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 pack is amazing, but I aboslutely hate the new ore look.
LittlePotato
Such a great pack :)
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?
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.

Does this work on bedrock?
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?
Admin
This is a feature of Optifine. You need optifine for this.
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.
Triggerstand
Put the graphics on fancy or higher.
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.
Admin
Stay True is a resource pack, not a shader pack.
Lauren
I did everything but the texture pack never showed up.
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
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.
MiningSophia
I am a girl and i love the lavender Awsome texture pack
Moose King
Can I disable the chests looking like presents?
helikses
that’s a Minecraft Christmas thing, the resource pack has nothing to do with it, should go away in a day or two
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!
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.
Anarchy
The combined textures aren’t working for me, anyone know why this could be?
Admin
Combined textures will only work if you have optifine installed, as this is an optifine feature.
Sebastian
do you know what specific setting allows for connected textures in optifine?
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.
BlazingDrake75
if you combine this with 3d textures (another texture pack) i think it would be the best texture pack ever made
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
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
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.
Reggie
I had that too! I turned my graphics from fast to fancy and it fixed it!
flaming
can you make a version without combined textures It would make it so much better if you ask me
plug
I agree
Lucas Jackson
One of the most beautiful textures I’ve ever seen! It’s very simple, but it makes it very beautiful
Nathan Lloyd
missing textures for some of the still-growing pumpkin vines?
Tobi is Weird
might just be me but my tree leaves are way too big. anyway to fix it?
AngelOnDust
