This resource pack specifically takes a specific item, the mapple, that is a golden apple with nbt data attached. with this nbt data, the resource pack is able to identify the special golden apple, and retexture it with the desired Mapple skin.
Without this pack added, the Mapple (an incredibly rare and custom made item), will appear like a plain old golden apple. We want our players to have a full immersion and experience the correct skin.
In the Image, the process of the datapack and resourcepack for this implentation is shown. A player finds a material box in the vault. The material box drops a banana. A datapack correctly changes the banana into a golden apple with nbt data. THIS resourcepack is essential in the step of making the special golden apple retexture into the Mapple (in this case the peach). The Mapple then gives the entire map layout.
