Resource pack

The default textures on the left side, and a custom resource pack (Rodrigo's Pack 8x8) on the right.

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. They are often used together with data packs to add new content to the game.

Java Edition

Behavior

The default resource pack settings.

Each resource pack is either a directory or a ZIP archive (with .zip extension). Resource packs can be added by placing them in the  resourcepacks directory within  .minecraft, or by dragging and dropping onto the "Select Resource Packs" screen, which copies them there automatically. Resource packs present in the directory can then be managed from the options, where they can be moved between "Available" (disabled) and "Selected" (enabled), and reordered.

Resource packs load their assets based on the order they appear in on the "Selected" list. The bottom-most pack loads first, then each pack above it replaces or merges loaded assets with ones it contains.

Built-in resource packs

There are currently three resource packs that are included as part of the game.

Pack name	Pack description	Description
Default	The default look and feel of Minecraft (built-in)	Selected by default, can't be unselected, always at the lowest priority.
Programmer Art	The classic look of Minecraft (built-in)	The old (pre-1.14) textures. They are not updated when the game receives new textures.
High Contrast	Enhances the UI contrast of Minecraft (built-in)	Increases the contrast of menu guis.

Preloaded resource packs

A ZIP archive resource pack can be bundled with a world by placing it in the world directory under the name resources.zip. 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 setting resource-pack to an HTTP(S) URL pointing to a ZIP archive resource pack in server.properties. Players then can choose if they want to download the resource pack or not when joining. Players can also be forced to accept the resource pack by setting resource-pack-required=true. Rejecting the resource pack disconnects the player from the server.

More than one directory for different namespaces may exist under the  assets directory.

Contents

A resource pack is identified by Minecraft based on the presence of  pack.mcmeta in the root directory.

The root directory also contains an optional PNG image called  pack.png, which appears as the thumbnail for the pack on the resource pack selection menu.

Language

Language files are JSON files, which contain text data translated to different languages. They are located in  assets/namespace/lang and named  language code.json. Languages other than default can be defined in  pack.mcmeta.

• [NBT Compound / JSON Object] The root object.
  • [String] ID: Displayed translation for the text ID.

A language file consists of an object containing ID and translation pairs. The ID uniquely identifies any translatable text in the game, and the translation is displayed as that text when the language is selected. For example, block.minecraft.stone is the ID of the text used for the name of the stone block, and it's translation in the en_us language is Stone.

Language files are merged with other selected packs, so any names that are not present are loaded from packs of lesser priority.

Models

Model files are JSON files with the extension .json, which determine the shape and textures of blocks and items.

Blocks use a block state file from  assets/minecraft/blockstates to determine which model is loaded for each variant from  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.

Models and block states used in packs below the top one are still loaded unless overridden in the top pack, which may cause some textures and models used by the top pack to no longer be loaded.

Sounds

Sound files are Ogg Vorbis audio files (with the extension .ogg), which provide audio such as music and sound effects for the game.

sounds.json is a JSON file, which defines how sound files are used in game. This file is merged with other selected resource packs instead of being overriden.

Textures

The "missing model" for invalid or missing models, prominently using the black and magenta "missing texture".

Textures are image files in PNG format, which provide images to be used as textures for models such as items, blocks and mobs.

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.

Most solid blocks turn any transparent area fully opaque. Some other blocks, which have "cutout" transparency (like glass) turn all pixels that are less than 10% opaque fully transparent and all other pixels completely opaque. Every other block renders textures with semi-transparency as-is. All items and any blocks or entities that are semi-transparent by default support semi-transparency.

If a texture does not exist in any resource pack, including the default, the missing texture appears in its place. As of 1.19.1, six such cases exist in the vanilla resource pack, all particle-related.

Atlases

Atlas files are configuration files, located in  atlases, that control which textures are included in the atlases.

Animation

Block, item, particle, painting, item frame, and status effect icon ( assets/minecraft/textures/mob_effect) textures support animation by placing each additional frame below the last. The properties of the animation are then controlled by placing a file in JSON format named like the texture file, but with .mcmeta suffix. For example, the animation properties file for stone.png would be stone.png.mcmeta.

• [NBT Compound / JSON Object] The root tag
  • [NBT Compound / JSON Object] animation: Contains data for the animation
    • [Boolean] interpolate: If true, Minecraft generates additional frames between frames with a frame time greater than 1 between them. Defaults to false.
    • [Int] width: The width of the sprite, in pixels. This is unused in vanilla's files but can be used by resource packs to have frames that are not perfect squares. Defaults to the image's width if "height" is defined, and the smaller of the image's dimensions if it's not.
    • [Int] height: The height of the sprite, in pixels. This is also unused in vanilla, but can be used by resource packs to have frames that are not perfect squares. Defaults to the image's height if "width" is defined, and the smaller of the image's dimensions if it's not.
    • [Int] frametime: Sets the default time for each frame in increments of one game tick. Defaults to 1.
    • [NBT List / JSON Array] frames: Contains a list of frames. Defaults to displaying all the frames from top to bottom.
      • [Int] A number corresponding to position of a frame from the top, with the top frame being 0.
      • [NBT Compound / JSON Object] A frame specifies a frame with additional data.
        • [Int] index: A number corresponding to position of a frame from the top, with the top frame being 0.
        • [Int] time: The time in ticks to show this frame, overriding "frametime" above.

