Visible Og Ores Plus Texture Pack FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

How do ores look with this pack enabled?
Ores revert to their classic appearance from before the Caves update and stand out distinctly from surrounding stone blocks. They also feature a glowing effect that keeps them visible even in the dark.
Can I spot ores in pitch-black caves without torches?
Yes. The pack gives ores a glow-in-the-dark visual effect, allowing you to clearly spot them exposed on cave walls without needing to place light sources.
Do glowing ores prevent hostile mobs from spawning?
No, the glow is purely a texture visibility feature on the ore blocks. It does not emit real block light levels that alter mob spawning or lighting mechanics.
What changes are made to flowers?
The pack adds sparkly flowers to the game. These can be found naturally in the world or harvested and placed as decorative elements for your builds.
Why are ores still using modern textures or not glowing?
Another active resource pack is overriding these files. Open your resource pack settings and move Visible Og Ores Plus to the very top of your selected packs list so its textures take priority.
Can I use this alongside other resource packs?
Yes, but load order matters. Place this pack higher in the list than your other texture packs to make sure its classic ore textures and sparkly flowers remain visible.
Does this texture pack work on multiplayer servers?
Yes. Because it is a client-side resource pack, the visual changes only affect your game screen and do not require server-side installation or special server settings.
Where can I find the sparkly flowers?
Sparkly flowers generate across the world in the same areas where flowers normally appear. You can pick them up and replant them in garden beds, grass, or flower pots.
Does this pack modify the surrounding stone blocks?
No, it focuses on the ores themselves. The ore patterns are modified to stand out sharply against surrounding stone blocks rather than blending in.
How do I turn off the classic textures if I only want modern ores?
The classic pre-Caves update appearance is a core part of the pack's ore design and cannot be toggled separately. Disabling the pack in your resource pack menu returns all ores and flowers to default.
