I love Misa's 64x64 Realistic Overhaul texture pack. I admit I'm into nice graphics, but I know that nice graphics do not make a game good. The game play is what counts and if the graphics look nice too then its just icing on the cake.
I said "yes," but my "texture pack" is just edited glass and wood. Unless I'm doing a bit of research in which case I use invisi-stone (stone, cobble, dirt, etc. textures removed and replaced with a colored outline).
While I don't think graphics make a game good, I have to say that I cannot play the Minecraft without my texture pack. (That's why I made it...!)
The default bright colors and sharp pixelated edges just give me a headache during extended periods of play. Going for something that looks a bit more natural, smoother and desaturated is just physically more comfortable for me to sit through hours on end.
I didn't, until I realized I could make cobblestone look better than some rocks thrown into a concrete block and left to sit.
So right now, I have a mixture of vanilla and Painterly textures (98% the latter) and I sometimes switch to something holiday or season-appropriate.

It is the equivalent of saying
"We should add drug trafficking to the game to attract more Mexicans. I'm not saying that I'm racist, it is just that most Mexicans traffic drugs."
Technically yes, a couple of times I've used both the default and a customized version of Painterly Pack. A bad side effect of switching on and off from the regular texture pack and Painterly's is going "Wait WTF is this?! Oh it's flint..." quite often. :sad.gif:
I'd love to see the default texture pack be able to work with HD packs [BrightCleanse being a very high priority when that happens] sometime in the near future though.

Yet ANOTHER engineer in the world of Minecraft. w00t
I'd use one of the nice-looking HD texture packs if the texture pack switching built into minecraft supported it. I don't feel like an alternate low-res texture makes much difference, other than for a specialty multiplayer server -- Bikini Bottom or some such thing :smile.gif:

BUT I WILL NEVER USE HD EXCEPT FOR SOME VERY FEW EXCEPTIONS!!!
They always seem to not fit in with the blocky nature of minecraft. So good looking, for each individual block, but i can't stand them personally.
Texture packs don't seem to provide enough for me to be bothered .
I haven't found any... haven't really looked either
It feels like cheating, or insulting notch if I go beyond 16x16

Only 2 modifications in game and it looks awesome!!
