Why does my GUI look different after installing this pack?
The Starry GUI and Hotbar Resource Pack replaces your default inventory, menu, and hotbar textures with purple-themed versions decorated with stars. This is the intended effect—if you want to revert to the original appearance, you can disable the pack in your resource pack settings or follow the guide to restore the default GUI.
Can I use this pack with other resource packs at the same time?
Yes, but resource pack order matters. Place the Starry pack higher in your resource pack list if you want its GUI changes to take priority, or lower if you want another pack's GUIs to show instead. See the guide on making the Starry GUI work with other packs for detailed instructions.
How do I change the purple color to something else?
You can customize the color scheme by editing the texture files in the pack. The guide on customizing the color scheme walks you through which files to modify and how to apply your changes.
The stars are too distracting—can I remove them or make them less visible?
Yes, you can adjust star density through the pack's settings. Refer to the guide on adjusting hotbar visibility and star density to reduce or eliminate the stars from your GUI.
Does this pack work in multiplayer servers?
Yes, resource packs are client-side only, so you can use this pack on any server without affecting other players or violating server rules.
My menus look broken or glitchy after installing this—what do I do?
Try disabling conflicting packs, ensuring the Starry pack is in the correct load order, or following the guide to restore the default GUI. If issues persist, try reinstalling the pack.
Will this pack affect my game performance or FPS?
No, this pack only changes textures and has no impact on performance since it doesn't add new blocks, items, or mechanics.
Can I see what the hotbar looks like before installing?
Yes, check the screenshots section on the wiki to preview how the Starry pack changes your hotbar and inventory appearance.
Does this pack work with mods that add new GUIs?
The Starry pack only reskins vanilla Minecraft GUIs, so mod-added interfaces will keep their original appearance unless the mod author specifically supports this pack.
How do I make the hotbar less or more transparent?
You can adjust hotbar visibility by editing the pack's texture files or through the settings covered in the guide on adjusting hotbar visibility and star density.
What does the Starry GUI and Hotbar pack change?
It replaces the default interface textures with a starry night-sky theme, restyling all inventories, menus and your hotbar in shades of purple with little stars sprinkled in. It doesn't change anything besides the GUIs.
