I wouldn't mind helping you update Plethora, if my participation is enough. I've added you on Skype too.

Updated my Coterie! Looks great too!

Hmm... I'll think about...

Alright, knowing that I got two sides on the matter, I'm going to have to resort to Z polls.

But just so you know, I'm far too busy today. I won't be able to get back to you guys until tomorrow... and I see that a new update is out... not sure what it is, but I don't have time to update it to compatibility. :/

Indeed, this is aawesome.

We need to go deeper. :I

My apologies for my lack of activity recently... I've been under the weather lately, just as Spring Break began. Of course, I will be working on school projects within the latter portion of the week, but before then I've been texturin' proficiently.

I present you with an updated style of wooden planks, along with the new, finalized, redstone lamp textures:


I have also worked on sand/sandstone-oriented textures as well, but I won't post a screenshot until I finish the job.

Awwwwww... those redstone lamps are way better then mine. I prefer the current planks, the criss-cross plank confuses me. I'd prefer one looooonnnng one myself.

There must be a way to satisfy both positions... Plethora is the only way...

I love the armour and the tools. Is this replacing Quandary or a pack based off it?

This pack was originally a "Best of" compilation of The Quandary Texture Pack in its early days... which was years ago. It wasn't much, but since ExtraNoise, the creator of the Quandary pack, was kinda mute and leaving his fans without an updated version, the fans came to me as their provider. Eventually, I gained some skills in pixel art, not notable, but decent, and I eventually called the pack "Quandary Reborn." One of the more notable works that I have made were the armor models, by which were based on the armor sprites by ExtraNoise and eventually made its way into Quandary, along with a birch texture I made as well. Then as Quandary Reborn was getting some hype months into it, I decided to incorporate some more of my own originality into the mix, but then the fans started to dislike it, since it wasn't the Quandary they expected to have. My contributors and I eventually came to the consideration that the pack had to become more independent... so we separated from the Quandary name, now called Coterie Craft.

Quandary was sent out to "spruce up the default textures." But rather than just "sprucing" them up... I wanted to go deeper... I wanted a "New Default," a goal many of you are well aware of. Of course, many of the textures from Quandary still exist, but that is only because ExtraNoise set the baseline. His work is the foundation of this pack. But times have changed, rather than refining his work, I now make an effort to produce my own work... problem is, it takes far too long to make... so you're kinda stuck with some of my old edits and additions until I get to it.

I, personally, want to remake the tools and armor models... but I do think they have became a bit iconic to many... so I might not make too drastic of a change... "New Default" isn't entirely a theme that I can come into thought with... it involves the fans of Minecraft to claim for what they want in a texture pack...

I hope this answersShortgamer's question as well.

Sorry about earlier, I just realized the mobs DO have textures!

Indeed they do! Many don't see it, but they are there.
