      An ancient favorite of mine is Aageon's Bumpmaft, started in alpha 1.1, shortly? before the Halloween update and was one of the first 128x packs. Assets were used in other HD packs at the time. Unfortunately the last version for 173 is impossible to find, and the only remnant is a beta 1.4 version.

    I think the modding of the game is also more extensive now and texture packs can clash with modded items so less people use textures

    • @redcrafterlppa303
      @redcrafterlppa303 Před 9 měsíci +11

      I never saw a texture pack clash a mod. I think mods are still part of the problem as it is impossible that every mod supports every texture pack and reversed. Leaving vanilla styled 16bit mod items and blocks mixed into a better looking high resolution world. So it's better to have a uniform look than to have some parts high res. Back in 1.7.10 where sphax supported 70% of my mod pack I simply mangled together the remaining 30% and got 100% coverage pretty easily. Nowadays that would be as much work as building an entire vanilla pack.

  • @EmorettOfficial
    @EmorettOfficial Před 11 měsíci +638

    About the downward trend of packs that overhaul the look of the game, it’s interesting to see that 99% of texture packs made today are meant to be vanilla-adjacent. And I think the reason for this has to be the meteoric rise in popularity of recent SMP Minecraft CZcams where collaboration with the community is a big part of the equation. And using default textures just makes the translation much easier for the community

    • @tristantheoofer2

    • @cptcorn7707
      @cptcorn7707 Před 11 měsíci +48

      It's also about the modding scene. You are essentially forced to have blocks and items that fit the feel of the game. When there's 5000+ mods this becomes impossible since most packs are by one person. You would need a big team of developer to accomplish this.

    • @zepar9837
      @zepar9837 Před 10 měsíci +18

      also the vanilla block textures are like really good now. they've worked very hard on making them cohesive and appealing and I think that's indicative of Texture packs decline

    • @cptcorn7707
      @cptcorn7707 Před 10 měsíci

      @@zepar9837 My texture pack (seen in Minecraft Newbies) was declining in viewership before Jappa's overhaul. The last year it had any relevance on the Internet was 2016 and the most downloaded version of my texture pack is for 1.7.10 followed by v1.12. Also there's many texture packs wanting to go back to pre Microsoft versions due to Microsoft's lack of support for developer textures.
      These are the factors:
      1) The existence of Bedrock Edition which has horrible UI that consists of 1600 textures. This is worth 4 mods. Although uploading UI is optional, I would still prefer to upload a mostly complete pack.
      2) More textures in the vanilla game. Although the content of Terraria and even some mods blow vanilla out of water, the barrier to entry for a successful pack that lots of downloads is a lot higher because your competing with packs with Optifine, CTM, cool variant textures, and features usually used in optifine which are not seen in the base game.
      3) More options to customize than Painterly Pack (Painterly is even included in lots of mods like Chisel) with the addition of resource packs which allow for way more interesting content than just prettier default or overhauls like SMP's Revival.
      4) No conflicts with mod textures in default and even mod textures have improved in making textures due to Jappa's overhaul of the vanilla textures which set a new standard.
      5) A need to hustle in the real world as a result of inflation in the housing market causing people to simply not have time for making anything on their spare time. Most projects that take off are made by multiple people, not a single individual and the ones that are made by individuals take longer to make.
      6) Microsoft pulling stunts like Chat Reporting which create distrust in the community.

      I think another reason is that this was around the time they got renamed from texture packs to recourse packs. I would like to see a graph of "textures" and "recourse" combined and normalized. I think the graph would look smoother and higher for texture/recourse packs.

    Man that's a lot of nostalgia, it's really been a while.
    Back in the beta days texture packs were extremely popular, and I loved switching from one to another to view and experience the same world differently.
    I even dabbled in making a couple of themed packs back then, although I don't think anyone would remember them (Albion, Deuteros, Avaritia).
    My absolute favorite one from that time was the original "Doku's RPG", that came a lot earlier than Dokucraft. It was really a breath of fresh air back then, especially the white flower textures on leaves and grass, as well as the ores.
    I also remember fondly the Sanguine and Arid high res packs back then. Both superlative.
    Last but not least...Isabella. I could not for the life of me understand how this pack was 16x, the detail and the pixel art on it was bonkers!

    One pack that is especially nostalgic to me that wasn't mentioned is Honeyball's MeineKraft texture pack. It's a 64x64 pack that started all the way back in Beta 1.3, right around when i started to play. The reason it's very nostalgic for me personally is that Gronkh (one of Germany's biggest CZcamsrs at the time) actually used this modpack, which made it super popular at the time, as everyone and their mother watched his Let's Play series. Surprisingly, the Texture Pack is actually still going, with Honeyball updating it to this day. I think they even made a special version for Gronkh, in which, for example, the shears were a glove (the reason it was a glove is that he used to have this running gag where he would shear sheep by spanking them with a shovel, back before shears were added)

    But then I you mentioned the Aether and it unlocked so many memories. Yes, I found the texturepack because it had mod support. And because it had mod support, I began making my own personal textures of other mods in the dokucraft style.
    I was 12 and had no artistic ability, but it was a fun project I remembered all the way back then haha.

    my favorite texture pack ever was this one called goodvibes. it was only for 1.13 (unless its miraculously updated since then!) which was when I first started playing. It gave everything such a light, colorful feel which fit my singleplayer peaceful mode style at the time, and spiced up the look of certain blocks in a way I really enjoyed as someone who likes building a lot. For a few years after, whenever minecraft updated I would even copy over the colormaps from goodvibes to whatever texture pack I ended up using for the update, because nothing could ever beat the look of goodvibes water in my eyes lol.
    Around the same time too I had a 1.12 world where I played around with a lot of mods like Forestry, and for that I used Jolicraft. Def brought back memories when you mentioned it!

    I actually did forget about Ovo's! I used that one for a good couple of months, at least, but i don't remember when. It was great, though!
    One thing that I think bears mention is how the scope of a resource pack has changed over the years. There are 1,404 items/blocks in 19.4, more in 1.20! And that's not even factoring in blocks with more than one texture, like sandstone or the crafting table! Then there's other miscellaneous textures, like the GUI and the grass overlay. If you're trying to make a current version resource pack, you almost have to go into it with a team, and the days of "I'm going to make a quick texture pack for this game i love" are long gone.
    Factor in that SMPs are probably more popular now than ever, and that building techniques have advanced by insane amounts and all but require the vanilla textures to look right, and it's no wonder there are less resource packs being made now than in MC's infancy. The scope was becoming an issue in 2014-2016, becoming so massive that it lead people to leave the community altogether.
    It's certainly not bad that MC has so many blocks and items today, but the balance it once had that allowed for all these packs to be produced was lost, unfortunately.
