Aura Ores
Simple Glowing Ores
What is this?
Aura Ores is a resource pack that adds an emissive glow to ores. It keeps the standard Vanilla textures but makes them visible in the dark, making mining easier without needing to place torches everywhere.

Requirements
Important: For the ores to glow, you must install a mod that supports connected/emissive textures. Without these, the pack will look like default Minecraft.
| Mod Loader | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Fabric | Continuity (Recommended) or OptiFabric |
| Forge / Neo | OptiFine |
Note: If using Continuity, make sure "Emissive Textures" is enabled in the resource pack settings.
Features
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| High Visibility | Spot Diamonds, Gold, and Iron easily in the dark. |
| Vanilla Style | Retains the original ore textures; only the colored parts glow. |
| Lightweight | Simple texture changes with minimal performance impact. |
