im making a texture pack named Simplex since its simple, but yet i try to make it complex
simple + complex = simplex sounds lame :sad.gif:
this is my 1st time ever really doing pixel art so, it might not be the best at first.
i dont have any pictures since i dont have much to show, since i just started
im going for a matte finish (but so that it doesnt look low quality) with some shiny things, like the half steps are shiny
I'm open to feed back, so make sure to post about what you like and what you dont.
please be constructive, saying useless things cant help me. Download v 1.1 (current to beta 1.3 - http://www.mediafire.com/?ru8eu885lcffk89 (some things directly taken from default so it could work, i might change them all to this pack once i get to play around with the new blocks)
^^^ the "new" lightstone, even though i never released the pack with that crap lightstone skin before..^^^^ New awesome torches, do they fit in..kinda...are they awesome

v.1.05 - current to beta 1.2_01
v.1.02 - made different types of torches, did more on items

I actually like this one.
Be sure to edit the front post and add pictures to drag in people who just view topics for pictures.
Keep up the good work! I look forward to this.

if you look closely at the clean stone you will find a face (which i didnt mean to do) and so i did all the ores as faces :biggrin.gif: but i will change them to actual ores, the iron ore is just like the face in the stone.
and ill change the adminuim from >:ohmy.gif: to an actual block
also sorry if my tree trunk looks similar to nurio's splotch block one, i didnt mean to copy it, but it cant seem to find another way to make it seem more different without ruining it.
an update on his town since he asked for it :biggrin.gif:
and im still having some trouble getting the right torch wood color -.-
the sand needs a bit more noise to it, from a distance it looks like it has none ^
Actually simplex is an existing word that is a counterpart to words like: duplex, triplex, and complex.
It just means "simple". :smile.gif:
I personally like texture packs to be a bit more textured, but I understand there are a bunch of people who like the clean look, so keep it up!
i know that simplex actually means stuff.
i just chose it since it kinda fits
(i googled it before i named it to see if it meant anything really wierd so i could use or not use it)
Is the sand supposed to have that block outline? I personally dont like that faint outline you added to the sand, makes it look a bit ugly in my opinion.

it seemed too plain for the sand from a short distance so i added the outline, i might take it off later

Makes sense, but it could be a little harder to see. It's a little too visible. It should be a hidden detail that one can't notice, but adds noise to it.

Amazing, thank you for the information.
btw the dirt isnt a solid color, it has some settle noise to it.
someone's tower showing off clean stone, glass, cobble and my crappy torches (which i will fix)
and i will add more noise to the dirt.
Iron door,
change or keep?i have changed the iron doors.

i like it more but i need opinions, since i like the light blue and white outline since it looks more vivid.
I can't wait to see the finished product.
i have to fix up the torches, bedrock and cacti then i'll get to the other half i didnt do.
