What is it?
Programmer Art+ is a texture pack that aims to bridge the gap between Programmer Art and the newer textures added into Minecraft.

Are you a nostalgic fan of Minecraft since the early days, and disliked the 'smoother', newer textures added into Minecraft in the 1.14 Texture Update? Perhaps you want to check out what that weird native 'Programmer Art' resource pack was about? Maybe you just like the best of both worlds? An issue you're sure to have run into is with all blocks and items added after the Texture Update; they don't match! Suddenly, Nylium clashes with Netherrack, Soul Soil and Soul Sand look nothing alike, and all the new blocks added in 1.17 and above just don't fit right!

Worry no more! Programmer Art+ helps bridge the gap by making blocks look more like their classic counterparts

What has been changed?
Made blocks that 're-use' textures 're-use' the old textures, such as:
Nylium's netherrack texture
Respawn Anchor's obsidian texture
Deepslate Ores
Warped and Crimson Planks
Mangrove Planks and Logs
Cherry Planks and Logs
Honey Bottle's glass bottle texture
Buckets of fish, axolotls, powder snow and tadpole's bucket textures
Warped and Crimson signs
Nether Gold Ore now looks like a blend of the ore and the old netherrack texture
Warped Fungus on a stick now uses the old fishing rod texture


Overhauled the look of some new blocks, such as:
Copper Ore now looks like the 'classic' ores.
Soul Soil now looks more like a Soul Sand dirt equivalent than a weird wavy pattern
Mud now uses a recolour of Soul Soil's texture
Packed Mud now looks more like cobblestone
Mud Bricks now look more like Nether Bricks
Calcite, Tuff and Smooth Basalt now look closer to Programmer Art
Deepslate and it's variants have received a completely new texture in the Programmer Art style
Quartz Bricks now look more like Stone Bricks
Respawn Anchors now have a slightly updated glowstone texture


Changed the look of some new items, such as:
Netherite and Copper Ingots now look closer to Gold and Iron Ingots
Leather Horse Armour now looks like the other horse armours
Netherite Tools/Weapons now look closer to standard tools and weapons
Raw Ores now look closer to the Programmer Art style
Iron Nuggets now look more like Gold Nuggets
Glow Ink Sacs now look similar to regular Ink Sacs


Re-added some old textures and sounds, such as:
Poppies now look like Roses, and use their name.
Lava will sometimes use the 'old' Lava sound alongside the new.
'Cat' will sometimes play 'Dog' instead.
Zombified Piglins now look a little more like Zombie Pigmen

A brief history:
Programmer Art+ originally started out as a simple texture pack made in 1.15 designed to fix Honey Bottles. I realised that Honey Bottles' texture was the same as 1.14's new glass bottles, while I had been using Programmer Art, which causes bottles to suddenly morph and change into a new texture instead of looking like a filled bottle. This is why the icon for the texture pack uses the 'new' honey bottle texture, as an homage to where it all started.

Did you fix the villager textures in this? In the base programmer art it uses the new villager textures as a base (specifically seen when they don't have a profession) instead of the old one.

1. the Blackstone (and its variants) texture should be a dark recolor of the cobblestone (and its variants) textures

2. Blackstone bricks (and its variants) should be a dark recolor of the stone bricks (and its variants) textures

3. crimson and warped [​stripped] logs/[​stripped] wood (the 6 sided one)/planks/slab/stairs/fence [​gate] textures should be a recolor of oak [​stripped] log/[​stripped] wood (the 6 sided one)/planks/slab/stairs/fence [​gate] textures

4. remove zombie piglin's ear and snout

5.why is there 2 rose textures?



6. maybe you can add the old sounds?



7. why didn't you change the crying obsidian/respawn anchor texture? Minecraft LITERALLY DID THE CRYING OBSIDIAN TEXTURE FOR YOU!

1 & 2 - I wanted to keep the unique style of Blackstone while not replacing it with an existing texture. While repeats of cobblestone has appeared in the past (Netherrack and Endstone specifically), I felt like the blackstone textures were unique enough to be somewhat preserved and didn't conflict with the old artstyle as much as others.

3 - This is something I've overlooked, and I plan to fix soon. Thank you for informing me.

4 - I'm not very experienced with how Minecraft handles models, and I'm not entirely sure how possible this is due to the way that Zombified Piglins are modeled compared to Zombie Pigmen.

5 - The two roses are left over due to some issues I had with them converting over versions; I believe due to how Minecraft searches for poppies with 'red flower' in one version and 'poppy' in another.

6 - I made this pack to mainly fix inconsistencies in newer textures with the provided 'Programmer Art', rather than as an Alpha/Beta pack. The old textures/sounds I did add were just small pieces I recovered that I felt added to Minecraft's atmosphere better.

7. I did change Crying Obsidian and Respawn Anchor textures, they're just very subtle. While they still use the 'new' purple lines (as the Lapis crying obsidian produces purple particles that look weird), they use the old obsidian texture instead of the new one. I added a picture in the gallery above to show this.
