A resource pack that makes Note Blocks light up in 25 splendid colors when powered with redstone.
Whereas some other Resource Packs exist to make Note Blocks more clear to the builder by showing what note or instrument the block is tuned to, this one is more for aesthetic purposes. Note blocks have no visual differences from vanilla when in their unpowered state, but light up in many colors to give the viewer a show when powered. As such it is especially useful for video recordings of your own Note Block creations.
The colors that these Note Blocks glow with match the colors of the note particles that they emit. Please note (pun lol) that they do not emit light to nearby blocks, but do glow in the dark on their own.
This Pack was made for 1.21.11 but will likely work on a few earlier and many later versions. It does not require any extra mods to run.
