I have an issue on my two Linux machines (one using an RX 6600 XT and the other is a Steam Deck) where blue artifacts appear on the player's hand (such as when mining, going into water, a skeleton is behind the hand, etc.)

no. there is nothing wrong with your device.

it's a technical problem for the design of the shader itself. it's not something easily solvable.

By any chance, does this also occur under Windows with AMD?

as i said, its a problem in the design of the shader, it will happen equally for everyone on every device.

will look into it.
could you also make sure no mod is conflict and causing it?

Here is another rendering artifact I captured under Linux + AMD Mesa. The two are:

• A banner is being rendered as if it weren't obscured by water.

• The floating ice island in the distance has its ice glowing when it is obscured by the water.

Another graphical bug I caught where enchanted items appear semi-transparent

enchant glint being broken in multiple ways is known.

the thing where banners and other translucent things don't get obscured by water from when viewing from outside, is a technical problem, much less a bug. it's one of those things with deferred rendering and translucents... unsure if the technical problem will be solved anytime.

Are you suggesting that the banners and translucent things are most likely a graphics driver-related issue?

ngl that does look kinda cool... maybe that can be a toggle in the future?

Any entity behind a transparent material glows bright blue for me. Running Linux (KDE Neon, Mesa drivers) with a 6700XT.

this is issue#123, which should be resolved now, please refer to that issue thread for more info
