Anti Server Resourcepack
by szczurey
Anti Server Resourcepack stops a Fabric client from loading resource packs that a server sends, so players can keep their own textures and sounds when they join.
What it does
Many servers push a resource pack that the game fetches and applies on join, often with heavy textures, custom sounds or effects that cut frame rate. This mod blocks those server-side packs entirely, so nothing is fetched or applied without the player's permission. Players who want full control over what gets loaded can rely on it to keep their chosen look across every server they visit.
The mod runs only on the client, so servers do not need it and players join without installing anything on the server side. It requires Cloth Config API, Fabric API and Mod Menu, which must be present alongside it on Fabric. The code is published under the MIT License, and the project is not open source. Files cover 30 release versions, 1.16.5 – 1.21.11, with 1.0.0 for 1.21.11 as the latest Fabric build.
Key features
Server pack blocking
Resource packs sent by a server are not fetched or applied while the mod is active.
Player control of loaded assets
The player decides which textures and sounds load, instead of accepting whatever a server supplies.
Lightweight design
The mod does a single job, blocking server packs, and adds no other content to the game.
Consistent look across servers
Using the same client setup on every server keeps one visual style, which suits players who prefer a fixed appearance.
