Hey Misa, I just wanted to ask if I could use a the sky and lightmap assets for my server resource pack, I'll be giving full credit for the work via our texturepack command including a link to this thread.
I looked for this on the announcements and the FAQ, but was unable to find anything.
Do you have a timeline for updating to a more recent release?
1.8 is around the corner and I know you're working on recovering your old data still. I check every few weeks or so for an update on your status, Misa, but I don't think I've seen anything conclusive yet. Can we look forward to anything in the late Fall? Early Spring? Next Summer?
something you may not have head but with the new snapshots there is a new feature that will give you all the blocks in their different orientations (It puts you in the spectate mode so you cannot interact with the blocks but you can "fly" or clip thru them. It you go to make a new world change <Game Mode> to Creative and then click on <More World Options> Then while holding shift click thru the <World Type> untill you get <World Type: Debug Mode> shows up then click on <Done> and follow thru to make the new world. That might help for some of the basic blocks, though Im sure for the connected testures you will have to do it another way.
Cheyron, I enjoyed your post showing default texture pack vs Misa's pack for the same scene. I can't stand using default when playing Minecraft. I have tried using many other texture packs, but I always come back to Misa. There is none better.
Did your thread get deleted? I posted in it wondering where your first post was with your download link, then an hour later it looks like the entire thread is gone?

The admins fixed it They are having a known issue with their spam detection filters and mine got caught up in it somehow. It's all good now. I'm just afraid to edit it again as it may get hidden again.
Have fun,
Les
Today 1.8 came out. So who do I think of on this long awaited day? Misa, of course. Your absence is deeply felt today, of all days. Wishing you the best on your life's journey, Misa.
I am a long time follower of this thread, a player of minecraft since official 1.0 launch (in which time I have logged an EMBARRASSING amount of hours :P), a former server host, and a devout fan of this texture pack through and through. I have tried DOZENS of other texture packs (in the realistic / faithful category) and, while there were some that had some beautiful textures, NONE of them (imo) held a candle to this pack. The depth of the work in this pack is astounding (number of random mobs, flora of connected textures, color maps etc), but the true genius of it is how seamlessly everything goes together like it was meant to be, while still qualifying as a 'faithful' texture pack.
A big thanks to pscof42 and lescard60 for your work, thanks to you guys I am able to still play this game, and as many reading this know (and some who may be afraid to admit :P) it has a very big positive impact on our lives....and we are many
But the main reason I am posting is to get something off my chest. Misa, I think your work is nothing short of genius. I think this pack should be the official HD texture pack for the game, and I think you should be head of game art for minecraft pulling in a 6 figure contract, and they should have done this years ago. (cut and paste all of my praise for Kahr, creator of MCPatcher, arguably more of a genius). This pack along with MCPatcher, (in my direct experience with myself and many other players), has taken minecraft to a whole new level visually. For many it was a tipping point to returning / sticking with / truly 'taking a shine to' minecraft and becoming / remaining long term players. Sounds like something that may have some sales / marketing / profit value eh Mojang? (Microsoft as of Monday for a cool 2.5 billion)?
Anyone know anyone in microsoft who can get these folks a job?
Best wishes and a huge thank you to you Misa. Your work has made so many people's minecraft experience that much better, which is worth its weight in gold on the karma market. Hope you get your pay out soon
I'd second that. Mojang should hire Misa to do their art, with her first act being a high res-texture pack (optional, of course). I'm in. Let's make this happen Internet.
I'm flattered, but I dunno If I'd want to do art for Mojang officially as a living. Though I do have some artistic skill, art isn't really one of my big pursuits/hobbies in general. If I were to get a job in game design, I'd actually prefer to be a lead designer--preferably for projects of my chosing. I'm most comfortable with conceptualization, documentation, mechanics and and their organization. But for me, even game design is more of a pipe dream than anything.
Providing the next move goes well and I've the opportunity, I'd like to go back to school and major in biology. Where I'd want to take that with graduate programs I cannot ultimately say. I'd like to get a feel for what's available/feasible before deciding on anything. That and what I'd like to do flip-flops way too much over time being idle. Right now, I'd ideally like to attend medical school and go into veterinary medicine, but a few years from now, who knows.
Who said "for a living"? Fix their art, collect 2 years of some of that sweet sweet cashola Microsoft shelled out and then go about your merry way fixing animals or dissecting them or where ever you were going with that.
MCPatcher for 1.8 is still in development, Kahr has released an 'alpha' type version of it (shaky and incomplete but works...for most..) you can find that near the end of the MCPatcher forum in a post Kahr made. That is why the options are greyed out. The link to the page is:
You can open the resource pack folder via the video options within the game. After you open it you can make a shortcut for it for your desktop to access later. For some reason it is not findable via windows (at least for me and sounds like you? =P )
You also need the 2 patches that fans of this pack have made while Misa is away. Lescard60 has made the links to these available on his thread along with a brief explanation on how to use them together found here:

I've been adding my own textures since the last update and decided to share what I've done for those that want to take a look.
I've been using pscof42's texture patch ( http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/2251774-x64174-misas-realistic-resource-patch-by-pscof42-updated-30dec2013/ ) and then been adding my own during the snapshots. Check out my thread if interested.
