These are the texture packs i have taken stuff from :

• Sanguine
  Misa
  Faithfull 32x32
  One's Medieval Pack
  LB's photo realism
  Glap
  Cherry Picked
  Area19
  HD infinity
  and one or two of my own textures.

[ysu]

Not bad!
It's very nice that it's not over-done, so I can still sorta recognise the things.

What I don't like at first sight is the normal rock/stone texture, it's rather like concrete now.
Oh and the gravel.

[NeilPearson]

cheers ysu, as i said the smooth stone is the hardest to get. all the texture packs i have seen have horrible stone.

Ill have a play tomorrow

[NeilPearson]

updated to v1.01 check the first post

[ysu]

as I said, the smooth stone (aka rock) is still something I'm not quite sure of.
I got used to the previous one
The gravel could use a bit more colour.


by the way here's a rock texture I think I like:

(From here: http://desizntech.info/2009/10/10-free- ... -textures/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; )

with the gravel, it can be many sorts, but if we want to be able to tell it apart and well, I reckon we could use a 'colorful' sort of gravel, eg



It may worth a try to make a 64x texture, based on any of these or similar photos - just the stone/gravel.

[Santaria]

Ashtazaria loves the new pack. I'm still accustomed to Misa's 64x realistic pack. I did try yours though but the 32x tools and torches really detracted from the atmosphere for me and that's entirely my opinion.

[ysu]

LOL the torches looked a bit weird, but I thought that's just how it is
The tools I did not notice at all. maybe even 32 is a big up from the default 16px resolution eh?

[NeilPearson]

Torches are on the fix list, as are tools, but im keeping them as vanilla as i can.


here ya go YSU, best i could do with that Stone texture..... the gravel looks like M&M's to. (if you look closely the sword i have made is in that picture to!)

[Shonky]

Hmmm...that looks alright Neil, hopefully I'll remember to grab it later on and take a look.

[ysu]

can't see the m&m anywhere

in any case, yeah this texture prolly would need to go through a repeatable texture maker first. as I mentioned we used to use it for small background images for web pages in the olden days, when size was most important.

[NeilPearson]

Yeah i gave up on the M&M's and just took it out.

Anyway here is 1.02 whole list of changes. Updates to tools and water and what not, check the first post for more.

Latest link 404's mate

[NeilPearson]

Crap, stupid spaces.

Fixed now

[ysu]

thanks mate, downloading!

ps. everybody should use one of these texture packs from neil.
They aren't too intrusive and make things really nice - sometimes even easier to use (eg redstone repeater!)

Edit:
this latest is the greatest, so far!

Download it, guys, you won't regret it. It might even cure your cobble-aversion

[norbs]

Does it slow things down?

[ysu]

Does it slow things down?

Not for me.
Well, you can try it and switch if off later if it seems to cause performance problems.
But if you can run an average game, this should be all right, too, I reckon.

if you don't understand the installation instructions for the HD textures patch, just ask. It's pretty simple once you get it, but can be daunting first.

[norbs]

Terrific effort Neil.

[Santaria]

Neil baby, it's an awesome pack! May I offer a suggestion? No? Well, I'm asking anyway: Can we please have the obsidian much much darker than it is, like the purple in Misa's? That's the only thing holding back me changing to your full time. It made my obsidian flooring in my observatory... erm... weird.

Edit: and Glowstone a little lighter? These are mere suggestions. If you don't want to change them, don't

Edit 2: AAANNNNDDDD.... the bricks a little bit more Darker.

Edit 3: I'm sorry for being such a whinger

[NeilPearson]

Updated for san :P

[norbs]

Any chance the dirt could be made lighter? It seems very dark when there is a lot of it.

[NeilPearson]

Done that norbs.


Im waiting for 1.6 to get released then ill release what I have atm.

Raz has done some mods, and i have taken a few of his into the pack, the glowstone is aweosme.

here is a new sandstone texture i been using, what do you guys think?

[ysu]

that's beautiful, Neil

[Santaria]

I don't like it. The sandstone that you had originally was good.

[NeilPearson]

Updates!

[ysu]

thanks
