In vanilla adventure maps I've seen items with the enchantment glow, that have no enchantments listed when you hover over them. Is it possible to get od to drop items like this?

I can't seem to find what they've done, perhaps you can just edit an nbt tag, or perhaps they've added an enchantment/potion effect edited to have no name? I don't know a lot about that aspect of the game.

I'd like to have my special dropped items to have the glow to indicate that they are special at first glance, without adding an enchantment.

Yes, possible and planned but tricky as I want to avoid reliance on NBT code. I do have a plan of attack though :)

ooh... awesome, thanks
