    Can you show a screenshot of what you’re seeing? This was an issue (not mac exclusive) in earlier 6.0 patches but should’ve been fixed already; but your debug info indicates you are on the latest version.

    Here is a screenshot on a brand new world in a brand new modpack on Neoforge with only Create on the newest version. You can see the drips coming from the pipe but no fluid is visible.

    This issue also can be "fixed" by turning off the Flywheel backend, so perhaps this should be tracked as a bug there instead?

    Same issue here, MacBoook Pro M4 PRO.

    With command /flywheel backend flywheel:off the issue is fixed.

    It's still pending approval, but by next week you should be able to access Mac PipeFix for Create. It's a tiny mod I made with Claude that turns off Flywheel rendering JUST for glass pipes. It doesn't use mixins or alter Flywheel's behavior in any other way otherwise. Tested on Apple Silicon and it fixed something that had been annoying me for a couple of years... 😆

    It's definitely a Flywheel bug rather than a Create bug. It has to do with OpenGL support for macOS Metal (or the lack of.)

    This was fixed by Engine-Room/Flywheel#332, which'll be included in the next create release
