How to Make a Minecraft Custom Texture Pack 1.19

Hi George here and we’re going to improve the look of this portal right here by making a custom texture pack and changing the look of that obsidian okay switch over to the desktop and gather the materials that we need here we go the first thing you need is a place to

Build your new pack in so I just made a new folder here on my C drive and I called it pack just a big blank floor to work in we now need to grab the texture file that we’ll be working with so for that let’s go back to the launcher there

We go I’m currently in the Java Edition right here go up to installations and at the top line here latest release we’re making this for 119 3 right there go over here see that folder icon right there just the right of the play button click on that and it opens up the

Minecraft folder in here and then here scroll down until you find versions which is right here go into versions and then find your version we want 119 3 which is right there let’s go inside of that and you should see two files in here a jar file and a Json if

You don’t see the dot jar and Dot Json then go up here to view and come down to show and put a check right here next to found them extensions right there this is Windows 11. if you’re in Windows 10 then just go up here to the top click on view

And remember here someplace you’ll find a check box for Quantum extensions same thing okay we want this jar file and I want to copy this over to our working folder so let’s bring that working folder up there it is and I’ll just right drag this in here and copy

Okay we’re all set let’s get this out of the way we’ll come back to that later now this is just a zip file so I want to change this from dot jar.zip so click into the name a couple of times click in once click in a second time

Like that and then backspace over where it says jar and change that to say zip and choose yes okay now right click on this and open in new window right here there we go I’m going to change the view up here make it easier to see this let’s

Just go here to list the first thing you want is in this first folder here go way over into the P section over here and you want that pack PNG this right drag it over here and copy that’s just that grass block image that’s used as a thumbnail for your

Resource pack you can do anything you want you can do your own image if you want to this is just a square picture 128 by 128 and that’s a PNG file that’s all it is nothing special about that okay so go back in here again and then go into assets

Then into Minecraft and here come down to textures down here and inside of texture is going to block right here and we want the obsidian block so I’ll just scroll down to find that and it’s right there okay right drag that over here and copy here’s our block

We now need to make our folder structure and you’ll see that right here at the top assets Minecraft textures and block I’m going to put this right here and let’s put this right underneath and we’ll just copy these folders right down here in our working file so new folder first one is assets

There we go go inside of that one new folder second one is Minecraft there we go inside of that one new folder next one is textures here we go inside of that one new folder and this one’s block okay I got our structure in here let’s

Go back to the main folder here pack so there’s our folders all set to go we have our pack PNG we have our obsidian image let’s grab one more thing before we work with the obsidian picture and that’s just that we need a pack.mc meta file Minecraft used

To include that they no longer do so I have that up on my website let’s go ahead and grab that and this right here I’ll put this link in the description and also on the page right here if you want to code your own there it is right

There or easy way to come down here and download it this is all set to go and 119 3 the pack format is 12. I’ll just click on this and we’ll download this into that same folder choose save and there we go that’s done okay let’s now right click

On this one open a new window and there’s a packmc meta file just drag it over here you can then delete that zip file and that’s that right there okay so that’s all set to go we can now close this down and we can close this down

We have all the parts that we need to make our new resource pack so let’s now go ahead and change the look of this we’ll be doing this with an online editor this time and we’ll be using Pixlr this is a free tool just go ahead and sign up and then

Log in I’ll just log in right now right here and we’ll use the advanced photo editor right here in the middle gives us the most options let’s just get this out of the way there we go and we’ll open up an image let’s hit obsidian PNG right there

Choose open now it’s real small we need to zoom in on this thing very small image there we go if you want to you can make this image bigger see a bit better resolution go to page come down to resize page that’s just scaling it make this one twice as big

32 by 32 and uncheck smoothing we don’t want to have that on there just uncheck that and choose apply there we go just a little bit better resolution this way and what I want to do is just to make a bit more exciting I’m going to change the coloration here

Make it brighter make it more you know more of a gold like look and we’ll do that up here with the adjustment section come down to Hue saturation and here we can change things the Hue is the color just kind of slide it back and forth to

Find what you want I want something kind of in the yellows that’s right in here someplace bring the saturation way up this is the brightness of things let’s colorize that sometimes that works better and more saturation and let’s find a good yellow in here right about in there I have mine sitting

Here at 136 negative 136 just apply on that I want to make it brighter back to adjustments in here it’s come down to brightness and contrast and spring our brightness up that’s looking better I’m going to leave the contrast alone so full brightness contrast alone that’s a lot nicer much

More like what I want on this let’s see if we can do anything else on that a little bit more vibrancy in here let’s try this a bit more Vibrance just a little bit better so it’s a kind of a better look that will go clear to

The top on that one and apply there we go it’s a lot brighter a lot more gold looking like it’s kind of made out of gold as opposed to made out of obsidian so I’ll save this file save and keep it the PNG right here and save as

And let’s now put it into the right folder still unpack let’s go inside assets Minecraft textures block and save it right here choose save and that’s done okay close that down and we’re all set we’ve now changed the look let’s now finish off our resource pass let’s go

Back over to the desktop for that okay one thing here to do with the pack MC meta I have been opening up in notepad plus plus it’s really good for this kind of fast editing let’s bring that up right here now pack format is already okay if you downloaded the right one

And just change the name up here and I’ll call this one obsidian there we go and we’ll save that that’s all done we can now build the resource pack and what this folder over here hold the control key down grab that pack MC meta and that pack PNG or your

Own if you’re using your own Pac PNG right click and compress to zip file this is Windows 11. just like that if your Windows 10 you go up here as a share Tab and you’ll find zip up there okay this thing a name there we go obsidian zip and we’re all

Set we can now put this into the game and test it out I’ll put that right over here go back to the launcher back to the folder and this time let’s come down until you find the resource packs which is right here open this one up and

Let’s just take that zip file and drag and drop it in here there it is that’s done get this out of the way we can go ahead and play this now and test it out now my game’s already running so let’s go back to the game The Radars go into options

Into resource packs and you should see your new pack over here left hand side there is Obsidian click on the Arrow comes over here right hand side that’s good done and done again now I have a special pack in here to change my colors in here you
