After spending a day working on CTM.... This is what i came up with... maybe this would work as a sort of new master CTM type of thing? I'd really like people to edit it and add more uniqueness to it, especially the sandstone, cobble, mossy cobble, and netherbrick. I did start this off of SMPrevival's CTM thing, if any of you see the similarity. As I said, please add stuff to it, and I also need someone to write the properties, as all I can code is simple LAU in tekkit. A few flowers and the grape textures are something I'm using for myself, Feel free to take/use them for the pack if you really want to.
Ohhh very nice! I'm going to grab a few of these and add them to my CTM pile.

Are you actually allowed to be giving permission like that? I know that with credit Misa won't mind her sugar cane being used, but I don't remember who made those grapes, nor if they allow re-use. You really need to think about. Do they allow it or not? If not, you shouldn't be posting it let alone giving permission behind artist's backs. o.ô

Like I said... I'd be careful. Personal use is one thing but, I'm seeing textures from packs that I'm not sure are legally allowed to be posted.
Also, Ihave to say, overall the CTM looks ok, except that where one of the cobblestone textures just got flipped. It tiles by merging into the stones next to it...kind of looks like a bad mirror image to me. I don't mean to be rude, just being honest. It doesn't seem to reflect the quality I've come to expect from Ovo's pack in general.

The sugar cane is not from Misa.
Our Textures
Misa's Textures
The grapes and the flowers are one thing, but bear in mind, he was simply posting the CTM format he recieved from SMP's Revival. He was only using that file as a placement for some of the CTM textures from this thread.
**I've taken a look at SMP's texture pack and it's 16x, so these flower and grape textures must be either be from another texture pack, or he made them himself.***
Sari, just so we're clear on a few things, this CTM.png is not associated with this texture pack, nor will it be included in the final push with our connected textures support. I appreciate your efforts in trying to authenticate each and every texture we use though, but let's not crowd the thread with "he said, she said" issues. If it comes to that again, and you feel that one of these textures is stolen, send me a message.
As for the cobblestone issue. With a proper method, that shouldn't be a problem. But I agree, it does look odd in the CTM.
In conclusion, ownership of textures and the right to protect them I'm sure is well understood in this thread.

Lohugo, I think the best thing I can say is "oops, my bad."
I wasn't trying to make accusations, just being overly careful while being visually confused. I will take your word for it though and if I honestly feel like something is amiss I will indeed let you know privately. I don't mean to raise brows or risk causing drama or unneeded questions. Sorry for the confusion.
Gotta say though, that CTM sugarcane does look great. :3

Not a problem Sari. We're all just concerned with keeping the integrity of this texture pack solid, so I can completely understand where you're coming from. Glad to have you on the team.
Yes, the grapes and some flowers are from another pack. Like I said, I was just using them as a placeholder until something better comes up.
EDIT: Since the grapes are from an old pack I loved and miss, which hasn't been updated since 1.8, I'm waiting on permission to actually use them for the pack itself, of course if thats ok with Pythros/Ovocean.
Two of the flowers are from LBphoto realism Asian add-on. These are just place holders, and are what I've been using these days in my personal CTM, and they shall not be used or added.
I can see where you guys are coming from though about the origionality of some CTM, ie; Some flowers, the grapes, etc. I do think i is very important that we keep the pack oriogional, as if we just added any texture, it'd become Ovo's rustic Remix.
I have an old file I found in my Ovo's Rustic 1.7 zip, take a look.

I really like it, good job!
Did you make all of the flowers and grape vine?
Maybe if you added some gradient shadows and made the outlines less noticeable. cos don't get me wrong it's great, but i can see that you used Misa's logo as a template and that kinda distracts me :L
You can improve it, too. I just made a basic one so we something (:
Thanks so much for finishing those! Could you possibly make the eyes look a little less emo and maybe add some color to them?
These look amazing though.

If you'd read my next post, your question would be answered. "Since the grapes are from an old pack I loved and miss, which hasn't been updated since 1.8, I'm waiting on permission to actually use them for the pack itself, of course if thats ok with Pythros/Ovocean.

Just send him a message if we can use the diamond. Hope to get a reply soon
But Ovo? You don't use animation textures? They make the world quite less static, like watching your own fireplace
Yeah about this diamond, my question may have seemed to mean implicitely that we could use it if we had authorization of the author, but no, we should avoid using textures that aren't done specifically for this pack.
I've borrowed Johnsmith's water and lava around v0.3 and as we can see, it's still here in the pack making me ashamed that I still haven't taken care of it myself. If I had refrained from borrowing a good texture back then, I would have been forced to do them soon in the process and we could now enjoy a better fitting water and lava.
I don't use animations for technical reason but I totally agree that they are an improvement and invaluable in getting the feeling of a living world. The technical reason is that Minecraft is running terribly bad on my 'old' PC, and worse with each new version, so I'm avoiding extra things like animations that would put even more strain on it. Though, I have adopted the lightweight blinking pig & chicken animations by Astro1305 (if I'm right) in my last pack upload.
finally finished my farmer.png!!!!! i wasn't sure what colour of shirt i preferred on him, so I made alternates. Feedback would be appreciated, cos I'm still not sure about the eyes, and if anyone wants to edit it themselves then be my guest:

If this was photoshop work, I'd tell you to alternate your burn settings for the skin. You've got a lot of red in all the shadows which tells me you would have used the burn tool set to "midtones" (again, if this was photoshop). If you can desaturate the red out of those shadows and bring in some brown or dark tan, that would alleviate the "zombie" look people are referring to.
The hair looks vastly contrasting, is the dark vs light a hat? Or shadow? If it's shadow, you might want to make the transition a narrow but tall ragged transition, thus emphasizing that it's hair by the texture of the transition between light and dark. If it's a hat, you might decide on adding a hemline and a few seams to indicate it's cloth and not hair. Maybe even a little durpy bit that's some floppy point laying down?
Ohhh very nice! I'm going to grab a few of these and add them to my CTM pile.

Nearly everything is there. Did you look?

After I looked at a second time right after I posted my comment, I was thinking it did look like the zombie skin. Now I know why

Would make great zombie alt's. Very nice work

Those look awesome.
Amazing work Magma! I think the our next goal is to have more mod support for the pack.
