One of the best resource packs that one can find for the newer versions of Minecraft is ModernArch Realism. Sometimes, one can be unimpressed after downloading one of the countless free resource packs. ModernArch resource pack, on the other hand, is not likely to disappoint you. What sets ModernArch apart from most other texture packs is that it uses real images to replace cartoonish and blocky minecraft textures. Actual photographs of stone, wood, and brick are used to give the game a photorealistic look. Designed by popular minecraft content creator PackMinecraft, the new resource pack was built with realism instead of improved cartoonish graphics in mind. While this is not the first realism-focused Minecraft resource pack to be released, it is widely considered to be better than many other alternatives. A lot of resource packs make the graphics excessively colorful, the ModernArch pack, on the other hand, uses more subdued colors.

The new textures give the buildings plenty of depth and look better than either the minimalist default graphics or the graphics of other new resource packs. What is also noticeable is the quality of the lighting effects. The lighting effects firmly stand out and are enough to recommend ModernArch over the alternatives. Certainly, the graphics look best if the textures are used in their full 512×512 resolution. However, it is also possible to use the resource pack with a resolution as low as 128×128 to make the graphics usable on lower-end computers. As is the case for other high-end resource packs, one can run into frame rate issues if the full resolution is used without sufficiently powerful hardware. For the new graphics to work as well as possible, one has to use shaders. The creator recommends that you download the SEUS shader that works well with the ModernArch. The pack at the current point in time is free for 128x version, 512x and 1024x resolutions are supported by donations.
ModernArch R should be compatible with all of these Minecraft versions: 26.1 - 1.21.11 - 1.21.10 - 1.21.9 - 1.21.8 - 1.21.7 - 1.21.6 - 1.21.5 - 1.21.4 - 1.21.3 - 1.21.2 - 1.21.1 - 1.21 - 1.20.6 - 1.20.5 - 1.20.4 - 1.20.3 - 1.20.2 - 1.20.1 - 1.20 - 1.19.4 - 1.19.3 - 1.19.2 - 1.19.1 - 1.19 - 1.18.2 - 1.18.1 - 1.18 - 1.17.1 - 1.17 - 1.16.5 - 1.16.4 - 1.16.3 - 1.16.2 - 1.16.1 - 1.16 - 1.15.2 - 1.15.1 - 1.15 - 1.14.4 - 1.14.3 - 1.14.2 - 1.14

Hello, the RAM of my computer is 16 gigs (4 gigs of AMD Radeon graphics) (cpu model corei5 3.8GHZ), its memory is SSD M2 4T, Windows 11 64 BT can I run this with this system?
Donzel odionye

MATIN ABBASZADEH

SoyyBeen
I would be careful, I have 32gb of ram and the 512 still crashes my game cause of ram usage. It only looks good with shaders and I cant even run it with low shader settings. Cool pack tho
Admin
Try allocating more RAM to the Minecraft client.
Lingxingz

Madamjojo
So easy to install, took about 30 seconds! and worked right away with no lag, very good, some of the blocks are still not updated so stand out compared to the realistic style but overall, very impressed.
Ali

if i can, which version? (i need 30fps.)
Kiwi
Just downloaded the free version. Azalea bushs are litterally just black and purple boxes. no leaves at all.
Zefronix09

dusty

杨赟

I’m Japanese, so I don’t know if there’s much of this in English. Why did you change the quartz slab and quartz stairs skins to vanilla?
DenisDaily

I downloaded the texture pack as per the instructions but when I attempt to actually load the resource pack as the active pack, I get a “Resource Reload Failed” message.
I’ve tried with no shaders, with different shaders, and recommended shaders. None of these options allow the resource pack to load. I’m using Optifine and on version 1.19.3 of minecraft.

The creators are total scam artists. Maybe they started out good but they’ve been leeching off their inactive, auto-recurring Patrons for months. They make almost $6k/month and can’t be bothered to post an updated version? Zero new posts since last April? Many of the blocks in game aren’t even changed.
Shameful. And you’re giving them free advertising.
Admin
So why don’t you just unsubscribe and only subscribe back to their patreon when new posts/updates are released? There is no reason to stay subscribed to a page you don’t want to support. We are in no way affiliated with ModernArch. We just reviewed and posted links. Don’t forget, many players use the free version.
yousef
put shaders with it
Me
Don’t bother with the free version, it looks like crap. I didn’t buy the paid version, because paying for a resource pack is ridiculous. Hopefully, those of you who DID buy it are satisfied with it. you can’t advertise as the “best free realistic resource pack” when the actual good one isnt free
Admin
But who ever said or advertised it as “the best FREE realistic resource pack”?
Schnipps
None of these are for anything other than 1.19 versions, so you might wanna take the others off
Admin
It will work fine with any other version, just ignore the incompatibility message.
SheepGOD
I am using optifine and the recommended shaders but the textures are not 3D.
SheepGOD
Wait! I haven’t even got java yet! let me download it then it should work…
Twinkles
Misleading. I purchased the paetron and this is NOT fully updated for 1.19. Many of the base blocks from the original release are still vanilla.
Paintings
Most flowers
Mobs
Tools
any many more. Don’t buy if your expecting a fill complete 1.19 pack
Seza
Hello its me again, i got it to work. i put it in the wrong folder

You need shaders and optifine too.
