I'm not really sure if there's a point to this topic outside of the following.
-An easy place to get updates on the painterly pack in the same place we look for updates on other minecraft skins.
-Talk to other people on the forums about the skin, or modding the skin.
Because this topic is updated by someone who is really obsessive about checking the painterly pack site for updates and not by the creator of the painterly pack...
-we can not give praise or criticism that's directed at the creator of the pack.
Telling each other to shut up and ego tripping over who is right and who is wrong is kind of stupid and derails the topics we could be talking about. Such as talking about our own personal changes we've made to add our own tiles to the painterly pack. Maybe we could get some of those changes going here. Form a collection of tiles or whatever. Then maybe someone could be like "here's this tile I made to complement the painterly pack" and then we can all be like "oh that's good, that works really well" or like "no I don't like that, I don't think I'll use that." Or maybe even be like "that tile looks cool, but I have some constructive criticism." But then, like... not fight about it.
I understand the compulsion to type up silly replies to people's post when there's SOMEONE WRONG ON THE INTERNET. It's totally what I'm doing right now. Mostly to help this Jamsponge guy cool your jets and refocus the conversation back on topic. I understand the need to be right, but just let it go. Somethings you just have to drop.
i do have a bad habit of fishing reactions out of people. well done sir. i agree on the whole making this a modding the painterly pack thread.
NO THERE IS NOT GOING TO BE A 32px VERSION OF THIS PACK. STOP SPREADING RUMORS THAT 'THIS IS GOING TO HAPPEN' WHOEVER KEEPS DOING IT. THIS WOULD TAKE HUNDREDS OF HOURS I DON'T HAVE FOR THE BENEFIT OF A COUPLE PEOPLE WHO HACK THE GAME WITH MODS TO FORCE IT TO WORK, AT THE COST OF ACTUAL CONTENT UPDATES WITH NEW TILES AND STUFF, WHICH I WOULD RATHER DO AS THEY BENEFIT EVERYONE AND DON'T REQUIRE REMAKING OVER 400 GRAPHICS FROM SCRATCH.
32px. IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. EVER. I THOUGHT I MADE IT CLEAR IN THE FAQ. THERE ARE MANY PERFECTLY LOVELY 32px PACKS TO CHOOSE FROM. TRY DOKUS OR SOMETHING IF YOU MUST HAVE 32px GRAPHICS, IT IS QUITE NICE. THERE IS ALSO A REALLY PRETTY MEGAMAN LEGENDS ONE. THAT'S PRETTY NEAT TOO. THE WORLD IS YOUR OYSTER. THANK YOU.
He also added a link to the Mod Installer. Please stop arguing too- I want this to be a nice thread full of praise and constructive criticism... At the moment, the karma's all... messed.
While I can see his point about remaking all the tiles, and it is up to him to simply say "I will never do a 32x32 version", making a post entirely in RAGE CAPSLOCK is a bit over the top. Also just for the sake of pointing something out, it doesn't take a 'hack' to make a 32x32 tileset work, it's drag & drop the same as replacing a 16x16 set. If he's referring to the animation fix, if you aren't intelligent enough to double click an exe, I don't think you should be playing minecraft in the first place.

Okay, but who are you talking to? He's not here to see your opinions on his work, be that the pack or his website. If you want to make a 32x32 version of his tiles though, that'd be cool. You should do it, since Kas obviously isn't going to do it.
I've personally tried to make a 32x32 tile set. It was liberating to have the higher res, but because of the item glitch, where certain items have holes in their sides, I was disappointed in the lack of full support for 32x32 tiles. So I just dropped the idea. I fully understand that attitude, especially with something like the Painterly Pack which has a very official feel.

Wow... just wow. Some people express appreciation for your work and ask for a 32p version, and this?
Think of all the options you already have in 16 format. He would have to redo all of those into 32.... Then any new textures he puts out he would have to make them in both 16 and 32 formats. It's not like he gets paid to do this, nor do we pay for it. So he can do whatever he wants / has time for.

Then how about we all tell him to make a donate button, which then we can pay him to do this?

I agree completely. There's a way to articulate that without CAPS-ing up the joint, though, heh.
"I'm not making a high-res pack. 16x16 is the native resolution of the game and it's all I intend to create for."

There is a donate button on the front page, pushed quite far down by that wall of capslock text.

I was stating an opinion, not addressing any specific individual per-say. As others have said (myself included), we appreciate his pack and his work that he has put into said pack. Expressing our interest in a 32x32 version is just that, an interest. Nowhere in my statement did I say I was going to make a HD version of his pack, so I don't know where you got that from. As far as the item glitch goes, it affects very few things.
As stated prior to this post, he should of taken a different stance, there's a thing called tact, and it applies to -anyone-, even someone who's given back as much as he has to the community.
Another update, I think Kas is pretty mad at the moment...
Wow, I made what I thought was pretty blatantly an informative blurb followed by a silly-worded reccomendation paragraph about 32px textures and apparently everyone thinks I'm apparently raging out or something? I don't even know what to make of that other than it's depressing and apparently I overestimated people's ability to take dumb internet posts with a grain of humour. Was it the caps? Maybe if I do this one in lowercase (but then nobody will actually read it.) Apparently a blatantly ridiculous capslock post with silly comments and some explainations means I hate you all and am VERY ANGRY because of OMG CAPS, or something. I dunno. I'm still pretty fuzzy on the whole thing.
I thought it was funny. Now I'm just sad about the whole thing. INTERNET IS SERIOUS BUSINESS apparently. Online is a lot more fun when you don't try and assume everyone is EXTREME EMOTIONS drama-analyze the hell out of everything peeps. Sometimes a silly post is just a silly post and you can seriously stop sending me emails asking why I'm apparently on some kind of warpath/diva freakout, because the fact this is how I apparently feel about this whole thing is news to me. :smile.gif:
P.S. there's a small update tomorrow.
At least we're getting an update- always good new I suppose.
Am I bad person for finding that funny and laughing at it?
It's not "Divatastic" or bad for him to put a caps notice on his site.
People are bugging him for a feature that DOESNT WORK PROPERLY WITHOUT EDITS AND MODS TO THE GAME THAT WILL TAKE LOTS OF WORK TO CREATE.
That's stupid and sure, if you want that, go find a 32px pack. Painterly is NOT a 32px pack, he doesn't WANT it to be one, and he is tired of being ASKED for it to be one.
Sorry I'm kind of like that... I just try to keep the thread as ordinary as possible. I don't want to screw it up and get it locked, since Duffman will never let me back in. Sorry again.
I think I worded that wrong. I meant I was trying to support you, in trying to get the other people to calm down.
wow this thread has been flametastic lol anyway i really like the painterly pack. I'm thinking of using it if emperor doesn't release his pack soon >.<
This has to be one of the ugliest texture packs I've seen.
That's not cool, man. I'm sure he puts a lot of effort into his work; creating his site alone had to be quite the undertaking. As someone who sometimes inserts foot in mouth, take it from me that the level of vitriol is uncalled for and reflects more on you than the other person.
I'm sitting here wondering just why Painterly and Notch couldn't come to some sort of agreement so painterly would do the official textures. I mean... it's awesome looking stuff here.
Not really digging the Halloween orange leaves since... sorry but I've never seen grass that looks like that. Brown/tan sure. Orange? Nup. Oh well, there's about a billion other options!
So we're good.

Love this pack, and love the constant changes made to it too =)
