This is my texture pack that I work on for funsies. I have been posting my texture packs elsewhere but decided to post them here to stay more organized and maybe for your enjoyment too. I am not a graphic artist, so don't except fancy artwork. I know some of these ideas have already been used, so you don't have to tell me. All comments and/or requests are gladly welcomed, but trolling is not.

Venture Industries Texture Pack

By: jmcneely

Description: Venture Industries Texture Pack isn't aimed at throwing out all of Minecraft's textures, but instead adding some kick to it. It mainly adds Venture Bros. related themes and other things that I find humorous or just badass.

Also includes splashes.txt with Venture Bros. related texts inside.

Download most recent version.

Screenshots:

Spoiler:

Sun & Moon


Watermelons

Lightstone

Scissors

Apples

Bic Lighter

Enderpearls

Light Saber from Episode Tag sale You're It.

Cows (No, I didn't cheat to get them all in there, Cows are just weird like that.)

Inventory Background

Breaking Meter

Paintings

Rainy Day Play Chest(Dibs on the pack of googly eyes)

Brewing Potions

Eye of Ender

Erlenmeyer & Volumetric Flask(IDK why you would be throwing a Volumetric Flask)

Spiderpigs (Brighten for visibility)

Iron Golem

Here are some examples of the Venture Splashes






These are not all the changes, I am still working on getting more screenshots for display.

How to Install Texture Pack:

To install, simply drag and drop Venture Industries Pack.zip into .minecraft\texturepacks. Next start up Minecraft, when at the start menu click on Mods and Texture Packs. Finally, select Venture Industries Pack.zip and click done. That is it, you're done.

How to Install Venture Splash Texts:

Requires WinRar, WinZip, or anything similar.

To install the venture splash texts, first open the texture pack .zip and then open title folder, there should be splash.txt inside.
Then, Open minecraft.jar (located in .minecraft\bin) and open title folder.
There should be another splash.txt, this is the one we want to replace.
Drag the spash.txt from texturepack\title to minecraft\title.
If you didn't delete splash.txt from minecraft\title then you might be asked to replace it, allow it.
After that, delete the META-INF folder.

That's it, not that hard was it? Now, when you see the title screen the random text will be Venture Bros. related.

Yes, its a terrible shame. I'm still looking for another place to put my files, but with school and all that I have been rather busy. If anybody knows a good website where I can upload files for free, please help.

Media Fire

[jmcneely]

All links should be working now.
Sorry @echonite, I already signed up and uploaded all my files on 4shared before I saw your comment. But I will keep Media Fire in mind just in case 4shared get sued too.

EDIT: Just saw how nice and neat echonite's page looks. It motivated me to finally add spoilers and shorten the page. Also, added a download link at the top for most recent version.

Sure do, you made a house in Europa right?

[jmcneely]

Updated texture pack to 1.2. Not much has changed but now that we have ferns in jungles and the bush texture looks funky in jungles I changed the texture to a jungle like plant. I might play around with the texture some more.

Thanks, it means a lot to hear people enjoy it.

While I'm here, I have decided to release the MC1.2 2nd edition. I feel like a rushed to release a 1st edition for MC1.2 and missed a few things I meant to add. The MC1.2 2nd edition doesn't change much but the Iron Golem's face to look like a bad-ass, he looked too weird to me before. I actually want to make him look like G.U.A.R.D.0., but have no clue on how to get the body just right. The only other major change is I moved the breaking meter to the middle of blocks instead of the top. If anyone doesn't like the new placement, It is no problem to change it back.
