ragdim Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 I'm having an issue where I can't see snow or ice through stained glass (I tried this with and without my sphax texture pack). Here are some pictures, 1 showing the snow/ice like normal, and the other where the snow/ice is invisible:
ragdim Posted November 3, 2013 Author Posted November 3, 2013 If anyone could give suggestions/check to see if this is the case in their own MC, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Neowulf Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 It's a limitation with the render engine. It cannot render multiple translucent effects (anything that colors the view through it) on top of each other so it culls everything but the closest. Normal glass is just a transparency effect, which is why it works. Stained glass, water, and ice are all translucent. I can't remember, but I think the patch notes for one of the 1.7 snapshots made reference to fixing that limitation. So you'll have to endure it for now.
ragdim Posted November 3, 2013 Author Posted November 3, 2013 Thanks for that helpful and timely response. Here's to hoping it gets fixed!
