See Enchanted Tools and Armor Shimmer When Held

Viewing Held Item Glint

When you hold an enchanted tool, weapon, or armor piece in your hand, Enchanted Covers applies a vivid shimmering overlay to the item model. This effect is visible both in first-person view (when you're holding it) and in third-person view.

Maximizing the Visual Effect

Switch items in your hotbar: Rapidly cycle through enchanted and unenchanted items in your hotbar to see the glint effect activate and deactivate. This makes the enhancement most noticeable.

Equip full enchanted sets: Wear a complete set of enchanted armor to see the cumulative shimmer effect across your character. The resource pack enhances each piece simultaneously.

Use in varied lighting: The glint overlay remains visible in most lighting conditions, but appears most striking in daylight or well-lit caves. Test your enchanted gear in different environments to appreciate the effect.

The resource pack is purely visual and does not affect enchantment power, durability, or any gameplay mechanics.
