I'm on a Minecraft server with a friend, and he wants to put a texture pack on the server (he is the Administrator).

However, I'd like to keep the original texture pack.

Is it possible for me not to apply the texture pack?

When I launch the game, whatever happens, the texture pack is downloaded and applied, even if I delete it beforehand. I can't stop the download.

I can't re-select the old texture pack either.

So, is there a solution?

Pre 1.7.6

  1. Hit ESC to go to the Pause Menu.
  2. Go to Options on the Pause Menu.
  3. Click Video Settings
  4. Change your Server Textures to OFF.
  5. Click Done twice then disconnect.
  6. Reconnect to the server.

If you want to turn the Server Texture Pack on again, go to the options menu, video settings, turn Server textures ON, click done twice, disconnect then reconnect to the server.

The server resource packs option is now per-server, and has three settings: prompt, enabled, and disabled. It can be set in the Server settings.

Okay, I've found out what to do for every case in the last version of Minecraft. So here it is :

When you create a server, you can "EDIT" the options of the server. In there, is a command box which asks the question if we want to use the server's texture pack or not.

Just choose the right answer between "Enable", "Disable", or "Prompt".

Ok.. For some reason, It's not there. So what you do is go into your .minecraft folder and delete a folder "server-resource-packs". When you join the sever, there should be a thing telling you that it's downloading the resource pack. Hit ESC and it will cancel the download.

Hope this helped!! <3

Anyone still needing to know how with later versions and haven't found out how to disable them, select the server from your list of servers after hitting Multiplayer, click edit. Just below the IP is the option to disable resource packs.