If the animation properties file does not exist in the pack and the texture does, the game assumes the texture is not animated. If no .mcmeta file exists for a texture with unequal dimensions, the texture appears as a purple and black checkerboard.

By defining "width", the frames can be placed side-by-side, and by defining both "width" and "height", they can be arranged as a table. In this case, they will be ordered row by row, top to bottom, left to right.

Villagers

Textures from assets/minecraft/textures/entity/villager and assets/minecraft/textures/entity/zombie_villager support a .mcmeta file in JSON format containing additional effects to apply to the hat layer. The file is contained in the same directory as the texture, and has the same name as the texture, except appended with .mcmeta. For example, the file profession/farmer.png can have a properties file called profession/farmer.png.mcmeta

• [NBT Compound / JSON Object] The root tag
  • [NBT Compound / JSON Object] villager: Contains data for the texture
    • [String] hat: Can be full, partial, or default (no .mcmeta file). Determines whether the villager's 'profession' hat layer should allow the 'type' hat layer to render or not. ​

If the .mcmeta file does not exist in the pack and the texture does, the game loads the default settings, rather than loading a .mcmeta file from a pack below that pack.

GUI

Textures from assets/minecraft/textures/gui/sprites support a .mcmeta file in JSON format containing scaling behavior of the texture. For example, the file button.png can have a properties file called button.png.mcmeta

• [NBT Compound / JSON Object] The root tag
  • [NBT Compound / JSON Object] gui: Contains data for the texture
    • [NBT Compound / JSON Object] scaling: Scaling behavior of the texture.
      • [String] type: Can be stretch (default), tile, or nine_slice. Determines the type of scaling method of the texture.
      • [Int] width: Number of pixels for this sprite to cover on-screen across its width. Only required if [String] type is set to tile or nine_slice.
      • [Int] height: Number of pixels for this sprite to cover on-screen across its height. Only required if [String] type is set to tile or nine_slice.
      • [Boolean] stretch_inner: If true, the inner parts of the texture will be stretched instead of tiled. Defaults to false. Only required if [String] type is set to nine_slice.​
      • [Int] border: The size in pixels that the border slices should cover on-screen. Only required if [String] type is set to nine_slice.
      • [NBT Compound / JSON Object] border: The size in pixels that the border slices should cover on-screen, respectively. Only required if [String] type is set to nine_slice.
        • [Int] left: Number of pixels of the left border.
        • [Int] top: Number of pixels of the top border.
        • [Int] right: Number of pixels of the right border.
        • [Int] bottom: Number of pixels of the bottom border.

Colormaps

Colormaps are 256×256 pixel images which tell the game which color to use in each biome. They are located in assets/minecraft/textures/colormap. The game contains two colormaps: foliage.png colors plants such as leaves (except birch and spruce) and vines, and grass.png colors grass and grass blocks. Colormaps can be disabled on individual blocks by removing the tintindex tag from the block model.

Properties

Textures from assets/minecraft/textures/misc support a .mcmeta file in JSON format containing additional effects to apply to the texture. The file is contained in the same directory as the texture, and has the same name as the texture, except appended with .mcmeta. For example, the file pumpkinblur.png can have a properties file called pumpkinblur.png.mcmeta

• [NBT Compound / JSON Object] The root tag
  • [NBT Compound / JSON Object] texture: Contains data for the texture
    • [Boolean] blur: Causes the texture to blur when viewed from close up. Defaults to false
    • [Boolean] clamp: Causes the texture to stretch instead of tiling in cases where it otherwise would, such as on the shadow. Defaults to false
    • [Int Array] mipmaps: Custom mipmap values for the texture

If the .mcmeta file does not exist in the pack and the texture does, the game loads the default settings, rather than loading a .mcmeta file from a pack below that pack.

Texts

Two text files in UTF-8 format and one JSON file exist in  assets/minecraft/texts. They are used to display specific untranslated text.

The file  end.txt contains the text of the end poem, using formatting codes to apply the colors to the two speakers, and with the text PLAYERNAME being replaced with the player's name. After that file is shown, credits based on contents of  credits.json are shown.​

The file  splashes.txt contains texts separated by LF line breaks used as splashes.

