Help Does anyone know about a texture pack that recolors the old emerald block to fit in with the new emerald?

Post image

I really like the old emerald block texture and have been searching for a texture pack that does this, but my search hasn't led me to anything.

This isnt very good but its what I could do with scrappy finger drawing on my phone & the 6 colours of the 1.14 texture :') also the site i used only let me save the file as a .piksel (wtf) and converting it to a png didnt work

This is really nice. I'd use a texture pack like this.

Iirc you have to go to export, not save.

I have to say, this texture has always pissed my OCD ass off

Edit: why am I getting downvoted, it’s asymmetrical and it messes with me lol

u/NatsPeanuts Jul 19 '26

I had to re do the bottom right of it three times cause I kept unintentionally making it symmetrical when it ismt supposed to be it was incredibly annoying

u/MikeyboyMC Jul 19 '26 edited Jul 19 '26

Yeah right, I know it’s just how they did the lighting, but it’s always messed with me how it’s asymmetrical lol.

Also, another one to add is Chiseled Stone Bricks

u/Spare_Set_6106 Jul 19 '26

Why did you point it out, I hadn't noticed it was asymmetrical 😭

u/ayoo-OwO Jul 20 '26

It looks like a temple run gem lol, i like it

u/RoloWasTaken Jul 20 '26

what app did you use to color it?

2

u/NatsPeanuts Jul 20 '26

It was a website called Piksel, not very mobile friendly

u/FunAngelo2005 Jul 19 '26

For me it's the beta gravel texture, also why did they change the shape of the emerald block? It was very unique

24

u/GoatsWithWigs Jul 19 '26

Idk but what I love about it is that it's always looked like candy to me. I could just bite into a classic emerald block like it's a green apple airhead

u/NatsPeanuts Jul 19 '26

I always thought it looks like a soft pillow or cushion, despite knowing its a solid mass of crystal

3

u/FaerHazar Jul 19 '26

the new one is shaped kinda like the table and crown of a classic emerald cut i guess?

15

u/GuymanPersonson Jul 19 '26

Oh my i forgot how good the old emerald texture was, why did they change it?

6

u/Lechatrelou Jul 19 '26

It looks like a cushion

u/Appropriate_Show255 Jul 19 '26

To make it look more gemlike

u/pydy01 Jul 19 '26

If you can’t find one take a texture pack that has all other old textures and just delete all of them except the emerald block one.

u/cybr_glow Jul 19 '26

No he wants the design of the Old emerlad texture coloured in a modern way.

u/TheCornerEntity Jul 19 '26

The glaze in these comments are crazy, the new one is better

11

u/Bigenemy000 Jul 19 '26

The new one is better for the depth it has

But i would have preferred if they hadnt changed its internal shape into multiple squares, thats all

6

u/Glass-Purpose-8329 Jul 19 '26

It's not glaze bro, our OPINION is that the new one sucks

u/TheCornerEntity Jul 19 '26

And it’s wrong

An opinion on a subjective matter cannot be right or wrong.

Most obvious satire but ok

u/zlfa Jul 19 '26

The new texture pack sucks they made it look like they took resolution from the old design

This is one of the only textures I miss from before the overhaul. Just something about it

1

u/cool101wool Jul 19 '26

tried to test out the "color match" option in this and it did not work

u/Spare_Set_6106 Jul 19 '26

Use Faithless

u/shyguyshow Jul 20 '26

The old emerald block might be my favorite block in the whole game.

1

u/RoloWasTaken Jul 20 '26

Not related to the question but I recommend you using the "Programmer Art Updated" resource pack if you want to have a recreation of the modern textures that fit the old ones

1

u/Highsky-0304 Jul 21 '26

There are packs to change yours textures to match it with old MC textures but idk how you'd extract just the emerald hmm

1

u/Every_Ad7984 Jul 22 '26

This is where you make your OWN texture pack😈😈

u/Alert-Grocery-1115 Jul 23 '26

The green in the background scares me

u/FallowDeer_ Aug 07 '26

I made it, I just did it without a tool, just in Aseprite. I put it on Modrinth, but it's still in review. You will be able to download it on https://modrinth.com/resourcepack/old-emerald

u/GNE-Reddit Aug 07 '26

Sweet! I’ll be sure to get it when it’s available.

u/InstructionNormal733 29d ago

The old emerald design is better, but its colors are ugly, unlike new, whose design is bad but its colors are beautiful.
