What is Smoofy's Books?
It's a resource pack which changes all enchanted book textures to be more clear in their function.
• Each book gets it's own designated color for the type of equipment it can be applied to.
• Most books get a resource-themed indicator for their level.
• Some books also layer textures when combined in an anvil.
But why?
• Sorting chests takes less than 2-3 millennia.
• You can immediately tell what enchantment a librarian villager is selling.
• It helps immensely when looking through chests in a dungeon, mineshaft, library, etc.
• What's the difference between impaling IV and piercing IV? The book knows.
Any Dependencies?
Nope. Just play at or above 1.21.5, put it in the resource pack folder, and play!
Feel free to use the pack for personal use, in a modpack, in a youtube video, or on twitch.
You can't do anything else with the pack unless you ask Smoofy98 on discord though.
