# Sparkles ADDON: Alpha Islands<\/p>\n
This resourcepack changes the texture of every* blocks and mobs in Terralith’s really rare Alpha Islands and Alpha Islands Winter) biomes to an Alpha\/Developer counterpart or look. The base Sparkles pack is not required but still recommended.<\/p>\n
## Why can’t I see the textures?<\/p>\n
In order to see the custom block and mob textures, if on Forge, Optifine does work, but we no longer recommend Optifine in any scenario. Otherwise, for Fabric, download the following mods:<\/p>\n
– [[ETF] Entity Texture Features](https:\/\/modrinth.com\/mod\/entitytexturefeatures)
\n– Continuity<\/p>\n
Then, make sure the resourcepack is installed and applied and that you are in an Alpha Islands biome.<\/p>\n
