Vanilla RTX: Everwinter

Hello everyone. Tonight, I'm bringing back something really special!
An everlasting remaster of Vanilla RTX 2022 Winter Edition has come to once again cover the Minecraft world in snow and ice!

Without spoiling too much, here are images taken during development of Vanilla RTX's Everwinter Extension

The Nether hasn’t been safe from the cold either. Every corner is coated in frost, with pale flames barely hoping to keep up.

Known Issue:
There’s a mismatch in grass top and side colors in dark oak forests, pale gardens, and cherry groves. This seems partially hardcoded by Mojang, there'll be an update the pack if a solution is found.

How to use?
Place it above Vanilla RTX in your resource packs list—just like any other add-on.

Notes:
A bit of history, the original Vanilla RTX 2022 Winter Edition was made to compete in MCPEDL's Christmas contest, and it won an award!
Last year I tried to update it, but with the Tricky Trials update and Vanilla RTX, and other projects, I seriously couldn't find time for it.
Well, now that I have, I've also made sure it remains usable for a very long time (unlike the original which quickly became outdated before January was over).
You can keep using this pack on top of Vanilla RTX and its Enhanced option for the foreseeable future, especially if you're the type of person to deploy their Christmas tree in June.

Anyhow, Vanilla RTX is now four full years old -- 2024 was tremendous.
I thank each one of you for being a part of my projects for another whole year. Let the fifth year begin! and have a Merry Christmas everybody!

A quick update, everyone! like I promised there would be one if I found a way to fix grass colors, and thankfully, I have!

• Grass Colors: They no longer appear to have green tint in some biomes with mismatched colors between grass side and top.

• Held Grass: The grass block item held by players now matches its in-world appearance.

• And a bunch of other tweaks are included in version 1.1.

Important:
This version (and the grass fix) require Minecraft 1.21.60+. While this Minecraft version is still in Preview at the time of writing this, consider this an update for the future.

• If you're using Minecraft 1.21.50, there's no need to update right now.

• Once Minecraft 1.21.60 is officially released and you plan to keep using this pack, update to version 1.1!

Side Note:
Expect Vanilla RTX 1.21.100 to arrive with the release of Minecraft 1.21.60, or hopefully even earlier. Be aware that a few small things might break imminently, and I'm trying my best to drag things back to a clean slate.
