Resource packs can change the textures, audio and models of Minecraft. The vast majority of published resource packs focus on changing the textures or visual apperance of the blocks and objects in the game. Texture packs can completely change the default look and feel to become realistic, cartoon, medieval or cute and colorful. Some packs focus on updating the user interface, specific tools, items or the enviroment including the terrain, water, sky, sun and the moon. Novice and professional graphic artists have the freedom to change all textures in the game!

The best pack is subjective to each of us but fortunately there are thousands to choose from, mix and match, download and try out! Everyone has different tastes and Minecraft allows artists to create every type of texture pack you can imagine. With over 40k texture packs published in the past 10 years, you are bound to find the right texture pack for you. Once you find the best Minecraft texture pack, favorite it and you'll get notified when the author updates! It's always exciting to see a notification that your favorite pack is ready for download!

Once you find a resource pack that you like on Planet Minecraft, review the download options provided by the author. A downloadable Java Edition texture pack will save as a .zip file on your computer or device. If the resource pack is for Minecraft Bedrock Edition, it saves as a .mcpack file. Sometimes, you may have to visit another website to download the pack. After saving the resource pack file, follow our guide on how to install Minecraft Texture Packs.

If you're interested in creating textures for Minecraft then you'll need a graphics editor, motivation, artistic talent and time. There are many editors available including Aesprite, Photopea, Photoshop and even Microsoft Paint all of which will edit Minecraft graphics. It will be exciting to see your first custom texture in Minecraft and after that finishing a texture pack is mainly a matter of time and dedication. You can share your pack progress with the Minecraft community to get feedback and motivation to continue on your artistic journey! Learn how to create a Minecraft Texture Pack.

This is a list of recently updated resource packs. Here you can browse thousands of awesome Minecraft resource packs and texture packs that will transform your world beyond recognition.

CONSIDER: I KNOW THAT YOU CAN EASILY USE ANVILS TO CHANGE AN ITEM TO A SPECIFIC NAME, BUT I WANT CERTAIN BLOCKS CHOSEN BY ME TO GENERATE WITH DIFFERENT NAMES, GIVING MINECRAFT A NEW INTERESTING THING TO LOOK FORWARD TOO.

Doing this myself really is hard, and most of the videos are extremely difficult to follow. Majority of them are outdated anyway, and it seems like there is just a simple way to configure item/blocks names with resource packs. Cant you just bring up a folder in a resource pack and change the names? It doesn't make any sense!

But honestly, this really is important and I need it answered. I'm going to make something like Hermitcraft GM 4 with different texture packs and vanilla mods, and with different names it makes Minecraft even more into the future development and you're playing modded. Thanks, Minecraft community!

I've made three resource packs from the same template. They are all in my resource packs folder, but only one shows up in the menu. One of the two that don't show up used to show up, the other I just completed and I have never been able to test. After scouring the internet for about an hour and try every fix i could find, nothing has changed. So I decided to ask my own question. And no it's not zipped, but I run Sphax unzipped just fine, and my other resource packs work fine unzipped, so no, that won't help.

I'm here because I was having a very similar problem. I've just managed to solve it, and I figured, even if this question is a bit old by now, maybe something I did will be helpful for you, or for whomever comes along next.

I was trying to mix and match some textures from my favorite resource packs. I found that, when I tried to modify the pack description in pack.mcmeta (the text after description:), even the tiniest bit - like deleting a character and then putting it back - Minecraft was immediately unable to recognize my resource pack. Here's what I did:

It doesn't make a difference if they are Zipped or not. When you open the Zipped/unzipped folder you should see another folder named aspects. If you don't see that I think I found you're problem... You Just move the Folder that contains the aspects folder to your resourcepacks folder.

Before building your first Add-On for Minecraft: Bedrock Edition, you need to create a pack to hold your custom content. There are two types of packs that a creator can make: resource packs and behavior packs. For this tutorial, we're going to be focusing on resource packs.

We will start by creating a folder called My_RESOURCE_Pack. Technically you can name this folder anything you want, but the other folders have to be named exactly as specified in this tutorial so that Minecraft knows where to find the information.

Minecraft parses the information from the manifest file and displays it in the Add-On section of the game. Inside the file, the information is split into two separate sections: Header and modules. The header section contains the overall information for the pack, while the modules section contains the dedicated packages information. To create the manifest.json file:

A Universally Unique Identifier (UUID) is a unique number used to identification purposes. For Minecraft, the UUID is used to define a specific pack and to prevent any duplicate software from causing issues. For the header and modules, there will need to be two different UUID numbers entered in each of the "uuid" fields between the quotes. You can get UUIDs from an online UUID Generator such as

With the manifest file completed, you can now start adding custom content to Minecraft. Let's get started by applying a new texture to the Vanilla dirt block. The first part of the process involves creating a folder structure to hold the custom texture.

Pack Stacking is how content is loaded on top of Vanilla content, causing each object that has the same name in both packs to be overwritten by the latest applied pack. In our example, the original dirt texture is overwritten by the custom texture.

With a custom texture now a part of your Minecraft world, it's time to see how behavior packs alter existing entity behaviors. In our next tutorial, you will add aggressive behavior to a normally peaceful cow.

The resource pack system provides a way for players to customize textures, models, music, sounds, languages, texts such as the end poem, splashes, credits, and fonts without any code modification.

Resource packs can be placed in the folder resourcepacks within the .minecraft folder. Each resource pack is either a sub-folder or a .zip file within the resourcepacks folder. Once in the folder, a resource pack can be added from the options, where resource packs can be moved between "Available resource packs" and "Selected resource packs". "Selected resource packs" also contain the default assets on the bottom, which cannot be removed.

A resource pack can be bundled with a world by saving it as a .zip file under the name resources.zip and placing it directly in the world's folder. When playing the world, that resource pack appears as the default right above the default resource pack.A resource pack can be set on a server by adding a link to a .zip file download after the line resource-pack= in the server.properties file. Users then have an option of whether to download the resource pack or not. Resource packs can also be forced on a server using resource-pack-required=true in the server.properties file. Rejecting the resource pack disconnects the player from the server.

Resource packs can create language files of the type .json in the folder assets//lang. Each file either replaces information from a file of the same name in the default or a lower pack, or it creates a new language as defined by pack.mcmeta.

Each line in the .json file is in the standard json format of "identifier":"name" followed by a comma in case it is followed by another value in the next line. identifier is what the game uses to look up the name for something, and as such it should not be translated or changed. name is the name that is displayed. For example, stone in the default language file is "block.minecraft.stone":"Stone", with block.minecraft.stone being the identifier, and Stone being the displayed name. Blank lines are ignored. The file needs to be valid JSON syntax, meaning it starts with a , has a comma after every key value pair except the last one, and ends with a .

Blocks use a block state file from assets/minecraft/blockstates to determine which model is loaded for each variant from the folder assets/minecraft/models/block. Meanwhile, each item has an item model in assets/minecraft/models/item to determine its model, which either loads from a block's model, contains data for its own custom model, or uses the default "flat" or "entity" model.

Resource packs load additional sounds with the file type of .ogg. Each sound placed in the pack overrides the sounds from packs below, and packs also contain a file called sounds.json, which is placed within assets/minecraft. Unlike most other files in resource packs, sounds.json merges sound information from packs below the top pack, rather than each sounds.json file overriding the previous completely.

For block or item textures to function, they must have equal width and height (or height that is a multiple of the width if animated); otherwise it appears as a magenta and black checkerboard. For most other textures, the file is stretched to fit the required dimensions.
