The ores are really darker and more difficult to discern in a subtle way without Optifine. With this patch, you may also utilize Optifine to see through the dark in a subtle way. The texture is based on the redstone block to ensure compatibility with most packs (if the target pack has a rather unusual redstone block the square might not be as obvious as in default)

Turn off smooth lighting as well so you can view the buried ores.Ī red square appears on monster blocks (silver fish blocks). This is why the sides of blocks do not always render.Optifine is a must-have for the added nightvision effect.

Place a solid block above the hole, high enough that you can walk underneath. To begin, dig a 1-deep hole, and surround it with bottom slabs.

1 sand (or other cubic, gravity-affected block).This method works by gravity-affected blocks landing at the player's feet and piling up to the player's eye level. When you are ready to trigger the glitch, enter sneak mode, and your eyes will lie below the top of the slab. Instead, place the sand above where you want it to land, then place the slab as normal.

For the location that was the piston head, placing the full block is tricky, as you cannot look at a suitable surface. Therefore, you can destroy the redstone, including the pistons, and surround yourself further. After you pull the lever, the x-ray glitch does not happen yet. Surround yourself with additional blocks, with slabs on top, to maximize visibility. The lower piston has a solid block in front, while the upper piston has a bottom slab. To set this up, start with the same setup as before, but place 2 pistons (1 at head height and one at foot height). This should include at least 1 sand or other gravity-affected block.To x-ray downward, you need the following: When you are ready, activate the lever, and the glitch will begin almost immediately. In this case, the player "x-rays" through blocks immediately in the front.Īgain, you may wish to surround your head with top slabs wherever possible, to maximize visibility. However, it is possible for the camera to be inside a block, but the game does not register that the player is inside. Normally, the camera is inside a transparent block, unless the player is suffocating, in which case the game renders blocks differently. For this purpose, transparent generally means that the player can see through the block, although lava is also transparent for this purpose. If others catch you cheating, they can forbid you to do something or even ban you off the server.įor time efficiency, the game only renders block surfaces if there is a transparent block between the surface and the player. For most servers, this can count as cheating because you can see the surroundings for mobs, loot chests or precious ores. Make sure that you're allowed to use this glitch in servers, though. If you are in the Nether, you can use x-ray glitches to locate fortresses and bastions. They can also help you find end portal rooms once you are near a stronghold. X-ray glitches are useful for locating underground structures such as dungeons and mineshafts.
