Today is the day BetterRTX 1.3 is releasing, and with it finally comes the massive remaster update to Defined PBR! The journey of remaking almost every texture in the resource pack was definitely a long one, but the quality of PBR textures in the pack is higher than ever before!
Thank you all for supporting this project and its ongoing development! Here's a list of notable changes from the previous version:
PBR Textures
- Completely remastered all PBR textures in the resource pack.
- Added PBR textures for 1.21 blocks, and the Garden Awakens blocks.
- Implemented fixes for Frogspawn and Copper Grates incorrectly behaving like Glass.
- Adjusted door textures to account for BetterRTX door brightness fix.
Volumetric Fog
- Added unique fog configurations for most biomes in the game.
- Redesigned old fog configurations for the new BetterRTX update.
- Added a custom fog configuration for The End with BetterRTX.
Entities
- Implemented the new Magma Cube texture format.
- Fixed rendering issues with Wolves after the Armoured Paws update.
- Fixed rendering of The Creaking's various geometry bones.
UI
- Updated the RTX render distance error to only appear at 24 chunks, and warn against potential chunk rendering issues.
- Reimplemented the Vsync dropdown into video settings.
I would have attached screenshots of the new textures, but there really are just too many of them to account for! Instead, I'll be attaching a recreation of the gamescom 2019 Minecraft RTX demo world for you to see the new changes in! Please enjoy the new update, and be sure to install the new BetterRTX update as well. A lot of great features and fixes have been added, which will all be listed in the Minecraft RTX discord.
Additionally, I opted to release the update as soon as it was ready with BetterRTX. You can expect them to be published here fairly soon!
