If you are a Java coder and are interested in contributing to Chunky, please check out the "help wanted" tag on our GitHub issue tracker. The issues tagged with "help wanted" are easy to moderate in difficulty and should be a good starting point if you want to get in to Chunky development.

Hey everyone, I decided to create a Discord server for Chunky development. Here is the invite link: https://discord.gg/VqcHpsF

Hop on the server if you want to discuss the current development! I will be working on Chunky most of this weekend.

Chunky 1.4.0 was not working for some people. When trying to launch Chunky nothing happened. Thanks to some bug reports from users it was easy to identify the issue which was caused by a bug in the Chunky Launcher.

If the Chunky settings directory was not configured before the launcher tried to start it would crash. The first-time setup dialog should have been shown to choose the settings directory, but the rest of the launcher tried to initialize itself before that happened leading to the crash.

I have updated the installer for Chunky 1.4.0 so the launcher should hopefully be working once again when making a fresh install.

I have noticed that users ask a few common questions both here on Reddit and on the GitHub issue tracker. Instead of constantly answering the same questions I think we should collect the common mistakes and problems people encounter in one place so that they can troubleshoot the problem more efficiently.

I have added a "Troubleshooting Chunky" page to the Wiki.

Suggestions for edits are very welcome. You can make an edit via the Edit link at the bottom of the page.

I like watching people code, for example I follow a stream called Handmade Hero, so i was thinking about streaming some Chunky coding. Not sure if anyone would watch it though, what do you think?

I'm tentatively planning to stream today at 20:00 CEST.

Edit: streaming soon on twitch.tv/llbit

Edit 2: Thanks for watching. Hope it wasn't too boring. I will probably stream the same time the rest of this week, doing UI stuff in Chunky.

I recently set up a Spreadshirt shop and designed Tshirts with the Chunky logo. Check it out here: Chunky Shirts

I was waiting to post about this until I could order some shirts for myself and check the quality. They seem to be pretty good quality shirts. I made a small album with pictures of the shirts here: album.
