Issue description

When using forge's render types on the snow layers model to set them to something like cutout, it causes the mods snow layer to render as completely invisible. If you try to solve this problem by making the mod use its own snow model with the render type set to solid, not only is the snow layer now invisible, but the thing it is combined with will also render as invisible.

My guess is that this is happening due to the way the mod is trying to do its snowlogging. I take it there is a custom renderer being used in order to achieve this, which consequentially is conflicting with forges render_type model setting. Thus causing the whole thing to not render.

With unique model using render_type:

What are you trying to do? What resource pack are you using?

What are you trying to do? What resource pack are you using?

This is my own custom resource pack that adds an overlay to snow blocks. This is achieved in a more "optimized" way by making the snow block/layer use the cutout renderer in forge(Yes I know this makes it incompatible with vanilla, but I don't really care). My reasoning for this is, while I know your mod offers snow overlays, it doesn't do it by default. The player has to toggle it manually(at least as far as I can tell), which is just not reasonable when talking about doing that for all snow layers in a world. I personally like the overlays, and want them by default, thus, this pack was created.

I want to continue using the mod as it offers a lot more than just the overlays, but this bug does kinda make shit a tad "unplayable" as I can now actively see through terrain in certain parts of the world where your custom snow layer is being utilized.
