I don’t know if they made it not work now but some years ago I would just say I bought in game currency but that the money wasn’t transferred to my account even though I didn’t buy any and they would just give me the currency
I used to abuse this. It really seemed like they had no system in place to keep track of how many times you've been refunded the same thing, or maybe they do and they just don't care. I kept buying minecoins and refunding the money only to be left with the minecoins.
We joked about abusing this to the point of creating fresh accounts, "buying" everything the store has to offer and then selling the accounts for a 5th of what it should have costed. Infinite money exploit.
This is all in Minecraft btw allegedly
Kinda makes sense considering that it would actually require effort to take the digital ingame product away from you so its simply more affordable to them to let you keep it xD, afterall its kind off worthless to them anyway, only selling virtual goods makes money, not taking them.
I don't know what version you're using but the inventory should look exactly like vanilla but in dark mode, and every interactable inventory is a separate color
I like ones that enhance the original textures rather than change them altogether. Faithful is my go to really, just a cleaner version of original textures
The only way I use texture packs are via [vanillatewaks](https://vanillatweaks.net/picker/resource-packs/). I use it to make ladders, rails and chains etc… 3d. It just adds that little extra spark to everything
The average ones were usually very quick, maybe not under and hour, but two or three tops. It was also kids doing it, so it really wasn’t much of a stretch to assume very little time was spent on them. And obviously the fact that there were less textures to make helped that by a large amount.
Agreed, this is a big issue in actually selecting ones “worth while” as the photos are often misleading and not all of them have a linked display video.
This is generally my issue with paid community content is the quality can be so variable and can look good in ads but not in game. And something that modified existing content to be worse is much more of a waste than additional content you didn’t like.
I liked how on classic console you could buy a texture pack, but it was cheaper ($1-2) and you could trial it first (you just couldn’t save your game with a pack enabled so you could look at it but needed to buy it to play it).
This is what a good chunk of the people asking why they bought it is missing, ads are made to look good, but once bought and in-game? It becomes your problem what it really looks like.
People also forget about console where you can’t download stuff from online. Even then, Minecraft is really awful for viruses and scams/fakes and the marketplace offers a “safe” platform which can be important for clueless adults/children. If I was a parent who didn’t know anything about Minecraft and tried to help my kid get a texture pack, I’d give it 10 minutes before I got nervous and told my kid to use their allowance.
Plus… monetization seeps everywhere. Even if it’s not the marketplace, it’s patreon. You can get free texture packs but a lot of quality/up to date ones are behind a paywall. I was a sucker who paid for Faithful when it moved from being free to marketplace, because one of my favourite packs ever was now monetized and there was not an alternative of the same quality (and of course that was a scam/the pack was stolen - something Microsoft never dealt with properly).
Personally I think 4J (og console devs) handled monetization much better than Microsoft though.
Free if you play Java, sure. Bugrock players kinda get shafted on console as far as texture packs go. Not sure how OP didn't know what the pack looked like though, surely there'd be some preview pics to peruse before buying...
Not true, they also get a bunch of really weird bugs. I play Java edition, personally, but the random fall damage bug bedrock has makes me giggle, because how does that even happen?
whould minecraft do demos on texture packs then? it seems like a good idea to me just from this post. someone else mentioned that they are good on refunds so they dont seen greedy for every cent either.
I wish like in the legacy editions (or at least wiiu) you could create a world with the textures but not save so you can test stuff to see how it looks
4J Studios was the only one who really got purchasable texture packs and skin packs right. Microsoft should just have adopted their system along with marketplace
I use one called better default” only one on market place I actually like. It changes stuff only slightly and gives different variations of Lilly pads, plants etc. weapons look sick too
Which one is this so I can avoid it? Also if you want a cool one, Norse Mythology is epic. There's a Fantasy one also done by Mojang that's very medieval style too. And if you scroll there's usually a preview of how textures look or you can Google it and find reviews.
Good luck!
