After the most recent update, the RTX option in Minecraft no longer works as expected. Features like Physically Based Rendering (PBR) and real-time reflections are completely broken. Textures appear flat, and reflective surfaces no longer behave correctly. This issue occurs regardless of which RTX-compatible resource pack is used.
Steps to Reproduce:
Enable RTX in the video settings.
Load any world with a valid RTX-enabled resource pack.
Observe that reflections and PBR effects are missing or non-functional.
Expected Result:
PBR textures and reflections should render correctly when RTX is enabled.
Actual Result:
No reflections or PBR effects are visible, even with proper resource packs and RTX enabled.
