Well, I just made another item for a friend, and decided that I might as well add it to my sheet, just in case any of you want to use it.

Hey i thought i would try making a texture becuase i got bored, lol. i made one for black wool i hope its not too bad for my first.

Been using this pack since I've started, I don't know anything of steampunk or what it's about, but I like the look on this pack, can't play without it. Keep it up! :biggrin.gif:

Just wow at those pictures mate - wickid stuff

Thanks! I'm probably going to build an airship like everybody else now :tongue.gif:
Or perhaps I'll try a submarine :wink.gif:

Maybe a stupid question, but is there a way besides using the patcher to fix the nether blocks? Don't like making it my default texture. I like switching around between textures.

Also out of curiosity, what actually causes those HD texture glitches?

Right guys, I need some help. Im really dry on inspiration for the Leather armors, I cant think of anything, really. I need some ideas for it.

Dude, studded leather armor. Check out the textures in the Thief series for Garrett.

The Leather armor should be some sort of German WWI armor.

The Iron armor should be clockwork armor.

The Golden armor should be a gentleman's suit.

The Diamond armor should be Iron, but covered in magic glass.

For Steel armor, I will make a breastplate and a nice, steampunkish helmet. For Diamons, Ill make a Juggernaut suit. Not too sure about Gold yet, Ill take ideas for that aswell.

I think for leather you could keep it simple with something similar to a leather flight jacket like this type deal:

i love the way your texture pack looks, ive been looking for a good pack but theyre all butt ugly... :biggrin.gif: i think im using this!!! <3 thanks.

Hey all,
@Glimmar - love this pack man!few things I'm gonna personalize for my own use, but thats because I'm a picky *******. Started working on some new inventory skins, still rough but felt like sharing my progress. Trying to make it look more like a backpack:
{deleted to not hijack Glimmar's thread}
Here is a more standard wood/copper version:
{deleted to not hijack Glimmar's thread}
can't decide which direction i want to go with it. Might keep the cloth for inventory, wood/copper for storage/workbench and make a stone/metal for the forge... hopefully this doesn't turn into a full fledged texture pack...

First I'd like to say this texture pack is magnificent, it looks wonderful.

Second... To be blunt about it, the liquid blocks disappoint me. If you could add textures to show flowing water/lava, it would be so much better. Also the lava kinda looks weird but maybe that's just me.

Third, I noticed a few odd glitches which are incredibly noticeable and ugly as hell. The "pumpkins" are... broken. The view from inside them is fine, just the blocks themselves are a mess of textures. This applies to both the pumpkins and jack o lanterns. And the netherrack, oooooh man. It looks like running water from the default pack. Very out of place. When the netherrack is set on fire, like it inevitably will, it produces static, unmoving fire, and green smoke. It's really really awful.
I know there's some mod or something to fix that, but apparently it only works on the downloaded version? My computer can't really handle the downloaded version so that won't work for me.

I also agree with a previous comment, the smooth Stone blocks are a little bleh... I understand the issue that making them look more artificial will make it awkward to go underground, but maybe just make them a little less... grainy. It reminds me a lot of the default texture gravel. It just generally looks like it could fall apart at any moment. Maybe that's just me.

All in all, it's a really good texture pack, those are only single blocks out of many great ones.

P.S. @Above: Your inventory skins deserve so much :ohmy.gif: in a good way. Really cool man.

unfortunately the game doesn't play nice with larger textures without using the patcher. Until Notch makes some change to the game to work better with textures larger than the default size, there isn't much that can be done to fix the problems you mentioned.

And thanks!

Most of those glitches can be fixed with Xau's texture pack, linked to on the first page. It's really unfair to judge anything at sub-par conditions, but you do have some good points. The green smoke is an affect of getting the torches that distinctive green color: Can't have one without the other!

Didn't know it was a texture pack, but I still said "or something to fix that". I knew about Xau's thing already.
Xau's texture pack does not work on the online version, though, and I'm unable to download minecraft, so I can't use Xau's thing to fix it.

But about that green torch = green smoke thing...
Why not make all fire green? I'm sure that'd make sense seeing as how proper netherrack is supposed to look like metal. Maybe whatever metal the netherrack is composed of burns green.

There is the issue however of being lit on fire in lava. Red/orange/brown/bluh lava shouldn't light you on green fire.
Unless we go back to that metal burning green idea, where you could say the metals you are carrying are what burn green.

I also wanted to ask, because I have no idea where to find the answer to this, you have alt. block textures, like on iron and gold. How do I use those?

You edit the terrain.png, and move the textures you want to where you want them.

Or use... smaller textures...?

There is a 16x16 steampunk texture pack linked to on the first page, if you don't want to mess with the higher resolution packs. Otherwise, without patching, those graphical hiccups are unavoidable.
