Chest Render Fix
Chest Render Fix corrects a flickering that appears when several open chests sit close together in the world.
What it does
When two chests share a border, their models can overlap and flicker as the game draws both surfaces at the same depth. The mod applies a very small offset to a chest's model only while it is being opened, so the two surfaces line up without a visible change to the chest. It runs on the client alone, so the server does not need it. Files are published for Fabric 1.0.0 on 1.21.8 only, and Fabric API must be installed alongside it. The code is released under the MIT License, and the project is not open source.

Offset only while opening
The shift is applied to the chest model during the opening animation, not to the chest in the world.
Nearly invisible change
The adjustment is small enough that the chest keeps its normal appearance for the player.

This is a small, client-side Fabric mod that subtly adjusts the rendering of open chest models to prevent texture flickering (known as Z-fighting) when multiple open chests are placed close together, often on the same block boundary. It applies a tiny, almost imperceptible translation (a small shift) to the chest's…
