Here’s a demo video of said bug. Note how within the same subchunk, a block of matching rendering type must exist for the chalice base to be made visible.

Ah, another one for items today. Items can use 2 different components to determine off hand usage: the allow off hand component and the armor component. Here’s the comparison:

Ah, one more thing I’d missed. Resin was integrated across the board in add-ons. A few highlights:
• The “§v” formatting code
• “material_resin” in the “minecraft:hover_text_color” item component
• “resin_palette” in the “minecraft:icon” item component (for armor trims)
• The “§v” formatting code
• “material_resin” in the “minecraft:hover_text_color” item component
• “resin_palette” in the “minecraft:icon” item component (for armor trims)

🤏🏼 In short, there are known values for everything except maces, even for jack-o’-lantern-like items (“cosmetic_head”) and generic classes (“all”, “g_armor”, “g_tool”, “g_digging”).
These indeed handle enchanments correctly per vanilla examples.

⛏️ While working earlier, I realized Mojang's documentation for the “slot” property in the “minecraft:enchantable” item component was terrible.
Here’s an excerpt from my research: gist.github.com/ciosciaa/e09.... It reveals that there are many more enchantability classes than previously known.

In short, custom blocks using this geometry will become laterally stretched and use double-sided rendering. You may want to consider using a custom cross model now.

It was brought to my attention earlier that “minecraft:geometry.cross” had changed in the latest Preview (1.21.70.20) with no versioning. 😰 Check out the newest iteration here: gist.github.com/ciosciaa/261....

I can’t express how happy I am that minecraft:geometry.full_block now casts ambient occlusion onto nearby blocks. This makes my life so much easier.
