Defined Realism, a new resource pack for vanilla Minecraft, has just been released. It has taken the gaming community by storm, going by the high number of downloads. Within two days of its release, Defined Realism has managed to attain almost two thousand downloads-quite an impressive performance for such a short time. The popularity isn’t without reason, though, because this resource pack is packed with great features. It transforms the way you play vanilla Minecraft, the experience with the visuals. The developers of Defined Realism mainly focused on bringing improvements to the textures of vanilla Minecraft, removing noise and scaling up the resolution to bring in more details and clarity. And they highly succeeded in that. The result was a resource pack that makes Minecraft realistic, smooth and easy to play. It’s designed to bring smoothness in the graphics of the game, making it easy flowing, especially if you’re one of those players who find it not to be.

The Defined Realism resource pack removes noise from the textures, making the visuals to appear sharp and somewhat smoother. I should say no other resource pack managed to do it before, not in any way closer to what Defined Realism has done. Seems like noise from textures has always been hard to eliminate, but Defined Realism did remove it just perfectly. And more still, the resource pack enhanced the detail in the textures while maintaining a moderate resolution. Gamers will love this because it turns the playing experience to another level of realism and smoothness. Defined Realism packs a lot of details, so it runs a resolution of 32×32, up from the the standard 16×16. But this should cause you no worry because the resource pack still runs without any hitches on vanilla Minecraft, the higher resolution notwithstanding. I should say Defined Realism is a resource pack you should try out if you want a smoother and realistic gameplay of vanilla Minecraft.
Defined Realism should be compatible with all of these Minecraft versions: 1.12.2 - 1.12 - 1.11.2 - 1.11

Not working in 1.12.2 vanilla with zero modifications or addons present. This is the only mod to the game made. Some textures changed but most foliage, water and sky same as vanilla.
