Similar graphics upgrades without texture changes have later been implemented as Minecraft:ray tracing and Minecraft:Vibrant Visuals under the modernized Minecraft:RenderDragon engine.
The pack was intended to add dynamic shadows, lighting that streams through fog, movement in leaves, grass and other foliage, new textures for blocks, items, mobs and villagers, directional lighting, edge highlighting, specular maps, additional 3D geometry, emissive maps, tone mapping, dynamic exposure, increased draw distance, parallax occlusion mapping, and other graphical improvements. It would have cost around US$10.00.<ref name="sdgp" />
