Description / Instructions
Just add to your game like any other texture pack and it will replace the "Courbet" and "Fighters" paintings. You can use the alternative frames by replacing the default one in the folder and naming them "courbet" or "fighters". You can also replace the other 4 vanilla landscape paintings, more information is in the included .txt file.
- Paintings++ mod support is built into V6 and later. Follow the instructions to install the mod, otherwise, this pack is drag and drop.
A Lil' Backstory
I had gotten sick of pulling up the Minecraft wiki to check how to brew a potion every time. So I went looking for in-game alternatives, there was a really simple one for Bedrock Edition but I was on Java. There was also the VanillaTweaks potion guide but I wanted an easier to understand, step-by-step instruction guide for making potions. I ended up making this a month-long side project and published it here. I update this fairly often.

Extra Notes
> You may use this pack in custom maps. I think there's a way to have the resource pack embedded in a map file, not completely sure.
> Clearly don't re-upload this pack as your own, edited or not (within custom maps are fine).
> If you use the alternative frames the sides of the paintings will still be wood, this is a limitation in Minecraft's engine and cannot be changed without changing ALL of the sides of Minecraft's paintings.
> Thanks to AbsolemJackdaw for making the Paintings++ mod
> TO OPTIFINE DEVELOPERS, I would love to be able to expand on this pack with randomized textures and maybe even texture overlays, but Optifine doesn't support what I think was described as "atlas textures for entities" or something like that.
Is this client side?
In reply to kittyfactory128:
Without the Paintings++ mod, it is client-side. I believe the server needs to run the mod for the mod to work.
I may have discovered a bug/issue. Do I report it here in the comments? In a nutshell, I'm using BrewingCanvas 0.6 with Paintings++ on Minecraft 1.16.5. I've followed the instructions, but Minecraft is crashing upon launch. Other Painting++-compatible resource packs work fine. Only yours does not. Here's a link to a log file, FWIW: https://paste.ee/p/oqMmq
the 4x2 canvas not showing for me in the paintings ++ mod, am I missing something?
In reply to mainmancam7:
What Minecraft version are you using and are you using Forge or Fabric? It's weird if the the 2x1 paintings are working, are you placing the paintings in a large enough area for the 4x2?
uebercool :-), thanks
Thank you for making this and having a shout out to my mod !!
Love what you made. the brewing recipes are hard to remember all !
I'll definitly be using this myself :D
1.18.1 please
In reply to bunnytehgamer:
Thanks, was busy with some mod support. I probably would have forgotten.
this is soo cool thx for making this
In reply to damys_world:
I appreciate your feedback!
whenever i try to use the resource pack it says "resource failed" or something like that
can someone help me
In reply to charlottet_12:
nvm ive figured it out
1.12.2?
In reply to molyplayz:
Anything before 1.14 has all the paintings inside one texture instead of a separate texture per painting. This makes the image size way to large for the resolution of my custom painting. I tried before but was unable, sorry.
Can i use it on the texture pack im making pls?
In reply to Extrem3P:
I'm not really interested in having it reuploaded as part of another texture pack right now.
Can you make it 4x2 canvas, 2x1 looks small. Thank you!
In reply to yingyoh:
Resourcepack has been updated to include a 4x2 painting with a correct resolution spruce frame
Now I can learn how to make potions. Thanks!!
