On the list of the best Minecraft Texture Packs of all time, the NAPP Texture Pack should not be missing. All textures are optimized down to the last detail, are a true graphic masterpiece, and set completely new standards. The idea of the pack is to transform the whole game into a fresh and completely new look. By the way, the creator of the Not Another Photorealistic Pack, as the full name says, is a professional artist. Accordingly, the development of high-resolution textures is his specialty and you will immediately notice in Minecraft that he is a real professional. Of course, he uses professional software programs to work on the blocks, which he knows well. These programs are also used to create the perfect color gradients that visually connect each block. Individual parts thus become a great whole. As a result of this hard work, you can now admire extremely realistic blocks that will stay in your memory for a longer time.
Currently, the NAPP Texture Pack is for Java Edition and is always compatible with the latest Optifine version. If you are a Bedrock player, you will have to be patient for an indefinite period of time, because a NAPP Bedrock download link will be available in the future. Therefore, you will need a PC for the pack, which should be very powerful. It’s best if you test it yourself because 1024x and 512x Texture Packs push even the best computers to their limits. You may also have to expect lower FPS. However, the pack will surely gain more popularity in the future, because there is almost only positive feedback.
NAPP is compatible with these Minecraft versions: 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 – 1.15.2 – 1.15 – 1.14.4 – 1.14
Screenshots & Video






In the screenshots, you can now see the realistic environment created by the NAPP Pack. A few features are optimized for current RTX- and non-RTX-Shaders and intensify the level of detail. We highly recommend one of the shader packs mentioned further below, as these shaders support parallax mapping. Normally it is not possible to add 3D blocks in Minecraft and therefore this 3D effect is needed.
How to install NAPP Texture Pack
Now we will explain how to download and install the NAPP Texture Pack for free. The download link will take you to the official site of the pack.

Recommended shader settings
You can use the following free shader packs to enable Parallax Occlusion Mapping (POM) to give all blocks a 3D effect and more depth. You should also read our instructions for the best settings. After that everything will look like on our screenshots and videos. However, not all shaders support this feature, which also drops the FPS a lot.
Settings: Click on Shader Options in the menu, then on Surface Options and then on Texture Res.: “512x” | Parallax Occ. Map: “On”.
Settings: In the settings click on Shader Options, then on Visual Advanced Materials and finally on Parallax Occ. Map: “On” | Parallax Quality “512x” | Parallax Depth: “10cm or less” | Parallax Distance: “Increase as Needed for Diameter of POM effect”.
Settings: Click Shader Options and then Surface. Parallax Occ. Map. “ON” | POM Depth: “1.5” | pomSampleAmmount: “512”.
Settings: Click Shader Options, then Normal Map, and then RP Support: Parallax. RP Res.: “512x” | POM Depth: “0.15 or less” | POM Render Distance: “Increase as Needed for Diameter of POM effect”.
Of course, you can also customize the settings to suit your preferences and hardware. By the way, the developers use the BSL shader pack because it showed the best performance in their test runs.
FAQ
If you ever have problems with Minecraft, NAPP, or Optifine, this might help you. The same questions are asked over and over again, so we’ve summarized the most common ones.
This is probably due to the low performance of your hardware. The best thing to do is to change your Minecraft and shader options. For example, you can lower the render distance as a first step.
This is because not all textures have been completed yet. You can safely ignore this error message and continue.
Check that you have activated all POM settings. After that, you should have a look at our guide for shaders on this page.
If you don’t see the ZIP archive in Minecraft, first create a new folder and unzip the downloaded file there. Then move the file to your Resource Packs folder.

Summary

People thinking a shader like this can run on IOS/Android.. smh
Can I use it for android?
why does it show incompatible with 1.19.2
The creator has used the wrong pack_format. NAPP still works with 1.19, so just ignore the incompatible error.
