Soartex Invictus - Modded

Invictus is a high-definition 64x graphics replacement for Minecraft that focuses on clean visual aesthetics and minimalist design. This project continues the work on the iconic Soartex resource pack by Soar49, now receiving a new incarnation with thousands of updated textures.

The project creator admits spending most of their time working in graphic editors, so public releases don't happen very often, but each one includes a significant amount of new content. For those who want to follow the development more closely, there is an open GitHub repository available.

Unique Features

The main difference between Invictus and the original is the bright and rich color palette. Grass, foliage, and vegetation have gained color depth thanks to a special purple presaturation technique. The resource pack was designed with minimization of "tile patterning" effects and elimination of anti-aliasing artifacts in mind.

Technical Improvements:

• Mipmapping optimization using alpha threshold values
• Updated world generation textures with Repeat CTM support
• Completely reworked textures for stone, grass, and gravel
• Modern textures for most items
• Integrated shader for additional brightening of light areas
• Comprehensive normal and specular mapping system

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it allowed to distribute this resource pack? Public redistribution is currently not permitted. For creating mix-packs, permission must be obtained.

Is the creation of Invictus based on Soar49's textures legitimate? Yes, Soartex is in the public domain, as confirmed by the creator himself: "You can mix Soartex, create a continuation and distribute it. The customizer can also be continued and freely released to the public."

Why do some textures resemble the Fanver version? All graphic elements added by Invictus were created by the Shoeboxam and GoldBattle team. The Soartex Fanver license permits original artists to reuse their own textures in other projects.

The resource pack seems incomplete, where can I track progress? Development continues constantly - we focus on quality, not quantity. Progress can be tracked through GitHub repositories for vanilla and modded versions.

Are Optifine or MCPatcher needed? The resource pack will work without them, but to get the full experience with CTM effects, custom skies, and special visual effects, we strongly recommend installing them.

Main Differences from Soartex Fanver

Invictus offers a significantly brighter color scheme with deep, rich shades of green and foliage. Technically, the project is optimized for better display with enabled anti-aliasing filters. Virtually all content related to world generation has been completely updated using modern texturing technologies.
