Wild vanilla is a Minecraft resource pack that attempts to update most plants,
\nflowers and a few other natural elements visually.<\/p>\n
It does this in a way that updates them to more modern looking designs that make landscapes
\nand gardens feel more alive, while sticking to Minecraft Vanilla’s visual style and adhering closely
\nto the plants’ real-life counterparts.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I’ve been making steady progress on the pack, and I currently intend to update the following:<\/p>\n
– Grass and ferns, normal and tall.
\n– All standard flowers in the game, including 2 block tall ones.
\n– Dripstones, roots
\n– All Saplings
\n– All Mushrooms and Fungi
\n– Other foliage from older versions like Sugarcane and Vines<\/p>\n
There’s a few principles I’m using in updating these models:<\/p>\n
– Pixel accuracy.
\nI was kinda shocked to find out that all plants that use the standard cross shape in game are not
\npixel accurate and stretched. I intend to fix that, and have all plants be as pixel accurate as I can,
\nlike most of the newly added things are nowadays<\/p>\n
– Overlap and Wild growth.*
\nMost of my models exceed the size of the block they’re planted on. This is to add to the feeling of
\nthe plants growing wild, and adds a lot of visual eyecandy to the world. I also extend them downwards
\ninto the block, adding roots that can be visible if the plant is randomly placed over an edge.
\nIn vanilla this creates an ugly and unnatural seam between plant and air, especially prevalent in grass.<\/p>\n
– Life-accurate.
\nI strive for my models to look as accurate as I can without to their real life counterparts without breaking
\nthe vanilla look. This creates more variety and makes the plants more recognizable. Building a garden
\nin Minecraft has never been as interesting.<\/p>\n
All models are made using Blockbench.
