🍂 Solstice Villagers ❄️ A seasonal villager resource pack designed to integrate directly with your Solstice mod for dynamic weather-based clothing, or to be used standalone with ETF/OptiFine for randomized villager variety!
Features
👗 Seasonal Outfits: Includes distinct outfit textures tailored for different weather conditions, from warm winter coats to breathable summer robes.
🎲 Outfit Randomization: Enjoy visual diversity with multiple outfit variations per biome when using ETF or OptiFine.
⚡ Performance Friendly: Fully optimized textures designed to blend seamlessly into the vanilla aesthetic with a minimal performance footprint.
🔌 Flexible Setup: Use it purely for randomized variety, or pair it with Solstice for true dynamic seasonal changes.

⚙️ How It Works (Read Carefully) To ensure this resource pack works for everyone, its functionality changes based on your setup:
1. With the Solstice Mod (Dynamic Seasons): When paired with the Solstice mod, the resource pack coordinates with your server/world calendar. Instead of random outfits, villagers will dynamically wear the specific outfits matching the active season or weather in real-time!
2. Vanilla + ETF / OptiFine (Randomized Variety): If you are running Minecraft with Entity Texture Features (ETF) or OptiFine (without the Solstice mod), the pack utilizes properties-based randomization. Villagers will spawn with randomized clothing across all 14 seasonal variants to add visual diversity, but they will not dynamically change with the weather.
3. Pure Vanilla (No Mods at all): Displays the default base outfits from the pack without randomization or seasonal changes.
