Comparing Ore Visibility in Different Light Levels
Understanding Glow Performance Across Brightness Levels
The pack's glowing effect functions consistently across all light levels, but visibility varies depending on your surroundings and current lighting conditions.
Testing Ore Visibility:
1. Mine into a cave system and observe ore glow with your torch on
2.
3. Compare visibility in deep caves (low ambient light) versus near the surface (higher ambient light)
4. Test in both stone and deep slate layers to see how depth affects perception
Best Conditions for Spotting Ores
Ores glow most noticeably in complete darkness or low-light environments. In brightly lit areas near lava or multiple light sources, the glow becomes less pronounced but still visible. The effect is most dramatic when exploring caves without additional lighting—the ore shimmer becomes your primary visual guide.
If you're mining in well-lit areas, you may need to look more carefully, but the glow still provides a subtle advantage over vanilla textures. The pack is most effective for deep cave exploration and strip-mining operations where ambient light is minimal.
