Harnesses Aren’t Ghastly

Happy Ghast harnesses have been fully re-modeled & re-textured — they’re much more detailed and much less _ghastly_ now!

Design Info

• The harness/saddle has been redesigned with a larger focus on practicality. This includes details such as…
• Straps & buckles to keep the harness in place,
• Built-in ladders for easier mounting & dismounting,
• A proper place for the jockey/rider(s) to sit,
• And more!

• Inspiration for the design was also taken from aviator hats. They already have the goggles — they may as well complete the look.

• Aside from the updated design, the model itself is more intricate, having proper 3D depth instead of only using flat textures. With the ghast being as large as a 4 block cube, the completely flat harness used in vanilla looks really out of place to me. At that scale, surely there should be some depth, right? Even carpets aren’t _that_ flat!

• No z-fighting or any weird clipping.

• All 16 color variants are included.

• The inventory icons have been updated to match the new harness design.

• It’s not just the harnesses themselves that have been reworked! The ropes which appear on a Happy Ghast while it’s carrying a boat or a large creature have also been retextured. Their new design is primarily based on the netting of vintage hot air balloons.

NOTE: As of 1.21.7, most of the ropes’ texture cannot be seen during normal gameplay since it will always covered by a harness.

_Ghasts appearing to shrink slightly when a harness is equipped is fully vanilla behavior. This is not caused by nor affected by this resource pack._
