When smelting iron ore in a furnace in snapshot 25w16a, the smelting process occurs, but the progress arrow and fire animations (above the coal) are missing. The furnace block still displays the fire texture on its front. This issue affects the visual feedback of the smelting process, making it unclear if smelting is happening.
Environment
windows 10, vanilla, survival.
