-friendly, though.) I shall experiment this weekend.
