Wayukian Resource Pack 1.21 / 1.20

The Wayukian resource pack was released many years ago and it is genuinely one of the absolute best resource packs that kept getting updates constantly. The updates come from a different user than the creator that took over the project and continues working on it under the name of New Wayukian, which is fantastic to see! It is what some would call a modest resource pack without the aspiration of introducing photorealistic textures, focusing instead on a classic feel. What the resource pack truly offers is a visual upgrade with a medieval and rustic twist that looks incredible in-game. It touches upon textures, items, mobs, particle effects, terrain, weapons, armor, and the GUI to make Minecraft a much more enjoyable RPG experience. Many of the elements it adds or changes in Minecraft are wonderfully meant to improve the RPG aspects of the game. The resolution of the textures was maintained at 16x to preserve the spirit of Minecraft and to avoid reducing framerates, making it run super smoothly. Being such a light resource pack that does not require a powerful computer to achieve decent framerates, it is also wonderfully PvP friendly. PvP players will definitely appreciate that the New Wayukian texture pack offers high framerates and loads of new item textures to play around with during intense matches.

The textures are not changed significantly, keeping things familiar yet fresh. There are a few subtle tweaks here and there in terms of textures and colors that really pull the look together nicely. Some textures for terrain were made darker while others were replaced completely to fit the rustic theme. There are also loads of new textures for various objects such as chests, crates, chains, campfires, skulls, various decoration objects, windows, lamps, shooting range practice targets, and many more which add so much detail. There are also new textures for doors and a few new paintings that look great on walls. For mobs and player textures, a lot of effort was clearly invested by the team. There are new scarier mobs such as skeletons, giant spiders, zombies, dragons, bats, robots, and many more that make exploring at night much more thrilling. There are also amazing new textures for NPCs. You will be able to find NPCs in knight armor, dressed as a priest, dark knight, dressed as a king, sorcerer, butcher, butler, and many more. All these visual improvements make it possible to create amazing castles, dungeons, scary forests that allow you to play Minecraft as an RPG game. As the New Wayukian resource pack touches upon sky textures, clouds, and celestial bodies such as the sun and moon, installation needs to be done through Optifine. Optifine wonderfully enables the use of these special features that are required by the resource pack.
