How to Install Resource Pack in Minecraft Windows 10 Edition

If you want to further customize the look and feel of your Minecraft world, you can install resource pack in Minecraft Windows 10 Edition. Follow the below steps to learn how to do it.

Though many think Minecraft Windows 10 Edition is far more limited than the good old Java Edition, you can still do a lot of things. One of those things is the ability to install resource packs like skins and textures. In fact, there are some awesome global resource packs that completely change the look and feel of the Minecraft world.

So, without further ado, let me show how you can install a resource pack in Minecraft Windows 10 Edition.

Steps to Install and Activate Resource Packs in Minecraft Windows 10 Edition

Note: For this guide, I’m showing how to install the Global Resource pack.

Though all most all resource packs in Minecraft’s official marketplace are paid versions, there are several websites that let you download all kinds of resource packs for free. After downloading, you need to manually install them to use the resource pack in Minecraft.

I’ve already downloaded my favorite Dokucraft resource pack. So, if you didn’t already have your favorite resource pack downloaded, download it and then proceed to the next steps.

1. The downloaded Minecraft resource packs for Windows 10 Edition will have .mcpack extension. Double-click on the resource pack.

2. As soon as you double-click on the resource pack, Minecraft will open itself and starts to import the pack.

3. Depending on the pack and its size, it can take a couple of seconds to finish the importing process. Once done, you will see the “Successfully Imported” message.

4. Even though you’ve imported the resource pack, it is not yet set. To do that, click on the “Settings” button and then select the “Global Resources” option.

5. On the right panel, click on the newly added pack and then click on the “Add” button.

That is it. Launch the game you will see the world in a new light.

Hope that helps. If you are stuck or need some help, comment below and I will try to help as much as possible.

Currently the texturepack file tree is in a hard locked area on the hard drive. That being c:\program files\windowsapps\microsoft.minecraft. \data\ or something like that (tried doing that by memory, so it may be off). They may move the folder in later versions though.

You can claim ownership of that directory so you can mess with the files in it, but that’s not the only problem right now. The terrain textures are in a TGA file format. It is editable, of course, but it is coded differently than previous versions of the game. It seems that right now if you use images of any resolution different than the default itself, you get crashes. It looks like it will be easy in the future, but for now, it’s problematic.

That’s not the only problem. That particular folder seems to act very strange with access controls. Even if you take ownership and give yourself full control—even if it shows up as you having full control in the Effective Access tab—for some reason it still gives you access denied errors if you try to modify anything. The only modification you can do is deleting the files (proving it’s not an issue of the file being opened by another process) after which you can at least copy a modified version of the file over. But then Windows refuses to run the app, because it thinks it’s «broken», and asks you to re-download it from the Windows Store.

Sounds like flarn2006 ran into Windows 10 built-in «piracy» check. Windows 10 itself checks for «unauthorized», «modified», or «pirated» files/programs. «User modification» of any part of the program won’t work. Any texture packs have to come from MS/Mojang (and will most certainly be DLC).

I’m sure this check also applies not only to texture files, but to texture packs, skin files or packs, mods, etc.

Sorry guys, but don’t forget that MC is «under new management» and the «old» way of thinking or doing things don’t apply anymore.

Also don’t forget that if you want texture packs, I’m sure they’ll be coming. just as DLC.

It’s Beta, the game is far from done. Patience. We don’t have to have texture packs at this moment, do we?

I don’t think they’ll ever be «mods» for Win10. There will be updates and DLC (texture packs, etc.), but the DLC probably won’t come out till after it comes out of beta.

If you have to have mods, stick with the java or PE versions. (PS: Mojang’s Plan is for Win10/PE/consoles to «catch up» to the java version).

I’ve discovered a fairly «easy» way to modify texture that I’m sure can be improved upon. I’m also currently looking for people to help make texture modification easier, so if you’re interested shoot me a pm.

If you’re having issues in accessing the directory even with ownership or full control. You can try to use an administrator account (not your personal account with administrative privileges). Works 100% for me.

The problem is Administrator account is not active or not accessible at default. You can enable it by doing some commands at cmd. This is very advanced stuff for kids. You can follow my instructions to enable this. (If you are aware that might affect your PC performance, You can contact an expert or your parents to do this.)

1. Right click «Start»

2. Click «Command Prompt (Admin)» If prompt for an administrator password, contact the administrator and input the password if you know the password

3. Type in «net user Administrator /active:yes»

4. Now exit the «cmd»

5. Log out of the current account

6. You will now see a new account displayed

7. After doing anything you want, log out.

8. Log in to your account

9. Repeat steps 1-2

10. Type in «net user Administrator /active:no»

There you go! If you wondering why you need to do step 10, because this is very fragile account. If any virus got on your PC, they might access the administrator account and do many bad things that can destroy your computer 100%

Minecraft RTX шейдеры для Windows 10 — установка BETA! [гайд]

Совсем недавно для Minecraft windows 10 edition вышла бета того, что мы ждали — Minecraft with RTX , это версия с шейдерами с поддержкой технологии RTX (трассировка лучей.)

Вместе с NVidia разработчики создали версию игры которая использует аппаратную поддержку технологии RTX в картах NVidia RTX серии, что позволило создать шикарный шейдер для этой версии игры.

Для тех, кто не знает, RTX это технология в которой свет ведет себя супер реалистично, попадая на какой-то объект он не просто отражается, а отражается на множество углов, таким образом объект на который упал свет сам становится источником света в помещении. Все это делает картинку супер реалистичной.

Системные требования:

• Видео-карта: GeForce RTX 2060 или выше!
• Процессор: Intel Core I5 или выше!
• Оперативная память: 8Г или больше!
• Место на диске: Минимум 2Г
• Операционная система: Windows 10 64 bit

Изначально установим приложение Центр предварительной оценки XBOX. из Microsoft Store.
Далее заходим сюда:

Выбираем Minecraft и идём сюды.

Ну а далее мы делаем всё как на скриншоте:

Ура, мы смогли установить!
