I was wondering about the armor. In the inventory it appears skinned, but whenever I'm wearing it, it is the minecraft default. Is this a glitch with my game, or does the skin not apply to the armor when it is worn?
Lol! After the update I'll put them in the boutique in Glimmar's Emporium! I'd love a range of outfits to choose from. I've just been very brave and visited 'PipeWorld' and I was distinctly under dressed! My first visit to a Minecraft server online ever!! It's an awesome place and very nice citizens. Gents in fact. I was just sad I couldn't stay longer, though my nerves were raw trying to keep up with the speed typing! :biggrin.gif: It was cool to walk down the stairs featured in your vid!
It was a privilege and an honour to have our world graced by your presence Glimmar. Triskelli, Kendawg and I were on a Skype chat when you joined and we were like awe struck by your 'celebrity' status, at least in our eyes you are a celebrity...LOL
If you thought what you saw was awesome, when you visit next you will literally crap your pants. Here's a funny story about how it got that way.
Death_Role40 and I were busy building Grand Central Station (GCS), at the top of the central column you walked down. Now as some of you know, I run this server on my home PC, the same PC I play Minecraft on. Yes, it is a beast of a box, but it still has laggy times. So I went in search of articles on how to make the fastest Minecraft server available.
What I ended up with was a Ramdisk to hold the entire server. Currently PipeWorld is a bit shy of 40MB in size, including the jar files, all the plugins and other supporting files. So I fired up a ramdisk, made it a hard drive and viola, the server runs spectacularly as compared to before!
Well there is this wonderful tool or plugin called VoxelSniper which allows you to edit blocks from as far away as you can see. One of it's other functions is the ability to spawn mobs of whatever type you choose. PipeWorld for some reason doesn't seem to be friendly to squids and I just love me a squid. Standing atop my tallest tower surveying my world before me, which includes a large ocean, I set about spawning me some squishy squids.
Click....hmmm...click....hmmm...click, click, click...wtf over? click click click click click click click click click click click click click click click click...SON OF A B!@#%...why is this damn thing not working anymore!?
Well I think Death_Role40 who happened to be standing near the shoreline when the epileptic seizure of my right mouse button finger hit, said it best...OCTOACALYPSE!!
What I failed to realize until it was too late was that the squids, 3 per click mind you, were spawning just fine, but I was too far away to see them. Minecraft doesn't render mobs as far as it renders blocks and I found out why. The server went into a death spiral tail spin into unresponsiveness.
So after hours of working on the train station, I, in my infinite wisdom brought the server to a crawl. Death_Role jumped out, I jumped out and I proceeded to stop the server and just to be thorough, I stopped the ramdisk...and that's all she wrote boys and girls. Yes you guessed it. The ramdisk was NOT setup correctly and DID NOT SAVE any data changes. We lost approximately 4 hours of RT work.
But from the ashes GCS was reborn this morning and it is better than before. From my manor house, affectionately called Terabythius, I look up at GCS and it literally takes my breath away.
Can't wait to see you again Glimmar! Mi Mina-artesanal Casa es Su Mina-artesanal Casa
oh god, you made my day! just promise me it will have red hair :tongue.gif: (No i am not a red head, i just like red hair :tongue.gif:)
and i check back way to many times a day, so i never miss a thing :biggrin.gif:
Most red hair comes from the Emerald Isle and we all know what 2 things the Irish are most famous for right?

I love this guy, Gestankfaust, and many thanks for doing all the other character skins. This one almost looks like me though, cos' I have a mustachio (a bit older and greyer than that. Lol!). Can I use this guy to represent me online for now? If someone else is using it then I'll customise it a bit. :smile.gif:
I've just managed to set up my machine to allow my youngest son to help me catch up on Glimmar's World and he has a downloaded steampunk a skin. Anyway, until I'd worked alongside someone else like this, and after visiting PipeWorld, it suddenly made me realise the importance of how we're represented to others. Having only ever single played Minecraft, it didn't seem anything to bother about before!
I'd tried before, repeatedly infact, to set my machine up for family LAN play, but only discovered over the weekend that my onboard 'Atheros' ethernet controller was the problem (would allow me to connect and no-one else, but after a while I'd lose connection with the router and get thrown off!). Found a more recent driver and it's been a dream this past 24hours and it's so much fun having my son do all the hard work. It's only working alongside him I realize just how slow I am! So hopefully I might get to do some more meaningful updates to the map on page 1 and still work on new textures. So yet another apology for not working on the update this weekend. :sad.gif:
Sadly, I can't seem to get the 'extreme' art and punch-a-pic mods to work multiplayer. I've not checked the threads on them, so I'd be grateful for your expertise on this Tiger! Therefore, at the moment, it may only be possible to put a lot of the paintings I've done to use in single play. I will include as usual the standard 'art' file in the pack and you multi- players can just swap around the most useful paintings for your builds onto the standard kz.png file.
Now to read and reply to more of your posts. Flip! This thread has been busy this weekend with some much appreciated comments and wonderful vids!
If you want to edit it...do so it will. I can also tweak it for you don't have the time. Either way, all of these skins are for free use by anyone, anywhere. I didn't make the gentleman I and II very "dirty", but adding noise in the MCskinedit works well to do that (30-40 works best on the slider)

Anything in particular, I'd have a hard time working off of just that. Any specific item, anything I could do to it to make it fit better in your opinion?

As you wish. Lets start with the swords;
None of them kinda look like swords expect the stone sword. Make them more sword-ish. For example the wood sword is a crowbar and the gold sword is a gold ?
Second the pickaxes is all rockets? harpoons? Change it to something that atleast looks like a pickaxe
And for the hoe and shovel, they didnt match the rest of the set. Make something that matches the rest of the texture
Some people may like it but i didnt. Other than that this texturepack is a

Ah, I just looked through the user-item pack, and saw what some of your complaints were;
The only items I actually made were the ones on this sheet.
Speaking of that, I made my friend some new items lately, they aren't much steampunkish, but I'm thinking of putting them up as an option anyways.
Once on Minecraft, I got myself stuck having to fend off a creeper and two spiders in the middle of nowhere with a FLOWER on hard difficulty... and I survived.
Simply stunning! I squealed with excitement when i saw both your skins. They are absolutely fantastic.

No, did you patch it? If not, do. The link to the patcher is on the front page of the thread.
Anything you would like me to change? I can't improve if I don't have any critique.
Weapon textures plx. They dont fit (my opinion)
