This method works for Geometry Dash installed via Steam or as a portable version. No additional software needed—just simple file management.

In this case, I selected the Zoink + TrollMachine texture pack for Geometry Dash 2.2081 from the menu using a custom search. Once on the official page, scroll down to see the available options.

Focus on the PC Download button. This downloads the Vanilla version of the Texture Pack, compatible with both external and Steam installations. This version includes only the textures (no mods), making it the fastest way to refresh your game’s look via the Resources folder.

Simply click the button to download your .zip archive (e.g., GDVersion-TexturePackName.zip). Once saved, you’re ready to proceed with the installation.

This path works for the official Steam version, but also for portable versions or manually installed third-party builds.

Step 2: Extract and Install the Texture Pack

To do this, you must have already downloaded your texture pack from solubletexturepacks.com and be able to see it in your Windows file manager.

DON’T HAVE A PROGRAM TO OPEN .ZIP FILES?

Click to see how to install one

Texture pack files will always come in .zip format, so you’ll need one installed. I recommend WinRAR, but you can install whichever one you prefer.

Just search for WinRAR on Google and download the latest version for Windows PC.

Once you’ve installed it and followed the installer steps on the official website, you’ll have access to WinRAR and can extract the file by right-clicking it in Windows File Explorer and selecting “Extract Here.” Alternatively, if you don’t want to extract everything directly into the current folder, click “Extract to [Folder Name]” and it will create a new folder with the files neatly inside. (By the way, my screenshot shows the Spanish language option, but you’ll see it in English.)

Once the .zip file is extracted, we will have a folder with the name of the texture pack, containing all the resources ready to be installed in our Geometry Dash.

And that’s it! As we can see, we now have access to the Geometry Dash folder containing the game’s core resources.

In this case, I’ll call it “GD copy,” but you can name it whatever you want. This ensures we keep all the original .dll files and assets which are necessary for the game to function correctly.

COPY And PASTE into your backup folder (security folder):

Now we have a solid backup of the game’s Resource folder and core files. This will save us if we ever need to uninstall the texture pack or replace it without issues in the future.

With those files copied, navigate back to your official Geometry Dash game folder. Paste the files directly into this directory. You now have an installed texture pack (pure vanilla, without the help of mods or plugins!).

ALTERNATIVE “CLEAN” INSTALL

There’s another option if you prefer a cleaner folder structure. I usually combine everything in the main directory (my recommended configuration for compatibility with Geode or MegaHack). However, if you don’t use mods and want a cleaner folder, simply copy the contents of the download and paste them directly into the `Resources` folder. This replaces original assets efficiently and works perfectly for vanilla users.

Enjoy your new aesthetics!

Once you have your texture pack installed, returning to normal is incredibly easy thanks to the backup we made earlier. Simply go to your Geometry Dash directory, select everything except your backup folder, and delete it all.

Next, open your security backup folder, copy everything inside, and paste it back into the main Geometry Dash folder.

Done! Our Geometry Dash is completely restored and as good as new.

If something goes wrong with the installation, or you made a massive mistake configuring the pack, don’t worry—your account is not ruined. Simply go back to Steam, right-click Geometry Dash, and select Uninstall. Then reinstall it (basically freshly formatting everything) and try again to identify what went wrong.

This method installs a custom APK with the texture pack pre-baked in. Since it replaces the entire app, follow the safety steps carefully to protect your progress.

Let’s try the Zoink + TrollMachine texture pack for Geometry Dash 2.2081 by scrolling on the homepage.

In this section, we’ll focus on the Android version. The download buttons for these are typically green for easier identification. This method is aimed at users who exclusively want vanilla Geometry Dash without installing any mods—equivalent to the version available on the Google Play Store. We highly recommend purchasing the original game from the official store when you can to support RobTop, the creator of the game.

If you use the official Play Store version, you’ll need the Geode method to install texture packs. Meanwhile, for this standalone APK method, you can choose between two versions depending on availability: Standard Android or Android with All Icons Unlocked.

