Layer Programmer Art DX on Top of the Built-in Programmer Art Pack

Programmer Art DX is built to sit over Minecraft's built-in Programmer Art option. That option covers the older blocks and items. This pack fills in the newer things, such as modern ores, Nether blocks and inventory icons, so the whole game shares one retro style.

Enabling both packs

1. From the title screen or the pause menu, open Options > Resource Packs.

2. In the Available list on the left, find Programmer Art. Click its arrow to move it to the Selected list on the right.

3. Find Programmer Art DX in the Available list and move it to the Selected list too.

4.

Getting the order right

In the Selected list, packs higher up override packs below them. Programmer Art DX must be above Programmer Art. Use the small up and down arrows on each entry to arrange them like this, from top to bottom:

  • Programmer Art DX
  • Programmer Art
  • Default (always at the bottom)

If the order is reversed, built-in Programmer Art can cover parts of the DX pack. Blocks may then look half classic and half modern.

Quick check

Load a world and look at a newer block, such as deepslate or an ore. It should match the flat, bright classic style instead of the modern default look. If it doesn't, go back to the Resource Packs screen and confirm both packs are selected and in the order above.
