Emissive Library Plus
I don't know my version or loader
Emissive Library Plus is a resource pack based on Emissive Library, You might be wondering why i made this variant, i did it because i thought it was missing a few things, for example:
- Accessibility for all versions above 1.17+
- More organized file.
- Simplicity.
- And why the original project was apparently abandoned.
Tutorial:
Well, to make your block/item/entity emissive, you just need to change the alpha (opacity) value of the pixel you want to glow to 254 instead of 255. This will make the pixel emissive.
You can take the files from this library and put them in your resource package, but I recommend linking this page as a dependency to make your life easier.
Here is the Vanilla Emissive Ores Example as an example for you to base yourself on, you are free to use it however you like :D
