Chests Reimagined Resource Pack FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Do I need Optifine for this pack to work?
No, the pack works in vanilla Minecraft, but Optifine or similar optimization mods unlock additional features like smoother chest animations and enhanced visuals. Without them, you'll still get the updated textures and custom 3D models.
Why do my chests look broken or show missing textures?
Make sure the resource pack is loaded above any conflicting packs in your resource pack list, and verify that custom model data is enabled in your game settings. If using Optifine, try disabling and re-enabling custom entity models in the Optifine settings.
Will this pack work with modded chests from other mods?
This pack only retextures and remodels vanilla chests. Chests from other mods will keep their original appearance unless those mods have their own compatibility patches.
How do I enable the custom chest models?
Custom models are enabled by default when you load the pack. If they're not showing, check that your resource pack is properly loaded and that you're not using a conflicting pack that disables custom model data.
Does this pack affect performance on low-end computers?
The custom 3D models are actually less performance-heavy than vanilla chests, so you should see the same or better performance. Pair it with Optifine for maximum optimization on lower-end systems.
Can I use this pack with other visual mods like Sodium or Iris?
Yes, this pack is compatible with most optimization and visual enhancement mods. Just make sure this resource pack loads in the correct order relative to any other packs you're using.
Why do chest animations look stuttery or laggy?
This usually happens without Optifine or a similar mod. Install Optifine and enable smooth animations in its settings, then check that custom entity models are turned on.
Do trapped chests and ender chests get retextured too?
Yes, all chest variants including trapped chests and ender chests receive updated textures and models as part of this pack.
What should I do if the pack won't load at all?
Verify the pack file isn't corrupted by re-downloading it, ensure it's placed in your resourcepacks folder, and check that your Minecraft version matches the pack's requirements. Restart the game after adding the pack.
Can I combine this pack with other texture packs?
Yes, but load this pack higher in your resource pack list than any conflicting packs so its textures take priority. If another pack also modifies chests, you may see visual conflicts.
