The Stay True resource pack is the perfect addition for anyone looking to change the appearance of Minecraft without disrupting the classic gameplay that gamers continue to enjoy after so many years. The Stay True resource pack significantly alters many items in game, such as the grass, flowers, logs, planks, doors, and much more. The visual appearance of the Stay True also impacts the connected textures to help the entire world feel much more immersive and realistic for anyone that plays Minecraft. The standard resolution of the textures on the Stay True resource pack remains at 16×16, which prevents frame-rate drops for anyone that has a computer system that is capable of running the vanilla version of Minecraft without any issues. The pack provides a much more immersive and realistic appearance for gamers without hurting the classic charm of Minecraft.

Stay True should be compatible with all of these Minecraft versions: 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

    The cobblestone texture is the same as the vanilla textures and all birch trees are ping regardless of the biome

  2. ujhkbyhm

    please fix the 1.21 version, it will not load.

  3. huh

    is there one for 1.8.9?

  4. Isaac

    How would I get this on my Nintendo switch?? If that’s even possible.

    1. maike

      not possible without modding your switch

    1. PotatoPlant

      i want to know that as well

  5. Aria

    Will this be updated to 1.19.4?

  6. Catalina Brian

    This resource pack is beautifully simple and fancy! ❤

  7. Zephyr

    Please make stay true compatible with bedrock, love the shaders but would be happy if I could use it on my bedrock server :)

  8. Hardifromindonesia

    Bruh,update texture to 1.19.51

  9. Jona

    I really like the look of the netherite chestplate but its not working with the 1.19 version of the texture pack. Now im using the version for the 1.18. Can somebody help me to fix that?

    1. Manago

      did you try downloading the newer version?

  10. Skye

    Are you going to update this for 1.19.3?

  11. cheese4_

    Very nice texture pack. It is similar to vanilla, but also adds some very cool features. I especially like the fancy leaves, although they can cause lag issues, especially in jungles

  12. Stophenio

    Can I use this without optfine? what features & issues I might have if I don’t use optfine. Asking because I don’t really enjoy using optfine since it makes my PC more laggy for some reason.

  13. Stefanie

    Heyy, for me the connection texture not working and I have optifine. Is there a solution for this?

  14. Beanie

    I love this texture pack so much. It so well done and pretty for the eyes *-* <3

  15. kitzuro

    does this texture pack work with fabric?

  16. Zaphina

    I saw the pink leaves in the screenshots and really want to use them, but none of the leaf blocks are pink in game? Where do I find them? I’ve checked different biomes etc.
    I really love this pack overall!

    1. Admin

      Try to set leaves setting to fancy. Also, optifine is required for that, so make sure to install it.

  17. nykaii

    Is there a way to not change the color of grass to this autumn one? I love everything about the back but those birch leaves and grass turning brown…

  18. DDC

    is there a way to delete bushy leaves?

    1. Admin

      We just added a link to get the official add-on that removes the bushy leaves. Just install it on top of the main pack.

  19. oStreax

    there tons of black and pink blocks?

  20. Adroz

    is this a shader next to a texture or just a texture?

    1. Admin

      This is resource pack only.

  21. Ausrine

    Hi i wanted to know if theres a way to remove the textures of the grass when you’re in diffrent bioms like i live in a burch-biom and the grass is orange and ugly, is there a way to remove that??

    1. Ausrine

      oh nvm i figured it out

  22. emirhan

    I love this pack but there are huge white areas around the tree leaves and it makes the game unplayable how can I fix it?

    1. Mikettedaydreamer

      Do you have the trees on fancy in settings?

  23. Nat

    Does this work with 1.18.2? It says it’s compatible but it won’t change the loading screen or textures.. I love this pack, it’s beautiful but yeah, not working. And I can’t play with optifine because I use fabric and optifabric mod has not updated.

    1. Admin

      Don’t know about fabric, but we just tested it on Minecraft 1.18.2 and OptiFine HD U H6 (1.18.2) and it works great.

  24. bunny

    love this pack, but what causes the birch leaves to have two options? i wanted pink leaves but now my biomes all orange. is there a way to put them to pink specifically?

  25. yes man

    love the texture pack but the leaves on trees sometimes annoy me because of how there extended in a way to look kind of weird

  26. Canuck-Errant

    Bit of an oversight – it seems like the mossy cobblestone and mossy stone brick textures don’t extend the same way their non-mossy counterparts do; is it possible to add those variations in?

  27. Tidowz

    I love your resource pack sooo much! One suggestion I would love to see is for wood to connect with stone/dirt on the floor. Great work!!

  28. Emachi

    is there a way to make the birch trees have normal green leaves? In some biomes the leaves are orange and some pink, and when a tree is in between 2 biomes it looks really strange with half of the tree being pink and half of it being orange.

