I dont know if anyone noticed this but me but in 1.8, when you looked in your inventory, the items would look a lot better then they do now (just my opinion). If you look at minecraft 1.8, there is a difference between minecraft's newest versions item icons. By icons, i mean the way the items look.

What? I've never noticed a difference.

Are you talking about the way somethings used to be outlined in black? Like steak?

What? You just want random black outlines? No support.

Just use a texture pack. I'm sure there is one out there that has the 1.8 textures.

uh I am gussing that he saying about the food icons if not i don't what the heck he is talking about (i have played before 1.8)

You mean the item change in 1.4?

Texture packs are a solution.

Texture packs are never a solution, yet they are a pretty good way to resolve a problem

@ everyone

Its not the food. its the blocks! Look at 1.8 items in the inventory by downgrading or something and then look at later versions like 1.4, they Are different!

Only a few blocks are different...

The difference is very minute, it would be a waste of time to revert back to that look.

Here us the difference
Capture (1) is 1.8 and capture is 1.4 and other newer versions.











Copy and paste these links to see the photos.

If it's that important to you, I think the Faithful or BDCraft texture packs outline their items in black. They look good, as well

that link is not a real i have tried many times it said cant find file.

The only difference is that in the 1.9 pre-releases they got shadding. I like the shaded block icons, they looked funny when I first saw them, but they're much better than the old unshaded icons.

FYI to everyone, you can't fix this with texture packs, only by moddifing the icon coding.
EDIT: The shading was changed not added.
