WHAT IS JAPPA DOING TO MY MINECRAFT?

Changing the textures! Except for a few, like the Creeper.

Across all versions? YEP, both on Java and Bedrock. You cannot escape my sweet, sweet textures.
When? Soon! In the Beta Resource Pack, where all my beloved pixels live.

The Texture Update is an update released as part of Minecraft:Java Edition 1.14,<ref>Template:Snap</ref> Minecraft:Bedrock Edition 1.10.0,<ref>Template:Citation -@Mattgartzke, January 30, 2019</ref> and Minecraft:PlayStation 4 Edition 1.90 (as well as minor revisions in subsequent updates for textures that were left behind). The update changes almost every texture in the game,<ref>Template:Mcnet</ref> except for a few iconic textures such as the Minecraft:creeper. The textures were developed primarily by Minecraft:JAPPA (Jasper Boerstra). The original textures (with the exception of Minecraft:leather horse armor) are available as a resource pack/texture pack, which is in the game by default Template:In, and has a separate download Template:In (named "Programmer Art" Template:In, and "Minecraft Classic Texture Pack" Template:In).<ref>Template:Snap</ref><ref>Minecraft Classic Texture Pack</ref>

Miscellaneous

  • Although Minecraft:chests, Minecraft:trapped chests and Christmas chests had their png files changed (file sizes too), they still use their old textures/pixels rather than updated ones.
  • The offline default player Minecraft:skins, "Steve" and "Alex", had not been updated originally, creating a mismatch between the "Steve" texture and the Minecraft:zombie texture, which are supposed to be related.
    • This is no longer the case as of Minecraft:Java Edition 1.19.3, which introduced the updated "Steve" and "Alex" skin texture as well as seven more default skins.
  • The bottom texture of the Minecraft:enchanting table is now visually similar to Minecraft:obsidian (albeit the file size being different).
    • Enchanting tables used to have borders on all sides (to differentiate from obsidian) before it was changed in this texture update.
  • Minecraft:Sugar cane did not have its block texture changed, however, as of 1.17, the item texture itself was changed to be more accurate to the block's default tinted color.

History

Trivia

  • While the Creeper texture was not changed, its file size was.
  • Despite being visually identical before the update, the leather tunic overlay lost its transparent textures, where it once had an unused texture.
  • Minecraft:Grass Blocks still use their old top texture rather than an updated one that has appeared in Texture Update Betapacks V1 & V2.
  • On April 1, 2018, the Texture Update was "released" on Template:El as an April Fools' joke. DOS-styled 8-bit default version of textures, with heavy reductions in detail, were released for Java Edition, available in versions of 1.12.x and 1.13 snapshots from Minecraft:17w43a to Minecraft:18w11a, with the thread claiming that all editions of Minecraft would eventually get the textures.<ref>Template:Mcnet</ref>
    • The textures were reverted to the way they were before on April 2, 2018.<ref>Template:Tweet</ref> These textures cannot be re-activated by setting the device's date to April 1, 2018 as it is a server-side update.
    • These textures only replaced the default textures, so using a Resource Pack would hide the textures the resource pack would change.
  • The Texture Update Beta Pack gallery on the Minecraft:Minecraft Marketplace in Bedrock Edition uses screenshots from Java Edition.
  • In a now deleted Tweet, Minecraft:JAPPA announced on November 10, 2017 that the new textures would be available on "all versions" of Minecraft. However, the update was only released on editions that were supported at the time of release, specifically Minecraft:Java Edition, Minecraft:Bedrock Edition, and Minecraft:PlayStation 4 Edition.<ref name=quote>Template:Citation@JasperBoerstra, November 10, 2017</ref>
  • The "polished cobblestone" on the piston prior to the texture update used to match the furnace top texture. After the texture update, they no longer share the same design.
  • On Minecraft:PlayStation 4 Edition, the Minecraft:Block of Emerald texture was updated along with the other textures, but it did not receive the changes to it from 19w08a/beta 1.11.0.5.
