A simple and elegant texture pack that still has a fair amount of detail.

I'm currently in the works of adding water+lava animation, and textures for all the new blocks!

Screenshots: Images don't do it justice, but man it still looks so nice.

Reformatting thread soon.

It looks pretty faithful to the original textures, good job with that!

One thing I notice is the pistons are a bit wierd when pushed out. I'm not sure how you could fix it but a darker edge could work. I really like what you did for coal though. Looking forward to how you do the other ores.

Like on the 'iron' grey parts?

Yeah for the sides. The part that extends looks like its a seperate block right now if you know what I mean.

Yeah I know what you're talking about, but it's hard to change and make the sides look right with the front, because the texture is used for the sides AND the extension . But nonetheless, I'll try and see what I can do~

edit: My attempt at a fix. Not sure though.

The iron ore reminds me about milk candy!

Lol most of the ores are probably placeholders - a lot of things are placeholders.

Can somebody help me with a banner? I'm trying to use this image, (Through imageshack) and make the click-through link to this forum, but the signature control panel says 'only one url is allowed' so I can either do the image, or just the link, but not both. Any workaround?




I already removed the click through url for imageshack but that did not work, it is counting the ....... is a url too.

[SofiJP]

If you have just the direct link to the image try setting the URL on that after adding it to your sig. Just dont put any text in the url / break lines or it will think you are making multiple. (I had this issue too)

EDIT: Liking the new textures by the way. The crafting table is a neat idea to have the tools in a belt like that.

[hugheskolton]

still not working, x.x

EDIT: And thanks for the compliment, I'm trying to make it interesting/still fairly vanilla. I'm probably going to go back over and redo some of the earlier ones, due to the fact that I'm getting better at making textures now.

[hugheskolton]

Just added sexy, sexy beds, some repeaters, stone bricks, mossy stone bricks, and other small stuff I forget.

[StrawHatUra]

its alright i guess.

also, stop self bumping.

[DragonAMiner]

I'm really loving this. I've always liked simpler packs that aren't just single-coloured blocks.

[edwardnale]

I think this might be my new go to texture pack, just finish it up. Also mossy stone bricks look a little wierd to me.

[hugheskolton]

Another update, mainly focused on wood. This one adds:
New pine texture, new birch texture, new jungle wood texture (to be revisited)
New planks for birch, jungle, and pine trees
Detector/powered rails
Edited, better mossy bricks
obsidian
and as always, other stuff I'm forgetting

Edit: Just added sandstone, and smooth sandstone, and bricks in.

Thanks for fixing the moss brick texture! It was really starting to bug me, now just do the cracked stone brick texture (along with everything else). Other than unfinishednessness, good work.

[abigsquare]

I'm liking it so far, keep going. Sandstone/smooth sandstone look a little out of place to me though, and I noticed you had a texture for a chest already, that texture goes into some kind of wrap in the texture pack folder.. don't remember where to find it, but I'm sure you could find it with a tiny bit of searching.

Minor update:
Added gravel (Likely will retouch later)
changed iron blocks
added gold blocks (will be retouched)
added diamond blocks (will be retouched)

I'm going to start working overtime to finish as many textures as possible, and I'll go back and fix/change/redo any texture that generally does not fit.

I like the new blocks, but gravel has a slight wave to it when tiled, and I feel that the diamond block should be made even more ornate than it is. Just my opinion.
