    I've tidied up the Google Docs pages for all my projects a bit, so they should be a little easier to view on both desktop and mobile now. More new Minecraft resource pack updates coming soon!

    What happened to the spoiler block function? I've noticed that it just breaks randomly on save sometimes or can't handle basic inputs like centering highlighted text? It's real odd.

    From now on I'm just going to get rid of them when I update my project pages. They used to help keep my descriptions cleaner and more organized, but now I get anxious in anticipation when hitting the save button thinking, 'What will I have to fix this time...".

    Here's all the stack-size dependent items that will be included in my stand-alone port pack from the 'Barely Default' resource pack by MushirMickeyJoe, which will be available in just a few days.

    I'm changing the format of my changelogs to make them easier to read and update for future project versions. Old vs New.

    In a effort to further open source my projects and allow people to do more things using my stuff, I've updated the license that gets slapped on my projects.

    I've swapped over from CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 to GPL-3.0. I've realized that while the former is considered open source, the latter allows my projects to be more helpful to other people with less downsides.

    My goal is to freely create cool projects that I want to do, while slowly creating an open source library of assets I hope will be useful to someone at some point.

    Some project files and pages have not been updated with the new license information yet, in case you find yourself here, you can ignore the old info. Those pages will be updated the next time I release an update for them.

    Below is a simplified summery of the license I am using for my projects.

    Sup all. I'm makin’ resource packs again, once again starting with updating my old packs, but with some new stuff will be released in between.


    Going forward, I have decided I'm going to be a bit more silent with any sort of progress or preview related stuff related to work in progress projects. Not deadpan, only a bit. From now on I'm just sorta going to drop some things here and there instead of just talking about the things then disappearing for weeks at a time.


    I've realized everyone has the right to an opinion, and I believe all criticism is good, the positives & the negatives. However, sometimes when showing off something you’ve maybe spent hours on just to get working in an early state. It’s simply not as impressive when viewed through the lens of a stranger who’s had little to no prior context as to what they are looking at. I dunno if this is a feeling that happens to anyone else, but It’s sometimes a bit discouraging when you throw something like that out there as a neat little thing then you get crickets back. Or people say something looks off when it didn’t originally look off to you, but oh wait, it kind of does now that you mention it. Wait, does it? It does! No wait… No it doesn't… Maybe..? Dr. Who knows anymore, space babies..? Sure... Why..? My arms are too long... Oh look, ‘Plot Armor Ending S26’.


    Terrible, I know, but I hope I could somewhat convey the feeling of the silly picture I just word vomited. Anyway, this is just the way I feel will be best for me to continue creating things I think are cool or interesting. Stay tuned for some new stuff and updates.


    Thanks for reading,

    Sadly when it comes to player skins, they have always had a poor viewer response experience even before Planet Minecraft was around.
    ScotsMiser2024-07-12 03:09:06
    Yes, a resounding silence (or a 'meh' ) when one has put effort into something can be quite disheartening…

    On the other hand, few skins or mob skins seem to get any comments at all (texture and data packs; at least the first few pages of best of 2024 seem to fair considerably better)

    New collab video out and about with MushirMickeyJoe over on his YouTube channel where we check out each others resource packs & 2 of my unreleased Minecraft maps. Feel free to stop by and say a few words if you've got the time.

    I'm going through old messages and comments and noticed multiple people asking for permission to use my textures in their own resource packs. So I've gone ahead and updated my 'Legal Stuffs' sections both on PMC and CurseForge to the following.

    You may freely use any file in this project for your own projects & purposes without asking me. All I ask is that you give credit with a link to this projects page.


    Please do not reupload this project elsewhere without your own changes and project name.



    I've also gone ahead and made some small fixes to each projects thread to clean it up slightly and made the following project name changes since the old names and descriptions no longer matched what they represented.

    Vader's Alternative Block Pack - Is now - Vader's Alternative Programmer Blocks Pack (Classic)
    Vader's Stacked Items Pack -
    Is now - Vader's Stacked Programmer Items Pack
    Dirty Bricks Resource Pack -
    Is now - Vader's Dirty Programmer Bricks Pack
    Plain Wood Doors Resource Pack -
    Is now - Vader's Plain Wood Programmer Doors Pack
    Faithful Dirty Bricks Pack -
    Is now - Vader's Faithful Dirty Bricks Pack

    Thumbnails still need to be updated to match the new name changes, however I won't be doing so until development is started for the matching project. I've also added some information to the top of each project's page to help keep track of planned updates and releases.

    There's still a ton of work to be done and things to fix, but it's a start for now. More information will be posted when applicable.

    Hi there, boy it's been quite some time since I've last logged on here. So much has happened to me since I last did any kind of update post so I'll try to keep this brief. All of my projects have fallen into chaos and disarray, many of them are 6-7 Minecraft versions behind on anything remotely playable (the last of which working for 1.13 & 1.14) this is my own fault. I over promised updates and burned myself out to the point of needing to take a good long break from the internet as a whole.

    This in turn has made me incredibly rusty with everything to do with Minecraft and my projects. Even though I took such a long hiatus, I never stopped thinking about Minecraft or the projects I've created. I simply no longer knew where to even begin or how to proceed until the moment of me posting this update. For months, I have wanted to say something but simply didn't know how to form the words I wanted to say. So I'm starting small with a post on Planet Minecraft.

