Resource packs, texture packs, and what changed.
Resource packs change how Minecraft looks and sounds: textures, models, animations, UI, and audio. 'Texture pack' is the legacy name from the era before 1.6; modern packs can reshape mob models and animations too, which is why the old term undersells them.
Packs also stack. Load Fresh Animations over Faithful with a sky pack on top, ordered in the resource pack screen; entries higher in the list win any conflicts.
Resolution and pack format, briefly.
16x is vanilla's native resolution. 32x doubles the detail while keeping the style; 128x and up lean photoreal and start costing real GPU memory. Higher numbers are not automatically better, especially on laptops.
Each quarterly drop bumps the game's pack format number, so packs sometimes warn they were 'made for an older version'. Most still work fine; the warning usually just means newly added blocks keep their vanilla look until the pack updates.
Resource pack questions.
What is the difference between a texture pack and a resource pack?
They are the same thing today. Texture packs were the original format, replaced by resource packs in 2013 when packs gained the ability to change sounds, models, and more. People still search for texture packs, but every modern download is a resource pack.
Do Java resource packs work on Bedrock?
No. Bedrock uses its own pack format (.mcpack) distributed through the Marketplace and free community sites. A Java pack only reaches Bedrock when its creator ports it.
What resolution should I pick?
32x is the sweet spot for most players: visibly sharper than vanilla, negligible performance cost. Go 16x for guaranteed smoothness on weak hardware, and 128x or higher only when you have GPU memory to spare.
Do resource packs affect performance?
Only really at high resolutions. A 16x or 32x pack performs like vanilla. 256x and beyond need real video memory, and animated or shader-integrated packs add a little more load.
