![Halcyon [16x] — Programmer Remastered (1.20) Minecraft Texture Pack](https://i.imgur.com/2uhJrMP.png)
What it is:
Programmer Art has largely been left to gather dust following the 1.14 Texture Update — Mojang only updates its compatibility with newer versions of the game and nothing more. As a result there remains prominent issues and disparity between blocks and items, both old and new -- like Netherrack & Nylium for example -- when one uses the built-in Programmer Art resource pack.
Halcyon [16x] is a vanilla-styled resource pack meant to act as a compromise between both Modern Art (or Jappa Art) and Programmer Art. It aims to offer a classic and nostalgic experience for those who've stuck with the game since it first released over a decade prior, while introducing objectively much-needed changes for many blocks and items -- like the new color tones and palettes in use -- for newer users to enjoy, and tries to remain faithful to the core identity of what made Minecraft special.
Many issues are addressed and more, and all provided to you courtesy of a year and many months of hard work and dedication by yours truly.
What it isn't:
While many resource packs rely upon built-in assets and textures in order to function, Halcyon [16x] is divorced from standard Programmer Art, meaning it can be and should be used without ever having to toggle Programmer Art on, alongside your choice of supplementary packs for things like weapons, armor, HUD, etc. This is meant to be a replacement for built-in Programmer Art, but naturally the translation of older textures is not 100% accurate, so expect some slight differences to a number of items and blocks.
Any minor deviation or incorrect pixel I had to make was done as a consequence of the new palette, or for clarity's sake. Almost all textures have been addressed save for a remaining handful that I may or may not eventually get to, including mobs.

6/09/23 — 1.20 Update & OptiFine Changes : by Jesha 06/09/2023 8:10:16 pmJun 9th, 2023
Happy Summer, friends! It's been a hot minute (no pun intended,) but we've finally arrived to 1.20 with Halcyon [16x].
This update addresses few changes, such as the new textures for cherry wood themed items and blocks, as well as a few GUI improvements and touch-ups sprinkled here or there. Let's get underway, we're gonna need to bust out the Cheerwine for this one!
What's New?
Items
+Added textures for
Cherry Boat (Normal & Chest) - updated for parity with other boat textures
Blocks
+Added textures for
Cherry Log Top (Normal & Stripped) - updated for parity with other log textures
Cherry Planks
Cherry Door - added properly mirrored faces
Cherry Trapdoor - added properly textured sides
Cherry Boat (Entity) - updated for parity with other boat textures
Cherry Sign (Entity) - updated for parity with other boat textures
Misc
+Updated pack format to 15 (1.20)
+Added textures for
Minecraft Logo (Normal & Easter Egg)
Realms Logo
Realms GUI - updated for parity with other GUI textures
Now onto some other news:
Going forward I will no longer update the OptiFine CTM component of this texture pack, and will later deprecate it in a future update. Simply put, I don't use OptiFine anymore, plus I find I enjoy resource pack making without the reliance of third-party mods as there is so much that can be done with vanilla nowadays, unlike before when OptiFine was a necessity. For now, CTM remains in the 1.20 version of Halcyon [16x], but expect no further updates or patches.
And that's all I've got for now. As always I hope you enjoy this update to Halcyon [16x]! Please be sure to comment any thoughts or concerns you have, including any bugs you may encounter -- I greatly appreciate feedback.
Remember to stay safe, and have a good one!

P.S. If it matters that much to you I can only recommend other projects on PMC or Modrinth that are probably doing the same thing I've done with Halcyon [16x], or done better. I won't take offense I assure you if you decide to use another texture pack over mine in the meantime, you have that choice.
