I can't display the chunk borders, even if I hit F3 + G. How do I get them to show up?

  • This has never worked for me in optifine 1.8.8. Is that what you were using?

I know that sometimes you need to hold down the function key (Fn on most keyboards) for the F keys to work. Try Fn+F3+G.

Go into chat settings and disable reduced debug info.
It should re-enable the following:

  • Chunk borders
  • Bounding boxes
  • Coordinates
  • Block info
  • Chunk info.
  • Facing info.
  • Client and server light info.
  • Biome info.
  • Sound info.
  • Difficulty info.

And probably more.

  • Wow, I am so glad I finally looked this up because I would never have considered displaying the boundaries of chunks in game to be controlled by something in chat settings. Thank you.

Maybe you have the lock key on. Try unlocking it by pressing fn + lock key (esc key) and then pressing fn + f + 3

I know this post is old, but I had this problem today and I couldn't find the answer easily. The problem is while pressing fn+F3 it doesn't understand the G, so while pressing fn+F3 release the fn then press G, it worked for me, I hope it works for whoever lands on this post.

One of the MC devs (Dinnerbone) has an online tool that allows you to calculate chunks. https://dinnerbone.com/minecraft/tools/coordinates/

The lines of the chunk border appear virtually invisible when running shaders. Simply, turn off your shaders if you're running them

Well, this can be the thing causing the issue: A broken keyboard. I used to play Minecraft on my laptop and the function keys didn't work. Make sure that your keyboard is working.

  • Are you sure you weren't just supposed to be holding Fn? If it's a laptop then probably. You're just using your keyboard wrong; it's not broken.

On some computers, it is just F3+G but on mine is an HP and I use fn+F3+G
