      ATTENTION Forum Database Breach   03/04/2019

      There has been a breach of our database. Please make sure you change your password (use a password manager, like Lastpass).
      If you used this password anywhere else, change that too! The passwords themselves are stored hashed, but may old accounts still had old, insecure (by today's standards) hashes from back when they where created. This means they can be "cracked" more easily. Other leaked information includes: email, IP, account name.
      I'm trying my best to find out more and keep everyone up to date. Discord (http://invite.gg/TerraFirmaCraft) is the best option for up to date news and questions. I'm sorry for this, but the damage has been done. All I can do is try to make sure it doesn't happen again.

Colour blind resource pack b79

15 posts in this topic

I'm having a really, really hard time mining some ores in some rock types. For instance, sphalerite in gneiss: http://imgur.com/90ZEbAl - in this picture the upper stone is sphalerite, and the lower is gneiss. I can't see any difference at all.

 

I'm looking for a resource pack that just make the ores somewhat more visible, but doesn't change any of the other blocks. Any tips?

I've always had trouble with sphalerite. If you can't find a resource pack, you could just find an identifying pixel, such as the light colored one in the upper left 5 pixels over from the left and 5 pixels down from the top. That approach is a little slow, but if you light up the area it can be reliable.

Thanks! Block heads worked like a charm :) Deleted all the stone textures and it became quite good :)

I'm actually kinda curious as to how anyone would tell that there was ore in that image. I can't tell, and I'm not colorblind.

That's a nice try Mr. Troll. (Or you are much more sarcastic than me)

I believe that he was responding to the image in the OP, which is indeed very hard to see the ore, and not the image of Block Head's ores.

OH! I'm really sorry, I did not even noticed that picture as it's in a link.

If you would like I could compile you a version of Faithful with higher saturation ore veins ;)That should do the joy if you prefer Faithful :)

You could also use Highlight Tooltips in NEI. They can be enabled in the world menu inside NEI options, they will tell you what block you are looking at ;)

Those aren't completely reliable in 79, and will often tell you the wrong stone type. The ore blocks also show up most of the time as just tile.Ore.name instead of anything you can actually  use to interpret what ore it is.

This is pretty much why I made the ores the way I did. Like, I can't see anything in the OP image either, and I'm not colorblind. You can just take any pack you like and delete everything that isn't the ore textures if you want everything else to look the same.
