# About
**Vanillin** is a semi-realistic resource pack for Minecraft, closely resembling vanilla (hence the name) but handpainted in an unique, stylized way by fantasy illustrator **@yevvie**. Vanillin attempts to fill the niche between cartoony and photorealistic, while keeping the original tone and vibrancy of the game.

# Features
### Architectural Integrity
Ever downloaded a pack mid-playthrough and applied it just to see your existing build suddenly look awful and out of place? No more disappointment like that! Vanillin keeps the balance of tone and color of original Minecraft block, making it so your build palette is just as smooth as it was before.
### Shader-free Beauty
Not everyone wants or can use shaders – this is why Vanillin is developed to look good without them. However, if you would like to use shaders with our pack we recommend [Complementary Shaders by EminGTR](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/customization/complementary-shaders).
# Compatibility
Texturing started at 1.19, although once the baseline of the pack is done more versions will be supported. The timeline of these updates highly depends on the funding to free up our artist’s queue and allow them to work full time on this pack.

VanillaStylized

# VanillaStylized
### Recommended Shader: Kappa, Nostalgia or SEUS PTGI

**VanillaStylized adds PBR textures on the basic Minecraft textures
which is used to make some relief on the blocks**

Vanilla Shine

– ## About
> `Vanilla Shine` is a `PBR` texture that just makes the blocks in your game more 3d and rough.
> __In the future it is planned to do the same with the textures of `items` and `enity` by making them 3d and rough__.
– ## Installation & Use
> Simply drag and drop the `file.zip` file into your path where your other texture packages are located. Example `.minecraftresourcepacks`.

> In order to use textures and they work, you `need shaders` that `support PBR` technology.
For example, you can use such shaders as: [**BSL**](https://modrinth.com/shader/bsl-shaders/) (the textures were developed using these shaders).
– ## ⚠️ Warning
> To make the textures as voluminous, you will need to customise the shaders, for example here is my BSL shader settings:
> “` #Sun Feb 25 00:40:19 EET 2024
> LIGHT_DR=255
> PARALLAX_QUALITY=512
> AMBIENT_DR=255
> DESATURATION_FACTOR=0.0
> LIGHT_SHAFT_STRENGTH=2.00
> DOF=true
> ADVANCED_MATERIALS=true
>DYNAMIC_HANDLIGHT=true
> “`
– ## You can also see a list of which blocks are fully finished, the status of what is done and what is not.

Vanilla PvP Improved

This pack is designed to improve PvP performance by making key visuals clearer and less distracting during combat. It features low fire, which reduces the size of fire on your screen so it doesn’t block your view when you’re burning, allowing you to keep track of opponents more easily. It also includes smaller items, meaning held item models take up less space, helping reduce visual clutter and making it easier to see enemies and important movements around you.

Combined with these tweaks, the pack helps you maintain better visibility, react faster, and stay focused in intense PvP situations, giving you a cleaner and more competitive gameplay experience.

Vanilla Changes

### ✨ Vanilla Changes: A Clean and Elevated Minecraft Experience

**Vanilla Changes** is a meticulously designed resource pack that delivers subtle but precise improvements to Minecraft’s visuals. It stays fully aligned with the original art style, refining details without altering the core identity. Every texture and adjustment is crafted to merge seamlessly with the default look, preserving the charm players expect.

From cleaner items to clearer GUI’s and small visual refinements that enhance your gameplay, **Vanilla Changes** elevates the experience without ever drawing attention to itself. It does not try to reinvent Minecraft; it improves what already works.

The pack is also structured with creators in mind. Assets are consistently named, neatly organized, and easy to navigate, allowing developers to adapt or extend the pack with minimal effort. It is built to be understood, modified, and expanded with confidence.

### ❓ Why Vanilla Changes?
Unlike most packs, this one delivers refinement without unnecessary additions. It is made for players who appreciate the vanilla style and want it presented at its highest quality.
**Vanilla Changes** does not attempt to correct Minecraft’s aesthetic; it elevates what already works and adds a few tasteful improvements where they matter.
The pack is also built for longevity, with a structure that allows fast updates so you can rely on using it on the latest Minecraft versions with minimal delay.

### 🎉 What’s New?
This pack introduces:
– **Visual refinements** that elevate the original style without distracting from it.
– **Quality-of-life features** that make the game feel smoother and more enjoyable.
– **Modernized textures** that remain faithful to Vanilla while offering a cleaner presentation.
– **Selective new elements** such as fractured tools, expanding the game’s visual identity without breaking it.

# Add-ons

*All Addons **require** the Base Pack to be installed*

Where can I find the Add-ons?

Add-ons are the only versions marked as Alpha. Their naming follows a strict format;

### What does the Version Number mean?
Add-ons always use this structure:

**Add-on-[version number]**
Example: Add-on-V3.2

The version number of an add-on always matches the Base Pack version it is designed for.
If the base pack is V3.2, the add-on will also be V3.2.