    Why here and now? I can't really explain properly, I've just had an itch that never went away and it stems from feeling like I've abandoned this place and its community. Minecraft and this website means a lot to me as it has helped me get through the toughest and darkest times of my life. I anxiously write these words down with a newfound drive to continue what I had started years ago. However, this time around I will be taking things at a much slower pace until I get back in the groove of things.

    I'm of course referring to updating all of my Programmer Art resource pack add-ons. However, this may sadden many of you. I will be starting the updating process by first working all the way back to Minecraft 1.8.9, the earliest possible version my Random block pack works with.

    I will be starting the updates in the coming weeks to follow, starting with my Dirty Bricks Resource pack for Minecraft 1.8.9-1.19, then I will move to the next pack I feel like working on next. I expect the whole process to take a long time before I get to any kind of new project going as I am going to update everything from version compatibility to every thread and download link.

    Please do not ask me when something will be updated to "X" version of Minecraft. In time I plan to get around to it all so I can move forward with future projects, what I am planning on doing is already a huge undertaking for me and I am doing it simply out of passion for my favorite game. I will soon be posting more regular updates on my progress but I'm still working some thing out first.

    If you're interested to learn more about what really happened to me since my last update, I recently updated my about me section over on my Patreon page. There I wrote out my story to the best of my recollection on everything I felt necessary related to me and how I've been dealing with my medical condition as of late. Just a fair warning, it is a very big wall of text, I don't expect most people who stumble upon it to actually read the whole thing. I simply needed to have a place where I could explain things as most of what I've been through doesn't even feel real to me at times.

    This was meant to be short and simple, however I been holding this back for so long the words wouldn't stop flooding from my mind to my hands. Anyways, thanks for reading up to this point. I'll be updating things as I see fit in due time. Until then, have a good day and or night.

    Hey there, it's been a while hasn't it. With the release of Minecraft 1.13, I know many of you who have been patiently waiting for me to update everything. I've been steadily making progress and have just finished 1.13 updates for the following resource packs.

    Dirty Bricks For MC 1.13


    Faithful Dirty Bricks for MC 1.13


    Plain Wood Doors for MC 1.13

    As for my other packs, work on Vader's Alternative Block Pack has begun(I'm redoing just about everything so it will take some time), and Vader's Stacked Items Pack will start being updated after Optifine 1.13 is fully released.

    Thank you all for being so patient and your continued support, I will be posting here a little more frequently as I update my packs.

    If you haven't noticed already, I've been a bit silent on the progress of my projects as of late. I haven't abandoned work on anything, I'm just currently unable to continue working at this time. This is because the computer I have been using for all my projects has failed and is no longer useable. I have been working on finding a refurbished computer to build upon, but so far my success has been minimal. The computer I was sent had some problems making it inoperable out of the box. I've since sent it back and I'm looking into other options. Once I get things sorted out, I will continue to work on my projects.

    A few Announcements


    Working on a new resource pack!
    Hey there everyone, it's time to give a sneak peek at the newest resource pack I'm working on, Vader's Stacked Faithful Pack. The image you see above is the direct Faithful version of my stacked items pack. Currently there are a little over 100 textures semi-complete, what you see here is only 60 of them across 30 items.

    I just launched my Patreon campaign!
    To celebrate the launch of my campaign, I've released a free beta version of the pack which includes all of the textures you see in the picture. If you're interested, you can find a download to the pack in the posts section of my Patreon page. More info on when the pack will be done to come soon.

    Hey there everyone, there won't be any pack updates this month because I am currently in the hospital. I just got a kidney transplant yesterday afternoon so I'm going to spend a lot of time recovering. For more information check out my Reddit story I wrote before my surgery.
    MY2003782017-04-07 18:51:17
    sorry to hear that, hope ur well soon...
    SuperLuigi772017-04-07 12:58:41
    Wow. Glad that you are all right, I will also be praying for your easy recovery for you to.
    Beverly2017-04-07 11:20:04
    Oh my, I hope you're alright! I'll be praying for a speedy and easy recovery for you. :)
    I'm supposed to have a heart transplant in late summer also.

    A new Stacked Items Pack update is coming out within the next few days. The update will give textures to just about all food items +more! Here's a quick look at some food stuffs.

    Now that PMC has wall feeds, I can show previews of my current and upcoming packs. For my first preview, here's a look at "Vader's Stacked Items Pack". This is a pack I've been working on it for the past month or so and it's close to being complete. The pack takes advantage of Optifine features to give stacks of items a different texture based on the stack size. Expect it to be released sometime soon!
    Vaderman242017-03-14 20:13:27
    The resource pack requires Optifine in order to function, so make sure you have that installed and selected along with the pack.
    resourcepack_tester2017-03-14 13:55:02
    why doesen't it work? i tryed!
    Vaderman242017-02-20 22:08:28
    Something like that will be in the works for the future.
    smallsandman2017-02-20 14:52:23
    yes it will
    Javijj172017-02-19 12:13:53
    If you are starting to use Optifine for the texture packs, will you make a random mobs texture pack?
    Vaderman242017-02-19 01:26:17
    Yup, as I stated above, the pack takes advantage of Optifine features to make it possible.
    Javijj172017-02-18 16:46:01
    Will this need Optifine to work?
