Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on the Clear Inventory Resource Pack?
Go to Options > Resource Packs, find Clear Inventory in the Available list, and click it to move it into the Selected list. Click Done, then open your inventory with E. You should see the world behind it instead of a solid gray box.
Which menus actually become transparent?
The pack covers all the standard game menus. That includes your player inventory, chests, furnaces, the creative inventory and the advancements screen. The solid gray backgrounds are removed, so the world shows through while you use them.
I enabled the pack but my inventory is still gray, why?
Usually another resource pack that changes menu textures is placed above Clear Inventory in the Selected list and overrides it. Move Clear Inventory to the top of the Selected list, click Done, and reopen your inventory. Also check that it is actually in the Selected column and not still under Available.
Can I see mobs sneaking up on me while my inventory is open?
Yes, that's the main point of the pack. Opening your inventory doesn't pause the game, and with the transparent background you can watch your surroundings while you sort items or craft. If something approaches, you'll spot it without closing the menu first.
