This resource pack is designed to give command blocks a more modern (?) feel whilst keeping the style of the old 1.8 command block. This pack also resolves an issue with the vanilla textures where the shapes in the center would not be centered:<\/p>\n

![All 4 textures of each of the 3 command block variants](https:\/\/cdn.modrinth.com\/data\/cached_images\/9328dc6bb654b1d23d27f11b0cdcf6f3a574ec49.png)<\/p>\n

Also, MC version 1.21.5 introduced 2 new technical blocks – the test block and the test instance block. I have made sure to re-texture those as well (the barrier and structure void are re-textured too).<\/p>\n
