It also has customized animations for blocks like lanterns, and glowstone and also offers 3D layouts for structures like doors, enchanting tables, and more. This pack requires Optifine with additional recommendations such as complementary shaders.
3) oCd Texture Pack
Developed by FVDisco, the maker of the Temple of Notch, this texture pack uplifts the color scheme within the game to make it visually appealing. This performance-friendly texture pack can work smoothly even at 16x16 block resolution.
It does this by giving a bordered layout to the blocks, making them feel more attractive. At the same time, it reduces the noise-related details in the textures to make it look more subtle. This texture pack requires Optifine.
4) Faithful
Perhaps one of the simplest texture packs you can find, this is for users who want a slight upscale and do not want to change the vanilla look of Minecraft. It comes in resolutions between 1x1 and 512x512.
