We review the MS Painted texture pack in this article. It is absolutely unique due to its various features. You probably have never seen such textures before. Stridey created the pack with Microsoft Paint. The raster graphics editor is extremely limited and you can see that in Minecraft. There are only 20 colors. Despite the fact that there are no realistic textures in the MS Painted pack, the project has become popular in recent years. Originally, it was a joke, but players liked the cursed blocks and items. Everything is colorful and kid-friendly. However, the Minecraft world looks too garish in some cases. The texture pack is certainly not for everyone because the graphics style is freaky.

How the MS Painted Texture Pack Transformed Minecraft

The pack drawn with MS Paint is also often featured in top lists on popular websites and in YouTube videos. It’s remarkable that Stridey managed to create a complete resource pack with outdated image editing software. As a result, Minecraft looks simple. Nevertheless, the 128x resolution is comparatively high. Other websites say that the resolution is only 16x, but this is not true. We don’t know how people believe that because the developer explicitly emphasizes the high-resolution blocks.

Furthermore, the MS Paint texture pack contains files for Minecraft mods. You can use mods to fundamentally change your Minecraft world in single-player and multiplayer modes. For example, the MS Painted pack works with AppleSkin, Mod Menu, Biomes O Plenty, Presence Footsteps, Figura, and Effective mods. Furthermore, Terralith support has been incorporated into MS Painted. So if you are using OptiFine with Continuity, the biomes now display accurate Terralith color maps. Additionally, alpha islands blocks retain their original MS Painted textures. Only a few resource packs have textures for mod packs. If you like playing with mods, you should also check out the Dandelion texture pack. Dandelion doesn’t look strange, but it’s also in cartoon style. You feel like you’re in a cartoon. The simplistic textures make your gaming experience enjoyable.

MS Painted for Minecraft Dungeons

There is also a version for Minecraft Dungeons available. All MS Painted texture pack content has been made compatible with Minecraft Dungeons using a tool from the Dokucraft team. This is a great thing because only a few community add-ons have been released for the Minecraft spin-off. However, this subproject is still in the alpha phase. This is why there are maybe bugs and lags, but the main Minecraft PC project works perfectly.

More operating systems will be supported in the future, and new updates are planned. Overall, you can’t take the textures too seriously because it’s a fun project. It’s just a funny texture pack. Just like Moving Blocks, for example. MS Painted resource pack is made to make you laugh and distract you from the sometimes hard everyday life. If you like Stridey’s work, you can follow him on social networks.

Video & Screenshots

All the armor and tools look like they are copied from an older computer game. The old-school textures fit great because the software Paint was released back in 1985. Back then, the program was called Paintbrush. If you like retro textures, we recommend the Retro NES texture pack for Minecraft. Retro NES Revived is compatible with Minecraft PE, Bedrock, and MCPE.

The screenshots might remind you of how you used to draw crazy things with Microsoft Paint. Drawings are always colorful in this app and that’s why the texture pack is colorful as well. As a result, it’s super appropriate for kids. The reason is that the Minecraft world looks friendlier. Even the scary zombies suddenly look totally harmless. A small disadvantage arises from this because the game graphics look overexposed. You can fortunately change this detail in the Minecraft settings by reducing the brightness. Beginners may have problems with the installation, which is why we will teach you how to install the MS Painted texture pack in the next section.
