Turn On the AE2 Backport Textures and Confirm They Loaded

This pack only changes how Applied Energistics 2 looks. It does not change any recipes or mechanics. Once it is active, your ME network should immediately look different.

Activate the pack

1. If the pack is not already there, place its file in your resourcepacks folder. You can open that folder from the in-game Resource Packs screen.

2. From the main menu or pause menu, open Options → Resource Packs.

3. Find the Applied Energistics2 Textures Backport pack in the Available list. Click its arrow to move it into the Selected list.

Check that it is working

Load a world that has an existing AE2 setup, or build a small test network. Then look for these changes:

Blocks: Your cables, storage drives and tech machines should show the refreshed modern graphics.
Connected parts: Cables, buses and other network parts should share one consistent style where they join.
Item icons: Storage cells, processor chips, upgrade cards and tools should show updated sprites in your inventory.
Screens: ME terminals, crafting units and workbenches should show redesigned interface backgrounds.

If any of these still look the same as before, another pack is probably overriding them. Go back to the Resource Packs screen and move this pack higher in the Selected list.
