It’s a very comic-book-like texture pack with crisp lines, not a lot of noise, and patterns that tile nicely even for large walls, flat surfaces and big projects that use cobbstone or smooth stone. In the screenshot above you can see the Zombie skin and the Skeleton skin up close. The texture pack includes several new skins for just about every single mob. These include the Aether mod, Clay Soldiers, Better than Wolves mod, and even some GLSL shaders.


The texture pack also supports a good number of mods for the game that would add new items or blocks that would be unsupported by other texture packs. This doesn’t mean that everything appears flat though… there are definitely some creative uses of shading and shapes in some of the block textures.

It’s vector-based so the edges are always going to be smooth and crisp. I chose the 128x because it was the original and is the priority when it comes to updates and trying out new textures, etc. It comes in all flavors from 16x to 256x. That’s not always true and Sphax shows us that you can have an HD 128x pack and it not be ultra realistic. Read on for more screenshots of the texture pack as well as download links. The ultra-realistic ones are typically 128x or 256x just so they can fit more detail on each block surface. Most smooth packs are also smaller in resolution… either the default 16x or a 32x or sometimes a 64x. I love the ultra realistic packs but sometimes they just take away from the artistic-blocky feel of the game. I’ve always been a fan of “smooth” or “simple” texture packs. I haven’t done a mod or texture pack spotlight for Minecraft yet and thought I’d start with a new texture pack that I recently found that I really really like.
