    About

    Bray's Better Bow & Arrows refreshes bows and crossbows with custom textures and models, including 3D projectiles shown as they are loaded and fired. It updates arrow and spectral-arrow sprites, adds new tipped-arrow and rocket sprites, and provides custom crossbow sprites when Multishot is loaded. With Real Arrow Tip installed, spectral and tipped projectiles can be distinguished while firing, and the pack offers distinct left- and right-handed models to keep the arrow close to the player's body. Respackopts lets players switch between the pack's custom textures and vanilla textures for bows and arrows.

    Written from Modrinth . How we write it

    In-game changes

    Changes 118 models, 6 core shader files and 103 other files.

    Adds 54 item textures, 1 mob and entity texture, 30 other files, 32 models and 1 language file. Also has files for 1 other mod: Real arrow tip.

    Textures are mostly 16 by 16 pixels, up to 32 by 32. 2 block and item textures are animated.

    Security

    No harmful code found

    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 · Both latest files checked, last on 19 Oct 2026
    • 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.
      3 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. The answer above is about the 2 for recent versions. 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
    • Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth, where the author declares that the project reads or edits things on your system outside the game. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when this applies.

    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.
