While Minecraft’s default textures are simple, Simplecraft takes it a step further and simplifies it to the extreme. Simplecraft softens up the visuals of Minecraft and can be a great choice for players who dislike overly vivid resource packs.

The grass and tallgrass textures have lots of character, with tallgrass being more blocky and having small treelike bushes that would not appear in vanilla. Exploring any cave will no longer be the same as the color options are significantly reduced while still maintaining perfect block clarity. This resource pack is perfect for players who want to heavily lean on a subtle color palette that’s easy on the eyes.

Realistic resource packs rarely look good, as Minecraft was not designed for realism. Patrix has broken this rule by incorporating a medieval element alongside the realism factor, resulting in a beautiful resource pack that pairs well with any shader.

Patrix adds new animations to some mobs. For example, creepers now walk ominously and are more intimidating than ever. This resource pack will not work properly unless Optifine is installed. The first image shows the resource pack when paired with a shader, as it is intended to be used alongside one. This resource pack is best used for gamers with beefier computers as it’s on the intensive side, especially if paired with a shader pack.

Resource Pack Link: Tooniverse & Add-Ons

In the theme of cartoonish resource packs, Tooniverse is among the most popular. Bright, cheery, and colorful, this resource pack completely changes the vibe of Minecraft and turns it into a cartoon universe. Tooniverse includes a few add-ons, one of which was used to turn the leaves blocky and is free to download.

The only free version of this resource pack is the 32x resolution one and lacks textures for most mobs. This can be circumvented by using another cartoony resource pack to replace the mobs, as the vanilla ones will stick out like a sore thumb.
