So, this is my first stab at this, as well as my first post here. Have at it!
Feedback is more than welcome - I want to know if you guys want more of this and I will start working on items, etc. I also want suggestions on tweaks or whatever. If you want a 16x16 version, or perhaps a higher res, lemme know.
Or, if you just want to tell me I suck and everything I do is horrible. I can take it. (Although, non-constructive insults will be completely ignored)
Ah, glad to see you guys like this! I definitely see what you mean about the sand texture, and I am currently trying to tweak that a bit. Should continue with this? Are people still interested in 32x packs?
Yes. A lot of people would flame you to death if you abandon this to goto 64x/128x tiles. Trust me. Most of the forumers prefer 32 and 16 over 128 and 64. Not to mention the textures are really good.
I'm digging it, except I think you might have to completly redo the sand. And I don't like the cobble but I almost never do anyways sooooooo.... Have a hAppy face you earned it :biggrin.gif: (it has a D for it's mouth because IMO it looks happier)
Wow, it looks great! One thing I have a problem with is the stone. its a bit too "busy" and it kinda puts me off. Other than that, great job :biggrin.gif:
Very good pack. Actually, the first that I've seen in which the iron block actually looks like iron. The diamond block is original, torches are cool, snow has some real depth, and that iron door is killer, it just screams "You shall not pass!". The fungi and flowers are the best I've seen, and so are the half-steps. On the other hand, the sand is kinda hypnotic, looks a bit out of place if you put something else on top, and clay looks weird, like it was wet.
I, for one, think 64x64 is the way to go. But that may be just me and my 1920x1080 screen, not everybody likes those hi-res textures and it is the feel of the pack which matters, not the level of detail. Still, if you could at least make a 64x128 version of the iron door, I would be forever indebted to you.
Gorgeous artwork and so jealous of your brick texture. Love the flowers, torch, mob cage, but especially the tnt! Great stuff. Most definately worth carrying on with this! Look forward to seeing the tweeks. :smile.gif:
[edit] Oh, and definately digging that snow...in that it definately looks like you could actually dig in that snow! :biggrin.gif:
I'm ecstatic you all love this so much - really encouraging and inspiring me to working further on this! Glimmar, I've seen your steampunk pack and I love it so much. You're incredibly talented so your words hold special weight. Thank you!
So, I think I've got a better sand texture going on in this one (check the OP for updated texture). Here's a new screenie:
Really liking this texture, and the new sand is beautiful.
Would it be possible to lighten up the smooth stone, or at least make the ores pop out a little bit better, though? When I'm down in my mine, the ores (redstone, especially) seem to blend in when it's even slightly dark.
I would definitely say you have a gift, very nice work. The new sand is really nice. Loving the tnt and the differing brick colors is gorgeous!
I never play snow maps but with biomes coming out I know who's snow I'll be using :smile.gif:

I'm looking forward to future updates.
