Your Personalised Steampunk Minecarts
Here are three more completed minecarts (with appropriately coloured icons).


Wolfyau 'WB'


Bad_Wolf 'BBW'


Gestankfaust 'Cthulhu Head'

Rename your minecart skin to 'cart' and drop it in the 'item' folder in 'Glimmar's Steampunk' texture pack in your Minecraft texture packs folder (or your texture pack of choice). Make sure you put it in your active texture pack and not the 'minecraft.jar', otherwise everytime you run Minecraft it will get over-ridden by the cart skin in whichever texture pack you're using...meaning you won't see any change.

The icons are colour coordinated with the minecart of your choice, but you don't need to use them to get the cart to work. However, if you want everything to match perfectly, you need to paste these co-ordinated icons over the top of the existing cart icons on the 'items.png' sheet in the 'gui' folder. Use a graphics programme that can handle transparency, like Photoshop, Gimp or Paint.net.

I hope I've got close to what you wanted. Have fun! :smile.gif:

MightI say Cthulu looks awesome.

[see ReaperOfDeath's video above ^ ]

...and might I say I love that little sub and really love the lighthouse in the background. Also, what an awesome world you've generated!

Weird how you floated off into the sky at the end?!!

can someone please help me I have a Imac 24 inch and I downloaded the steam punk texture pack (wich looks awsome)
but if i want tot make a baloon for the airship it's invicible so... also when I find a pumpkin there's water and lava on it at the sides of it so if anyone can help me it would be really nice

p.s. My englisch is not so good beaucus i'm dutch and am not so good in englisch

Hi doedje3,

You need to run xau's 'MC Patcher' programme. This fixes all graphical glitches when using any HD texture pack. Link in my OP on page 1 just above the download links for my pack.

I'm not sure what you mean about the balloon. It sounds like you may have an early version of the airship mod if it's invincible.

HAHA!

I LOVE IT!!

So happy....think I'm gonna cry now....

HA ha! Thanks, mate, glad you like! You've done a lot more for me these past few months, seems a trivial little gift! :smile.gif:

Brilliant display, very 'car showroom'! Can I use the pic to advertise another promotional idea I've got for the carts? :biggrin.gif:

There might be a few more soon, when I get my act together! :biggrin.gif:

@ Tiger4Ruler: Good lateral thinking, mate! I didn't think of 'invisible' ! :smile.gif:

Yessir!

Also...here's the first glimpse into:

[see pics above]

That's come out of the wash remarkably clean and looks much better than I ever thought it would! You've done a superb job, mate, and got me really interested now! :biggrin.gif:

Thanks for the use of the pic. :smile.gif: I think I'm going to have a little rest for a bit...right that's a bit! Then get on with some more items, biome triangles, airships and carts...unless Notch pulls a fast one. :sad.gif: Wow! it comes to something when you kind of start dreading an update. I miss those heady days of Secret Friday Updates before I'd even started a texture pack thread.

hmmmm i have been thinking about something

Decided to make a quick video tour of my base on a SMP server I'm on. Hope you enjoy!

Sorry if it looks kinda washed out in places. It seems like somewhere along the line something happened to to video. Seems like the worst offender is the preview picture.

Wow! You've been busy, mate! Puts my building efforts of the past month to shame and I'm amazed how many uses you've put so many textures to. I'm glad you put this on the SteamCraft site too!

I ****** love Glimmar's sandstone. Though it does look odd where it forms naturally.
Monorail exterior.

Monorail and station exterior.

Just one request though Glimmar. You have a slightly lighter stone texture in your alternate textures, but no ores to go with it. Or cobblestone to match it for that matter. Can you pretty please procure those sometime? I can't realize a glorious steam-powered desert kingdom without them.

Asking nicely and making such marvelous constructs is hard to resist. You'll have to keep reminding me from time to time if I don't do it, but that's a sensible suggestion as those alternate stone textures are pretty pointless without corresponding ores and cobble.

Love the scale of your work, mate!

You're all very good to me already! ...I'll get big headed swanking around in a golden minecart. I'll be the master of all I survey in Glimmar's World. Hens will stand and gape as I pass. Wha...? They do that to everyone? I thought it was just me! :sad.gif:

Uuuuh....that´s perfect, I like it! Erm....and I´d like it :biggrin.gif: But with BaS on it instead of M.D.!
Ok, now here come´s the flattering, God of the themepacks, Master of Steampunk, Inspiration of Millions (at least of me^^) ... ok, that should be enough i hope :wink.gif:)))

Regards

Mmmmm? Aaaaagh! Mmmmmm! Oh alright then, but this is definately the last 'off the cuff' request for carts, etc. until I throw out some more special offers sometime in the future. I've got to do some other important things too, remember...like sleeping and eating. :smile.gif: Anyone else now will have to keep looking in to catch the moment I dish out some more personalisations. Wow! That's a cheap marketing ploy, but very Victorian!

Don't blame me if I forget, 'cos I really do need some sleep now before I do anything else. :sad.gif:

More screens!!

That looks better than my 32x32 textures! Are you sure you've not gone to 64x64 by mistake!

Quote from DonutSquared »

Pretty much joined this forum for the sole purpose of saying what an amazing pack this is. It's the first and only texture pack I've installed in Minecraft thus far and I can't say that I'm looking too hard for a replacement anytime soon. Awesome job.

Welcome to the forum, mate and thank you very much! :smile.gif:
