Frequently asked questions

Do I need OptiFine or shaders to use this pack?
No. This pack uses vanilla emissive textures, so it works on completely vanilla Minecraft without any mods or shader installations.
Why can't I see the glow on my ores?
Make sure the resource pack is enabled and ranked above any conflicting packs in your resource pack list. If you're in bright daylight or near torches, the glow effect may be subtle—it's most visible in dark caves.
Does this work in the Nether and End?
Yes. Ancient debris, nether quartz, nether gold ore, and all other ores in those dimensions receive the glowing treatment.
Will this pack work with my other resource packs?
It depends on load order and what the other packs modify. Place Vanilla Glowing Ores higher in your resource pack list to prioritize its ore textures, or lower it if you prefer another pack's ore look.
