Bordercraft for Minecraft

Review Bordercraft

A resource pack called BorderCraft gives the in-game textures a more realistic appearance. Besides, it can boast a very high resolution, which will give the textures a smooth and elaborate look. This texture pack will affect not only blocks and objects but also the overall atmosphere, including animals and other mobs. Another feature of this mod is that one creature will have different textures, which will appear randomly. You can install the BorderCraft resource pack on the 1.7, 1.8, and 1.12 game versions.

The first change to notice after launching the game is the main menu screen. Its background image has changed. It now depicts another landscape, but it is more beautiful and suggests to you what textures this pack adds to the game. Instead of the game title, there is now the name of the resource pack with two inscriptions at the bottom. The buttons' textures have also changed, becoming blueish. When you hover over a certain menu button, it will be highlighted.

The inventory GUI has acquired a new look. It has become more modern and of blue, light blue, and dark shades. The health bar has changed: now it will be in the form of a gapless red indicator, which will allow you to more precisely determine how many health points you have left. The hunger bar has changed only slightly. It has retained the old structure, but its texture has become smoother.

When you spawn in the game world, you will notice that it has become brighter. Having taken a look at the sky, you can see that those familiar white square clouds have disappeared altogether. There are now various clouds in the sky, which have different shapes and darker or lighter shades. This will look very realistic. Besides, the sun has become brighter and acquired visible rays. It is now slightly larger. But the most important thing is that it has acquired a round shape. The sky will be no less beautiful at night. It will now be studded with numerous stars that spread across the horizon. Having looked at the moon, you will notice that it has become brighter, and its texture is now more realistic. Most importantly, the moon has also acquired a round shape.

In general, the colors of the game environment have become more saturated. On the grass block, you can notice minor details. That is, small blades and different shadows are visible on it, which gives it a realistic appearance. Having looked at the grass block from its side, you can see that this block is now completely covered with grass. This will give the mountains a green look, as the color of the dirt will practically not be visible. The tall grass has changed accordingly. Its blades have become thicker and higher, and dark particles have appeared on it, which are rather reflections of the shadow from the nearby blades.

The flower textures have also changed. The stem and leaves of the dandelion have acquired a red color, and the flower itself has become unusual. It is yellow at the bottom and purple at the top. The poppy now also has an unusual appearance. Its leaves are of a green color, and their upper part is partly purple. The flower itself is red at the bottom and yellow at the top. The appearance of the other flowers has also changed. They have become uncommon and even a bit fabulous. Only the blue orchid and allium have not acquired new textures.

The hostile mobs have acquired new textures. They have become a little more terrible and scarier, which will give the game a fresh coat of paint. The zombies now have a visible skull, but some of them will not have a head at all, which is very interesting. Some zombies will have red eyes, while others will have empty ones. Their clothes have remained the same, but more dirt and blood particles are visible on them. The skeleton has acquired a smoother texture, and its bones will be better visible. It has become a little darker, and its bow will be more round in shape. The face of the creeper will be somewhat concerned; you can see sadness and longing in its eyes. Its color will now be diverse and random. Thus, you will be able to encounter a creeper of a sand color or a dark one. The spider has acquired a more mottled body. Its color will become lighter. It still has many eyes, but they will be white — only the edges will be of a red color.

The cow will have various textures. One of them is brown with white spots of different sizes that spread throughout the body. Besides, the cow's head will be more elaborate, and its eyes and nose will be better visible on it. There are also cows of golden color, and they also have white spots. Besides, you can see a dark brown cow. The wool of the sheep is now of a grayish shade, and various curls are visible on it, which gives it a realistic appearance. The pig has remained pink, but mud drops and various scratches are now visible on its body, and the face has acquired a more serious look. There is also a pig of a dark orange color. It will have exactly the same features as the pink one, namely scratches and dirt on the body. The chickens are now of a gray color. There are also the white ones, which wings will be better visible.
