Frequently asked questions

Do I need to enable the resource pack in a specific way or does it just work?
Load the pack through your resource pack menu in-game—it will apply immediately to all ore blocks in your world. No additional configuration is needed; the 3D models activate as soon as the pack is active.
Will this resource pack work on my multiplayer server?
Yes, it works on both singleplayer and multiplayer servers since it only changes how ores look visually without altering any game mechanics or server files. Each player on the server needs to have the pack installed on their client.
Can I use this pack alongside other resource packs?
It depends on what the other pack modifies—if another pack also changes ore textures or models, they may conflict and one will override the other. Stack this pack higher in your resource pack list if you want its ore models to take priority.
Does the 3D ore pack affect my FPS or cause lag?
The pack uses optimized 3D models designed to have minimal performance impact, though older computers may notice a slight difference depending on render distance and cave density. Most modern systems run it smoothly without noticeable lag.
