Resolution & compatibility

At 16x it matches vanilla's native resolution, so it costs essentially no extra VRAM and runs anywhere Minecraft runs. Protect my eyes retextures simplistic, vanilla like, and works alongside other packs — Minecraft applies them top-down, so put Protect my eyes above any pack you want it to override. It also stacks cleanly with shader packs, since resource packs change textures while shaders change lighting.
