Preparing an HD Image for the Main Menu

The Custom Background HD Resource Pack supports HD images, allowing you to use high-quality artwork or game captures for your main interface.

Image Requirements and Naming

Before adding an image to the pack, check that your file matches the required format:

  • File Type: The image must be a standard .png file. If you have an image in another format, convert it to PNG first.
  • File Name: The pack specifically searches for the title overlay file. Rename your image file to exactly panorama_overlay.png. Capitalization or spelling mistakes will prevent the game from recognizing your custom background.
  • Resolution: You can use standard or HD resolution pictures without breaking functionality, as the pack is built to handle high-definition textures.

Placing the File in the Archive

Once your image is ready and named panorama_overlay.png, open Custom Background HD.zip. Follow the internal path:

assets > minecraft > textures > gui > title > background

Drop your image here to overwrite the pre-existing file. The pack will now load this picture whenever the main menu initializes.