Fonts

A font file is a JSON file located at  assets/namespace/font within a resource pack and contains a list of providers that each define how different characters appear. The default font is defined by the font minecraft:default while the default font used by enchantment tables is defined by the font minecraft:alt.

The resource locations referenced in font providers should also include the file extensions, as there is no sole file extension used throughout.

• [NBT Compound / JSON Object] The root tag.
  • [NBT List / JSON Array] providers: A list of providers that make up this font.
    • [NBT Compound / JSON Object] A font provider. The contents depend on the value of that provider's "type" tag.
      • [String] type: The type of the font provider. Can be one of the following:
        • bitmap: A bitmap font.
          • [String] file: The resource location of the used file, starting from assets/minecraft/textures by default. Prefacing the location with <namespace>: changes the location to assets/<namespace>/textures.
          • [Int] height: Optional. The height of the character, measured in pixels. Can be negative. This tag is separate from the area used in the source texture and just re-scales the displayed result. Default is 8.
          • [Int] ascent: The ascent of the character, measured in pixels. This value adds a vertical shift to the displayed result.
          • [NBT List / JSON Array] chars: A list of strings containing the characters replaced by this provider, as well as their order within the texture. All elements must describe the same number of characters. The texture is split into one equally sized row for each element of this list. Each row is split into one equally sized character for each character within one list element.
        • legacy_unicode (removed): A legacy unicode font. This format is deprecated, prioritized only when the "Force Unicode Font" option is turned on.
          • [String] sizes: The resource location of a binary file describing the horizontal start and end positions for each character from 0 to 15. The file extension of the target file should be .bin. The resource location path is relative to the namespace root.
          • [String] template: The resource location inside assets/<namespace>/textures that leads to the texture files that should be used for this provider. The game replaces %s from the value of this tag with the first two characters of the hex code of the replaced characters, so a single provider of this type can point into multiple texture files.
        • ttf: A TrueType font or OpenType font. Despite its name, it supports both TTF and OTF.
          • [String] file: The resource location of the TrueType/OpenType font file within assets/<namespace>/font.
          • [NBT List / JSON Array] shift: The distance by which the characters of this provider are shifted.
            • [Float] Left shift, negative values are allowed.
            • [Float] Downward shift, negative values are allowed.
          • [Float] size: Font size to render at.
          • [Float] oversample: Resolution to render at, increasing anti-aliasing factor.
          • [String] skip: String of characters or array of characters to exclude.
        • space: Show chosen characters as spaces.
          • [NBT Compound / JSON Object] advances
            • [Float] character: The amount of pixels the character is moved to the right. Can be negative. Decimal numbers can be used for precise movement on higher GUI scales.
        • unihex: Replacement for legacy_unicode. Uses the GNU Unifont .hex format.
          • [String] hex_file: Path to a ZIP archive containing one or more *.hex files at the root (files in ZIP archive with different extensions are ignored). Does not walk recursively inside archive.
          • [NBT List / JSON Array] size_overrides: List of compounds that contain character ranges that should have widths different than auto-detected.
            • [NBT Compound / JSON Object] A size override.
              • [String] from: 1-character wide string of the character to start override range at. Inclusive.
              • [String] to: 1-character wide string of the character to end override range at. Inclusive.
              • [Int] left: Position of left-most column of glyphs in override range.
              • [Int] right: Position of right-most column of glyphs in override range.
        • reference: Links to another font file to be copied and included in this font. Guarantees the referenced provider is loaded only once. Inclusion is performed after all fonts are loaded.
          • [String] id: Resource location to another font provider.

All font providers also have an optional [NBT Compound / JSON Object] filter object.

• [NBT Compound / JSON Object] filter: An object defining when this provider is active. When the button's state and filter's state are equal, that provider is included.
  • [Boolean] uniform: Linked to "Force Uniform" button.
  • [Boolean] jp: Linked to "Japanese Glyph Variants" button.

Texture sheets

Minecraft generally does not store multiple different textures on sheets and instead stores them on separate files. The only current exceptions are experience orbs and moon phases.

Shaders

Shaders are a way for resource packs to change how the game is rendered. They are written in OpenGL Shading Language (GLSL).

Regional compliancies warnings

Regional compliancies warnings can be customized in  assets/namespace/regional_compliancies.json.

• [NBT Compound / JSON Object] The root tag
  • [NBT List / JSON Array] Region: Contains a list of warnings. Note that the key itself is an ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 region code determined by the device's locale setting.
    • [Int] delay: Optional. Defines how long should the game wait until showing this message in minutes. This can not be zero.
    • [Int] period: The time interval this message should be shown in minutes. This can not be zero.
    • [String] title: The translation identifier of the title of the message. A slot is provided for the translation string, containing how many times this warning has been shown.
    • [String] message: The translation identifier of the message. A slot is provided for the translation string, how many times this warning has been shown.

