Happy April 1st.

If you really want the normal textures back, here's how to get them:

If you are using vanilla 1.12.2

1. Go to your Minecraft launcher working directory. On Windows, this is %appdata%/.minecraft. On Mac, this is ~/Library/Application Support/minecraft. On Linux, this is ~/.minecraft.
2. Create the directory versions/1.12.2-original.
3. Download 1.12.2-original.json and save it to that directory. Make sure you are not saving it as a plain text file.
4. Start the launcher.
5. Create a new launcher profile (in the Launch options menu) and set to use the newly created 1.12.2-original version.

If you are using Forge

With Forge, instead of creating a new version, you need to open the Forge version JSON file with any text editor, and insert the following block just before the final }:

    ,
    "assetIndex": {
        "id": "1.12",
        "sha1": "98c430c16a705f18a58a281b27caabf3ef09d40d",
        "size": 169253,
        "url": "https://launchermeta.mojang.com/mc/assets/1.12/98c430c16a705f18a58a281b27caabf3ef09d40d/1.12.json",
        "totalSize": 130042857
    },
    "assets": "1.12"

Then, start the launcher.

If you are using 18w11a

Follow the same steps above, but name the version 18w11a-original instead of 1.12.2-original. The file you will need to download is 18w11a-original.json.
