Describe the bug

Player does an impression of my dad every time i turn on the shader

Forgot to mention im using iris shaders on neo-forge.

could you send a screenshot with your f3 fully visible? (make sure gui scale allows that. make sure you have no mods that remove information like clean f3 or better f3)

additionally, could you test in isolation, removing ALL mods, no exceptions, except iris + sodium?

yeah lemme do that rq

i have reproduced the issue and narrowed down what its coming from.... was an easy guess for me, the problem child of iris features, seperateEntityDraws.

the same issue happens on photon, it uses this same iris feature, and it stops when disabled.

you can disable this iris feature by turning OFF the setting in shader settings -> debug/experimental -> translucent entities.

its unfortunate you have to do this, as it enables better rendering of slimes, horses, player skins, banners, ect

ah okay. thank you very much for the fix.

further testing shows it only seems to happen on neoforge + iris + sodium made for 1.21.8. it does not happen on 1.21.7 and older.
