hello nice addon thanks! One issue i have with latest release of bedrock is that i got a black+pink square (the one for missing textures) at top of screen after moving glasses all over the hands / interface. When i remove this addon the square is removed too.

pink texture glitch in 1.21.113

I was able to fix this... in resource pack. Open the ui folder then open the file the say hud in a text editor. Near the top there are two lines the say anchor or position to "top_middle" , change both of these to "top-left" also there is a spot where it says list the size. Change this from whatever value is listed to 5 then save and relaunch your game.

Any idea how to apply this fix to a realm?

Confirmed it works on 1.21.80 and its AWESOME! But personally I'd like it achievement friendly. Oh, 1 problem, did I saw it right, if coal and iron have similar marking color? I think you don't have to stick to ore's original color to make it more distinguishable. Maan, now I just have to stroll casually, knowing where to dig! Hahaa, so happy!

Thank you for the update. I was happy to see everything was still working. I am thinking about adding the ability to change the color of the indicator entity. The system already uses basic colors with dark and light versions, so it's technically possible.

BTW: Be sure to check out 1.1.0, the darker colors don't hide as easily now that all the entities have a glowing effect.

if you made it like Java edition scannable mod it will be a proper masterpiece your popularity will too much increase please make it like Java edition scannable mod then it will be a balanced mode not over easy not over hard
1
I just wanted to say you make and masterpiece this mod is so good but one disadvantage is that it is over powered means by making glasses one time you can mine unlimited Ore you should make it something like Java editions scannable mod please try your best make it something like Java scannable mod
1
is this compatible with other addons/mods ? I have addons that have custom ores so wondering if the goggles will locate these as well ?
1
Right now it only works with Vanilla ores.

I have designed it to be expandable, but I'm still waiting for more interest in specific ore addons.
1
huw do I craft it?
1
It's in the description...

You only need 1 leather, 1 piece of the ore type (gold ingot, diamond, etc...), and 1 spider eye.
1
Does it use experimentals?
1
Nope. No extras need to be turned on for it to work.
1
It still works.
