Design n Decor: Beam Fix
by mattaway
Design n Decor: Beam Fix is a NeoForge client-side rendering correction for Create: Design n' Decor on Minecraft 1.21.1, aimed at beam blocks.
What it does
Full blocks placed directly against Beam blocks can render some of their faces as transparent. The mod corrects this client-side rendering so that neighboring faces are drawn as normal and the block keeps its usual appearance. The change affects only how faces are displayed, not how blocks behave in play, and the mod is lightweight with no gameplay changes.
The fix requires Create: Design n' Decor, which must be installed alongside it. Create is an optional dependency and is named here because the beam blocks it corrects come from that set. Because the mod applies a rendering correction only, it works as a drop-in compatibility addition, though the author notes that world conversion is required before the corrected beam blocks take effect.
Files are published for NeoForge only, for the single game version 1.21.1. Version 1.0.0 was released on 2026-05-26, the same day the mod was first published and last updated. The code is not open source, and it is released under All rights reserved.
Key features
Beam face rendering fix
Corrects the transparent faces that appear on full blocks next to Beam blocks in Create: Design n' Decor.
Client-side correction
The rendering change applies on the client, so the fix shows for the player without altering the world's block data.
Lightweight with no gameplay changes
The mod leaves recipes, mechanics and block behavior as they are and touches only how neighboring faces are displayed.
Restored normal face culling
Improper face culling is prevented, so blocks against beams render with their regular faces again.

How it compares
Iden's Decor is a NeoForge decoration mod for 1.21.1 that runs on client and server, under All rights reserved and not open source. Decor & Co is also NeoForge and runs on client and server, but its files target 1.21.8. Cosmos Beam covers 1.21.1 on NeoForge and runs on client and server, so it does not fix the rendering issue that this mod corrects on the client.
