More than anything Minecraft has always been known for the creative works of its community. From a replica of a world monument to the construction of an entire city, players dedicate hours to the creation of better, more interesting structures. Players have even taken to mixing Minecraft with inspiration from other games, like the Minecraft player who created an Among Us map in the game. For Reddit user StitchYYT, that dedication has lasted more than a year already, as he attempts to incorporate the textures of Terraria into the game.
Last year, StitchYYT announced that he was in the process of creating a Terraria resource pack for Minecraft, which was received with an overall positive response in Reddit. The post included a picture of two types of areas that any Terraria fan would instantly recognize: the Crimson, an evil biome that appears in the first stages of the game; and the Hallow, a biome that is unlocked after defeating a boss known as the Wall of Flesh, which occupies the spaces previously inhabited by the aforementioned area. Despite not including more pictures, Redditors with an interest in both games were excited for any updates on its progress.
Last night, StitchYYT delivered. The update includes a series of pictures depicting the changes done to the base game. Practically every type of potion that a Terraria player has ever used in the game appears in the inventory (the Wormhole potion, which allows the player to teleport to a friend’s location, can be seen on the top bracket), as well as a Shroomite armor. Further pictures depict the event known as the Sun Eclipse, which is, as the name implies, a solar eclipse during which enemies spawn at a higher rate; and some other underground biomes. StitchYYT said that the Enderdragon has been retextured to look like the Eye of Cthulhu, which is one of the most well-known enemies of Terraria, and one that every player must face to advance in the story.
One issue with this mod, however, is that it may require the player to have OptiFine, an optimization mod that should run the game at higher resolutions without affecting its speed. Unfortunately, OptiFine has been known to cause issues in PC performance. StitchYYT stated that modeling the Enderdragon required OptiFine, so players without the mod may not be able to get the full experience of the mod.
The creator has stated that this is still a work in progress, though it can already be downloaded and used in Minecraft. In a response to a question in the Reddit thread, StitchYYT stated that it will take “a few years” to finish the whole pack. Nevertheless, the work done so far already presents a pretty similar appearance to Terraria, and fans of both games should definitely give it a try.
