[MC-45470] Items don't render on the ground properly

Items (not block like- items) on the ground don't turn around on fast graphics.
If you walk around them they become invisible.

In the last picture I am looking at the item from the back (notice it isn't rendering) With F3 + B mode on (The white box is where the item is)

Edit 14w03b:
Fast Items: Not rendering at all.
Fancy Items: Not spinning.

I just used 14w04a and this issue is still present

Confirmed. They also do not spin in fancy graphics, but you can still see the item itself when facing any direction.

Confirmed.

Just for clarification, 14w04a is not the fix version.
This bug will be fixed in the next snapshot.

It's even worse, items are not visible at all in Fast, at least for me. More reports about that?

Skylinerw 2014-01-24T16:39:00Z

Confirmed Zakery's statement. Items will still not rotate in fancy graphics, and are now completely invisible in fast.

Completely true, found this out while I was enchanting and dropped my lapis. That's when I noticed it, so I threw one on the ground and, sure enough, it wasn't spinning.
Edit: I'm in 14w04b and in fast they don't render.

Confirmed in 14w04b.

Another confirmed in 14w04b

Being more pecisely, in Fast Graphics, at version 14w04b, you can see "block" items (with "block" items, I mean cuboid items, such cobblestone or any kind of ore) but you can not see not cuboid items (slimeballs, coal, diamonds, exporb, tools, weapons...).

Also, you can see how items travel to you. I mean, when you recollect them, you can see them that little lapse of time correctly.

I uploaded a screenshot of some exporbs showing right. (They travel long distance, so they are the easiest to try this.)

Confirmed in 14w04b. Can see square items (i.e. blocks) but items with unique shapes are invisible.

I have noticed for unique items, if you're standing RIGHT above them, you can see them. Any other angle, you cannot.

Skylinerw 2014-01-24T21:19:54Z

The bug has been marked fixed for a future version, so we don't need to confirm anything further for 14w04b unless it's information not already provided; though I can confirm that uniquely-shaped items are only visible when facing north and directly downwards. And a quick correction which concerns the attached image: XP orbs are not items, they are separate entities.

Another confirmed for 14w04b

I just tested using Quartz blocks and once broken you dont see the quartz ore but do see the XP orbs

migrated 2014-01-25T13:29:59Z

Confirmed. I didn't see coal ore drop coal when mined.

migrated 2014-01-25T14:03:01Z

Confirmed. Was confused why t wasn't happening in my map, but I see now.

Also it seems that this may be connected to item frames popping off when opening up a world before this snapshot than loading it in this snapshot.

its the same for mac with the latest snapshot
