Vader's Alternative Programmer Blocks Pack - Programmer Art Add-On (1.8 - 1.12) Minecraft Texture Pack
About the pack!
This pack adds over 800 randomized textures across many of the blocks to the game! It works by using a resource pack feature that was implemented around Minecraft version 1.8 called 'variants'.

This project was originally started in 2015 to fill a void I found lacking in texture packs at that time period, and as a thank you for reaching 1,000 subscribers on YouTube.

Now, it's more of a passion project for a feature I'd like to see more use of by the Mojang Dev Team. Until that day and beyond, I hope to maintain this pack at my own pace and vision. So please be patient with any and all updates.

This pack is 100% Vanilla, it does not require Optifine to function, but will still work with it.

Help the pack in many different ways!
Contribute to the pack
Although I've added a lot to this pack already, I would like to make this pack even bigger than it is with your help. If you are good with textures and would like to add variations of other blocks into the game, submit them to me via PM and I'll see about adding it to the pack. Please make sure that any texture you send me fits with the default Minecraft textures, I would like to stick as close to that style as possible. You of course will be credited for your contributions. Thank you :)

Send in your suggestions
If you want to help the pack but are no good with making textures, no problem! If you have an idea of what you would like to see in the pack you can give a detailed suggestion and I may add it to the pack.

Contains the do's and don'ts on redistribution, re-uploading to other sites, and all that jazz.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions!
• Do you plan on making a 32x32 version of this pack in the future?
- I have already made a 32x32 version of this pack in the style of Faithful. You can download it here.

• Will you be adding alternative mob textures to the pack? Like rooster variants for chickens, or muddy pigs?
- I have no plans to add random mobs to this pack since its theme is all about blocks. Perhaps for a future project, but at this time I'd like to focus on my current packs.

• I made some textures and want to send them to you! How do I do that?
- You can start by downloading a zipping program like 7Zip, or Winrar. Once you have one of those installed, make a new zip file and put all the textures you want to send to me in it. Then upload it to a file hosting site such as Mediafire, or Dropbox. Once your upload is complete, copy your download files url and send it to me though a private message with some info on what you sent me. Please note that I do take a look at everyone's textures and do take them into consideration. Some may not be added, some might be added throughout later versions of the pack, and sometimes they may be removed from the pack.

• I really enjoy using this pack, what can I do to show my support?
-
I'm glad you like using my pack! There are a few things you could do to show your support such as;
~ Keeping up with the latest version of the pack weather it be downloading, commenting, or general feedback.
~ Submitting some of your own textures to the pack for them to be possibly included in future versions of the pack.
~ Commenting some suggestions on what you like, don't like, or would like to see in the pack.

Hey guys, I'm currently converting this to 1.13-1.14 pack, I might release it in next or two weeks,
I will just convert it to 1.13, not changing any textures.
Q: Will there be a 1.14 themed pack?

A: Of course! But it will take longer......
I hope you read this and I'll contact Vader for this.

if you use the hipixel converter, and then do a little renaming you can get 90% to work

Patience, young padawan. Vader will be finished in due time. (At least I sure hope so, all his packs are genius and marvels of the possibility of vanilla Minecraft.)
