    About

    Glowing Animated Ore / Ores is a resource pack designed to make ores easier to spot while mining. It gives Overworld and deepslate ores glowing outlines, distinct colors, and subtle pulse animations, helping players recognize ores such as diamonds, redstone, and emeralds, even in dark caves. The pack is intended for use with OptiFine or other emissive-texture support and is compatible with most shaders and other texture packs.

    Written from CurseForge . How we write it

    In-game changes

    Changes 19 block textures.

    Adds 19 block textures. In OptiFine's formats: glowing textures and custom colors.

    Block textures are mostly 16 by 16 pixels. 34 block and item textures are animated.

    Security

    No harmful code found

    We checked what is inside its files, without opening them in the game.

    Why we show this: a resource pack cannot run programs, but its file can hide one. Our checks look for known signs of harm. They cannot prove that a file is harmless. In the grade: malware means no grade.

    How we checked · The latest file checked, last on 17 Oct 2026
    • FilesWe download the files from Modrinth or CurseForge and look at what is inside them and what their code can do, without running them. Fixed rules tell what is harmful.
      1 latest file, for a recent version. Recent versions: those released in the last 2 years, plus 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, among the most played in modpacks. See each file in Releases

    Privacy

    Sends nothing

    A resource pack has no code that can connect to the internet, so it cannot send anything about you.

    AI

    No sign so far that AI was used to make it

    We looked for AI tools in its description, files and images and found none.

    We have not read its changelogs yet.

    Why we show this: some players and servers avoid projects made with AI. Not in the grade: using AI does not tell whether a project works well or is kept up to date.
