The Grimdark Battlepack (formerly "Kal's Arms & Armor") is a modern adaptation of the traditional Minecraft textures. I've drawn inspiration from other dark fantasy worlds to provide textures with greater detail that will be more fitting in your medieval, fantasy, and steampunk Minecraft worlds. What originally began as just an armor and weapons pack has been expanded to include decorative blocks, sun and moon textures, a custom skybox, and in the most recent update, custom colormaps for certain biomes to provide spring and autumn vibes. These additions still belong to the more decorative side of Minecraft, allowing you to pair this pack with a block pack of your choosing or just stick with the vanilla block textures for building.
In my recent updates I've also added my variant armor textures as subpacks, now with a single download you can customize your look by choosing between Light, Medium, Heavy, Royal and Hidden armor looks.
I've also created a companion behavior pack that adds support for some of my custom swords and tools. You can now craft Katanas, Daggers, Cutlasses, Hatchets, Mallets, Pitchforks & Sickles in addition to the default tools to further customize your look in Minecraft.
**You must enable Holiday Creator Features in order for the Behavior Pack to work.
Select version for changelog:
Uploaded a new version of the resource pack that includes the following additions:
- Added a new variant that hides player armor without removing 3D Skin elements.
- Tweaked existing Royal, Light & Medium (Default) armor variants to show 3D hair and face items.
- Added support for 24 more custom item types to the RP & BP.
Edit: I noticed someone mentioned planetminecraft and looked it up and found separate packs
This was one of my favorite resource packs when i saw it on planet Minecraft!
The only problem I found Is that there are 2 moons at night (the actual moon and the SkyBOX one)
I might ask for a version without the custom sky/sun/moon only on the next update? (I know how to manually remove anyways so it isnt important)
Aaalso, I LOVE your samurai armor pack. I may ask/suggest for a knight plate armor pack if you really like that theme as well, and have the time for it.
Thank you again!!!
I'm also very keen on a more traditional plate armor pack - my skills just weren't up to the challenge when I created the 'heavy' armor set. It's definitely on the list for the future.
Now that you mention it, I love the skybox, you did pretty well recreating the destiny feel
To this day I've been swapping between this and the samurai pack
I even made a slight edit (just changing the colors) so I have an amethyst/copper variant for those mods :D
thanks for uploading it here :D
