From the way you described it, the player would only be able to see the block they're standing on, and other blocks that they happen to bump into while stumbling around virtually blind. I... Don't think that that's what you were actually trying to describe, so could I have a link to the plugin that you're talking about, please?

In any case, yes, since texture pack information is 100% clientside, I can think of nothing that any multiplayer server could ever do to make specific types of texture packs not work, while allowing others to work.

Strongestcraft's been updated! I've made coal, iron, gold, redstone and lapis lazuli ores thicker so they're easier to spot, made clay thicker so it's easier to spot, made all colors of cloth blocks thicker so they're easier to distinguish from other blocks and made mossy stronghold bricks and cracked stronghold bricks 100% solid again to make strongholds much easier to find. Enjoy! As always, let me know what you think about this texture pack- if you've got even a single suggestion, post it here!

Thanks for your kind words!

Strongestcraft's been updated! I've updated for the 1.9 pre-release and added some transparency to nether bricks, but left them solid enough that fortresses should stand out the moment you see them. Enjoy! As always, let me know what you think about this texture pack- if you have even a single suggestion, post it here!

Strongestcraft's been updated! I've updated everything for 1.9 pre-release 4. Please note that I've- once again- lost the urge to play Minecraft, so I haven't tested out the changes for myself in-game. Let me know if you notice anything that seems wrong with this release. Enjoy! As always, let me know what you think about this texture pack- if you have even a single suggestion, post it here!

This is wonderful, you can use the x-ray mod and this looks fantastic, too!

Been using the texture since March :biggrin.gif:

Heh, come a long way, hasn't it? Thanks for your support!

Suddenly,
The contest: Make a video of yourself generating a new, single player world and making a diamond pickaxe, diamond sword and diamond shovel. The person who does it in the fastest time by the deadline wins!

The rules:
You must include the part of the video where you show that you're generating a new world.
You must be playing in survival mode, not creative mode.
You must not use any mods to help you succeed, such as using a mod to increase diamond spawns or Zombe's modpack to increase your movement speed. (Please note that if you have mods like Zombe's modpack installed, you don't have to completely uninstall them; just keep them turned off/avoid using them.)
You must use Strongestcraft, at least version 0.26 or later.
The world you generate must be at least 1.8 or later.
The video must be played/uploaded at normal speed, neither slowed down nor sped up.
You must make a diamond pickaxe, diamond sword and diamond shovel in the video, not just obtain six diamonds and stop there.

The prize: $5! Please note that you MUST have a valid PayPal account for me to send you the money!

The deadline: December 6th. Absolutely no late entries will be accepted!

Good luck, everyone! Be sure to let your friends know about this so they have a chance to win, too!

I've decided to increase the contest prize to $10. All you have to do is make a video of yourself making a new world and using Strongestcraft to make some diamond tools as quickly as you can to win some money. I'm surprised that there hasn't been a single entry yet!

... Well, it's been over a week and not a single person has shown even the slightest interest in the contest. So I guess no one would mind if I called it off.

The latest version of Strongestcraft is compatible with 1.9 pre-5.

F.A.Q./Concerns
"Why don't you keep all the ore's original textures or just change them all to be solid colored blocks?"
Early testing with keeping all the textures the same showed that 95-100% of people quickly became frustrated using this pack after mining great distances to reach what they thought were diamonds, only for it to be something they didn't need like coal, iron or redstone again and again and again. By changing the textures so that they're all different, they can be individually identified in pitch black areas, which is where you'll see around 95% of the ores underground: in pitch black areas where you can't see what color they are. The way the pack has ores now is the most efficient it can be without making the textures bulkier/thicker.

Thanks for your support and I hope you get a better computer some day. I'm in the same boat as you.

Thanks for your support! If you have any suggestions on how to improve it, please let me know!

That's odd; sounds like a problem either with your internet connection or a temporary MediaFire problem. I hope it's been resolved!
