This is where I will update my progress on the Science Friction texture pack. The texture pack is a 64x64 tile-set. I will get the pack files posted as soon as it is at least somewhat complete to where it will look okay mixed with stock 64x64 filler textures.
The textures in that image are the lightstone, glass, smoothstone, and halfsteps. The grating on the floor and ceiling of the hallway is the top/bottom of the halfsteps and the dark panels around the hallway entrance are the sides of the halfsteps.
Let me know what you guys think, and if you have any suggestions feel free to give them here. Also if anyone wants to help out with making any of the textures just let me know! I especially would like assistance on doing the items, weapons, armor sets, particles, and monsters. I am mainly focusing on the terrain right now.

1.
surface resistance to relative motion, as of a body sliding or rolling.
2.
the rubbing of the surface of one body against that of another.
3.
dissension or conflict between persons, nations, etc., because of differing ideas, wishes, etc.
It's just the name of the pack!
It was spelled that way deliberately because it is the texture pack I am creating for my groups space miner wars map.
New screenshot! I made the ladder, textured the wood door to look more like the dark spaceship cargo door style, and I even made a mock torch to look like a glow rod! You can also see the glass I am working on in front of the lava stream in back.
I like the idea for the restricted sign on the door, but shouldn't you make that the iron door? And make the wooden door more of a normal doorway through the spaceship for like sleeping chambers and hallpassages
Not trying to be a downer here.... but.... is it really going to look that good when it comes to natural environs? Nonetheless, I will be getting this when it's completed! :DD

As for the pack, it makes me think back to the Unreal Tournament and Quake era.
I am actually planning on making a 16x16 and a more cartoonish tech pack :smile.gif: Also to answer your comment Rikish I have used some Classic Unreal style textures for a basis on some of my textures, I do alter any and all textures that I may use just because not only do I not want to flat out use someone else's textures but very few textures are designed to already fit/look good in Minecraft lol.
Also yes, EVERYTHING will be techy. I have had constant debate with my server players on whether or not to keep grass/dirt/sand etc looking like natural elements or to make it a completely tech based pack. Being that it is mainly being designed for a space station style world I am building it is not really meant to look good on rolling hills and lakes, but rest assured it will all blend and look good.
If anything I have gotten positive feedback from players on my idea to base the world on being virtual and that dirt/grass/water/sand would look somewhat natural but everything is metal/fabricated underneath, like say smoothstone being metal plated so when you see a hill of dirt with exposed smoothstone it will look like a fabricated hill almost like the world is on a giant space ship or something... Oh god I am ranting again sorry.
Anyway let me know if you guys prefer a more natural environment or a more tech based environment.
Sounds great. How about making dirt somewhat techy and then make grass a grass/dirt combination. Then the ground indoors would look sci-fi and you'd still get the fabricated nature feeling outdoors.
You sir are a genius. I hadn't thought of using plain dirt as a completely separate texture before. It makes complete sense that dirt without grass could be a tech texture for indoors since grass won't grow on it unless it propagates from a nearby grass block. OH GOD that means that the block would be a tech based block and if you place them inside it would blend with the rest of the tech stuff AND if placed outside it would almost be like you placed a terrain generating block because it would look tech based at first but it would transform into a dirt/grass block!
I am now officially excited about the all new Grassland Terra-form Block™ lol I am working on this block right away!
New screenshot! I made the ladder, textured the wood door to look more like the dark spaceship cargo door style, and I even made a mock torch to look like a glow rod! You can also see the glass I am working on in front of the lava stream in back.
Rezol you are welcome to work on anything you want with this pack, any ideas you have or textures you come up with feel free to post them here and I will incorporate anything that will fit with the theme and of course anyone who contributes something that is put into the final pack will of course get credit in the pack!
Also that banner I think is great, if people want to start using it than go for it! Anything to generate more interest in it is always welcome.
iKaleb: I removed the particle effects for torches in the particles file :smile.gif:
I think I have a mockup of what the dirt block AKA Grassland Terra-form Block, will look like. A picture is extremely soon to follow. Also if you want any updates I will usually post everything I am doing on my Tumblr which is linked in OP.
I have to say I get excited watching grass grow now! It is actually kinda neat watching the techy Grassland Terr-form Block turn into a real dirt and grass block when placed next to other grass blocks!
Also feel free to leave comments and suggestions on my Tumblr about the pack and they will be read right away.
So I have the first stage of the Alien Tree done. For the moment I am going with the tubing idea for the trees. Let me know what you guys think you would like to see for these textures, after all I am making it for the players and not for myself. As usual the latest images are on my Tumblr. I am sure I have linked it enough times :smile.gif:
You can check out my Tumblr for updates to all my stuff here : http://alyxandor.tumblr.com/
Here is a screenshot of my research station hallway : http://i55.tinypic.com/23ro5kx.png
The textures in that image are the lightstone, glass, smoothstone, and halfsteps. The grating on the floor and ceiling of the hallway is the top/bottom of the halfsteps and the dark panels around the hallway entrance are the sides of the halfsteps.
Let me know what you guys think, and if you have any suggestions feel free to give them here. Also if anyone wants to help out with making any of the textures just let me know!

Retired StaffHowever, it's Science Fiction not Science Friction. Just a little heads up :tongue.gif:
The kind of spelling mistakes I'd expect from the average minecraft player.

How did you remove fire from the torch?!
