Frequently asked questions

Why aren't my ores glowing even though I installed the pack?
You need either OptiFine or the Continuity mod enabled to render emissive textures—the resource pack alone cannot display the glow effect. Make sure your chosen mod is installed and active, then restart your game.
Does this pack work with other resource packs?
Yes, but you should load Glowing Ores and Blocks either above or below other packs in your resource pack list depending on which textures you want to prioritize. If you want the glow effects to show, place this pack higher in the load order than packs that modify ore textures.
Can I use this on a multiplayer server?
Yes, this is a client-side resource pack, so it only affects what you see and doesn't require server installation. Other players won't see the glowing effects unless they also install the pack.
Do the glowing blocks give off actual light that affects gameplay?
No, the glow is purely visual and doesn't emit light that spreads to surrounding blocks or affects mob spawning. It's a cosmetic enhancement to help you spot ores more easily.
