Totem Cross Resource Pack FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I know if the Totem Cross texture is actually working?
Load into a world and hold a Totem of Undying in your hand—you should see a cross shape instead of the default totem model. If you still see the original totem, check that the resource pack is enabled and ranked above any conflicting packs in your resource pack list.
Will I hear a different sound when the totem saves me from death?
Yes, the mod replaces the totem activation sound with a new one that matches the cross aesthetic. Make sure your game volume is turned up and sound is enabled in your settings to hear the change.
Does this work in multiplayer servers?
Yes, resource packs are client-side only, so you can use Totem Cross on any server without needing permission or affecting other players. Other players will see the default totem unless they also have the pack installed.
Can I use this with other resource packs at the same time?
Yes, but pack order matters—place Totem Cross above any other packs that modify totems in your resource pack list so it takes priority. If you're using a large total conversion pack, it may override Totem Cross depending on how it's configured.
Does the totem still work the same way mechanically?
Completely—this is purely a visual and audio change. The totem still activates at the same health threshold and restores you to full health with the same effects.
What if the cross texture looks blurry or pixelated?
Check your texture filtering settings in Video Settings—try toggling Mipmap Levels or setting Texture Filtering to Linear. If you're using a high-resolution texture pack alongside this, you may need to adjust your resource pack resolution settings.
Will this affect my FPS or performance?
No, resource packs have negligible performance impact since they only change visuals and sounds, not game logic. You should see no difference in frame rate.
Can I see the cross texture in the inventory or crafting menu?
Yes, the cross appears whenever you view the Totem of Undying in your inventory, hotbar, or crafting interface. It's not just visible when holding it in your hand.
What Minecraft versions does this work with?
Check the mod's download page for the specific versions it supports—resource packs are typically compatible with multiple versions, but compatibility depends on how the pack was built.
If I disable the pack, will my totem go back to normal?
Yes, simply uncheck or remove Totem Cross from your resource pack list and reload your world. The default totem texture and sound will return immediately.