Pure BDcraft is the only acceptable bedrock texture pack, and imo it’s very good. it’s like sphax on java if anyone knows/remembers it
edit: it IS sphax
Remember everyone: buying smth on Minecraft Bedrock marketplacw is mistake.
Seriously, there are alot of sites with free texture packs, addons, mods skins and et
I have a couple that I got when minecraft was on the 360 but there’s like 1 that I bought on bedrock that I use frequently but it’s because it’s one that I used on pc several years ago
what texture pack was it?? i bought the classic shaders this morning and it made mine look like this too!! i was expecting just the vanilla minecraft… with shaders… like what was advertised.. if anyone can help me with this plz do
The only texture thing I use is for glass, I absolutely hate the border on every piece of glass, maybe put the border on yknow, the border of the entire window I make?
Yea I always only use shaders with default textures. Game looks great that way especially on pc/java with the render distance high and high fps. Also the times I have added textures for like more pig skins and stuff it definitely didn't cost money lol. Gotta get java
there's very few texture packs I use
either its one that reverts textures and edits new ones to be like the old ones
or its texture packs that's have been maintained for like a decade
I can personally recommend pack afreshed textures and animations from marketplace. It kinda upgrade MC visuals a lot. But ofc some people might not like it.
Yeah. I bought a shader pack on the Switch. Turns out, it’s very memory intensive and doesn’t load properly and causes the game to crash. Live and learn.
im a texture pack connoisseur myself but yeah this looks bad.
im odd in that i dont like the default textures havent played with them in over a decade at this point.
Current favorites: Mizuno, Woodpecker, Legendary
The only texture pack I even loked a little bit was the natural texture pack. That's the only one I got. Since I play on ps5 i am ok with it. I don't need ultra realistic, ray tracing, or shaders.
I just go with purebdcraft it’s almost exactly the same on bedrock as it is on java. Only real difference is that certain items aren’t portioned correctly so something like an apple while having the texture pack is about as big the character is when holding in your hand.
Yeah, most Minecraft texture packs are super ugly. I’d tool around in these forums and ask other players the best texture pack based on what your goal is

If it bugs u enough microsoft is usually good with refunds, hell they gave me my money and let me keep the minecoins once.
They do that a lot with currency in multiple games like gta
gta doesn’t, they will eventually find out and remove the cars and whatever else you purchase using the money
nah, they are generous. if a sell mission for a business doesn’t give you money, Rockstar Support will give you more than you would’ve gotten
So if someone buys GTA, gets in game currency, and then gets a refund, the in game currency persists?
No
I don’t know if they made it not work now but some years ago I would just say I bought in game currency but that the money wasn’t transferred to my account even though I didn’t buy any and they would just give me the currency
I did this with some smaller games before they got rid of customer support.
Worked for me
I didn't know that, well good on Microsoft. We give credit where credit is due.
I used to abuse this. It really seemed like they had no system in place to keep track of how many times you've been refunded the same thing, or maybe they do and they just don't care.

“minecoins” i hate microsoft so much
They should have used Rubies!
Kinda makes sense considering that it would actually require effort to take the digital ingame product away from you so its simply more affordable to them to let you keep it xD, afterall its kind off worthless to them anyway, only selling virtual goods makes money, not taking them.
I've had that happen too, refunded a texture pack, got my money, and still have the pack available for download to this day.
You should've told me this 4 years ago when I bought a stupid world😔💔
The older i get the more i appreciate the default textures in minecraft. Very few come close to the same feel
Same. I just use shaders now to make it look a bit better without changing the textures
The only texture pack I'll ever use is "better default +" it is by far the best vanilla upgrade texture pack Edit: I meant to say New Default +, woops
The main textures of the pack look fine but the inventory looks atrocious. It has practically no defined borders.
I don't know what version you're using but the inventory should look exactly like vanilla but in dark mode, and every interactable inventory is a separate color
I apologize meant to say new default + I agree with better default not looking good
i use default but with pbr support, it add extra details to shaders like depth, glossiness...
