Description
Glowing Ores for RLcraft adds a soft glow to ore blocks so you can spot them in dark caves — only the ore chunks emit light, while the block keeps its normal shaded look.
What glows:
- Vanilla: diamond, emerald, gold, iron, lapis, quartz, redstone
- Ice and Fire: sapphire, silver
- Defiled Lands: scarlite, umbrium, hephaestite
- Scaling Health: crystal (heart shard) ore
What's changed from the original:

- Added glowing scarlite, umbrium, and hephaestite ores from Defiled Lands
- Added glowing crystal (heart shard) ore from Scaling Health

- Works with OptiFine emissive textures (suffix _g)
- No shaders needed, just OptiFine
- 16x resolution, fits seamlessly with default textures
- Made for 1.12.2 / RLcraft ( RLcraft Dregora's additional ores are not included in this pack )
Installation:
1. Install OptiFine HD U G5 for 1.12.2 (or newer)
