BadWolfMC uses a custom resource pack that enhances textures and items to better suit our game modes, such as providing skins for our special soulbound tools, custom mobs, and the game pieces for our Game Nights.

The BadWolfMC Resource Pack is designed to layer on top of your favorite resource pack and does not alter the appearance of any blocks or items that you'd encounter through normal play — you can use it with vanilla textures or with another resource pack and you won't even realize it's there. It changes the appearance of unobtainable items in Minecraft to create custom tools, hats, and more. For example, all of our hats are unique types of blaze rods!

Resource Pack Installation

By default, your game will prompt you to automatically download the pack when you log in — this is the recommended method. The pack is small and installs quickly, but may cause a brief pause as it loads. This is normal and only happens once per session, unless the pack is updated or removed from your system.

If you have trouble with the automatic downloads or prefer to skip the loading delay, you can download the pack manually , copy the zipped file to your resourcepacks folder (follow steps 1-3 in Issue 2 below), enable it in game in your Resource Packs menu, then disable automatic downloads in your Multiplayer settings. This method is especially useful for players with slower connections, but you would need to repeat the process each time the pack updates.

Resource Pack Troubleshooting

The following aims to address some of the issues that may be encountered when using server resource packs.

Issue 1: Minecraft will not download the resource pack

Problem: When you join the server it does not automatically download the resource pack
Solution:

Go to your Minecraft Multiplayer menu and click on your BadWolfMC server listing (play.badwolfmc.com). Click "Edit" in the bottom left hand corner.
In the editor, make sure you have your "Server Resource Pack" set to "Enabled" or "Prompt". "Enabled" will automatically download the resource packs when you join the network, and "Prompt" will ask you before the download begins. To save your settings, hit "Done".

Really, that should solve most instances of this problem. If it still does not work for you, try restarting your Minecraft client.

Issue 2: Resource pack gets stuck downloading at 100%.

Problem: Your "Server Resource Pack" is enabled already.
Solution:
1. We have to go to our .minecraft folder for this issue. If you know how to get to your folder already, skip to step 4. If not, start by going to "Options" in your Minecraft home screen.

2. Then go to your "Resource Packs...".

3. Then go to "Open resource pack folder".

4. Now click on the ".minecraft" in the address bar of your Folder Explorer.

5. You should now see a list of folders, find the one called "server-resource-packs" and go into it.

6. If you can't find this folder, then right click in an empty area of your Folder Explorer and click "New", then "Folder". Name your new folder "server-resource-packs". This should fix your issue, you can stop here.
7. Once in the folder, delete everything in the folder. (Don't worry, this is safe -- it just forces the client to re-download the resource pack since the one you had was probably corrupted)

Restart your Minecraft client and the issue should be fixed.

Issue 3: Minecraft crashes when downloading a resource pack.

You have Server Resource Packs enabled - if not, make sure it is enabled or prompted (see Issue 1). Some users may also receive an error without a crash, but an error message saying Internal Exception: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Parameter 'directory' is not a directory
Solution:

First, follow the steps in Issue 2 to get to your .minecraft folder.
Once there, right click in an empty area of your Folder Explorer and click "New", then "Folder". Name your new folder "server-resource-packs".
Now, restart your Minecraft client.

Issue 4: Stuck "unloading texture" when joining another server.

This can happen in any server, the solution will still work the same.
Solution:

Follow the steps in Issue 2 OR
Follow the steps in Issue 2 to get to your .minecraft folder. Once there, delete the contents of folder called "server-resource-packs" or delete and recreate the entire folder.
Restart your Minecraft client.

Issue 5: I'm tired of messing with the automatic resource pack.

We highly recommend allowing the automatic download of the resource pack since the automatic handling will always download the latest updates. However, if you regularly experience difficulty loading the pack you can download the latest version as a standalone Resource Pack . Do not unzip the file, but place it directly in your Resource Packs folder and ensure that it is the topmost pack in your "Selected Resource Packs" list. If you decide to download the Resource Pack manually, be sure to disable the automatic download by following the instructions in Issue 1 above. Resource Pack changes are typically announced on Discord, but we still recommend checking the version number and updating regularly, especially after server version updates.

For other issues with our resource pack, please create a ticket on our Discord for additional assistance.

-Resource packs (RPs) allow your game to show different textures and items to better suit the game mode you are playing. [[BadWolfMC Gamma]] uses a custom RP made specifically for BadWolfMC to go ''on top of'' your existing RP (meaning both can be used simultaneously), and changes items that are not typically obtainable in vanilla Minecraft to appear like a new item in the game. Our wands, for example, are all special types of uncraftable wooden hoes, so the Gamma experience would be very odd indeed without our custom textures. This article aims to address some of the issues that may be encountered when using server resource packs.