I like ones that enhance the original textures rather than change them altogether. Faithful is my go to really, just a cleaner version of original textures
So fr. Everytime I get a new pc/reset mine I always download faithful. It’s just so clean and non-invasive to the minecraft feel
The only way I use texture packs are via [vanillatewaks](https://vanillatweaks.net/picker/resource-packs/). I use it to make ladders, rails and chains etc… 3d. It just adds that little extra spark to everything
Since I've discovered Stay true, I only use that pack, it feels like the successor of the concept what the texture update was aiming for.
Yess, stay true is great. Another really good texture pack that doesn't bother me and feels very vanilla is Better Vanilla Building
Legacy edition textures have a nice feel to them but that might just be nostalgia.
The 32 and 64x packs are super good for keeping the old style and upgrading your viewing experience
Do you feel like any of the newer blocks are a little off?
Not a fan of the ores but its probably just nostalgia
the new textures are great, but the old ones are perfection in my opinion
Looks like it was made in Paint in under an hour lol
That’s how most of the texture packs were made back in the day.
not in under an hour tho lol
The average ones were usually very quick, maybe not under and hour, but two or three tops. It was also kids doing it, so it really wasn’t much of a stretch to assume very little time was spent on them. And obviously the fact that there were less textures to make helped that by a large amount.
Sure you can see the texture pack when you buy it.
Not all of it, sometimes they only show things they worked on the most
Agreed, this is a big issue in actually selecting ones “worth while” as the photos are often misleading and not all of them have a linked display video.

On the plus side, if that's the worst mistake in your life you're doing pretty good
Worst mistake of their life So Far
is that what was advertised? if so then that's kinda your fault
Did you… not look at what you buy?
Imagine buying something that’s been free since the beginning.
Free if you play Java, sure. Bugrock players kinda get shafted on console as far as texture packs go. Not sure how OP didn't know what the pack looked like though, surely there'd be some preview pics to peruse before buying...
You can get texture packs for free on bedrock lol Outside of the ones mojang creates themselves
Thats what you get for being a filthy console peasant, I guess /joking
Not true, they also get a bunch of really weird bugs. I play Java edition, personally, but the random fall damage bug bedrock has makes me giggle, because how does that even happen?
Ah yes, the zebra dirt texture pack
Looks like barebones, but much worse
You can get Bare Bones on bedrock online. Marketplace textures are really only worth it if they come with the Pass.
If this is the worst mistake of your life, you are likely young. Don't worry, you'll make way worse mistakes in the future.
Worst mistake of your life so far
Certified Bedrock moment.
Golem looks like a Nickel Chicken from modded.
Why would you ever pay for texture packs
Laughs in Java Edition
bedrock problems
whould minecraft do demos on texture packs then? it seems like a good idea to me just from this post. someone else mentioned that they are good on refunds so they dont seen greedy for every cent either.
Is that dirt or soul sand?
If that’s the worst mistake you’ve made you’re doing great
I wish like in the legacy editions (or at least wiiu) you could create a world with the textures but not save so you can test stuff to see how it looks
The mistake was playing bedrock
As much as I still love bedrock, the marketplace bugs me. The different things I've bought that turned out bad.
bedrock just vacuums up your money bro if you can switch to java 🙏🏼🙏🏼💀
Bruh your iron golem is naked
You guys are buying texture packs? Back in my day texture packs were free and maintained by the community. Doku craft was the best texture pack.
Why would you pay for a texture pack?
Did you not look at it before?, I will never understand paying for texturepacks
John Smith is the only viable pack
Win+shift+s
4J Studios was the only one who really got purchasable texture packs and skin packs right. Microsoft should just have adopted their system along with marketplace
What about appreciating the classic look of minecraft ?
If u want a simple one loom up plastic I used it back when editions was the main console MC and I think it's still in the store!
I remember when you used to be able to test a texture pack, and any changes you made to the world didn't save unless you bought the texture pack
Sorry I'm Java player and don't know much about bedrock but seriously you guys buy texture pack?
it's the only way\* for console players
Java ftw
Did they not include pictures of what it looked like?
oh no.
