It's one of your mods

If you remove all of them you'll see it works

When holding a grass block, the texture in my hand says to enable connected textures, but when placed, it's fine.

I think there is a very tiny, very slight chance you might be right. I don't know why it feels that way. It's just a hunch.

Hey

rustyranger-63 OP

Yes that's intended

rustyranger-63 OP

It's because when people don't use CTM you gotta tell them they aren't

rustyranger-63 OP

The fallback version of the grass block is the one that stays in the hand

rustyranger-63 OP

Can't do anything about it
