Changelog

  • Improved the appearance of mipmaps when viewed at extreme angles, especially when looking at fire or tall grass blocks (JellySquid)
  • Fixed a crash that could occur under specific circumstances when alpha-blended blocks were re-sorted (Douira)
  • Reduced the amount of visual flickering that occurs when pistons and other animated blocks are updated in the world (Douira)
  • Reduced the number of nuisance warnings caused by the resource pack compatibility checks (Douira)
  • Fixed a problem that caused model faces to render in a different order, which caused some resource packs to break (2190303755)
  • Added support for Fabric's Item Rendering APIs, which at the time of Minecraft 1.21.9's release were not yet fully implemented in Indigo (IMS, Pepper)
