Wear & Tear

# Wear & Tear

Your tools and armour now look the way they feel. As durability drops, items scuff, crack, chip and finally fall apart, so you can tell at a glance when something is about to break.

## Wear stages
| Durability used | Look |
|—|—|
| 35% | Scuffed and slightly stained |
| 60% | Cracked and discoloured, with chipped edges |
| 85% | Nearly broken, with heavy cracks and small holes |

Copper doesn’t just crack, it turns green with verdigris.

## What’s covered
– **Tools and weapons:** swords, pickaxes, axes, shovels, hoes and spears in wood, stone, iron, gold, copper, diamond and netherite
– **Armour:** chainmail, iron, gold, copper, diamond, netherite, leather and the turtle helmet, on the inventory icon and on your character
– **Other gear:** bow, crossbow, fishing rod, brush, trident icon, mace, shears, flint and steel, carrot on a stick, warped fungus on a stick
– **Elytra:** the icon and the worn wings

## Requirements
This pack uses Custom Item Textures, so you need one of these:
– **OptiFine** (turn on Video Settings > Quality > Custom Items)
– **A Fabric CIT mod** such as CIT Resewn

On 1.21.4 and newer, tools, mace, shears, flint and steel, carrot on a stick and warped fungus on a stick also wear with no mod at all. Armour, bows, crossbows, elytra and the other multi-texture items still need OptiFine or a CIT mod.

## Versions
Supports Java Edition 1.15 to 26.1. Copper gear only exists in 1.21.9+ and spears in 1.21.11+, so on older versions those textures simply go unused.

## Not included
Shield and the held trident (the game draws these itself), wolf armour (the game already cracks it), and horse and nautilus armour (they have no durability).

## Installing
1. Download the zip and put it in your `resourcepacks` folder, or add it through Options > Resource Packs.
2. Enable it.
3. Make sure OptiFine’s Custom Items setting is on, or that your CIT mod is installed.

## Notes
Bug reports are welcome. Please include your Minecraft version and whether you use OptiFine or a CIT mod.
