Kal's Grimdark Heavy Armor [1.18+]

This is one of my favorite critiques! I totally get that we as a community use 16x to refer to default resolution, but Vanilla armor textures have a pixel density that is inconsistent with Vanilla blocks. What I mean by this is that in comparison to a standard block, the Vanilla armor textures appear lower resolution. This is problematic for me as a creator as it's incredibly limiting, but it also invalidates the entire concept of 16x/32x/etc. Pixels are not rendered consistently in Minecraft so it's really a poor way to label resolutions.

I label my pack as 16x because all of the item textures and block textures I create (including the armor item textures) are 16x. My armor model textures are double the resolution of MC vanilla armor because that results in a pixel density that is closer to what it should be (and when pixel densities cannot be matched, characters & armor should be the denser of the two).

In general, I view resource packs as not only a way to customize your experience as a player, but to enhance the game in a way that is consistent with your perspective. I believe Mojang created their armor at the incorrect resolution, so I 'fixed' it in my resource packs. If Planet MC had an option to set the resolution to 'mixed' I would, but I suspect it's more misleading to call this a 32x pack than a 16x pack, so I picked the better option.

One of my favorite textures I've ever created tbh. Thank you!

Thank you! I'll be releasing the "light" armor and "royal" armor variants soon as well. Of course, they are all available in the Battlepack, but you do have to rename things using an anvil.
