Ever notice how some of the items inventory icons aren’t centered? Well now you have. This pack fixes it, even if an item is an odd number of pixels, by translating the texture using the JSON file. This means even if you use a resource pack that slightly modifies the colors of an image, this pack should still center it. If you have a resource pack that greatly changes the original texture, it may become off center. Some items, like flowers, mushrooms, and sapling, are only centered horizontally so that they stay on the bottom edge. Additionally, this pack move the youngest 3 Amethyst Buds and the Nether Sprouts textures down to the bottom edge.<\/p>\n
If you have a resource pack that significantly alters a texture or use mods that add items, you can center things yourself. Copy the items .json file from the version .jar under assetsminecraftmodelsitem for most items or assetsminecraftmodelblock for items that use their blocks texture for the item texture (think trees or flowers) then copy the “display” item from any of the existing .json files in my resource pack. Shift the first two numbers of gui translation as the x and y as necessary (decimals are allowed) and change the values of the ground translation to roughly the x translation divided by two and the y translation multiplied by 2. Keep the scale as 0.5 for all 3 values.<\/p>\n
