Description from the author on Modrinth

With the introduction of the Happy Ghast, Ghasts have been updated to have twice the texture resolution. However, I felt like they could've taken advantage of this increased space to give both Ghasts some visual identity, which is why this pack was made!

Changes:

  • Both Ghasts now have their eyes lower and further apart, as well as additional subtle detailing, making use of their increased resolution.
  • The two Ghasts are now more visually distinct from each other:
  • Happy Ghasts have a faint bluish tint to reflect their well-hydrated upbringing. They also look happier and lack tear marks.
  • Nether Ghasts look more dry and wrinkly to reflect how the Nether's drought has influenced them. They also look more visibly depressed.
  • Dried Ghasts now have a unique item texture

This pack is also compatible with versions before 1.21.6 to just change the texture of the regular Ghast!
