Frequently asked questions

How do I make villagers and illagers look human?
Install this pack alongside Fresh Animations and make sure this pack sits above the vanilla assets in your resource pack list. The pack retextures the mob models directly, so no config or commands are needed — the change applies as soon as the pack is active.
Do I need Fresh Animations installed for this to work?
Yes, this pack is built as an add-on for Fresh Animations, so the human-style models and their animations depend on it being enabled. Without Fresh Animations you'll get the retextures but the custom animations won't play correctly.
Why do my villagers still look like vanilla villagers?
This usually means the pack is below another villager or illager pack in the load order, or Fresh Animations is missing. Move this pack to the top of your resource pack list and confirm Fresh Animations is enabled.
How do I spawn human-looking illagers to test the pack?
Use the spawn eggs included in the pack — Evoker, Pillager, Vindicator, Ravager, Witch, and Iron Golem — or the vanilla spawn eggs, since the pack retextures the mobs themselves. Spawning in Creative with the matching egg is the fastest way to check each mob.
Why are my Totem of Undying and spawn egg textures not showing?
This is almost always a load-order or pack-conflict issue, since another pack may be overriding the item textures. Put this pack above conflicting packs and make sure Fresh Animations is active, then reload with F3+T.
Can I use this pack with other villager and illager resource packs?
You can, but only one pack can control each mob's textures, so whichever sits higher in the load order wins. If you want this pack's human look, place it above the other villager/illager packs.
Does this pack change villager trades or illager behavior?
No, it's a resource pack, so it only changes appearances and animations — trades, AI, and raid behavior stay vanilla. If you want gameplay changes you'd need a separate data pack or mod.
Will this pack hurt my FPS or performance?
Fresh Animations is the main performance cost, not this retexture, so expect similar performance to running Fresh Animations alone. If you lag, lower your entity render distance or reduce other animation-heavy packs.
Does this work on servers and with other players?
Resource packs are client-side, so each player needs the pack installed to see the human-style mobs — the server doesn't need it. Players without the pack will just see normal villagers and illagers.
Which mobs does this pack actually retexture?
It covers villagers, illagers, and related mobs like the Iron Golem, along with their spawn eggs and the Totem of Undying. If a mob isn't showing the new look, check for a conflicting pack above it in the load order.
