Do you like the style of Minecraft in a lower resolution like 8x8 but also want to use your favorite resource packs? Then this pack might be something for you! It uses shaders to apply a downscaling filter on top of whatever resource pack you are using, whether thats a custom one or the vanilla textures.
The pack can downscale from any source resolution to any downscaled resolution. Even non power of two values like 12 pixels per block work.
Because the downscaling is automatic and not manually created, there might be some issues with smaller details since the shader doesn't know which pixel is an important detail and what is just a normal part of the texture.