Step 1: Choose and Download a Texture Pack

Browse solubletexturepacks.com to find your favorite pack. You can find them by:

• Using the search bar for a specific texture pack
• Searching in the texture packs section on the website
• Direct links to the texture pack

Look for the green Android Download buttons (Standard or All Icons Unlocked). This will provide a .zip file containing the lancher installer.

Standard

The normal game exactly as you know it, just with the custom textures applied over the vanilla graphics.

8. Uninstall Application

DON’T HAVE A FILE EXTRACTOR?

Click to see how to install one

To install the texture pack for Vanilla Geometry Dash on Android, you’ll need a file extractor. We’ll use ZArchiver, a .zip file extractor. As mentioned in the guide, all downloadable files will be in .zip format, as it’s more user-friendly for file storage. Also, due to Google’s policies, I can’t share the file directly, so it must be compressed.

Search for ZArchiver on Google Play, or you can click the following link.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.zdevs.zarchiver

However, feel free to use any mobile app you prefer, as long as it can extract .zip files. Make sure the app has this function.

The first thing we’ll do on our Android device after installing ZArchiver is go to our phone’s downloads folder. This folder is usually there by default on most devices; just go to your main downloads folder and you’ll find the texture pack file you want in .zip format.

Once you’re there, tap and hold the .zip file and extract its contents with ZArchiver. Then, wait for the extraction to complete.

1. Launcher ready

2. Tap the .zip

3. Extract Here

4. Extracting…

5. Tap Install

6. Confirm

7. Installing…

8. Tap Open

Once it’s finished, we’ll finally have the texture pack installed on our device, with all the textures for vanilla geometry dash.

Next, we will configure our account.

1. Tap Account

2. Tap Log In

3. Enter your account

4. Login Success

Once we have entered our account details and logged in, we should see something like “thank you for logging in,” and we can upload our data using the “load” button.

5. Tap Load

6. Confirm Load

7. Loading…

8. Data Applied

9. Sync Success

And that’s it, you can now enjoy the texture pack for Android Geometry Dash Vanilla!

If you installed the Android version with all icons unlocked, you should see something like the screenshot—all icons unlocked. Could this get you banned? The short answer is a resounding no, but if you have more questions and want an explanation, you can consult the FAQ page.

Enjoy your new Android texture pack!

Watch the YouTube tutorial to install Geode on PC and Android! (Spanish)

DON’T HAVE GEODE YET?

Click here to see how to install it

Select Download button for Geode for PC

Next, choose the Windows version.

Run the installer and follow the provided steps to install Geode directly into your Geometry Dash Steam directory or an external launcher folder.

The default path where Geode files should have installed looks like this:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Geometry Dash

Done! You now have Geode fully installed.

⚠️ WARNING!!! MODS REQUIRED

To ensure proper loading and compatibility for texture packs downloaded from solubletexturepacks.com, it is mandatory to install Happy Textures and Texture Loader. We heavily utilize Happy Textures’ features to change UI window palettes and introduce custom sprites that vanilla Geometry Dash does not provide. Running without these can lead to broken graphics or missing UI assets.

If you don’t spot them right away, utilize the Search bar on the bottom right and type “texture”. The results should promptly include both tools.

Tap the blue Get button on both mods. I suggest beginning by acquiring Happy Textures; it will typically ask to download Texture Loader natively as a dependency, though installing them one by one is fine.

If this is your first time installing Geode, it will likely ask for mods like Alpha’s Geode Utils, ImagePlus, and Node IDs. You must accept these as well.

Promptly, Geode will require us to restart to mount the dependencies successfully. Click on Restart.

After reopening, click on the Geode button to check your installed mods list. Both loaders should be active and installed. For now, everything is set to learn how to prepare packs!

After finding your perfect pack and confirming the download, the archive will appear in your default downloads folder (e.g. Geometry Dash version Name Texture Pack Geode By Soluble.zip).

DON’T HAVE A PROGRAM TO OPEN .ZIP FILES?

Click to see how to install one

Texture pack files will always come in .zip format, so you’ll need one installed. I recommend WinRAR, but you can install whichever one you prefer.

Just search for WinRAR on Google and download the latest version for Windows PC.

