About
DIT’s Better Skeletons is a resource pack that gives Minecraft skeletons an island-themed, older appearance, intended to add an eerie atmosphere to adventure, medieval, or horror-themed worlds. It retextures skeletons and includes examples featuring a Stray, glowing eyes, and skeleton heads displayed on walls or placed in the world; the Bog is excluded from the texture changes. OptiFine or Entity Texture Features is required to access the remaining custom skeleton textures.
Written from CurseForge . How we write it
In-game changes
Changes 5 mob and entity textures (Horse and Skeleton).
Adds 2 mob and entity textures. In OptiFine's formats: varied textures for 2 mobs and 39 glowing textures.
Textures are mostly 32 by 32 pixels, up to 64 by 64.

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.9 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
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.
