For the first time ever, we finally have a full complete cross-platform release!

Optimum Realism is cross-compatible with all the playable game editions (excluding the education edition) which is a massive achievement. Very few texture packs have this level of support and even fewer realistic texture packs can be played on both the editions while still being considerably the same texture pack. (This however does not mean that features are comparable as well)

Updates

As you may already know if you've had a close look at my previous posts, these past few updates I've been really trying my best to polish existing blocks, at this stage we have very few blocks that need to be textured(as on my personal bucket list) and are never textured yet, so I took this opportunity to refine existing blocks before adding more textured blocks to the game, I've improved scaling, overall theme, colour palettes and so much more that I'd probably need 4 more posts worth of text to explain them in detail, but let's keep this brief.

Changelog:

Sugarcane is added with a model, which makes it much more pleasing
Cactus also comes with a model now, and two cactus now spawn where a single one would've spawned.
Enhanced Parallax Interactive Depth-Write
Copper block is updated
Oak planks are updated
Spruce planks are updated
Jungle planks are updated
Birch planks are updated
Acacia planks are updated
Dark Oak planks are updated
Cherry planks are updated
Crismon planks are updated
Warped planks are updated
Red Sand is updated
Dead Bush is updated
Calcite is added
Crying obsidian is added
Terracotta block now works with Polytone on Iris
Snow Side texture is added
and other minor changes(join discord for contact updates on what's been updated for what as well as have a chance to influence your opinions for those changes)

As you see, there is a lot of area that's been covered; and it's the reason why this update took so long to make, it also took a lot of work. This was not just physical work but also a lot of mental work as well as these updates lay the foundation of what the texture pack can achieve in the future as well as meet the current expectations of people who have found interest in this texture pack.

Anyways, as always,
have a good day :D
