About
A Better GUI 2 is a Minecraft resource pack that refreshes the game’s interfaces with more accurate, polished textures while retaining Minecraft’s familiar visual style. It also changes chest and shulker box textures, which require OptiFine to display correctly, and some textures work only when the game is set to English (US).
Written from CurseForge . How we write it
In-game changes
It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.16 to 1.19.
Changes 43 interface textures and the font.
Adds 6 interface textures and 1 language file. In OptiFine's formats: custom colors and 36 other files.
Textures are mostly 256 by 256 pixels.

Security
No harmful code found
It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.16 to 1.19.
We checked what is inside its files, without opening them in the game.
Why we show this: a resource pack cannot run programs, but its file can hide one. Our checks look for known signs of harm. They cannot prove that a file is harmless. In the grade: malware means no grade.
How we checked
- FilesWe download the files from Modrinth or CurseForge and look at what is inside them and what their code can do, without running them. Fixed rules tell what is harmful.2 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. None is for a recent Minecraft version, so the answer above is about all of them. Recent versions: those released in the last 2 years, plus 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, among the most played in modpacks. See each file in Releases
Privacy
Sends nothing
A resource pack has no code that can connect to the internet, so it cannot send anything about you.
AI
No sign that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its texts, files and images and found none.
Why we show this: some players and servers avoid projects made with AI. Not in the grade: using AI does not tell whether a project works well or is kept up to date.
How we checked
- Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when a substantial part of the code is AI output, when an asset is mainly AI output, or when the project or its page relies on generative AI.Not on Modrinth.
