X-Ray Texture Pack FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Why isn't the X-Ray Texture Pack working after I turn it on?
Applying the pack or changing its settings sometimes requires a full game restart before the changes appear in your world. Close Minecraft completely and relaunch it for the X-Ray effect to kick in.
How do I change which ores the X-Ray shows?
Go to your active resource packs, select the X-Ray pack, and click the small gear icon to open the pack options. From there, drag the slider to switch between the 18 different X-Ray variations.
What mode is the X-Ray pack set to by default?
When you first activate the pack, it automatically defaults to the Classic X-Ray mode. You only need to open the gear icon menu if you want to switch to a specific ore or cave mode.
Can I make the X-Ray show only diamonds?
Yes, the pack includes 18 variations that let you filter for specific ores individually, including a dedicated mode for diamonds. Open the pack settings via the gear icon and move the slider until you reach the diamond variation.
Does this X-Ray Texture Pack work on Minecraft Java Edition?
No, this specific pack and its subpack slider feature are built for Minecraft Bedrock and Pocket Edition. Java Edition uses a different resource pack format and does not support the gear icon slider menu.
How do I use this pack to find caves and hidden bases?
Along with individual ore filters, the pack's slider includes modes designed for spotting underground cavities and player structures. Cycle through the slider options in the pack settings to switch from ore hunting to cave and base finding.
Can I get banned for using this X-Ray Texture Pack on a server?
Yes, using an X-Ray pack on multiplayer servers gives an unfair advantage and is often a punishable offense. Always check the server rules before joining with the pack active, and use it at your own risk.
Why can't I click the gear icon to change the X-Ray mode?
You cannot change subpack slider settings while you are loaded inside a world. Exit to the main title screen, go to your settings or world resource pack menu from there, and the gear icon will appear on the active pack.
Is the X-Ray Texture Pack compatible with RTX?
Yes, there is a variation of the pack that supports the RTX Beta on Bedrock Edition. Make sure you have the RTX-supported version of the pack active in your resource settings if you play with ray tracing enabled.
Why is everything dark underground when I turn on X-Ray?
Because X-Ray makes surrounding stone transparent rather than emitting light, ores and caves in unlit areas can still appear pitch black. Drink a Night Vision potion or turn your in-game brightness setting all the way up to clearly see through the ground.
