[[File:Texture pack example.png|thumb|300px|Default textures with a custom texture pack in the center. The texture pack being used is Jolicraft.]]
A '''texture pack''' is a type of [[Minecraft:DLC|downloadable content]] that can be bought from the [[Minecraft:Marketplace]] (or the platform's storefront {{in|LCE}}) which customizes the appearance of the game by replacing the default [[Minecraft:textures]] or other visual assets and sounds. They consist of [[Minecraft:resource packs]] which can be applied locally for the player only or for all players in a [[Minecraft:world]] or [[Minecraft:server]].


'''Texture packs''' were a way to change the in-game textures of [[Minecraft:block]]s, [[Minecraft:item]]s, [[Minecraft:mob]]s, and the GUI.
In addition to separately available texture packs, [[Minecraft:mash-up packs]] come bundled with texture packs as well. Texture packs are sometimes bundled with [[Minecraft:skin packs]].


In [[Minecraft:Java Edition 1.6.1]], texture packs were replaced with [[Minecraft:resource pack]]s, which provide more control over textures and other game features, such as music and text.
== Usage ==
Texture packs are [[Minecraft:resource packs]] that customize all [[Minecraft:textures]] up to a certain update, mostly from [[Minecraft:blocks]] and [[Minecraft:entities]] but sometimes also the UI. They can also customize other visuals such as [[Minecraft:graphics]] and [[Minecraft:animations]], and [[Minecraft:sound]] effects. [[Minecraft:Gameplay]] does not change with a texture pack enabled.


== Behavior ==
Once downloaded, texture packs can be enabled locally for the player only in the "[[Minecraft:Global Resources]]" settings tab, where it will be applied to every world or server the player joins with support for global resources.
[[File:Select Texture Pack.png|thumb|The texture pack selection screen.]]


Each custom texture pack is either a [[Minecraft:wp:Zip (file format)|ZIP archive]] with a case-insensitive <code>.zip</code> suffix or a directory.
They can also be applied to [[Minecraft:worlds]], [[Minecraft:Realms]], or [[Minecraft:servers]], where all joining players are prompted to download and activate the pack. There is a setting to make this obligatory and disable global resources.


Texture packs are placed in the {{file|directory|texturepacks|inline=1}} directory within {{file|directory|[[Minecraft:.minecraft]]|inline=1}}. They can be chosen from the [[Minecraft:options]], but only one pack can be selected at any given time.
[[Minecraft:Vibrant Visuals]] texture packs are variants that customize dynamic lighting configurations and PBR textures, which may not always customize the regular color textures.


By default, the game uses the texture pack called ''Default''. It has the description ''The default look of Minecraft'' and a default {{File|file|pack.png}}. It is always present and uses textures from the {{file|archive|[[Minecraft:client.jar]]|inline=1}}. If a custom texture pack does not have a certain texture, the texture from the default texture pack is used instead.
'''Sound effects packs''' (or '''audio packs''') are variants that mainly customize [[Minecraft:sounds]], and not visuals.{{upcoming|be 26.60}}


The ''Default'' pack has block and item textures 16×16 pixels in size. 32×32, 64×64, 128×128, 256×256, 512×512, and 1024×1024 textures were referred to as "HD". Textures of different resolutions can be mixed and matched within one texture pack.

{{File|file|pack.txt|inline=1}} is a UTF-8 text file with LF or CRLF line endings, which can have up to two lines used as the description of the pack on the texture pack list. The text can be formatted using [[Minecraft:formatting codes]]. Any extraneous lines are cut off. This file is required for a texture pack directory, but not a texture pack ZIP file, to be detected.

| {{tc|Partial|On some platforms}}
Texture packs can be converted to resource packs using the [[Minecraft:Texture Ender]] tool. Converting texture packs from before 1.5 is a two-step process, requiring them to be converted to the 1.5 format first by using Unstitcher.

