What's next

It's a constant fight to dedicate time to making Depixel. There's so much I want to do, yet life and survival always get in the way. Too often, I feel like I'm doing the work of a hundred men. Sometimes, it's getting to the point that I can't keep up and start to neglect my needs, and it's a snowball effect that I'm trying my hardest to slow dow...

Road and traffic in Minecraft?

Nope, just a newly made Realm status indicator for Depixel.

The Java Edition 1.20.2 update has been released and brought some major under-the-hood changes to the GUI, which broke a lot of things in Depixel. I take it as an opportunity to...

Armor trim smithing templates

After a total of around 10 hours, it's almost time for them to see the light.

The first part of making these was figuring out what the base plate represents. To me, it looked like some kind of rough stone plate, probably ancient lost relics from the fact that they can only be found.

The next part was figuring out the colors of these ...

Raiser Armor Trim Smithing Template

Sometimes the name of the item does not tell what its texture represents. It is a part of my work to figure it out before starting texturing. What do you think it is?

Custom textures for all the fences

Since bamboo fence and fence gate officially got special treatment with intricate custom textures, I decided to fix this injustice.

Remastered corner rail from 3D add-on

Off with the pixelated, over-detailed, and performance-heavy, in with the simplified, consistent, and pleasant. It is a work-in-progress model by our 3D artist Enderscram. We're also taking the challenge to ensure it has a near-perfect circular shape.

Last month there's been a little less content than I would have liked, but I'll have some more Minecraft 1.20 textures to make up for it this month.

I'm really happy to see the growth rate on this Patreon page. That means I can dedicate more and more time to updating Depixel, and I'm thankful to all the new and veteran patrons for giving m...

The updated Crucible sword from Doom Eternal

I brought it closer to the original, keeping Depixel's philosophy for things outside Minecraft. It will be released soon as a separate accessory.

Shiny New 3D Doors

Me and our modelling artist Enderscram are working on remastering, fixing and adding much needed depth to the doors. The next update will include them.

I'd like to do these kind of polls every month to know how I could improve patron content in terms of quality and quantity.

Sculk and Sculk Catalyst

Space cake is ready.

Froglight

Reinforced Deepslate

Sometimes shapes feel static and lack any character if upscaled literally. Higher resolution means more space for detail and interpretation, which Depixel takes advantage of to introduce.

Cobbled Deepslate

Sometimes I spend hours on one texture to make it feel right, and cobblestone-like textures are one of them. Keeping the highlight/shadow balance of the vanilla and at the same time making cobbles not look "glazed" requires the right balance of shine, shade and roughness.

Custom top and bottom for Deepslate ores

Ores now match Deepslate completely instead of being one texture on all sides.

Cave Vines + OptiFine Glow

The OptiFine glow is less noticeable here, but in comparison makes the berries pop more and the texture less flat.

See You in the New Year

This year had a lot of ups and downs. The overall world situation hasn't changed much, and it affected me and my family in quite unforeseen ways. COVID left my parents without a job and qualifications to get support in these times, so we fell into borderline poverty, and I had to step in and keep us afloat all this time, even though it was reall...

Birch Polypore, a Concept From 1.19 The Wild Update

Took a while, but was excited to see how it actually would look in the game. Might add this as a part of Extended add-on.

Glow lichen (but actually glows)

Perfect case for OptiFine emmisives, brings Christmas into caves.
