Chek's Mint Structures is a vanilla-friendly datapack that redesigns Minecraft's classic structures while preserving their original purpose, scale, and identity.
Instead of replacing villages with large custom builds, this datapack reimagines existing structures as if they were updated by Mojang today. Every structure remains recognizable and functional while receiving improved architecture, detailing, and environmental integration.

Chek's Mint Structures follows three core principles:
Structures are designed to match Minecraft's visual style and avoid overly detailed or unrealistic building techniques.
Villages remain instantly recognizable. Existing structure layouts, roles, and gameplay functions are preserved.
Buildings receive improved block palettes, architectural details, and environmental decoration while maintaining the feel of vanilla Minecraft.
If you enjoy Minecraft's original structures but feel they could use a visual refresh, this datapack aims to provide a more polished and immersive experience without changing the core gameplay.
This project is currently in beta.
The current release focuses on Plains Villages, with additional village variants, structure overhauls, generation improvements, and further polishing planned for future updates.
This project is actively being developed. Feedback, bug reports, and suggestions are welcome and help shape future updates.
