This pack is truly breathtaking. The font however for the Realism pack i feel should be changed, as it appears to be more suited for the RPG pack. Just a suggestion, anyways keep up the good work!
Is there any way to change the chat text back to the default text manually? I love this texture pack but the text included in it is very hard for me to read.
This mod is great but I have a few issues/questions.
First, my specs are:
HD 6950 2GB
8GB RAM
i5 2500 processor
Basically mid to high-end hardware.
So how I did this:
1. Delete .minecraft folder
2. Install Optifine 1.2.3 Multicore on fresh Minecraft.
3. Download GLSL shaders and run the installer.
4. Run the x256 and x512 packs.
Now, I am having issues with the 512 pack. I boot in-game and sometimes it works, but usually it says Minecraft has crashed because of lack of memory. No issues with the x256 pack when I run it.
Also, how do I get the bumpmaps/shader files to work? I copy-pasted the shader files into minecraft.jar/shaders and then put the terrain.png files in the texturepack .zip, but all that did was make my screen blue with the HUD and have black lines running across the screen. Is there a step-by-step for this?
Other than that, this is the best texture pack I've ever seen! I can't believe modding has come this far since the Alpha days.
I just love this pack, my favorite ever and I've checked out a lot of packs. Though I can't wait for it to be updated I shall wait patiently, take your time so it looks awesome!
2048M is way too low for a 512x pack. you want to set it to at least 4048M and download the batch file Scuttles' posted on the front page.
as for the shaders Dax-Nitro said you needed to modify the actual files yourself to allow the use of terrain maps.
Wow, thanks! So I should manually allocate memory using the posted fix, as well as run the BAT file afterwards? The BAT file has 2048M listed, should I modify that at all?
And I'm guessing that means that the terarin/shader files are "developer-only" type files.
Edit: Also, I noticed the moon and sun textures are the default ones.
yes do all that, and no you shouldn't need to modify the batch file
well it didn't work for me and it doesn't work for allot of people; gives the "out of memory" error
I'm dumb, I was using the RPG x512 pack. The Photorealism pack + Ether Sonic's Shaders works fine with 2048MB. I get 25 to 40FPS using both with 8GB RAM + i5 2500 + 6950 2GB.
Hmm... I wonder where Scuttles went.. I'm surprised to see how much it improved since the 1.3_01 (I joined at 1.2_02, but basically started to play (and post) at 1.3) Version.
I hope he still remembers me.
----EDIT----
(From people who jumped on the thread at about the same time I did)
Just for some nostalgia, Scuttles:
I use 128x128, Simply because I love my FPS
I get 15FPS on 256x256.
You my fine man, Are too epic. Too epic....
For that, You get all the HQ diamonds I mined
(If you cant count, Its 10. Lol)
cant wait to see the changes.. use a lot of your stuff in my personal pack... been busting balls on my own 128x pack the last week...and now... ugggh... just finished piecing together every norm texture and got the chest/furnace/workbench done finally...was dreading making the others and trying to get my ores the way I want them...and now a patch went and screwed the whole terrain file setup... the realism in your pack,aza's and sanguine is what inspired me to start my own
-I can't find Phantom... sadface.-
----EDIT2----
I'll try to post more, also, I call the 9001'th post, Just so I can put "The post level... It's over 9000!"
LB Photo Realism 256x256 (not compressed) link takes me to adfly, but the link there won't download the texture pack, can anybody else check it so we can report ir as a broken link?
Downloaded the LB RPG 128x128 and found that it's not updated, iron golems have default textures for instance. Are there plans to update it? I kinda like it more due to its vivid colours.
this is still my preferred HD Texture pack. my new desktop can handle it at a good level so i almost always use the original Photo realistic pack at 256x.
i love how it keeps to the original style of minecraft but give you a visual improvement that is light years above the default. The Enderdragon is just epic. The cobblestone Texture is even nice to look at. COBBLESTONE.
i tried the 512 but this cheap Video card instantly got irritated and i not in the mood to upgrade to something better yet. Considering it was free and is basically the lowest end model Nvidia currently makes the fact it can maintain 30-50fps in full screen at 256x means im happy with it atm. its a GeForce 210. ya. second lowest end card currently listed on the Nvidia site. Yet it can handle 256x with few issues.
if i had the money i would probably put in something at about 100-200$ in price to replace this card. hell something at 60$ would be better lol

Good news everyone!
wild caves has been resurrected
Get it here
Even better news is is the modder wants to update wildgrass as well
I like the new font. It's better than lame ass default font.
bty Scuttles, the videos are not showing up in your OP. Also the optifine mod now have the connected textures option.
new Desktop with massive power improvement over my laptop.
also either the effect from the GLSL shader doesnt work right or it doesnt make much improvement. either way its to much for "this" Video Card.
First, my specs are:
HD 6950 2GB
8GB RAM
i5 2500 processor
Basically mid to high-end hardware.

Now, I am having issues with the 512 pack. I boot in-game and sometimes it works, but usually it says Minecraft has crashed because of lack of memory. No issues with the x256 pack when I run it.
So I tried the memory allocating fix (here: http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/350344-allocating-more-memory-to-java-windows/, I set my parameters to 2048M) and also ran the BAT file for the x512 but it still will crash whenever I try to run it.
Also, how do I get the bumpmaps/shader files to work? I copy-pasted the shader files into minecraft.jar/shaders and then put the terrain.png files in the texturepack .zip, but all that did was make my screen blue with the HUD and have black lines running across the screen.

2GB is plenty enough for 512x. It works for me even with Sonic's shadows. 4GB is way overkill.

Anyone know why this is?
This is in the 256X realisim and rpg pack.
