A simple mod that allows the Minecraft icon to be changed via resource packs<\/p>\n
*For modpack makers*: you may use this mod in your modpack with or without credit<\/p>\n

Download a resource pack that provides icons, and enable it. Once the resources finish reloading, you should see that the icon in the dock\/taskbar has changed.<\/p>\n
This mod comes with a default resource pack called Alternate Icons. It’s disabled by default, but you can enable it in the resource pack screen.<\/p>\n
