Vanilla RTX is the most popular ray tracing resource pack for Minecraft RTX. Crafted to provide an ideal default Minecraft RTX experience for all Bedrock Edition players; Vanilla RTX gives you the ability to use Minecraft’s ray tracing features in your worlds and servers by adding quality PBR texture maps and configurations on top of the base game without altering the vanilla experience, bringing complete ray tracing support for the original look of Minecraft while remaining as faithful as possible to all the different aspects and details of the vanilla game.
Vanilla RTX uses 16x heightmaps, Vanilla RTX Normals features 16x normal maps instead.
Everything has been fine-tuned for Minecraft with RTX.
Vanilla RTX & Vanilla RTX Normals cover every possible vanilla, creative, education edition or unobtainable block.
All blocks have highly detailed, unique material designs that remain consistent across different blocks of the same kind.
Support for Minecraft 1.21 (Tricky Trials) has been added.
Vanilla RTX Normals
An alternative standard Vanilla RTX experience, featuring handmade 16x Normal Maps for all blocks.
With Vanilla RTX, each block receives its own custom RTX flavor, giving it the character it deserves while maintaining a cohesive and authentic look. Every texture is meticulously taken care of for the highest level of detail and consistency, ensuring that every block preserves and complements its vanilla style and function, allowing you to experience Minecraft’s ray tracing at its finest.
Vanilla RTX is regularly updated both to add support for new blocks and to improve the appearance of existing ones.
Bug Fixes and Enhancements

The spoiler section below contains all of the latest information about the features included in the Experimental option to help you decide whether this option is for you or not.

Guide:

- Download and import Vanilla RTX (or Vanilla RTX Normals) by double clicking the .mcpack file and opening with Minecraft (or Minecraft Preview).
- In your Minecraft’s settings, find Global Resources and activate Vanilla RTX, you can also change to fogless or experimental options in this same page by clicking on the gear icon/pack settings button, then exit to main menu to save the changes.
- Enter settings again and navigate to Video Settings, scroll down and enable “Ray Tracing” option.
- Join any world, server or realm with ray tracing enabled.
Tips:
If textures appears broken or seem to fail to load, make sure that server/ream or world resource packs are not overriding Vanilla RTX.
If you’re experiencing low and inconsistent frame rate, disable Minecraft’s VSync, you can keep VSync on in your graphics card’s control panel without drawbacks. This also greatly reduces input latency when compared to Minecraft’s VSync.
It is recommended that you enable the pack in Global Resources instead of World resource packs, there’s an issue in Minecraft that can sometimes cause incomplete copies of resource pack files.
To ensure your pack options or subpack changes are saved, you may need to apply the settings multiple times.
There is an issue that will keep Vanilla RTX files from loading and might make the world appear glossy or black. To prevent this, always make sure ray tracing is enabled before you attempt joining a world. In other words, do not enable ray tracing while inside a world! Turn it on through the main menu settings instead.
The shortcut for toggling ray tracing while inside of a world is the semicolon key “;” on your keyboard, however it is a good practice to always keep ray tracing on and avoid dynamically toggling it, as it can cause a few glitches, such as black entity textures.
Education Edition related resources will only load if the pack is activated in world settings.
