Archived Remove /glow!

Simcity_4 · Mar 20, 2016

Recently, I was walking through Regalia, and suddenly got a fully black screen. I looked away and it went away. I experienced this yesterday, and asked in help chat. They said it was a glitch with Optifine and /glow. Whenever anyone looked at a prem is /glow on, their screen would go black (supposedly only optifine did this) but I don't have optifine anymore, and it happens to me. /glow is a very useless command, and it breaks the game, it should be either removed and replaced, or fixed. Reply with some kind of replacement, but I personally hate this command and I hope it gets replaced.

could you link me to this 1.9 optifine you have?

Zacatero · Mar 20, 2016

Could we at least make a toggler option for people to say whether not they want to view glow?

That's the thing, I don't have optifine. some option I have affects /glow.

What else do prems have now. Like seriously. So much has been taken away and people are already complaining about the few fun things that we gained from our loss. Ive never had an issue with /glow. I keep it on pretty often, and so do my allies. Causes no problems with me. I think these complaints are just ridiculous. If people could toggle whether they see it it'd probably stop the whining.

It's a visual premium feature that actually seems popular among premium roleplayers. Making it optional for others to see defeats the point. Optifine is also not an official required plugin, your private mods should not affect server policy.

I see little to no reason to have the feature removed. Instead focus your energy on making bug reports for the Optifine devs so they can fix it, or just don't use an experimental optifine build and expect it all to work without bugs.

I also stated that it should be replaced instead of removed.

I don't have Optifine. that's one of my points. Currently I don't have any mods in my plugins nor minecraft folder.

I dont have any mods or anything either, and it does nothing to me. i've never gotten a "black screen" or been unable to see. its either your game or maybe optifine wasnt fully removed from your game.
I agree entirely with @MonMarty

Optifine was never in my game, I just got a new comp and frech installed the game.

Zacatero · Mar 20, 2016

This issue happens with me when I use optifine, 5zig, and vanilla 1.9

Then it must be your game. either way, it doesnt bother me, I love the feature, and I vote it should stay. I was cussed out by a kid the other day for having my glow on, he was spewing insults saying "Your F***ing glow makes it impossible for me to PLAY MY GAME!" and alot of other things... Riping on Glow, he also said he was using Optifine because otherwise hes too laggy to play massive. Well its not my fault, I'm just using a feature that I love and like considering how much prem has lost. I'm still debating on whether i should buy more. The hate is ridiculous. It needs to stop.

Alright, but if it affects 1.9 vanilla players, it should atleast be fixed, should it not?

Zacatero · Mar 20, 2016

I think a simple command to turn off low locally would be useful… so people can decide if they want to see /glow or not

AetherShadow · Mar 20, 2016

@NohAhNaneEeUhm Could you send a screenshot of your black screen ty?

Any chance you're using a non-1.9 resource pack? That could also be causing a problem.

@NohAhNaneEeUhm It might be some kind of graphic setting on your minecraft launcher that is causing the problem, or on your computer.

Zacatero · Mar 20, 2016

It's not even working on vanilla 1.9. It's hindering my ability to enjoy my time on massive. all I'm asking for is a command so I don't have to see it.

Notice
If you have optifine 1.9, go to shaders and do (none), it helps, if you don't have optifine 1.9, get optifine and do just that.

No, I'm using the latest massive pack.

Theres no real screenshot to be shown, everything (the whole window, not my comp) turns black, occasionally the crosshair remains.

This suggestion is rejected. The /glow feature is not being removed due to client-side bugs.

Archived Remove /glow!