### How do I tell different add-ons apart?
Each add-on includes a clear name showing what it adds/changes:

**Add-on: [add-on name]**
Example: Add-on: Dark GUI

| Add-on | Description |
|——-|————-|
| ⬛ Dark GUI | Makes every GUI element darker |
| 🎄 XMas GUI | Adds some Christmas elements to the GUI |

…and a lot more!

**Icons and Colored text are only available in the following supported languages:**
– English (US, GB, AU, CA, NZ)
– Deutsch (DE)

…more languages soon!

Why do updates take so long?

Developing updates for Minecraft projects take time for a reason. Minecraft is an incredibly complex sandbox with near endless possibilities, meaning features need to be tested across many different scenarios to ensure they work as expected. This process alone is time consuming but essential for a stable experience.

Beyond that, development is not just implementation, it also involves designing and refining ideas. Creating features that feel polished and well integrated takes time, especially when aiming for a high standard.

We also have real life responsibilities that limit the time we can dedicate to these projects.

We are also doing this without any compensation meaning that this is not a job but a hobby and we are happy that this is the case.

In the end, we prioritize quality over quantity. We would rather release fewer, well made updates than frequent, unpolished ones.

Vanilla Upscaled by AI

This resource pack upscales the vanilla textures of the game 4X using a model trained for digital art. It may have some changes in the future.

## AI Upscaled textures

All of the textures of this resource pack are upscaled by AI. Only the pack icon was made by me. I used an AI to upscale the default textures of the game to see how it looks and i liked the final result even tho it needs a lot of little adjustments so i decided to publish for everyone to enjoy.

# About
**This resource pack fixes some issues with Minecraft’s textures and 3D models and adds small tweaks for a better gameplay.**

Current changes made by this pack
Rails

All types of rails are by default 2D and they’re also floating 1 pixel above the surface of the block beneath them. this pack fixes that by making rails 3D.

Show images

![fixed rail](https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/a4dbd3acd5ae90c6789f00885dd97e46ebb301e0.png)

Ladder

Ladders have just about the same problems as rails.
### Note:
when using this resource pack, ladders seem to have a darker texture compared to the vanilla texture, but as far as I know this is an issue with Minecraft’s lighting system and there is no problem with the 3D model or the texture in this resource pack.

Signs

When signs are placed on the side of a block, there is a 0.5 pixel gap between the sign and the block. This resource pack fixes this problem by changing the 3D model of signs. However, as signs are entities, this part of the resource pack doesn’t work without [Optifine](https://optifine.net/home) or [EMF](https://modrinth.com/mod/entity-model-features).

GUI

The default background of the player(or horse) charecter in some GUIs(like the inventory) is black and feels inconsistent. This resource pack fixes that by changing the the color of that part of the GUI.

Show images
Default

Leaves

The texture of the other sides of all leaves are not visible through the gaps in the vanilla game. This resource pack fixes this issue by changing the 3D model of leaves.

Note: [More Culling](https://modrinth.com/mod/moreculling) will not visualy effect this pack, but enabling “Fast” mode leaves culling might still improve performance.

Coming soon

These are the problems I’ve found and I’m currently working on. If you’ve found other problems with Minecraft’s default textures or models, please let me know in [my Discord server](https://discord.gg/QE9KnhzD).

Vines and leaf litters

Vines and leaf litters have the same problems as ladders and I’ll fix that soon.

Banners

Banners have the same problems as signs and I’m trying to fix that, but because of a bug, fixing this will take longer than expected.

## Attention!
**Some parts of this resource pack requires [Optifine](https://optifine.net/home) or [EMF](https://modrinth.com/mod/entity-model-features) to work!**

Vanilla Rabbits Plus

This resource pack aims to improve rabbits while staying true to Minecraft’s art style. Requires [Optifine](https://optifine.net/home)/[Entity Model Features](https://modrinth.com/mod/entity-model-features/version/bwjbN1G7)/etc.

This pack was inspired by Mojang’s redesigns of bats and vexes, and follows suit by:

– Making rabbits pixel consistent
– Making them visually simpler to better fit their small size
– Keeping their general appearance and shape close to vanilla, despite the above changes.

Model made by me in Blockbench, textures edited from Mojang’s by me.

Vanilla-Plus

The tools in Vanilla-Plus have been slightly redesigned to make them more functional and aesthetically pleasing.
more appealing. Tools like picks, shovels, and axes are now more recognizable while still fitting well with the vanilla style.

The game’s user interface (GUI) has been slightly adjusted for a clearer and cleaner look.
Menus, inventories and displays have been made more user-friendly without compromising the original charm.

Vanilla-Plus remains minimalistic, focusing on small but meaningful changes.
The texture pack strives to optimize aesthetics and usability without cluttering the game.

If you’re looking for a texture pack that slightly reworks tools, the GUI and some items in Minecraft to make the game more comfortable,
without compromising the vanilla style, Vanilla-Plus is the perfect choice for you. It provides a pleasant and clear gaming experience without changing the original Minecraft feel.
