Astral Client FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Does Astral Client work on Minecraft Java edition?
No, Astral Client is built exclusively for Minecraft Bedrock Edition and Pocket Edition. Although it styles your home screen and settings menu to look like Java Edition and Lunar Client, it only runs on Bedrock platforms.
How do I turn on Astral Client in game?
Because Astral Client works as a client-side resource pack, you activate it through your game's Global Resources menu. Once moved to the active column, the custom homescreen and UI changes will load automatically.
Why are my menus not changing to the Astral Client ui?
If you only enabled the pack inside a specific world's settings, the main menu and settings overhaul will not load properly. You must activate Astral Client in the main Global Resources settings from the title screen, and place it at the top of your active pack list so other packs do not override it.
Can I use Astral Client on multiplayer servers like bedwars?
Yes, since it functions as a client-side optimization and visual resource pack, its features work on multiplayer servers without the server needing the pack installed. Occasionally, a server that forces its own mandatory texture pack may override some of the custom block textures.
How does Astral Client help in pvp?
It removes common visual distractions that block your screen during combat by applying Low Fire and low shields. It also removes distance fog and makes water and glass clear so you can track opponents easily.
Where did the Bedrock settings buttons go?
Astral Client completely redesigns the standard Bedrock settings screen to mimic the layout of Minecraft Java Edition. All of your normal Bedrock options are still there, just reorganized into the cleaner Java-style categories.
What block textures are changed by Astral Client?
The pack adds visible borders to ores so you can spot them quickly in caves or during matches. It also changes building and utility blocks by giving you clear glass, smooth glowstone, and clear Redstone.
Does Astral Client add a separate mod menu button?
No, all of the visual tweaks like outlined ores, no fog, and low shields are baked directly into the resource pack. Once the pack is active in your Global Resources, all of these PvP and performance tweaks are automatically turned on.
Will using Astral Client disable my achievements?
No, because Astral Client operates as a visual and UI resource pack rather than a behavior pack, it does not disable Xbox Live achievements in your survival worlds.
Does Astral Client help with lag?
Yes, it is designed as an optimization pack that strips away heavy visual clutter. Features like removing fog, simplifying block textures, and streamlining the UI help improve performance on lower-end devices.
