Frequently asked questions

How do I enable Big Water Mod?
The mod activates automatically once installed—you'll see stretched fluid textures across your water and lava immediately. If textures still look repetitive, check that a resource pack is selected in your settings menu.
What's the difference between vanilla rekindled and stylized packs?
Vanilla stretches the default Minecraft fluid textures, Rekindled applies fire-themed textures to both water and lava, and Stylized provides cleaner, more minimalist liquid visuals. All three spread textures across 4×4 block grids to break up repetition.
Can I use Big Water Mod with shaders?
Yes, the mod works with shader packs and supports animated normal maps for shaders that read normal and specular map data. Make sure your shader pack is compatible with custom resource packs.
How do I change texture scale?
Open the mod settings menu and adjust the texture scale slider directly—you don't need a separate resource pack to customize this. Changes apply immediately to your world.
