RealisCraft JE: Realistic Default Textures [1.7.0] #Update

- XXL POM Update: An enhancement has been introduced to RealisCraft, enhancing the realism of textures and significantly improving the Parallax Occlusion Mapping (POM) effect. Moreover, this update addresses a bothersome issue with repetitive patterns on textures featuring POMs, which had been a source of frustration for players. I removed this feature due to its tendency to introduce a shadowy effect into the voids within the POM texture, ultimately yielding an unusual texture. Currently, this enhancement has been applied to a select few blocks, with plans to extend the improvements to additional blocks in upcoming updates.

  • Updated blocks: Mangrove Trapdoor, Melon, Mangrove Planks, Moss block, Mossy cobblestone, Mossy stone bricks, Mud, Mud bricks, Muddy mangrove roots, Mushroom stem, Mycelium, Nether bricks, Nether gold ore, Nether quartz ore, Nether wart block, Netherite block, Netherrack, Note block, Oak door bottom, Oak log, Oak planks, Oak trapdoor, Observer, Obsidian, Ochre froglight, Orange concrete, Orange concrete powder, Orange glazed terracotta, Orange terracotta, Orange wool, Oxidized copper, Oxidized cut copper, Packed ice, Packed mud, Pink concrete, Pearlescent froglight, Pink concrete powder, Pink glazed terracotta, Pink terracotta, Pink wool, Piston, Sticky piston, Podzol, Polished andesite, Polished basalt, Polished blackstone, Polished andesite, Polished basalt, and Polished blackstone, Powder snow, Prismarine, and Prismarine bricks, Pumpkin, Purple concrete, Purple concrete powder, Purple glazed terracotta, Purple terracotta, Purple wool, Purpur block, Purpur pillar, Raw copper block, Raw gold block, Raw iron block, Red concrete, Red concrete powder, Red glazed terracotta, Red mushroom block, Red nether bricks, Red sand, Red sandstone, Red terracotta, Red wool, Redstone block, Redstone lamp, Redstone ore, Reinforced Deepslate, Repeater, Respawn Anchor, Rooted Dirt, Sand, Sandstone, Sculk, Sculk catalyst Sculk sensor, Sculk shrieker, Sea lantern, Sea pickle, Shroomlight Slime block, Smithing table, Smoker, Smooth basalt, Smooth stone, Smooth stone slab, Snow, Soul campfire, Soul lantern, Soul sand,  and Soul soil.