# Download a texture pack. Most texture packs are in [[Wikipedia:ZIP (file format)|ZIP]] file format, but as long as it has the necessary files ({{code|pack.txt}}), ''[[Minecraft:Minecraft]]'' recognizes a directory as a texture pack. In-depth instructions on obtaining the files to make custom texture packs are located at [[Minecraft:Tutorial:Custom texture packs]]. However this is not necessary, as of snapshot [[Minecraft:12w23a]], for as long as {{code|pack.txt}} exists, it is recognized as a texture pack.

=== Installation tips ===
| October 29, 2014
* Texture packs may redesign only some textures. So if the main menu looks the same after a pack is selected, it doesn't mean the pack is not working.
| November 20, 2018
* Many texture packs may be installed and overlap each other. The texture pack list can be scrolled by dragging the scrollbars up or down.
| {{tc|Partial|On some platforms}}
* ''Minecraft'' may lock the currently used texture pack (for example, if the pack contains custom textures for user interface), so the file can't be overwritten. If the pack needs to be updated, it may be necessary to temporarily switch to the default pack and then overwrite the file.
|-
* To get an unzipped directory to show as a texture pack in ''Minecraft'', that directory needs a {{file|file|pack.txt|inline=1}} file in it. This, however, did not work prior to [[Minecraft:12w23a]].
|[[File:MC_Pattern_Thumbnail_0.jpg|150px]]
* Keep in mind that, if a texture pack is downloaded in ZIP form, it may contain another directory inside of it that has the texture pack's title, this is the actual texture pack. In this case, this directory must be copied to the {{file|directory|texturepacks|inline=1}} directory.
! [[Minecraft:Pattern Texture Pack]]  
* If an older version of ''Minecraft'' (1.2.5 for example) is being used and a texture pack for a newer version is installed, the texture pack still runs properly, and ignores the unused items or blocks.
|Decorate your world with this bright and colorful texture pack filled with beautiful patterns and knitted animals!
* If an older texture pack is used in a more recent version of ''Minecraft'', then the newer blocks and items show a "missing texture" because the texture pack isn't made for newer versions.
| August 31, 2017
* An editor is a great way to make a texture pack.
| March 25, 2015
Current versions of ''Minecraft'' support higher resolutions of texture packs. Traditionally, textures in-game work on a 16×16 block. Bigger texture packs can go all the way up to 512×512 (32×, 64×, 128×, 256×) but require better hardware to play smoothly.

== Trivia ==
=== ''New Nintendo 3DS Edition'' ===
* The selected texture pack is saved to the options.txt file in the .minecraft folder, so the "skin:" value can be manually changed to the name of the ZIP file. This can be useful if the texture pack crashes the main menu, making impossible to change the pack using the texture selection screen. Erasing the pack name will reset it to default.
{{HistoryTable

A scene in Minecraft with the Fantasy Texture Pack applied

A texture pack is a type of downloadable content that can be bought from the Minecraft:Marketplace (or the platform's storefront Template:In) which customizes the appearance of the game by replacing the default Minecraft:textures or other visual assets and sounds. They consist of Minecraft:resource packs which can be applied locally for the player only or for all players in a Minecraft:world or Minecraft:server.

In addition to separately available texture packs, Minecraft:mash-up packs come bundled with texture packs as well. Texture packs are sometimes bundled with Minecraft:skin packs.

Usage

Texture packs are Minecraft:resource packs that customize all Minecraft:textures up to a certain update, mostly from Minecraft:blocks and Minecraft:entities but sometimes also the UI. They can also customize other visuals such as Minecraft:graphics and Minecraft:animations, and Minecraft:sound effects. Minecraft:Gameplay does not change with a texture pack enabled.

Once downloaded, texture packs can be enabled locally for the player only in the "Minecraft:Global Resources" settings tab, where it will be applied to every world or server the player joins with support for global resources.

They can also be applied to Minecraft:worlds, Minecraft:Realms, or Minecraft:servers, where all joining players are prompted to download and activate the pack. There is a setting to make this obligatory and disable global resources.

Minecraft:Vibrant Visuals texture packs are variants that customize dynamic lighting configurations and PBR textures, which may not always customize the regular color textures.

Sound effects packs (or audio packs) are variants that mainly customize Minecraft:sounds, and not visuals.Template:Upcoming
