Have you ever wondered what Minecraft would look like if it were designed for next-gen consoles? Prepare to be amazed! NAPP (Not Another Photorealistic Pack) is a free Minecraft texture pack that brings HD accuracy to all vanilla textures, combining a realistic style with the beloved videogame feel. The NAPP texture pack is made possible by the incredible support of passionate individuals like you. Led by the developer Miguel, also known as Del_Cieno, this project has been meticulously created over the years with professional Photoshop software. Del_Cieno’s expertise ensures that the NAPP textures are nothing short of extraordinary. Intending to create the ultimate Minecraft graphics, the creator aspires to dedicate himself fully to the development.
It all started when we stumbled upon the NAPP texture pack on Instagram. Intrigued, we decided to follow its development. After a while, a downloadable version became available in 2020. We must say, it exceeded our expectations. Recent updates to NAPP have focused on improving performance and streamlining the pack. The separation of the main pack from some OptiFine features ensures a clean and optimized experience, free from unnecessary clutter. Every texture is optimized to perfection, creating a true graphic masterpiece that sets new standards. Let’s dive into the mesmerizing world of NAPP and see why it’s worth your attention.
NAPP Texture Pack Features
Each block has its unique characteristics and visual flair. Take, for instance, the stones, which possess an allure, unlike anything you’ve seen before in Minecraft. One aspect that sets NAPP apart from other projects is its seamless transitions between different textures. It’s a delightful surprise to witness the smooth blending of blocks. Whether it’s the gradual shift between sand and dirt or the harmonious integration of various stone types, NAPP ensures a visually satisfying experience at every turn.
Furthermore, NAPP adds depth and reflection effects to the Minecraft graphics. Imagine gazing into a pool of water, where the reflection of the surrounding is on the surface. Similarly, the depth of certain blocks, like obsidian, is enhanced. You will also see other elements like grass blocks and ores that are in 3D. If you like PBR blocks, download also rotrBLOCKS or Optimum Realism on our website.
Realistic Ore Variations
Mining for precious resources becomes even more exciting with NAPP’s intricate ore variations. Each type of ore has its distinct appearance, adding a sense of uniqueness to Minecraft caves. From gleaming gold veins to the mesmerizing hues of lapis lazuli, these refined ore blocks make your Minecraft world more realistic. The NAPP pack doesn’t stop at ore textures. It extends its magic to the surrounding environment as well. Trees boast exquisite designs, each with its own bushy leaves on top. Even the simplest of plants are transformed into captivating elements.

The NAPP resource pack works only with the Java Edition and is always compatible with the latest version of OptiFine. Bedrock, MCPE, and Minecraft PE players will have to be patient until an MCPACK port is released in the future. It’s important to note that the higher resolutions of the pack require a powerful PC to run smoothly with high FPS. Testing it on your system is recommended, as even the best gaming machines may be pushed to their limits by the 1024x and 512x resolutions. Lower FPS may be expected as a trade-off for the incredible gameplay quality.

Recommended Shader Settings
To enhance the visual experience, you can install the following free shaders that add Parallax Occlusion Mapping (POM). This feature gives all blocks a 3D effect, which may result in a significant drop in FPS.

It’s important to consult our instructions for the optimal settings to achieve the desired results, resembling what you see in our screenshots and videos.
