Java Aspects

Java Aspects bridges the gap between Bedrock and Java Edition. It changes water colors, explosion particles, block sounds, mob animations, and many other things. Now, you can bring the clean visuals of Java Edition into the world of Mineraft Bedrock.

Check out Console Aspects for the Legacy Console Edition style on Bedrock.

Pack Options

Explore the different ways to use Java Aspects.

Default Textures

Matches the latest update for Java Edition. Modern block, item, and entity textures.

Programmer Art (Classic Textures)

The original look of Minecraft. You must apply the Minecraft Classic Texture Pack from the Marketplace below Java Aspects for the subpack to work correctly. This mode does not recreate bugs from Programmer Art, such as green Villager hats.

Compatibility Mode

Allows another resource pack to overwrite textures while keeping Java sounds, animations, and language changes intact. Apply the other pack above Java Aspects.

(Note: City Texture Pack not included!)
