To get an unzipped directory to show as a texture pack in Minecraft, that directory needs a pack.txt file in it.If the pack needs to be updated, it may be necessary to temporarily switch to the default pack and then overwrite the file. Minecraft may lock the currently used texture pack (for example, if the pack contains custom textures for user interface), so the file can't be overwritten.The texture pack list can be scrolled by dragging the scrollbars up or down. Many texture packs may be installed and overlap each other.So if the main menu looks the same after a pack is selected, it doesn't mean the pack is not working. Texture packs may redesign only some textures.
If Minecraft did not update, simply exit and reopen the texture packs screen.

If Minecraft is already running, make sure to leave the world. However this is not necessary, as of snapshot 12w23a, for as long as pack.txt exists, it is recognized as a texture pack. In-depth instructions on obtaining the files to make custom texture packs are located at Tutorials/Custom texture packs.
#ANIME TEXTURE PACK MINECRAFT ZIP FILE#
Most texture packs are in ZIP file format, but as long as it has the necessary files ( pack.mcmeta), Minecraft recognizes a folder as a texture pack. The root directory also contains an optional image called pack.png, which shows as the thumbnail for the pack on the texture pack selection menu. A texture pack is identified by Minecraft based on the presence of the folder of the root directory, which contain a text file called pack.mcmeta, which would contain a description of the texture pack which would appear in game.
