How do I turn this pack on?
Open Options, then Resource Packs, move High Resolution Vanilla PBR Resource Pack into the selected column, and click Done. The game reloads its textures, which can take a little longer than usual because the textures are 256x.
Why do my blocks look sharper but not shiny or 3D?
The PBR surface maps only react to light when a compatible shader is running, such as Kappa or Sparkle. Without a shader you still get the crisp 256x textures, but no reflections or surface depth.
Which shaders work with this pack?
Kappa and Sparkle are named as compatible. Enable the resource pack and the shader together, then look at metal blocks in sunlight to confirm the reflections are working.
What blocks does this pack actually change?
It covers Iron, Gold, Diamond, Emerald, Lapis, and Netherite blocks, all overworld wooden planks, standard Oak logs, every colored concrete block, sand, and the top face of grass blocks. Anything not on that list keeps its normal texture.
Why do my birch and spruce logs look normal when the planks are upgraded?
The pack updates all overworld planks, but only standard Oak logs are covered on the log side. Other log types keep their usual textures, so use Oak logs if you want matching high-resolution detail.
The sides of my grass blocks didn't change, is the pack broken?
No. The pack only updates the top face of grass blocks, so the sides stay as they normally are.
Does this pack change how vanilla blocks look or their colors?
No. It keeps the original colors and art patterns and only adds resolution and surface detail, so your existing builds keep their familiar look.
What's the best block to show off the metallic reflections?
The precious mineral blocks show it best, especially Iron, Gold, Diamond, Emerald, and Netherite blocks under a compatible shader in open sunlight. Placing them next to concrete or planks makes the contrast between shiny and matte surfaces obvious.
My game is lagging or slow to load with this pack, what can I do?
256x textures use a lot more graphics memory than default textures, especially with a shader on top. Lower your render distance or shader quality settings, and close other demanding programs if loading takes a long time.
Can I use this with another resource pack or on a server?
Yes. It is a client-side resource pack, so it works on any server without the server needing it. Place it above other packs in the selected list if you want its versions of the covered blocks to win, and the other packs will still handle everything else.
