Fixing Missing Custom Models, Colors, and Particle Effects

Cynosure Mod includes dedicated rendering tools, a Model API, color tools, render attachments, and a particle system. When a dependent mod suffers from visual glitches, Cynosure's rendering pipeline is often involved.

Troubleshooting Invisible or Broken 3D Models

If items or blocks from a Kotlin mod appear as flat missing textures or invisible shapes, the Model API or rendering tools may not be running properly:

1. Confirm that Cynosure is actually loaded in your active mod list and not bypassed by a launcher profile.

2. Make sure render attachments are functioning by checking if visual effects on held objects load after reopening the world.

3. Avoid running conflicting third-party graphic patches that prevent core rendering libraries from drawing custom shapes on screen.

Restoring Custom Colors and Particles

Cynosure directly controls how custom colors and particles (such as smoke, dust, or magic sparks) appear:

1. Press Escape and navigate to Options > Video Settings.

2. Ensure that Particles are set to All or Decreased, as setting them to Minimal suppresses particle systems entirely in vanilla Minecraft.

3. If blocks display incorrect default tints, verify that the mod supplying the block is paired with Cynosure so its color tools can apply the right shades.
