Restore Vanilla GUI for Specific Screens While Keeping Gravel GUI Elsewhere
Create a Hybrid Resource Pack
You can blend Gravel GUI with vanilla textures by creating a layered resource pack setup:
1. Duplicate the Gravel GUI resource pack folder
2. Rename it to something like "Gravel GUI - Partial"
3. Delete texture folders for screens you want vanilla (e.g., remove gui/container for chest screens)
4. Place this modified pack *above* Gravel GUI in your resource pack list
5. Vanilla textures will show through for deleted folders
Selective Texture Replacement
For finer control:
1. Identify which texture files control specific screens (e.g., container/generic_54.png for chests)
2. In your modified pack, keep only those files you want to replace
3. Delete files for screens you prefer vanilla
4. Test each screen type after changes
Organize by Screen Type
Common screens to selectively restore:
- Crafting tables – check
container/crafting_table.png - Furnaces – look for
container/furnace.png - Chests – find
container/generic_54.png - Pause menu – locate
pause_menu.png
Testing
After setup, visit each screen type to confirm which use Gravel GUI and which remain vanilla. Adjust your pack's file structure as needed.