Right click the archive and select “Extract Here”.

You’ll then obtain a folder with the designated textures inside.

Click and you’ll see all the necessary files for the geometry dash vanilla textures + Mod textures. It will be compatible with most Geode mods and the 40 most popular Geode mods, including most possible textures. If you want to know the list of compatible mods, check the following link.

Open Geometry Dash with Geode active and click the Settings button

Select the Graphics button (if the texture loader was installed successfully, a Textures button will appear).

Here you’ll see a panel for Texture Packs. It will be completely empty right now, preventing us from equipping everything yet.

Click on the Folder icon in the lower right hand corner to directly open your system’s texture-pack storing location.

Clicking the directory button directly paths you inside:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Geometry Dash\geode\config\geode.texture-loader\packs
For now the directory continues to sit empty. Keep the window opened, it’s where everything operates!

Reopen your extracted folder from Step 4. You must copy the actual directory itself holding the files inside (e.g. Metallic Texture Pack) and paste it into the targeted texture pack loader destination generated in Step 5.

To verify absolute precision, opening the directory you just pasted (e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Geometry Dash\geode\config\geode.texture-loader\packs\Metallic Texture Pack) should exhibit the system files resembling the view below.

Once we have completed the process of moving the texture pack folder, we will go back to Geode Texture Pack Loader, and in this window we will press the update button.

Behold! The texture pack instantly reflects on board, waiting for configuration.

Place the cursor over the list, click the arrow (+) to drag from “Available” to “Applied”, sending it from Available to Applied and concluding by tapping Apply to confirm actions directly.

You can enjoy your texture packs in Geode with Texture Loader, as many as you want! Just make sure to save them in this path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Geometry Dash\geode\config\geode.texture-loader\packs\

which is the same folder that Geode takes you to once you click on Texture Loader mod.

As a requirement, we need to have the official Geometry Dash installed and purchased from the Android Play Store.

You can also have it externally using a different launcher; we must have the Geometry Dash app installed before running Geode. If you don’t have Geometry Dash on the Play Store, you can directly install the game from our Android launcher. You just need to go to the No Trail Texture Pack to get the base game, but with the invisible trail activated. Due to Google’s policies, I cannot share the base game. The closest possible is this texture pack; you can install it and later overlay Geode.

DON’T HAVE GEODE YET?

Click here to see how to install it

Visit geode-sdk.org and click on the Download button.

Next, choose the latest Android version and confirm the download.

Go to your Downloads folder and locate the Geode for Android launcher.

Select the launcher to install and confirm Geode’s installation.

1. Tap for install

2. Process

3. Open the Geode app

4. Launch the application

Done! We now have Geode installed! If you had Geometry Dash installed from the Play Store or manually with an external launcher, you should now have the Geode button available to install mods.

We will press the Geode button that appears

Next, we will tap “Get” to obtain these two absolutely necessary mods for texture packs to work.

⚠️ WARNING!!! MODS REQUIRED

To ensure proper loading and compatibility for texture packs downloaded from solubletexturepacks.com, it is mandatory to install Happy Textures and Texture Loader. We heavily utilize Happy Textures’ features to change UI window palettes and introduce custom sprites that vanilla Geometry Dash does not provide. Running without these can lead to broken graphics or missing UI assets.

If you don’t spot them right away, utilize the Search bar on the bottom right and type “texture”. The results should promptly include both tools.

Tap the blue Get button on both mods. I suggest beginning by acquiring Happy Textures; it will typically ask to download Texture Loader natively as a dependency, though installing them one by one is fine.

Once we tap install, it will ask to include the required mods. It is highly likely it will ask you to install other necessary mods; these are dependencies required by Happy Textures and Texture Loader. In fact, most mods use them. Accept the installation for all of them, including Alpha’s Geode Utils, Node IDs, Image Plus, and Texture Loader. We press continue.

We will have them installed once the process finishes, and it will ask us to restart the application to see the changes. We press the restart button.

Once the app restarts, it will return us to the main menu. We press the geode button again.

Done! In the installed mods window, we should see all these mods available and checked. We’ll leave it like this for now and move to the next step. We will return to this window later.

