About
Classic Vanilla + is a curated resource pack that builds on Minecraft’s Programmer Art style, bringing newer textures closer to that look while preserving the game’s usual feel and difficulty. It refreshes a broad range of blocks, items, mobs, and models, including glass, signs, boats, horse armor, the Crafter, Trial Spawner and Vault, and newer wood types such as cherry and pale oak. Other adjustments restore older visual conventions, with examples such as 1.13-style buckets, potions, planks, ingots, and boat textures, alongside an old-style enchantment glint and pre-1.20 Minecraft logo. Small visual and interface touches include leaf decay across tree types, scaffolding edges, distinct explorer maps and ominous bottles, and an invisible item-frame texture. Some optional visual features add connected glass and bookshelves, colored axolotl buckets, and a crowned Technoblade pig when a pig is renamed; these features require OptiFine or compatible Fabric alternatives, and the pig effect also depends on random entity textures. The pack is intended to be used alongside Minecraft’s built-in Programmer Art pack, and its Christmas chest textures require the Better Christmas Chests mod.

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
- 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.6 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. The answer above is about the 3 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
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 so far that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its description, files and images and found none.
We have not read its changelogs 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.
