What if I edit the alternate glowstone texture so it tiles a bit better? Could we use that?
It could work... Looks like it needs a bit more darkness as well. Give it a go! The worst people are going to say is no. :wink.gif:
How are any of the other textures coming along? Started work on the enchantment tables or brewing stands yet?

I've been really busy lately, but I've worked on them a bit. Should have another update this weekend.
I never actually tried out the alternate glowstone texture. The coloring on it looks nice, not too sure about the actual shapes though. Lemme check it in game before I make any judgements though.
Edit: Yeah it needs a bit of work on the tiling like you said, but I kinda like it. The shape of the chunks may need to be changed a bit though. Still the coloring is really nice on it.
Also, I hate to ask this when you're already so busy with update after update, but could you possibly change the signs a bit or add an alternate texture for them? At the moment they look kinda off when used to make make shift chairs. The coloring is off and they seem a bit too... grainy? It's not really that important so it can wait until you're less busy if you decide to do it.
How does this look? I think we might actually be able to pull it off.
That looks brilliant! I think you're right. You've found the solution. Put it up for a vote and see what the people think! :smile.gif:
P.S. Damn you Kool! I really didn't want to make another post! =P

Think about it this way... that's one step closer to becoming a mining god like me!
So does it look somewhat natural in the nether? Or if not, is it at least good looking?
I do like the latest glowstone best. Buuut.. I wish you could make it more like a lantern, because that's what it'll mostly be used for. I want it to look nice on a post by itself, but also good together.
I know it's tricky because people will have differing opinions.
The pack is amazing though, I use it all the time. Keep doing what you need to do, it's great.

I personally don't think that it looks toooooo unnatural in the nether. It's not like a perfect rock, but considering it's a hellish world and that nothing there is particularly natural, it's not too bad!
Also, it looks pretty good as a light source for houses etc.
Anyone else see how the wavy lines make it look all distorted in the latest screenshot?
It looks curvy... and slightly strange... fits the nether, almost. A little rougher so it looks a bit more like a stone-type block (because properly it is), and it'll be pretty picture-perfect.

Glowstone 4
I'm liking that. It dose look a bit off in the Nether though. Since I'm also getting a "chinese lantern" type of feeling for that, why not a chinese lantern look?

Same. I mentioned it back a bunch of pages. I'd really like to see new Sign and Ice textures.
The new number 4 looks pretty good in artificial settings, but as Rik said, it does need to be roughed up a bit for it's nether formations. Right now it almost looks like a crystaline structure, so perhaps work in that direction?
Geez finding the right balance between natural and artificial seems to be next to impossible.
I personally vote for Glowstone 3, ableit edited a bit. It'd be nice if it could look a bit more glowy instead of a flat image of something that could be glowy...
Perhaps a but more dimension in the texure as well?
I actualy don't like Glowstone 4 at all... looks too much like a Chinese lantern for my tastes.
Also, about the new obsidian..
I liked the old colors and the new style better...
So what I propose is a blacker version of the new obsidian.
Also, would it be possible to make it look more reflective/shiny/whatever like you did with the gold texture?
Real-life obsidian is almost like a black glass in texture... I think it would look really cool if you could pull that off.
Can it be done?
You'd have to be more specific than that, and for me maps work fine.
Are you using an inventory editor (like too many items) to give you maps? If so, you'll only get map_0 which only maps the area around your spawn point. Instead get a crafting table and craft your own maps (all edge slots filled with paper, center slot a compass). That'll give you a different map which maps the area that it was created in, so basically the crafting table will be at the center of the map, although it won't be visible since the map's default zoom is too far out.
Here's a little something to hold everyone over until I finish the final Version 40:
Looks good! Keep working! You must be happy to know that new content stops in just a little bit! Are you going to put in phases for the moon? Also, 32x icons.png? :wink.gif:

New Glowstone 4
Keep in mind this image shows four blocks tiled together.

Also, looks very warped... like swirly and not blocky xD

I always thought of it as a cluster of light bulbs. In the Nether I pictured it was the same type stuff found in Norfair (Metroid reference).
