Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on Emissive Trims Shaders?
It is a core shader, so you enable it through the game's Resource Packs screen, not a Shader Packs menu. Move it into the active list, click Done, and any trimmed armor should glow once you step somewhere dark.
Do I need OptiFine or Iris for the trims to glow?
No. It works entirely on its own as a core shader, so the glow works in the base game without any shader loader.
My armor isn't glowing at all, what am I doing wrong?
The glow only shows on armor that actually has a trim, so plain armor will look normal. Apply a trim at a Smithing Table using a smithing template, and check the effect in a dark cave or at night, where it stands out most.
Which armor trims glow?
All armor trims glow. Any trim pattern you put on your armor will light up in dark areas.
