How to Use Clear Overlays for Spyglasses and Carved Pumpkins

In vanilla Minecraft, equipping a carved pumpkin or looking through a spyglass covers most of your screen with dark, heavy borders. This pack automatically modifies both interfaces to give you a completely unobstructed view during exploration and combat.

Scouting with the Spyglass

Craft or grab a spyglass and hold it in your hand. When you use the item to zoom in on distant terrain or builds, the heavy dark vignette and brass border normally covering the edges of the screen are gone. Because the pack makes the spyglass interface transparent, you get the full magnification effect across your entire screen without losing peripheral awareness of mobs approaching from the sides.

Exploring the End with a Carved Pumpkin

Wearing a carved pumpkin in your helmet slot prevents Endermen from becoming hostile when you look at them, bit the default cutout overlay makes it hard to see where you are walking.

With this pack active, place a carved pumpkin into your armor's head slot and stay in first-person view. The pumpkin interface is now completely transparent. You can safely walk through the End or warped forests, fight the Ender Dragon, and look directly at Endermen with total screen visibility while still getting the full protection of the helmet.
