'''Global Resources''' is a [[Minecraft:settings]] menu exclusive to ''[[Minecraft:Minecraft]] [[Minecraft:Bedrock Edition]]'' that allows players to apply [[Minecraft:Texture pack|texture packs]], [[Minecraft:Behavior pack|behavior packs]], and [[Minecraft:user interface]] (UI) modifications globally across the entire game client.
 
Unlike world-specific [[Minecraft:Resource pack|resource packs]], global resources apply to the [[Minecraft:main menu]], [[Minecraft:Server|servers]], [[Minecraft:Realms]], and any single-player [[Minecraft:world]] the [[Minecraft:player]] joins.
 
== Functionality ==
The Global Resources menu can be accessed by navigating to '''Settings > Global Resources''' from the main menu. It is divided into three primary sections:
 
* '''Active:''' Displays the packs currently applied to the game client.
* '''My Packs:''' Displays all packs owned by the player, including those purchased from the Marketplace/Dressing Room and manually imported <code>[[Minecraft:.mcpack]]</code> files.
* '''Get More Packs:''' A direct link to the [[Minecraft:Marketplace]] to acquire new [[Minecraft:textures]] or packs.
 
<blockquote>To activate a pack in 'My Packs', click on the pack, then click 'Activate'.</blockquote>
 
=== Active Hierarchy ===
The order of packs in the "Active" list matters. Packs are loaded from the bottom up, meaning the pack at the top of the list has the highest priority and will overwrite any conflicting files or textures in the packs below it. The default ''Minecraft'' textures sit permanently at the very bottom of the stack.
 
== Types of Packs Supported ==
While primarily used for visual overhauls, Global Resources can handle a few different types of modifications:
{| class="wikitable"
! Pack Type
! Description
! Example
|-
|'''Texture Packs'''
|Changes the [[Minecraft:Block|blocks]], [[Minecraft:Item|items]], [[Minecraft:Mob|mobs]], and environmental textures.
|''PureBDcraft, Natural Texture Pack''
|-
|'''UI/HUD Packs'''
|Alters the main menu, [[Minecraft:Inventory|inventory screens]], and in-game [[Minecraft:heads-up display]].
|''[[Minecraft:Java Edition|Java]] UI profile mimics, Dark Mode UI''
|-
|'''Fonts & Languages'''
|Changes the in-game font style or adds custom [[Minecraft:language]] translations.
|''HD Font packs''
|}
<blockquote>⚠️ '''Note:''' Behavior Packs (which alter game logic, [[Minecraft:Entity|entities]], and commands via [[Minecraft:JSON]] components or scripting) cannot be applied globally. They must be applied directly to individual worlds or Realms to prevent cheating and data corruption.</blockquote>
 
== Multiplayer Behavior ==
When a player joins a [[Minecraft:multiplayer]] server, a Realm, or another player's local world, Global Resources behave according to the host's settings:
 
# '''Client-Side Visuals:''' The player's global resources will remain active, changing how blocks and items look on their screen, provided they do not conflict with the server's forced packs.
# '''Server-Forced Packs:''' If a server or host world has a required resource pack enabled, the server's pack takes priority. The client will download the server's pack, which will temporarily overwrite any conflicting textures in the player's Global Resources for the duration of that play session.
# '''Ray Tracing / PBR:''' For platforms that support it, [[Minecraft:Ray Tracing]] (PBR) capability must usually be activated via a compatible PBR resource pack loaded in Global Resources.