Bedrock Edition

Behavior

Similarly to skins, resource packs can be bought or made in Bedrock Edition. Users can download resource packs on the system itself with the .mcpack file names, if the game platform allows file importation. When these files are opened, they are automatically imported into the game without any need for file system access. Resource packs can also be put manually in the resource_packs folder in the com.mojang folder. Each resource pack must either be a sub-folder or a .zip file.

Resource packs can be applied on the Global Resources option from the settings menu from the main menu screen. Resource packs can be moved between "Active" and "My Packs". "Active" also contains the default assets at the bottom, and cannot be removed.

Resource packs load their assets based on the order of the packs on the list. The bottom-most pack loads first, then each pack placed above it replaces assets of the same name with its assets.

Default packs

One or more resource packs can be bundled with a world in the world settings. 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 bundling the resource pack in the world, and then re-uploading the world folder to the server. Users then have an option whether to use the resource pack or not if the texturepack-required option is disabled in the server settings and if the world has the "Require players to accept resource packs to join" option disabled. Resource packs can also be forced on a server by using the texturepack-required=true property on the server settings.

Folder Structure

Resource packs in Bedrock Edition use the following folder structure:

• (resource pack name)
  • biomes_client.json
  • blocks.json
  • manifest.json
  • pack_icon.png
  • sounds.json
  • animation_controllers

History

[hide]Java Edition
1.6.1			13w24a				Added resource packs, replacing the functionality of texture packs.
							Minecraft Texture Ender is available from Mojang to automatically convert 1.5 compatible texture packs to resource packs. See Java Edition 1.6.1/Resource pack changes for the list of file names changed.
1.6.2			reupload				Fixed distorted font when HD font is used.
1.7.2			13w36a				Added the ability to apply multiple resource packs at once.
							Servers can now recommend a default resource pack via the server-side resource packs system.
			13w42a				Moved files from assets/minecraft/music to assets/minecraft/sounds/music and files from assets/minecraft/sound to assets/minecraft/sounds.
1.7.4			13w47a				The description value of pack.mcmeta can now be raw JSON text format.
			13w48a				Removed the ability to change the Mojang logo.
1.8			14w06a				Added the ability to change the block models.
			14w07a				Resource packs can now be bundled with a map.
			14w25a				The model format now supports custom item models.
							Textures can now be specified for blocks and items.
							Added the interpolate tag for animations.
1.8.8			pre				Resource packs now display an error if the format number is wrong. At this time, it requires a format number of 1.
1.9			15w31a				Changed format number to 2, due to changes in the model system, such as item tags, multipart, and changes to display tags.
							Using resource packs with outdated display tags causes the models to seem abnormally up-scaled and the wielded block cannot be rotated in the hand, along with blocks in the inventory replaced with a 2D texture. This is similar to what happens when a model has no display tags. See here for an example.
1.11			16w32a				Resource packs version number changed to 3, due to the change that all files should have lowercase letters.
1.13			17w43a				The default resource pack can now be moved up and down, just like other resource packs.
			17w48a				Changed format number to 4, due to The Flattening. See Java Edition 1.13/Resource pack changes for the list of file names changed.
			pre7				Several punctuation characters in ascii.png were shortened by one pixel, either vertically or horizontally. A stray pixel on the Ø character was also removed.
			pre8				Several more punctuation characters in ascii.png were shortened and the @ was lowered by one pixel.
1.14			18w45a				Added "Programmer Art – The classic look of Minecraft" to the resource pack menu, due to the old textures being replaced by new ones in the Texture Update.
			19w06a				Significantly improved resource pack loading speed.
							Particles textures are now split into individual files.
			19w07a				Painting textures are now split into individual files.
			19w08a				Status effect textures are now split into individual files.
			19w09a				Particles are now configurable.
1.15			Pre-release 1				Changed format number to 5, due to texture mechanic changes in earlier snapshots.
1.16.2			Release Candidate 1				Changed format number to 6, due to changes to wall blocks made in 1.16 according to MC-197275.
1.17			20w45a				Changed format number to 7.
			21w05a				Improved performance when using many overrides on an item model.
							toasts.png GUI texture has a new icon for the bundle tutorial.
			pre1				The file credits.txt in assets/minecraft/texts was changed to credits.json, and the format also changed from plain text to structured JSON format.
1.18			21w37a				Added illageralt, the rune-like font from Minecraft Dungeons (currently usable only via commands).
			21w39a				Changed format number to 8, because inventory.png now contains an extra sprite for a thin-layout version of the effect list in the inventory.
1.18.2			22w06a				Added assets/minecraft/regional_compliancies.json to control the gameplay timer and in-game notice strings as to respect the compliance requirements in South Korea. For South Korea only by default.
