End Rod Rendering Bug Fix Guide

Summary

Optimum Realism announcement troubleshooting end rod models and color loss on colored concrete and terracotta. The post explains that a mod is likely overwriting end rod textures, recommends using a clean profile with only required mods, testing 2-3 mods at a time, and sharing the exported modpack to identify the culprit. Also notes shaders are not the issue and highlights Polytone and texture pack context.

One of your own mods is causing the end rod to be over written

Use a clean profile, with just the mods required by my pack

Then slowly enable 2-3 mods together

You'll find the culprit

Also why are you not using a good shader??

Even here one of your mods is adding it's own textures

smartsummit-55 OP

I did it in a clean mod pack too ( just had etf polytone iris sodium in the pack )

smartsummit-55 OP

Also love the texture pack you did a great job!

smartsummit-55 OP
