Well I certainly did so I decided to completely overhall their designs!<\/p>\n<p>![Boss bars](https:\/\/i.postimg.cc\/zGhhk5CL\/Boss-Bars.png)<\/p>\n<p>These make use of language fonts and custom core shaders to achieve larger and much more intricate sprites. And while I had to sacrifice some readability in order to fit in some of those details I&#8217;ve done my best to keep things somewhat readable by adding a transparent layer on the Ender Dragon eye that lets the bar come through for example!<\/p>\n<p>**_The pack is currently available from versions 1.21.11 to 1.20.2. However due to shader limitations, versions 1.20.5\/1.20.6 as well as anything past 1.20.2 will not work._**<\/p>\n<p>### The contents of this mini pack are from a\u00a0greater project I&#8217;m working on called Rappenem&#8217;s Reforge which aims to resprite the whole game in this style.
