LOD for foliage not being generated correctly

DH seems to be unable to generate the LOD's corresponding to the foliage, it can definitely detect when it exists but the color is a weird pink instead of green, textures: RT by hodi

Solution

I think I know what the issue is
Though I need to test it is that is true
The grass texture is gray and is colored later by MC, MC knows to color the texture because in the model file a

"tintindex"

"tintindex"

entry is present next to the texture access, but the grass in this RP has texture accesses without the tintindex, it does not break vanilla rendering as the faces with tge gray textures are 1D lines (a.k.a. insisible), but DH has no way of knowing that as it only looks at textures
If that theory is correct the RP author has to either: add tintindex to every texture access or remove redundant invisible texture accesses

Some resourcepack have a weird config in them that makes DH thing there are 2 plant: 12 green and 1 ping, if that happens it sometimes choses the pink ones iirc
Last time this was reported it was a resourcepack issue, I will assume it this time too

Can you paste a donwload link to the pack?
Or if the pack is paid, try sending just the grass (or whatever is broken): blockstate, models and texturess it uses

kaladinOP•3/6/25, 7:58 PM

sent a PM

Miki_P98•3/6/25, 7:59 PM

It is tall grass and short grass that is broken yes?

kaladinOP•3/6/25, 8:04 PM

i have only found these so far

kaladinOP•3/6/25, 8:04 PM

i am assuming tall grass is 2 high blocks? looking

kaladinOP•3/6/25, 8:06 PM

tall grass is working fine huh

kaladinOP•3/6/25, 8:06 PM

plot twist?

kaladinOP•3/6/25, 8:06 PM

its the slightly brighter green patch in the center

after moving forward a little

Can you disable tint with avoided blocks and set block to ignore to None, it will be easier to pin point the fault to a single plant block without the grass below affecting anything

Miki_P98•3/6/25, 8:10 PM

You can restore the settings later, just send some SS with this combo of the same group of blocks, but made from LODs and in vanilla RD

i removed all textures and put some patches down on a chunk border to see it side by side

If you have some way of contacting the resourcepack artist, you can pass the info and fix onto them if you want to

Miki_P98•3/6/25, 9:56 PM

I've just remembered that Puhpine said that DH only takes the top (up) texture for cnsideration
So the fix can be simplified to putting on every facing face
Though if the block part is rotated IDK how that will work, so the full of putting on every face is probably better
