Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

I don't know my version or loader

Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.

No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

Description

This is a highly customizable texture pack for Minecraft versions 1.21.2 and upwards. As you can see from the images above, it renders your game as if it was drawn on a piece of paper. This is done in Vanilla Minecraft, which means you don't need to install any mod or client in order for it to work. All you need to do is turn on the texture pack.

There are multiple different visual effects you can achieve by editting the settings of the texture pack. You can achieve the default paper look, or you could also go to the other end of things and make your game look like a cartoon. There are instructions below on how to configure the texture pack.

How to Use

Download and install the latest version of the pack, then apply it.
Make sure your graphics setting is set to fabulous, or it won't turn on.
To configure the pack, open the texture pack and go to assets/minecraft/shaders/include then open the config.glsl file. Then, just edit any of the values (there will be instructions in the file)
