About
Better PvP is a resource pack that reshapes Minecraft’s visuals for PvP, with smaller sword textures, improved-looking axes, bow shot indicators, a smaller crosshair, and armor that glows when using ink sacs. It also adjusts block textures for bed wars and reduces the pumpkin, spyglass, and freezing overlays. Beyond combat visuals, the pack adds practical interface and gameplay cues, including a numbered hotbar, hunger preview, ping color indicator, compass lodestone display, visible tripwires, and redstone power levels. Other visual changes include unique spawn eggs, visual sapling growth and cauldron stages, an alternate enchantment glint, unobtrusive snow and rain, and a 3D sun and moon. It also includes a brewing guide, animated campfire items, clean redstone dust, and an improved GUI with miscellaneous block texture updates.

Security
Not checked yet
Its author does not let other sites download its files from CurseForge, so we cannot check them.
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.5 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. The answer above is about the one for a recent version. Recent versions: those released in the last 2 years, plus 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, among the most played in modpacks. 1 of them is not checked yet. 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
The author says no AI was used
We looked for AI tools in its texts and found none.
We have not read its files and images yet.
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.
- Description and changelogsThe description, project page and newest changelogs: sentences saying an AI tool was used, and text pasted from an AI chat.The author writes: “No AI was used in the making of this Texture Pack”0 of 32 changelogs read
