Distinguish Trapped Chests from Regular Chests

Visual Identification

With this resource pack installed, trapped chests and regular chests now have distinctly different holiday gift wrap designs. This makes it easy to tell them apart at a glance without opening them or using debug screens.

How to Identify Them

Regular chests appear as standard wrapped presents with solid ribbon patterns and classic gift box styling.

Trapped chests feature a specialized festive design that visually distinguishes them from regular storage. The wrapping style, ribbon placement, or decorative elements differ noticeably so you can instantly recognize which chest will trigger redstone signals when opened.

Practical Use

When building storage rooms or redstone contraptions, place trapped chests in locations where their unique appearance helps you remember their function. This visual distinction is especially useful in complex storage systems where you need to avoid accidentally triggering traps or alarms when accessing nearby regular chests.

The different designs mean you no longer need to rely on memory or labeling systems to keep track of which chests are trapped—the resource pack handles the visual communication for you.
