John Smith Legacy for MINECRAFT
Hello and Welcome, here you'll find the John Smith Legacy Resource Pack and my own modified JSC 'JimStoneCraft Edition', both packs are 32px resource packs for Java Minecraft.
Downloads
Resource Packs are available for quite a few different versions of Minecraft so please download the Resource Pack for the version of Minecraft you want as the packs are only compatible with the versions of Minecraft listed on the site.
Java
Also available sometimes are Snapshot packs, these are for the snapshot test releases of the game.
https://www.johnsmithlegacy.co.uk/ - John Smith Legacy for Vanilla Minecraft
Support for OptiFine, not required but do add some nice features like Connected Textures (CTM), Custom Item Textures (CIT), Better Skies, Random Mobs, Custom Colours, Shaders and lots more.
Shaders I've used are Sildurs Vibrant Shaders and Triliton`s shaders, theres also support for VoxelMap by MamiyaOtaru.
The resource packs have not been tested with any other mod, sorry I cannot help or support untested mods.
Bedrock Edition
Bedrock packs are also available for the Bedrock Edition of the game.
Modded Game
These are also only for vanilla MINECRAFT, if you're looking for the modded game 'JohnSmith Technician's Remix' or 'John Smith Modded' then see the links below.

About Us
Long ago on a dark cold night I was watching JimPlayGames on YouTube play the game Minecraft, bought the game and after a few weeks I found out about dark room mob spawners to get all the good stuff, I then watched a lot of Monkeyfarms YouTube tutorials, then way too many Lets Plays and got hooked on the distinct look of the John Smith texture pack.
After about a year or so, JohnSmith (the original author) decided to no longer update the pack, the pack was too good to just let it die so the community took over and John Smith Legacy was born, I joined the project early on but slowly as all the others went onto the sickly sweet modded game and the millions of textures needed for that, I started to specialized in the vanilla game, took over the hosting and control of that release.
Credits
Quite a few people have helped over the years with this project, submitting new textures, bug reports, questions and general encouragement, thank you everyone and I hope this project continues for all time.

I just uploaded the John Smith Legacy resource packs for Snapshot 16w40a (Minecraft 1.11 Exploration Update), also some small updates to the 1.10.2 and 1.8.9 resource packs.
https://www.johnsmithlegacy.co.uk/ - John Smith Legacy for Minecraft
The John Smith Legacy resource pack for Minecraft 1.11 Exploration Update has now been released, note that this pack is not backwards compatible with older releases of the game, please download the correct release for the version of Minecraft you are playing.

Nice this has it's own thread, to keep vanilla and modded separate, can get confusing. Though I usually have modded in mind, one still needs the base game to have the correct set of textures.

To tell them how to live is to prevent them living.
On the official website it says there are two versions: "Legacy" and "Legacy JSC". I assume the second version is made/maintanted by you.
What's the difference exactly? It's just the textures? Is the feature support (like connected textures and such) the same?
Inactive on these forums. Use Steam or Discord if you want to say hi
I maintain both vanilla packs, the Legacy JSC is my own modified version 'JimStoneCraft Edition', both packs are for Vanilla Minecraft, the JimStoneCraft Edition is a branch of the standard pack and it's the pack I personally play the game with.
When I implement a new CTM or 3D model it's added to both packs so either pack has all the latest features only some textures are different.
The Legacy pack is more towards what the original JohnSmith author made and where the JSC has a few texture changes, you can see differences on the site in the screen shots on the main download page.
What's the difference exactly?
Too many to list as the JSC pack has evolved over the years, some are listed below:-
Smooth Stone, Wood and quite a few other blocks are different.
Wool, Clay and Glass have different colours.
Most of the items are different and they also do not have the black borders around the edges of the items.
Some entities like the Cow, Creeper, Slime and other are different.
There are a lot of players who have got used to the original JS pack and just want the missing items, blocks added in the newer Minecraft updates.
The best thing to do is just download both and see which you like the best.

Hello,
When I try to download the pack from your site I get sent to some anti-leeching page. Is there an alternative download link? I really like the pack.
Cheers,

Hi. Every time I attempt to download your resource pack, it fails to do so. It doesn't start downloading it, it just hangs up and provides no information and then fails. Any ideas?
Which file are you trying to download?
I've tested all the links, checked the site code, had a friend test the downloads too and all of them are working.
Try clearing your web browser cache or maybe try a different web browser.
Also if you are downloading it using a link on some other website then that will not work, the site uses link protection.
Go to the link below and then click the link for the download, it's the one next to the yellow Download icons.

Hope this helps

I tried to download both, and from that site. Seems it's an issue with either firefox or the attached Adblock/Ghostery.. I got it by downloadiing via Internet Explorer. Thanks for the help.
Working on the new 1.12 blocks?
Yes but the terracotta blocks are going to take sometime.

Your link security is using referer headers right? I think that was my problem. Fixed now. Loving the pack!

I just uploaded the John Smith Legacy 17w06a snapshot resource pack.
Concrete, Concrete Powder and more for the Minecraft 1.12 snapshots.
https://www.johnsmithlegacy.co.uk/ - John Smith Legacy for Minecraft
Glad to see this is still going strong, I contributed to this pack a long time ago in 2012 I think, oh the memories.
Some of the later updates to the game have slowed the game done on older hardware, maybe try OptiFine or lower the render distance.
On another note I've just uploaded the John Smith Legacy 17w13b snapshot resource pack, lots of GUI changes for the new Advancements & books (only Minecraft 1.12 snapshots).
EDIT: Updated to 17w14a snapshots, only a few changes needed.

I just uploaded the John Smith Legacy 17w15a snapshot resource pack, a few GUI changes for the new Advancements and the 16 new bed colours (only Minecraft 1.12 snapshots).
https://www.johnsmithlegacy.co.uk/ - John Smith Legacy for Minecraft
John Smith Legacy 1.12.0-pre3 resource pack has been uploaded.
GUI tweak to the Recipe Book again, I've also made a few random textures, only for Minecraft 1.12 snapshots.
https://www.johnsmithlegacy.co.uk/ - John Smith Legacy for Minecraft
Snapshot time again...
John Smith Legacy 17w50a and John Smith Legacy JSC 17w50a snapshot packs have been uploaded, fixed some potted plants and the custom stairs.
Have a wonderful Holiday and a great New Year.
