This is a full walkthrough video of bugs, features, and settings as of right now. Early access is available to Patrons as a thank you for supporting my projects!

Fixed grass for 1.20.4

Grass was renamed in 1.20.3 or 1.20.4 to "short grass", which broke the textures. This update to part 1 of the resource pack fixes it. 

Here are 2 versions. 

version 026b does not replace the 3d grass model, use this if you use this pack over another pack with a fancier grass model that you like. 

version 026 LOWERS the grass model so that it do...

Rolling Updates to Early Access Shader

This post is going to be where I stick updates to the buggy new shader until it gets to a point that I feel like it's actually fully gameplay ready and deserves a new post.

Included are test configurations.

You can keep track of more granular progress and see screenshots on discord: https://discord.gg/S6F4r6K5yU 2024-01-24 00:53:12 +0000 UTC View Post

I'm back! and here's a small update to the buggy early access shader

This is mostly distant horizons compatibility stuff. To use it turn on shader settings/rendering options/distant horizons mode. Nothing is automatic yet, but it will be.

  Thank you everyone for the support! I hope to get the water and stuff fixed soon but I need to pace myself.

  I also want to add a yearly subscription for VERY cheap, as I think that's a better...

I am taking 3 weeks off to recover from a brain injury

I had a mysterious fall and got a brain bleed and am expected to need 2-3 weeks of recovery. Scans looked good so far, but my health can be complicated and could affect this. I feel present but everything is mentally exhausting and I just need to focus on rest and then recovery.

I hope you all enjoy what I've been trying to make over here, and thank you again for the interest and support!...

My Shader: Early Access Buggy Version

This is where progress is so far on the new shader. It's very buggy and very incomplete, but I'm making it available to Patrons in case anyone wants to play with it or help test, because I said somewhere I would release whatever I had done on new years. I don't feel like it's ready for a pubic release yet.

I need to take a few days off and then will try to get more progress done on it. 2024-01-01 23:41:56 +0000 UTC View Post

Here's the Resource Pack in one Spot

The partial updates got a bit scattered, so here it is together, with the small addition of the updated obituary graphic from the last episode. it has a few unused variations in the 'mods' zip, -which replaces the 'bop' part.

You can combine the parts together, they are just separate because of the upload size limit.

FEATURES and SETUP:

You can use this resource pack in any sh...

new textures, sorry about the last grass

New BOP textures, and this reverts the grass sides, i think optifine or my brain was broken when i was testing the grass sides before. shown are almost all the BOP textures, mahogony and the dead grasses are new.

Updated Grass & Dirt

This update to parts 1 and 'borders' of the resource pack features improved pbr values for dirt, and fixes grass blocks to properly show biome tinting on the sides. The dirt is generally rougher and less shiny, but still has some flecks in it. On the right side of the image you can see where it's kind of wet and muddy after a small rain shower. All dirt transitions  and borders have pbr va...

Now in 1.20.2 for Iris or Optifine

This is a Technical Update to make the resource pack work in Iris and Optifine for newer Minecraft versions. In my testing it now works in Optifine, and in Iris with Continuity, for both 1.19.2 and 1.20.2.  I plan on releasing more textures soon. I have more done for biomes o plenty, and some almost done for vanilla. As always, you can see what's done by watching my youtube videos, and see...

In case you aren't on discord

In case you aren't on discord, I have been focusing a lot on shader code for the last 2 months or so. Pictured above is the CTMPOMFIX shader, which is an edit of Chocapic13's shaders. It is and always will be free.

I started editing it to have an easy way for people to be able to play with my better 3d texture techniques without having to patch a shader themselves, then I...

Links and info:

Patreon seems to have changed how things work a little, and there is now the option for free followers too. While I'm checking this out, I just want to make sure everyone knows what's where since there are a few followers ( hi! ) and I'm not sure who came from where.

WHAT DO YOU GET AS A PATRON:

As a patron you get access to all of the things I'm working on. They ar...

3D Sand Prototype 256x Download

This is an update of part 3 of the 256x version of the resource pack. It can be used alone or with the other parts available here. Other resolutions for everything coming soon. Ask if you would like them. The shader shown is bliss with CTMPOMFIX patch. Links in the video.

3D Sand Prototype for Minecraft

This is available in an update to part 3 of the HD 256x version of the Resource Pack from the Future. The shader shown is bliss with the CTMPOMFIX patch. Links in the video.

Updated 32x 3D Textures Demo

This is an update of the free 32x version of the Resource Pack from the future for Minecraft, with seamless 3D texture variations. It has better transitions and edges than the old update, and a few more blocks. To clarify this is a low resolution alpha version.

First Taste of Proper 3D Textures, Updated 256x with transitions and edges

This is a few updated 256x textures with new 3D transitions and edges. Load part 1 "p1" on bottom, then the rest on top. The borders file is the edges and transitions. the "bop" file is optional textures for the 'biomes o plenty' mod.

This is still very early in development, so I still recommend stacking this on top of your favorite pack, and it requires a 2023-08-24 00:26:20 +0000 UTC View Post

32x Demo of a few textures

As seen on YouTube, Here's a few blocks to give a general idea of what I'm going for, and better showcase the Seamless POM technique. This is a low resolution alpha test version.

I am going to add better block borders and material transitions which will greatly improve visuals. (Like dirt between stones and grass growing onto neighboring blocks.)  And everything is p...
