How to Locate Hidden Chests and Underground Mobs

Beyond basic ore mining, AK X-Ray Definitive keeps entities and tile entities visible through solid walls. You can use this to track down a friend's secret stash or find elusive underground monsters.

Finding Hidden Chests and Bases

Standard building blocks and natural stone are stripped away while storage blocks remain rendered.

1. Walk around the general area where you suspect a hidden base or buried treasure is located.

2. Pan your camera downward to scan through the ground layers.

3. Look for the distinct floating shapes of Chests, Barrels, or other utility blocks suspended in the air.

4. Note your coordinates and dig a staircase down to the stash.

Tracking Underground Mobs

If you hear monster sounds while exploring or need to find specific underground mobs, the transparent terrain lets you spot them immediately. Mobs will appear to walk and float inside the empty space where caves and tunnels generate, allowing you to locate mob spawners, dungeons, and populated caves from the surface.

• Multiplayer Warning: Only use these tracking methods on single-player worlds or private realms where all players agree to allow it. Using an X-Ray texture pack on public servers is strictly prohibited by most administrators and will result in a ban.
