**Programmer Art Preserved is an add-on Resource Pack designed to patch & update the original Programmer Art Texture Pack to make it compatible with the newest versions of Minecraft.<\/p>\n
Unlike other similar resource packs, Programmer Art Preserved does not go for a Beta\/Alpha aesthetic, but rather preserves and continues Programmer Art where it left off around 1.12-1.13.<\/p>\n
So what does Programmer Art Preserved currently do exactly?**<\/p>\n
+ Fixes wrong textures loading due to name changes.<\/p>\n
+ Fixes things such as Villager, Zombie Villagers, and Horse Armor having broken textures due to new formating.<\/p>\n
+ Adds Missing Programmer Art Textures such as various Ores, Nylium, Boats, Signs, Wood Types, Bucket Types, Suspicious Gravel\/Sand, <\/p>\n
+ Updates the Copper Ore texture to use the original Stone texture and a earlier snapshot style of Copper Ore to better fit the classic look of Minecraft.<\/p>\n
+ Patches Programmer Art Villagers so they do not all have the unused Green Hood.
\n(The Green Hood has now been added to the Nitwit’s Clothes.)<\/p>\n
+ Brings back the original Panoramic Background, and Splashes.<\/p>\n
+ Color Matches various things such as Cod & Puffer Fish to match the original item textures.<\/p>\n
**
\nAnd some creative things such as:**<\/p>\n
+ Zombie Pigmen styled Zombified Piglins. (It even has the THX XAPHOBIA text hidden in the texture again!)<\/p>\n
+ A color transition from blue to purple for the REspawn Anchor cracks to better match Programmer Art’s Texture.<\/p>\n
+ Replaces the out of place looking Pitcher Pod with the Cyan Rose from Pocket Edition!
\n(Grows from a small block of Pocket Edition’s Grass. Starts as a Cyan Rose and eventually grows into a full Cyan Rose Bush.)<\/p>\n
+ Adds a unqiue texture for Petrified Oak Slabs. (Uses the original wood texture from Notch’s original test builds)<\/p>\n
+ Renames some blocks\/items such as the Cyan Rose Bush and Grimstone. (Grimstone actually did have a slightly different texture to Deeplslate originally.)<\/p>\n
+ and Recolors \/ changes the textures of several other new blocks and items to better fix Programmer Art’s style.<\/p>\n
**A full list of patch notes can be found in readme.txt**<\/p>\n
**[\u200bKnown issues]**<\/p>\n
The Panoramic Background is currently missing the blur effect due to 1.13 removing it. This can not currently be fixed with a simple resource pack as blurring the images in the texture would cause the blur effect to be very uneven.<\/p>\n
Vexes & Bats use the new texture in 1.19.3-1.21+ for now. Changing this texture would make the pack incompatible with older versions.<\/p>\n
The Title Logo is not the Programmer Art version in 1.20+ due to a reformating of the logo textures making a potential fix incompatible with older versions.<\/p>\n
**More updates are to come but I like to take some time to play with the new textures first to get a feel of how they could be made to fit with Programmer Art better. I hope you enjoy!**<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