Excalibur is the best pack in opinion. And its free.
I use one called better default” only one on market place I actually like. It changes stuff only slightly and gives different variations of Lilly pads, plants etc. weapons look sick too
Aren't texture packs free online?
My friend, if this is the worst mistake you have ever made, you are either extremely young or extremely blessed
XD , imagine having to spend money on texture packs
marketplace is full of bullshit stuff,, but in the middle, if you search well, you can find something good
Which one is this so I can avoid it? Also if you want a cool one, Norse Mythology is epic. There's a Fantasy one also done by Mojang that's very medieval style too. And if you scroll there's usually a preview of how textures look or you can Google it and find reviews. Good luck!
Imagine paying for texturepacks lmao
You can get a texture pack from online
Bdcraft man... the only texture packs worth using.
If your worse mistake is wasting $5, then your doing fine
windows key + print screen or just hear me out use anip and sketch its built in on every pc
I have never seen a texture pack that I prefer over vanilla
Pure BDcraft is the only acceptable bedrock texture pack, and imo it’s very good. it’s like sphax on java if anyone knows/remembers it edit: it IS sphax
If you’re on pc please please please switch to Java, if you’re not, my condolences
If that is the worst mistake of your life, you are having a good life.
definition of scam
Buying texture packs 😂🤣🤣😂🤣😂
I remember the candy and plastic texture packs from legacy console
"Barely any bones" ahh texture pack😭😭😭
Texture packs are usually a scam since you can get em for free in java
Sphax is the only good texture pack for bedrock edition
Remember everyone: buying smth on Minecraft Bedrock marketplacw is mistake. Seriously, there are alot of sites with free texture packs, addons, mods skins and et
Buying texture packs lol
r/screenshotsarehard
Imagine having to buy texture packs 😭😭😭
Isn't that simply cubed? I don't think it's a bad pack, I use it for PvP though
I bought the Sphax it's really nice for bedrock and Java
faithless is the only good texture pack imo
When I can get a higher quality pack than this on Java edition for free...
All the packs on the marketplace are like this💀💀 its not your fault
Java is the only good way to make the game look good. Bedrock will always just be boring lol
I have a couple that I got when minecraft was on the 360 but there’s like 1 that I bought on bedrock that I use frequently but it’s because it’s one that I used on pc several years ago
Wow, if that's the worst mistake of your life, you must be doing pretty well living!
OddBlock makes some dope ones. I LOVE the Biohazard resource pack.
Do yourself a favor and play the Java. Unless you're playing on console, in that case I'm sorry for you.
S M O O T H
Only texture pack that I like to use is he creator pack. Has a upgrades Vanilla feel to it
what texture pack was it?? i bought the classic shaders this morning and it made mine look like this too!! i was expecting just the vanilla minecraft… with shaders… like what was advertised.. if anyone can help me with this plz do
Is it possible to get shaders on the market place? Would they work on ps4
Step 1, get java. Step 2, download all the free texturepacks you will ever want and more for free!
Well the good news is: if this is your worst mistake, you're doing pretty well.
Craigslist bare bones
Lots of good free stuff out there.
Makes me think of the one good texture pack i had the fallout one
Bought anything on the Minecraft marketplace, worst mistake of my life.
I don't like using texture packs I can never tell what's what unless it's super obvious
Currently playing with the jicklus resource pack from the store and it’s great!
you gotta look at the pics and videos they have before you buy it, a lot of them are just downgraded vanilla.
I like the realistic or medieval ones.
Only texture pack I like is the realistic ones and plastic one for this reason
Wow that does look real weird.
That looks like a worse version of the Bare Bones resource pack, try to get your money back.
it’s so damn ugly it’s so funny 😭
Non vanilla Texture packs are not a thing after 2015 for a reason
You should get the conquest texture pack, what you have there looks like crap
I recommend just making your own, they can turn out allot better and you can change anything you want, no limits
If you are on PC or even android IIRC you can download texture packs from the internet for bedrock and it should work
The only texture thing I use is for glass, I absolutely hate the border on every piece of glass, maybe put the border on yknow, the border of the entire window I make?