  29. MooeyLovesCows

    Hopefully this is updated for 1.18! I love this pack!

  30. _treesap

    hey! i followed all of the directions on the curseforge (couldn’t comment there, don’t have twitch) to make the birch leaves green again. they’re still orange, any idea how to fix this?

    1. Admin

      Is Optifine installed for the version of Minecraft you are using this pack on?

  31. Italian_SweetJ0Lly_ITalian

    GOOOD GOOOD GOOOD GOD GOD GOOD

  32. voronov

    the pack is amazing, but I aboslutely hate the new ore look.

  33. LittlePotato

    Such a great pack :)

  34. Fancy

    My pack is glitchy and some blocks become a solid color and invisible at certain distances and my leaves seem to be the most affected by it. Is there a fix?

    1. Fireblazen

      Try turning off anti-aliasing for invisible blocks that worked for me. Also I turned up Mipmap level and Mipmap Type, which I think solved all my issues with invisible blocks and solid colors. Since turning off Mipmaping caused solid colors and Mipmap Type I did at the same time as turning anti-aliasing off and it all just worked. This is under Quality setting as well.

  35. Kyla DeCleene

    Does this work on bedrock?

  36. Antra

    Hi so I downloaded it and everything seems to be working except that the textures aren’t connecting like in the pictures. Like how the sand and the dirt blend with one another. What could be the issue?

    1. Admin

      This is a feature of Optifine. You need optifine for this.

  37. Mika

    I have a problem with this texture pack, the leaves look all weird and none of the textures changed and I have optifine installed, I don’t know what could be the problem.

    1. Triggerstand

      Put the graphics on fancy or higher.

  38. Benjaming miguel sanchez

    is the stay true shaders pack avaiable for minecraft bedrock edition? ive been looking for a type of shaders for a while now but it seems the 1.16.2 update has stopped all previoud shaders from working.

    1. Admin

      Stay True is a resource pack, not a shader pack.

  39. Lauren

    I did everything but the texture pack never showed up.

  40. WoodTakah

    The loading screen changed, but the textures didn’t I have Optifine btw so I don’t know why it’s not working, I even installed the correct version of the texture pack

    1. Admin

      This pack works great from our side. We have personally checked it.
      Please note that at first glance, you won’t notice much change as this is the default-themed pack.

  41. MiningSophia

    I am a girl and i love the lavender Awsome texture pack

  42. Moose King

    Can I disable the chests looking like presents?

    1. helikses

      that’s a Minecraft Christmas thing, the resource pack has nothing to do with it, should go away in a day or two

  43. Ank

    i think its because I don’t have optifine but the leaves are really weird. I can’t have optifine on ym small gaming laptop since Im afraid it will cause a virus or be too big but other than that, the resource pack was wonderful!

    1. Admin

      Optifine is used by most Minecraft players. This is an essential mod for the game if you want to use resource packs with all the possible functions. Custom sky, connected textures, etc. are all optifine features. In addition, optifine will increase your fps slightly, usually not much, but still.. something.

  44. Anarchy

    The combined textures aren’t working for me, anyone know why this could be?

    1. Admin

      Combined textures will only work if you have optifine installed, as this is an optifine feature.

      1. Sebastian

        do you know what specific setting allows for connected textures in optifine?

  45. Grant Mills

    This is a fantastic resource pack. It walks perfectly the balance between improving the base game but not alienating the original experience. Truly an artistic touch.

  46. BlazingDrake75

    if you combine this with 3d textures (another texture pack) i think it would be the best texture pack ever made

  47. asfasfdasfsdfsf

    also i dont really like how the birch is orange i know its meant to be autumn but i kind of wish there was a way to toggle that

  48. asfasfdasfsdfsf

    i dont like how it makes less rain, i love rain
    other than that i like it but its not the best texture pack ever

  49. Riv

    Hi there, I love the texture, so cute but simple, but an issue is that the leaves are glitched, and i dont know what to do. It’s causing my game to lag, and it looks pretty bad.

    1. Reggie

      I had that too! I turned my graphics from fast to fancy and it fixed it!

  50. flaming

    can you make a version without combined textures It would make it so much better if you ask me

  51. Lucas Jackson

    One of the most beautiful textures I’ve ever seen! It’s very simple, but it makes it very beautiful

  52. Nathan Lloyd

    missing textures for some of the still-growing pumpkin vines?

  53. Tobi is Weird

    might just be me but my tree leaves are way too big. anyway to fix it?

  54. AngelOnDust

    the block blending represented in the pictures isn’t working for me. does anyone know how to fix that? many thanks AngelOnDust
