NOTE: This texture pack works best with Xau's patcher, and MrMessiah's BetterLight/BetterGrass mods. Download links for those are below. Xau's patcher is only there to enable custom water/lava.

Looks awesome
I think the brick like cobblestone is cool
however, it could be a bit more exciting
the pumpkins could be a bit scarier
the could be more flamboyant
I would like cool monsters, if they could look epic, it would be complete

[Alexruben]

Need lots of work b4 any one will use it
Red stone looks very good, as does the dirt.
using better light is cheating though?

[Shreeyam]

Thanks for the great criticism, well, here's an update. Redone the ore blocks, they look better imo.



What do you think?

[Alexruben]

the grass needs to come further down the sides of the dirt
the cement in the brick is way too sandy
the wood is a bit too perfect
and finally THE SAND IS AMAZING


please?

[Shreeyam]

Ha ha, glad you liked it Alex. I'll try and do that ASAP.

AHH FORUMS EATING MAH POSTS

[alectro131]

Alex is right about the grass, but dont make it too far down or it will look weird on the hillside
Loving the ores, sand is awesome, cobblestone is awesome and will look even more awesome in a dungeon along with a mob spawner, which needs to preferably be an awesome looking cage
Please make passive mobs look epic cos i love weird sheepies

[NIN3]

Looks great. Keep up the good work.

[Shreeyam]

Thanks, NIN3! On a side note, nobody trying for MINECRAFT IMMORTALITY? That makes me sad

I've seen many texture packs and alot of them had the same thing and I always wanted to say what I think about it, but I thought it was normal. Does broken smooth stone always becomes smooth cobblestone bricks when broken? I mean if you compare bricks and cobblestone it looks the same only the colors are different, so it looks like grey bricks... But this is just my opinion if everyone else thinks its good I don't mind, but everything else looks amazing, good job

[TheAlmightyOwl]

Definitely using. Will feedback after a bit of a play with it.

Also, Shreecraft?

yes, i think that he's use the brick texture in different colours to make cobble.
also, i think people make the cobble texture (the smooth grey bricks) like that because when you make large structures, you make them out of an easy to get but also good looking material, cobble is often used and so this reskin make existing cobble structures look alot less like its made out of boulders, and so, better.

[Argothin]

How about tooncraft or something to that effect? It does have a slightly cartoonish look. Also, very clean textures too.

[DarkSider]

Also a name suggestion: Yamacraft..

[Shreeyam]
