Usually, it is common to try to get the maximum out of Minecraft. However, the 8-bit Craft 2 Texture Pack is different, because it makes the textures more simple and not more realistic. You’ll probably have seen simple textures in other packs before, but in this case, the very low resolution is special. As the name suggests, all the blocks, objects, and creatures are at only 8 pixels. The differences compared to vanilla Minecraft are very clear because the resolution is halved. If you look very closely, you can only see similarities in the items. Whereas the blocks have been completely redesigned and are now much simpler and more colorful.

You might be wondering why you should play with the pack when the graphics are getting more pixelated. One advantage is that 8bit-Craft 2 gives you an FPS boost in Minecraft. This makes the entire game run smoother and there are significantly fewer lags. By the way, there are also alternatives, such as F8thful and Rodrigo’s Pack. One major difference is that these alternatives offer you much fewer features. While all three packs have simplistic blocks, the 8-bit Craft 2 texture pack has so much more features to offer.
We recommend to use optifine to fix errors and crashes. OptiFine boosting the FPS too!
