FAQ

• Does this work with Bukkit/Spigot/Paper?
  • No guarantees. I have experienced countless issues with these modded servers breaking vanilla behavior that this pack requires.
• Does this work with Optifine?
  • Yes.
• Does this work with other resource packs?
  • In 1.16+, items in the preview will look as they do in your personal resource pack, but blocks will appear with vanilla textures.
  • In earlier versions, both items and blocks will use vanilla textures. Also, the pack may conflict with other packs that override private use characters.
• What happens if players don’t have the resource pack?
  • They will see the vanilla shulker box tooltip, though it may contain a few extra lines.
• How do I disable/enable ender chest previews?
  • In 1.16+: /function tryashtar.shulker_preview:config/show_settings
  • In earlier versions, there are two functions in .meta
• How do I completely uninstall the pack?
  • After disabling the pack with /datapack disable, the following artifacts will remain and must be cleared manually:
    • The shulker_preview scoreboard objective. This can be removed with /scoreboard objectives remove shulker_preview.
    • In 1.16 and earlier, a forceloaded chunk near the worldborder. This can be removed with /forceload remove 29999977 9832. If you wish, you can also delete the region file containing this chunk: r.58593.19.mca.
    • The temporary values saved to NBT storage. This can be removed by deleting the command_storage_tryashtar.shulker_preview.dat file from your world’s data folder.
    • Any existing shulker boxes will still show the preview in the tooltip. To remove it, simply place and break the shulker box after the pack has been disabled.
• It’s not working for me!
  • First, please follow these instructions to diagnose and solve some very common issues.
  • If that didn’t fix your problem, feel free to message me on twitter (@tryashtar) or discord (@tryashtar#7885) and I will be happy to help.
