Since updating from Minecraft Java 26.1 to 26.2, still water surfaces are completely invisible and lava is rendered as black squares.
Flowing water renders correctly.
The issue occurs in vanilla Minecraft with no mods or resource packs.
Tested versions:
1.21.11 – OK
26.1 – OK
26.2 – BUG
Switching Graphics API settings does not resolve the issue.
Environment
System information: Windows 10 Intel HD Graphics 4000 Driver version: 10.18.10.5161 OpenGL 3.3
