MCPE-169620Some plants in the distance will be rendered brighter after Texture Update
Some plants in the distance will be rendered brighter
Plants related to the bug: grass, fern, tall grass and large fern.
Reason:
After texture update, TGA images below were updated:
1.fern.tga
2.double_plant_fern_bottom.tga
3.double_plant_fern_top.tga
4.tallgrass.tga
5.double_plant_grass_bottom.tga
6.double_plant_grass_top.tga
However, there is a bug in there new TGA files: The transparent part of the images is white, which causes this bug when the images were blured in the distance rendering.
In the classic textures TGA files before texture update, the transparent part of the images is grey, just like the opaque area color.
Bedrock Edition textures updated in 1.10.0. I compared the files in MCBE 1.9 with now. The classic texture is from MCBE 1,9, developer set the grass block top texture as background of grass/fern/tall grass/large fern TGA images, this is for resolve the problem. However when developer make the new vanilla TGA files, they forgot this and make the TGA background white, then if in the distance, the texture will be blurred by shaders, then the brighter background will make the plants brighter, witch caused the bug. Do not use the spyglass to watch them because the textures would not be blurred in the case.
To fix the bug, we must update the 6 TGA files, I have fixed this by myself and I put the ZIP file in attachment.

This is indeed a different issue than MCPE-124821. On duplicate report MCPE-169620 I speculated that it could be an issue with the texture update beta pack from the marketplace, but I was wrong. The issue here is that mipmapping of affected blocks increases their brightness. The explanation given by the reporter of MCPE-169620 is probably correct: they have a white transparency layer instead of a neutral one. Or perhaps black for vines.
I cannot reproduce this in the current version. As I move away from grass and double tallgrass they remain the same color until they disappear.
What texture update are you talking about? If you mean the "Texture Update Beta" pack from the Marketplace, that is an outdated, beta version of the current textures. It is not a continuously updated preview of new textures.

The new Minecraft uses distance to adjust them. Telescopes can't find this bug, but this bug still happen in remote rendering

Not texture update beta package
But I was wondering if this could be solved without setting the background of the TGA image to the top texture of the grass block
