    About

    Glowing Ores is a resource pack that gives Minecraft’s standard ore textures an emissive glow, making ores easier to spot in dark areas. Its glowing treatment covers the regular ores and, in the Nether, Nether Gold Ore, Ancient Debris, and Gilded Blackstone. The pack offers versions using either Programmer Art or newer Minecraft textures, so players can choose which visual style to use. The glow effect requires OptiFine with emissive textures enabled.

    Written from CurseForge . How we write it

    In-game changes

    It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.9 to 1.17.

    Keeps all of vanilla Minecraft's textures, models and sounds.

    Adds 21 block textures. In OptiFine's formats: glowing textures.

    Block textures are mostly 16 by 16 pixels.

    No harmful code found

    It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.9 to 1.17.

    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 · All 8 latest files checked, last on 16 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.
      8 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. None is for a recent Minecraft version, so the answer above is about all of them. 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.