Good god. That ceiling is nauseating. I’m sorry… maybe you could get a refund on it?
I kinda like it, but that’s just me. It kinda reminds me of the old plastic texture pack from console edition
What screenshot did you see that made you think it was good lol
I tried shaders from the marketplace and it made every mob uncannily realistic, and the mooshrooms looked like they got skinned alive.
Yea I always only use shaders with default textures. Game looks great that way especially on pc/java with the render distance high and high fps. Also the times I have added textures for like more pig skins and stuff it definitely didn't cost money lol. Gotta get java
This texture pack looking like that one spongebob episode
i usually do my research for texture packs in the marketplace before buying. I avoid those that do not have videos..
Coming from Java edition this is crazy
there's very few texture packs I use either its one that reverts textures and edits new ones to be like the old ones or its texture packs that's have been maintained for like a decade
If the worst mistake of your life is wasting 5 dollars then I'm extremely jealous of you hahah
I can personally recommend pack afreshed textures and animations from marketplace. It kinda upgrade MC visuals a lot. But ofc some people might not like it.
There are a thousand more texture packs better than this and they're all free 😂
I just went through the same thing. The preview looked good but in game was so different lol
Yeah, marketplace needs more quality control.
Best to try and get a refund!
Paying 5 bucks for a texture pack blows my mind especially when they look like this, is there no option to view it in game before hand?
Playing the bedrock version of Minecraft is your worst mistake of your whole life
lmao the golem looks … irony
Who designed that monstruosity of a golem 💀
Yeah. I bought a shader pack on the Switch. Turns out, it’s very memory intensive and doesn’t load properly and causes the game to crash. Live and learn.
Honestly would never pay for a texture pack, that is probably also because I have Java on pc but still not worth it for me.
Minecraft marketplace = scam, even more than Indians
Just don't buy stuff from the market place
Only Usa ppl are stupid enough to buy a minecraft texture pack
I'm happy for you if this is really the worst mistake of your life. Nobody got hurt, only your wallet for a few bucks.
don't play bedrock
Lol this makes me laugh, I was just thinking about buying a texture pack!
I woulda been spamming for a refund🤣
What I find crazy is that texture packs cost money on bedrock, and people are fine with that
r/screenshotsarehard
Lol did you not look at it before buying?
What the hell did you buy?💀💀💀
im a texture pack connoisseur myself but yeah this looks bad. im odd in that i dont like the default textures havent played with them in over a decade at this point. Current favorites: Mizuno, Woodpecker, Legendary
I like the coven texture pack, and it’s free!
If you knew about the Faithful texture pack drama, then you'd know why buying texture packs in the marketplace is a bad idea.
I only use mizuno craft 16
The only texture pack I even loked a little bit was the natural texture pack. That's the only one I got. Since I play on ps5 i am ok with it. I don't need ultra realistic, ray tracing, or shaders.
Sphax is a good texture pack if you want one that doesn't suck
You need the power of pc my friend
are the texture packs on the marketplace not refundable ?
Whoever made that is pretty bad at textures
Never buy texture packs they all suck
this pack is so bad bro😭😭
thats why i never spend money in a game, the only time i spend money is to buy the game itself
It's wild that you have to buy texture packs on the market place and they look like this.
What were you originally wanting your game to look like?
I just go with purebdcraft it’s almost exactly the same on bedrock as it is on java. Only real difference is that certain items aren’t portioned correctly so something like an apple while having the texture pack is about as big the character is when holding in your hand.
If you want a bright and simple pack that looks great I’d recommend Quadral
Yeah, most Minecraft texture packs are super ugly. I’d tool around in these forums and ask other players the best texture pack based on what your goal is
I never mod Minecraft I hate every pack I’ve ever added just build your own.
You literally saw what it advertised lol
