Water Fix
This mod fixes the bug MC-195271, which is caused by how water's model is not saved in the same way as every other model in the game. Specifically, it's model is generated at runtime based on the water in the world around it. This mod changes how that model is generated, allowing it to be displayed in display entities and in falling blocks.
This mod is required client side, but optional server-side. If enabled, installing it on the server allows blocks with visual data like banners, signs, or campfires to show their data when they are falling blocks.
This is a mod made for a video by Gneiss Name, discussing how weird Minecraft's water is.