On the texture pack you wish to download from the website, press the Geode button and confirm the download of the .zip file.

We go to our phone’s downloads, in the default folder, and we will see a .zip file containing the texture pack adapted for Geode.

Don’t have a file manager? You’ll need it to install applications and also to extract files. I recommend opening the following card if you don’t have one as it will be necessary; I recommend ZArchiver.

DON’T HAVE A FILE EXTRACTOR?

Click to see how to install one

To install the texture pack for Vanilla Geometry Dash on Android, you’ll need a file extractor. We’ll use ZArchiver, a .zip file extractor. As mentioned in the guide, all downloadable files will be in .zip format, as it’s more user-friendly for file storage. Also, due to Google’s policies, I can’t share the file directly, so it must be compressed.

Search for ZArchiver on Google Play, or you can click the following link.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.zdevs.zarchiver

However, feel free to use any mobile app you prefer, as long as it can extract .zip files. Make sure the app has this function.

Once we have the .zip file in our downloads, what we’ll do is tap the file and select the option “Extract to./<Archive name>/”, which will leave us with a folder with the files for the Texture Pack.

Once we have extracted it, we will go into the resulting folder to see all the texture pack files. (We will use this later)

Now I will open Geode again. It’s important to clarify that from now on we must open the Geode App on Android to have our mods available; we will no longer open the Geometry Dash app. Once we open Geode, we must press the “Launch” button to run our mods and enjoy Geometry Dash.

Now we will resume with Geode and the Texture Loader mod. What we’ll do is select the settings button.

Thanks to the Texture Loader mod, a textures button will be loaded; we select it.

Now we will press on the folder icon to see the texture packs path.

In my case, on my phone it took me to Google’s file manager, which isn’t useful for us since we need to move files. If it lets you choose an option, choose ZArchiver to navigate faster to the folder. Use the method you prefer, it’s exactly the same; I’ll go back to ZArchiver as it is more practical and visual.

First, we will return to the texture pack file in our downloads folder and enter the folder that was extracted.

We will hold down the folder with the Name of our texture pack (Metallic Texture Pack) to see the options menu and select copy or cut, whichever you prefer.

We will press the 2 dots and the up arrow icon to go backwards, and we need to reach the following path to paste our texture pack into the official folder so that our texture packs work.

Android/media/com.geode.launcher/game/geode/config/geode.texture-loader/packs/

Done! Our texture pack is now installed. We verify that it is properly installed, make sure to have it managed more or less like this:

Android/media/com.geode.launcher/game/geode/config/geode.texture-loader/packs/”TexturePackName”/ <—-Texture Pack Sheets

Now we will go to Geode and run it.

Open geode

Press the Textures button

You should see the texture pack you installed in the left “Available” window. If you don’t see it, press the refresh button to load available texture packs; if you did it correctly, it should appear.

Now we will drag the texture pack from Available to Applied to apply it, and then we press the apply button and we will have the texture pack installed!

Enjoy your texture pack with Geode!

And not just this one, you can install as many as you want! Just place them in the same path we saw in the tutorial. Each texture pack must have the following structure: /Name Texture Pack/ <—- texture pack files here

All of this in the path: Android/media/com.geode.launcher/game/geode/config/geode.texture-loader/packs/

If the folder to install texture packs happens to not be in that path, check it from the texture loader by pressing the folder icon to know the exact path without errors:

As is well known, the system can be somewhat more restricted than Windows, so you will need a descriptive tutorial on how to install a texture pack on MacOS.

Watch Geode MacOS Tutorial

Subsequently, you must introduce textures to Geode with the Texture Loader mod, just like in the PC Windows tutorial on this same page.

An equivalent for a file extractor could be The Unarchiver for MacOS:

👉 Get The Unarchiver

You can use it to follow the same steps to install a texture pack in Geode. The option you would have to choose to download a texture pack for Geode on MacOS is this button on the texture packs website:

The official Geode project provides two installation methods depending on how you manage sideloaded apps on your device.

These methods install Geode using sideloading tools, which allow apps outside the App Store to run.
