Can you change the sandstone texture to not have that top layer? It is really annoying for me since it looks like melting butter. :biggrin.gif:

have to agree..lol as much as I love the pack...the top of the sandstone is my biggest grief with it... could try doing some kind of decorative sandstone tile on top.. gonna avoid the shameless plug for my pack...*cough* seriously though.. I would like some pro tips from someone that knows what they are doing...lol check it out when you get a break from yours :tongue.gif:

Oh, I thought this was already changed, but I haven't released an update in a long time. XD
Anyway, yea I replaced the top later with what the bottom looks like so it's a solid block of sandstone bricks.

I'll look into your pack Grugsy. ^^

That is a niiiice looking sneak peak :happy.gif: I can't wait :happy.gif: Might actually end up staying up tonight to see how it goes :tongue.gif:

The sheer amount of 'Mod' Ideas is terrifying. We're going to see if someone can code us one so that all the large chests are linked and have more spaces etc so it's like the ones in game. We're going to see what we can get done in redstone for traps and such... Although it's just getting off the ground, this is a project that could go insanely well, especially if people are looking at it through a texture pack made of pure win :happy.gif: :tongue.gif:

I'm just finishing up some final touches so it can actually be released. I'll most certainly take any criticism or suggestions that you have in mind. ^^

I'm not quite sure on using the vanilla color of red as the bedding yet.

Quote from Martin_Toy »

I'll definitely be having a look once it's all done!

As for the bedding. I think the default red is too jarring, everything else is so bright and luminous xD If I were doing it, I'd probably experiment with some plain colours like white/beige but with some interesting patterns. :happy.gif:

That's possibly because I'm an idiot and like plain bedding anyway :tongue.gif:

Lol, It does stand out alot in my pack.
Maybe I should do something like a light blue or a brown/tan.

My bedding consists of my sisters ex-boyfriend's valentines day present blanket (That weird?), my girlfriends pillow, a sleeping bag unzipped, and 2 random blankets. I really have no style. =(
Then again, could be just the college life mentality...

would definitely go for something that doesn't clash with your main building textures, but not blend in to the point that it isn't noticeable either.. I have sooo many ideas going for it right now...but haven't the foggiest how to do any of them...lol

Give out the goods. ;D
I have several years of training in digital photography. There almost isn't something I can do or help you with on Photoshop, lol.

Edit:
Does anyone know what the block next to obsidian is? I can't find anything on the Minepedia about it.

Quote from Grugsy »

on the block...nobody knows at this point from what i have found...been on the forums all day...
and as far as the bedding, I would go with something classic and simple like egyptian cotton for sheet/pillow, and something either tan or light brown or both with a offset line pattern to make it stand out a little..think that might work well with your textures

Quote from Martin_Toy »

Oooh, light blue might be quite nice!

That really is an odd assortment of bedding xD

Thanks you guys for the assistance. Couldn't do this pack without suggestions. =D
So maybe a light blue bedding with a subtle brown patter overlaying it?

Eh, the new block looks like diamond embedded into some obsidian. So that's exactly what I did, lol

Edit:

Alright, I'm uploading it right now so when I can have plenty of comments and or complaints when I wake up. A joyous morning it shall be. xD

Quote from Martin_Toy »

What is the new block? As in, what exactly does it do? :tongue.gif:

We have no idea quite yet. It looks like a block of obsidian pouring out diamonds or maybe water... A fountain?

Quote from Martin_Toy »

Hrrm... Sounds a bit odd to me. But who am I to question the almighty Notch? :tongue.gif:

True enough, even though sometimes Notch doesn't seem completely sane at times.

I updated the pack to work with 1.3 (I think I got everything) and feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Quote from Martin_Toy »

nice work, I'll be checking this out tomorrow when I get back on my PC. My dad's one (currently using) is a massive pile of fail. :tongue.gif:

I know the feeling. XD
My girlfriends computer is a real work of art too, lol

so does this work with WG/BG, etc atm? Or do we have to wait for those to be updated as well?

ok.. tryin to try this but looks like the latest update broke the mcpatcher.

guh.. it's like every update this game becomes unplayable again.

today has NOT been a good day!

redstone doesn't show up, but otehrwise so far everything looks good. Haven't tried the new stuff yet

Works good in 1.3 :biggrin.gif:
Pictures---

I would have taken them in 1900x1080 resolution, but Those sizes are kinda big to upload. For pictures atleast.
Btw, I would love a custom portal :biggrin.gif:

OH and redstone works for me, You got the new update for HD patcher (compasses working in 1.3 now) right?
Oh and you spelled something wrong in the first post above the 128x128 pictures, you said deviantrat, Lol.
Im getting 256x256 and testing it.

If it worked before the update, then yes it should still work so long as the code wasn't vastly changed with the mod.

Yea, Notch doesn't seem to feel love for us more sophisticated folk. =D

Redstone should work if the new patcher did everything properly.

Very nice house and dock.
Quite flattering. ^^
I'll try and figure out how to get a custom portal.
I'll be getting to start construction on my city once I finish the 128x128 and convert the map, lol

Its bigger on the inside, Oh and try taking the example from misa's 64x64, Then make it bigger?
Testing the 256x256 Pack, If its too laggy, I hope not, Then I'll just switch back :biggrin.gif:
EDIT----
Wow, 10FPS @ 256x256, Whereas I get 30 @ 128x128 :/
Imma try it with all animations off to see if it improves.
