How to install

Vanilla RTX 1.21.90 → 1.21.80 is the go-to Bedrock texture pack and shader for Minecraft RTX, with the goal of blending the worlds of Vanilla and RTX Minecraft since 2020. You can make use of Minecraft’s own ray tracing features in your worlds and servers with Vanilla RTX. It is also possible to make configurations and additions without compromising the vanilla experience. This pack has been made to pretty much change all of Minecraft Bedrock. It is for players who want realism without ditching the classic blocky features that Minecraft is known for. This isn’t any of your average Bedrock shaders or texture pack.

This isn’t like those regular Bedrock shaders that you are used to already. It is an upgrade to the vanilla rather than a complete replacement. Blocks still look like Minecraft blocks; but now, they respond to light in ways you’ve never seen. Vanilla RTX easily transforms Minecraft into an RTX world, enriching color, made with top and the best realistic texture with a natural and native feel. Vanilla RTX can be added to worlds and your server simply by dropping it into your resource packs folder. The pack includes custom-made materials and configurations to work with Minecraft’s raytracing features.

Features of Vanilla RTX

Let’s look at some of the most exciting features that Vanilla RTX can offer players below:

  • Realistic ray-traced lighting: Sunlight; fire; and glowstone cast ray-traced lighting that makes castles, torches, and other light sources feel sharper and more focused.
  • Ultra-clear water reflections: The pools and oceans reflect the world.
  • Improved material textures: Metals are incredibly metallic, glass is virtually glassy, and fabrics are softer. They just appear more realistic.
  • Shadowing depth: There are crisp shadows of trees and buildings as the day progresses.
  • Atmospheric and aura effects: Adds depth to any backdrop or landscape without obstructing object view.

With vanilla RTX, you won’t get enough of what Minecraft Bedrock has to offer players. With a trial, you will be convinced.
