Requirements
Recommendations
- Entity Culling is recommended for performance.
- 3D Lanterns & Torches Resource packs are recommended for immersion, Extended illumina is the only tested pack that works, but it is out-dated. ( A dedicated Resource Pack is currently under-review. It's been two weeks since it was submitted. )
Additions & Misc.
- Played Express is a Minecraft Resource Pack that adds Player face expression animations which work with almost every eye type, with Detailed Player animations in Alpha.
- Played Express uses unused spaces in the vanilla Minecraft Player texture.
- When in a server, Players who do not have a special skin for this pack will be seen as normal and vice-versa. But, there is a probability that they will have a special skin for a different expression pack, and it will interfere.
Dependencies
- Played Express requires
&
to be able to change the Player's model and animations. And will work with almost every Minecraft version that they are on.
Example Skins & Models
- Played Express provides the player model, and player_slim model with example Player skins for skin-making. These are in the Supplementary Resources of each version.
- For Player models on version 1.1.4-al and above, open the "blockbench" folder.
- For example Player skins on version 1.1.4-al and above, open the "skins" folder.
