"The original look of Minecraft, continues living."

---→ REQUIRES THE MOD "ENTITY MODEL FEATURES" ←---

Once upon a time, Minecraft had a distinct, recognizable visual style - somewhat rough but full of soul and charm. Many players still feel nostalgia for those times, and this project represents a creative attempt to preserve that legacy, but with a unique focus. Unlike other resource packs that concentrate on early versions, we have dedicated ourselves entirely to the aesthetics of Minecraft versions 1.8-1.12 - the era preceding the major texture update.

PACP 2.1 Cherry Grove

What's Inside the Project?

The foundation of the pack lies in the skillful combination of original textures and meticulously crafted modifications. We experimented with connecting concepts once shelved by the developers with their final versions, and also reinterpreted previously existing textures for better alignment with the chosen style.

Essentially, it's a perspective on how Minecraft might have looked if the major texture update never happened - an intentionally imperfect artistic approach inspired by the legacy of the artists and programmers who worked on the game before Jappa. Some textures are executed at a high level, others retain the technical simplicity characteristic of that time.

A remarkable feature is the project's adaptation of this unique style even for content from version 1.13 - the first update with new graphics from Jappa.

PACP 2.1.2 Lush Caves

In the additional files section, you will find addons styled after beta and alpha versions of Minecraft.

Compatibility

PACP has partial functionality for most versions after the item renaming changes. Some specific issues may occur when reverting to version 1.17, where incorrect logo display is observed. We plan to release ports for older versions in the future.

PACP 2.1 Crimson Forest

My Discord server is open for anyone wishing to follow the development of this project and my other work. Development builds are also available there.

Creators and Contributions

The name you should check too: work of the lead artist. This is a true master who created the majority of original textures across all project variants - over 500 unique works!

A talented creator prepared updated skins matching the original artistic style, and performed the bulk of the work on adaptation for Bedrock Edition.

Vanilla Tweaks: We utilized some modifications to restore certain models and UI elements (primarily in the addons for beta and alpha versions).

Brilliant fan of the project: excellent full-block chest models from the project.
