This pack provides a simple static VHS overlay for Minecraft Bedrock Edition, adding scanlines and subtle color distortion to create a nostalgic, atmospheric vibe.

VHS OVERLAY

VHS vibes — a haunting yet comforting atmosphere.

Introduction

Purpose

This texture pack adds a simple static scanline overlay to Minecraft Bedrock Edition. It gives the game a nostalgic VHS look, ideal for horror or retro-themed builds and videos.

Audience

Perfect for players and creators seeking a VHS-style, horror, or retro atmosphere.

Main Features

Compatibility

This texture pack is ideal for horror maps, classic Minecraft, and VHS-styled projects. It pairs well with add-ons like Dwellers and other horror-themed Bedrock modpacks such as Fearcraft.

Installation Instructions

Download the Texture Pack

Download the variant you prefer from Modbay.org.

Open the File

After downloading, long-press the .mcpack.zip file and remove the .zip extension so it becomes a .mcpack. Tap the file, choose the arrow or "Open", then select Minecraft — it will launch and start importing automatically.

Apply the Pack

After importing, open any world > Resource Packs (or Texture Packs) > select "VHS OVERLAY" and click Activate, then start your world.

Enjoy the Atmosphere

Load an existing world or create a new one to see the VHS effect.

Adjust Brightness

For the best experience, lower the in-game brightness to enhance the spooky, retro vibe. I recommend setting it to the lowest level.

IMPORTANT!

⚠️ Do not put this in global resources! ⚠️

🪲 The VHS overlay may not be compatible with all displays — the overlay can be cut off at the edges on some screens. This will be addressed in a future update.

This project is free and made without third-party ad links. If you enjoy it, please leave a heart ❤️ — your support helps me improve the pack!

I welcome suggestions — thank you!

  1. The texture is good but there is only one problem, it does not take up the entire screen. Could you fix this and update to the new version of Minecraft? Thank you.

          JadenGild Author

    Yo can u update like the timecode is counting and how many day have u played in the world
    1. JadenGild profile avatar
      JadenGild Author
      It's impossible to track how many day have you played in your world but I can do the counting number by animating the pack but it would take me months or weeks
    2. ué e só você ativar a opção mostrar dias jogados nas configurações do mundo e pronto
      1. JadenGild profile avatar
        JadenGild Author
        Yeah i can do that editing the world days played

      Pick a variant, after that download zarchriver and go to the download files and find the VHS -overlay.mcpack.zip then rename the file then remove the zip it should look like this, vhs-overlay.mcpack then click on the file and click the arrow button ↗️ it's on the side of the view button, click it and find Minecraft then click on Minecraft it should open Minecraft and start importing automatically

        Your phone resolution is big so it doesn't fit I it's a glitch I will try to fix there's another way if you don't want to wait I created a pumpkin vhs there's no glitch in there but your vision is small it's creating but ok just tell me your resolution I fix it
    2. I wish this VHS had some block distortion effects, like the one on the PS1.

          Hello, I tried your VHS pack and its pretty nice, except my phone screen that is bigger than the texture itself, there is any way to fix it (2778x1284)
