Programmer Art Preserved

**Programmer Art Preserved is an add-on Resource Pack designed to patch & update the original Programmer Art Texture Pack to make it compatible with the newest versions of Minecraft.

Unlike other similar resource packs, Programmer Art Preserved does not go for a Beta/Alpha aesthetic, but rather preserves and continues Programmer Art where it left off around 1.12-1.13.

So what does Programmer Art Preserved currently do exactly?**

• Fixes wrong textures loading due to name changes.

• Fixes things such as Villager, Zombie Villagers, and Horse Armor having broken textures due to new formating.

• Adds Missing Programmer Art Textures such as various Ores, Nylium, Boats, Signs, Wood Types, Bucket Types, Suspicious Gravel/Sand,

• Updates the Copper Ore texture to use the original Stone texture and a earlier snapshot style of Copper Ore to better fit the classic look of Minecraft.

• Patches Programmer Art Villagers so they do not all have the unused Green Hood.

(The Green Hood has now been added to the Nitwit’s Clothes.)

• Brings back the original Panoramic Background, and Splashes.

• Color Matches various things such as Cod & Puffer Fish to match the original item textures.

**
And some creative things such as:**

• Zombie Pigmen styled Zombified Piglins. (It even has the THX XAPHOBIA text hidden in the texture again!)

• A color transition from blue to purple for the REspawn Anchor cracks to better match Programmer Art’s Texture.

• Replaces the out of place looking Pitcher Pod with the Cyan Rose from Pocket Edition!

(Grows from a small block of Pocket Edition’s Grass. Starts as a Cyan Rose and eventually grows into a full Cyan Rose Bush.)

• Adds a unqiue texture for Petrified Oak Slabs. (Uses the original wood texture from Notch’s original test builds)

• Renames some blocks/items such as the Cyan Rose Bush and Grimstone. (Grimstone actually did have a slightly different texture to Deeplslate originally.)

• and Recolors / changes the textures of several other new blocks and items to better fix Programmer Art’s style.

A full list of patch notes can be found in readme.txt

[​Known issues]

The Panoramic Background is currently missing the blur effect due to 1.13 removing it. This can not currently be fixed with a simple resource pack as blurring the images in the texture would cause the blur effect to be very uneven.

Vexes & Bats use the new texture in 1.19.3-1.21+ for now. Changing this texture would make the pack incompatible with older versions.

The Title Logo is not the Programmer Art version in 1.20+ due to a reformating of the logo textures making a potential fix incompatible with older versions.

More updates are to come but I like to take some time to play with the new textures first to get a feel of how they could be made to fit with Programmer Art better. I hope you enjoy!
