About this Mod
This is a small, client-side Fabric mod that subtly adjusts the rendering of open chest models to prevent texture flickering (known as Z-fighting) when multiple open chests are placed close together, often on the same block boundary.
It applies a tiny, almost imperceptible translation (a small shift) to the chest's model only when it is in the process of opening or is fully open. This slight positional offset ensures that the models' surfaces do not perfectly overlap, resolving visual issues without noticeably changing the chest's appearance in the world.

Does Chest Render Fix need to be installed on the Minecraft server?
No. Modrinth marks Chest Render Fix as unsupported on the server side. Install it only in your local Minecraft mods folder. Your server can remain unchanged unless the mod page lists an additional dependency.
Which version and loader does Chest Render Fix require?
Use a file for fabric and your exact Minecraft version. Supported versions include 1.21.8. Files for different loaders are not interchangeable.
Chest Render Fix is not working – what should I check?
First check the Minecraft version, loader version and required dependencies. Put the .jar file in your local .minecraft/mods folder and remove older duplicates. Because this mod is client-side, adding server RAM will not fix it.
