I Like this texture pack very much! Looks very clean, Looks Very Nice. EDIT: After seeing The glowstone I kinda dont like This pack anymore. I don't Really like the look of it In the picture ^^^^^^... Glowstone Is my FAVORITE Block to build with
And i want it to look Good. Otherwise, Great Texture pack

So you don't like the latest picture?
Or the current texture?
I do have a lot of alternate textures as well although I'm not sure how many are for glowstone...
Just wondering, but what style of glowstone do you like? Cos it would be kind of unfortunate for you to not like my pack JUST because you don't like the glowstone... :mellow.gif: Plus I can make textures quite quickly so I could make a few alternate textures for people to use.

That lava looks so sub-par compared to the new water.

Lightstone is coming alone well.

Yea, new lava is in the works once I finish the blocks off :smile.gif:
Glad you like the lightstone/glowstone (which is it?!?!?) so far as well!

Quote from xNightmare

It's both. ;p
I can't wait for Minecraft 1.8. :<
Going to be a fair few textures to create.

Heh yea, still a while till that though!
At least this time can be used finishing the current mobs so I only need to do new stuff and armour when 1.8 comes out. It'll be nice to have a 100% complete pack! Then I can spend more time on my other projects (such as my super secret 32x project :wink.gif:)

Oh yea, do have any idea when they're likely to release 1.8? I haven't been keeping up in the minecraft news so much lately...

Quote from xNightmare

About a 6-10 weeks away. :tongue.gif:
Plenty Of time

Ehhhhh, that's a good thing and a bad thing... :|
WANT 1.8 NAO!

New screenshot posted just then.

The level height (It is default 128) in the screenshot is 518.

Imagine the buildings people will have!

Skyscrapers. c:

I was just looking at it on facebook and was about to post a link here....

Quote from Aeri Tyaelaria

I actually REALLY like this new lightstone. Put it with the 'Fantasy' pack for sure!

And Lava should follow the same colour as the flames in the fantasy pack, so a deep blue/purple and maybe make it look flowing like the Painterly 'honey lava' (Which doesn't work ahahaha) and if you do the same with fire (so make it bluey/purple) that'd look super epic.

Thanks!
Yea, lava will be an awesome colour for the fantasy pack, but for the others it'll be normal. Gonna have to make the actual animation before I make any colour decisions though! Just don't know which style of animation....

Quote from imnumberfour

Hmmm sheep, lets make an agreement...I show you what I have done in my TP...if you show me at least ONE tile of your secret 32x texture pack? I'll also allow you to use my flowers! pwease :3 ?

.............. Fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiine................
I'll just post a picture here then. :smile.gif:

Quote from LordTrilobite

That's some very nice lightstone.

Thanks LordTrilobite!

Quote from Aeri Tyaelaria

You could use the 'honey lava' animation from Painterly (ask first (: ) and then recolour it. Seems Painterly screwed up and made it orange instead of yellow!

Also I wanted to make sure if this was ok. I decided to try and spruce up the Nagareru pack by making the Katanas in it like your current packs (like high quality). I'll send you the finished effect after if you would like (:

ALSO I just realised by doing that there's a suited creeper within the fantasy pack! I was like "YES WANT" <adds>.

Another thing. With 'my pack' can you add the Nagareru armor and make new icons up for the GUI? Sorry to be a right pain in the ring but I looked at the armor in the pack and I was like "WANT!", but I saw you hadn't added the symbols into the items GUI so I was a little saddened.

What I'll do for all this messing around I'm making you do is I'll get my guys together when I get my RAM upgrade and we'll all film (all 3 of us) using different varients of your pack (so one will use RPG, I'll use Fantasy and the other will pick between Vivid + default) and we'll edit them together, rate etc. (To be honest I've been telling them to get this pack given it's nearly 32x32 and is really RAM friendly).

Keep up the good work Sheep. I'm following (:

Yea, I don't wanna use the stuff from painterly :tongue.gif:
I like to use all my own textures so I will just make my own lava. Thanks for the suggestion though! (I'd like to see the improved katana's as well if you don't mind! :biggrin.gif:)
I can also include the armour in 'your' pack but making the icons will take some time and I'm concentrating on other things such as the lava at the moment. It will get done in time though!

Look forwards to seeing the video (videos?) too!

Here's some random stuff:



New half slabs without any detail/texture



Awesomesauce + new grass texture but it's hard to tell... (it looks a bit less messy and nicer in clumps though, now just a new fern texture!)



Big tree...



Going to town



Oh, and the cobble has more detail now!




Random winnage

Quote from steelfeathers

You know, I don't think I've ever noticed before just how nice your cobble is. Good job!

Btw, that flying castle map is SICK. Where's you get it?

