Do I actually need OptiFine for this to work?

Yes, OptiFine is required. Without it the textures won't display correctly and ores will just look like vanilla.

Does this change how ores generate or just how they look?

Just the look. Ore generation and drop rates are completely untouched. It's purely a visual change.

What resolution is the pack?

16x, same as vanilla Minecraft. It won't hurt your performance at all.

Will this conflict with other texture packs I'm using?

It can. If you're stacking resource packs, load Huge Ores last in the pack order so its ore textures take priority over others.

Does it work on Minecraft versions newer than 1.20.2?

It's built and tested for 1.20.2, 1.20.1, and 1.19.4. Newer versions might work but there are no guarantees.

Huge Ores Resource Pack (1.20.2, 1.19.4) - Texture Pack

Huge Ores is a texture pack that does exactly what the name says: it makes ores huge. Instead of the usual subtle specks you’d almost walk past, every ore block becomes a giant, hard-to-ignore formation. Mining stops feeling like a chore and starts feeling like you’re actually finding something worth stopping for.

What It Changes

The pack retextures every standard ore type so the ore material takes up far more visual space on the block. Coal, iron, gold, diamond, emerald, lapis, redstone, copper, all of them get the oversized treatment. Same block underneath, but now you can spot it across a cave without squinting. It’s a small change that makes a real difference in how mining feels day to day.

Actually Useful, Not Just Pretty

Strip mining is fine, but caving gets a lot more rewarding when you can actually see the ores you’d normally walk right past. The enlarged textures make resource gathering faster and more satisfying. This one’s genuinely worth trying if you spend any real time underground.

Requirements

You need OptiFine installed for this pack to work correctly. It will not display properly without it.

Version Compatibility

Works with Minecraft 1.20.2, 1.20.1, and 1.19.4. The pack is 16x resolution, so it runs fine on pretty much any hardware.
