2. Once the ZIP file is downloaded, launch a new or existing instance of Minecraft.
3. Head over to the Options tab on the home screen.
4. Once opened, navigate to the tab marked Resource Packs.
5. Now, click on the button marked Open Pack Folder.
6. Drag and drop your downloaded X-ray pack ZIP file into this folder.
7. Go back to Minecraft and look for the X-ray pack in the list of available packs.
8. Once located, hover over the pack and click the arrow button to apply it to your game.

It is recommended to make sure that the X-ray resource pack is above the default Minecraft pack to prevent the native settings from overriding and stopping it from working.

Once completed, click on "Done" and head back to the loading screen. You can now head into a new or existing world and try out your newfound X-ray superpowers to discover the secrets of your world.