Thanks!
It's actually Laputa from the Studio Ghibli map here.

Whole bunch of other awesome stuff on this map too but it's mostly just if you've seen the movies. :tongue.gif:

Quote from xNightmare

I suspect you are adding detail to the slabs still? ;p

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP
Definitely! They would be really out of place if I didn't! :tongue.gif:

Really unrelated guys, but I found some pictures of my first ever textures! (two seperate packs here)













Very much feeling nostalgia right now... You can also see the big improvements I've made!
Mind you though, I actually think with my improved texturing skills I could turn both of these into very nice packs. Might have a fiddle with them some time and release them as 'nostalgia packs' or something :tongue.gif:

Quote from Proloe

Recognised it immediately!

I like the cobble here. Can't say I'm too fond of the red glass in the latest screenshots though. A little too saturated in my opinion.

Ohhhhhh no, that glass is from the first minecraft texture editing I ever did :tongue.gif:
Way back in the alpha days....
My glass is a lot better now! (both of the packs in the screenshots are really old unreleased packs of mine, the only up-to-date screenshots are of the Studio Ghibli world and all of that post)

Oh, and if you haven't tried out that Studio Ghibli world, try it. It's amazing! (proud to say I recognised every structure in the world too! :tongue.gif:)

Quote from imnumberfour

Heres the terrian.png of what I have done so far, I am using your pack as a base!

I have not done much but I guess you can see what I have changed!:


-snip-

I am proud of my mossy cobblestone :3

I would be proud of it too! It looks great! :biggrin.gif:
I love how smooth it is but there is still detail there. Looks great in-game! (and those planks.... <3)

Quote from zackychuu

right, i've been seriously considering making a texture pack, it probably wont be any good but i just want to give it a try
what programme do you use for it?
or what would you suggest that i use as a first timer?

any and all help or advice is welcome from all on the thread
thanks :smile.gif:

Yea, try make a pack! :biggrin.gif:
I use paint.net for all of my textures because all I really need is a pencil tool and a colour wheel.

Quote from PhanTango

Paint.Net (http://getpaint.net) is a really user friendly program, which has lots of great features for making texture packs. Once you get the basics, you'll be on your way to making a nice texture pack. However, if you're up for it, you could try GIMP, which is a lot more complicated and less user friendly, but you can pull off better effects.

Basically this^ (paint.net is awesome!)

Quote from Master_AJB

OMG I LOVED EVERY STUDIO GIBHLI MOVIE EVER!! :DDDDDDDDDDD
Also, that new glowstone looks pretty awesome.
Can't wait for your next update: when will the quick one come out??

I know right? :biggrin.gif: They're awesome!
Glad you're liking the glowstone so far as well (even though it ain't anywhere near done in the screenies)
As for the update, most likely tomorrow because I wanna make 1 or 2 more glowstone textures as alts. (getting ready to put my pack on the customizer website and the more the merrier!)

Quote from jacky_boi109

They work for me too :dry.gif:

Wut?

Quote from imnumberfour

As you know I am a huge fan of your pack...but not of the new glowstone...:/ it irks me for some reason...

I prefer the traditional yellow decorative rock type of glowstone, not so much the fancy, unique type...

Sorry :3

Don't worry, I'm making at least one more traditional style before I release the update which is likely to be tomorrow :smile.gif:

Quote from Aeri Tyaelaria

Thanks very much (:

I'll ask my friend to make the armor icons, he is an ex pixel artist so he might be able to do it a ton better than me. I think you should combine your Nagareu stuff with these packs.

Have you released the new lightstone btw?

Not yet, most likely tomorrow once I make another lightstone alt. (or tonight if I get enough time after my french tutoring :tongue.gif:)

Quote from DiamondProphet

Hey NexT!ze here and i really have to say
i ****in LOVE your packs^^ right now im playing with your fantasy pack and it's looking soooo
awesome! You made minecraft to me much more enjoyable and i hope you'll never
stop making textures for us!

No worries! I love your video's so yea, it's all good :biggrin.gif:
Thanks for making that one on the fantasy pack too!

Quote from zackychuu

Thanks!
I already have GIMP but have only ever used it once, and all that was, was just simple photo editing.
Though if Paint.net is more user friendly i will definitely have a look at it :smile.gif:
just one thing..not to seem like a noob, even though i am..
how do i actually make a texturepack? do i just edit the terrain.png and all those?

Yea, paint.net is far easier to use! It's just as good (if not better) in my opinion too.
Oh and yes, you just need to draw on the png files to change the textures :smile.gif:
If you have no experience with texturing though you should probably have a look at one of the guides people have made here on the forums, they really help if you're new to this stuff!
