Hola!
Sorry for the lack of responses; I promise I'll hit them up tomorrow!
These last few days have been ridiculous... you remember me mentioning something about "life working against my efforts"?
Well, after the lightning storm Wednesday (I believe) which knocked out my power, I ended up having to stay late at work because right as I was about to leave I walk into my boss' office to find him having a seizure... and I was the only other person around..
So, shaken as I was I figured I'd just devote the weekend to texturing... forgetting about both my brother and mother's back-to-back birthdays...
So yeah... despite the above, I managed to somehow put in an ungodly amount of random hours into this: (I completely underestimated what a ***** this would be!)
I think it's nearly complete, I just think it still looks a bit plain. Any suggestions? Mud/Blood splatter maybe?
(at the very least, it needs more battle scars)
Also, do you think it's diamond-y enough, or should I add more blue?

sorry to hear your troubles... i think that diamond armour is looking great maybe some battlescars and blood splats.
Idea for a (an alternate?) texture for the Witch.
How's about a Lich?
Necrotic, robed, badass. You know the sort.
I realise with the amount of work you put into every aspect of the pack it's a long way off, but, I'll throw it out there
And naturally, the bats should be rabid
I'm not sure on what to do with the witch just yet. I really dislike the villager model, and the hat is possibly the worst thing in Minecraft so far, but I'll try and come up with something cool for it! (I'm waiting to see if they live in villages, have random homes, or just wander around before doing anything.)
The bats I already have planned in my head.
The body block doesn't need any real detail, so it'll just be black fur; but the wings and feet will be drawn pretty cool. The faces are going to be mostly nose, with beady red eyes. I'd rather go with a stylized realism with the bats, as actual bats look a lot more awesome than any cartoon ones I've seen.
Not entirely sure when the swords will be made. I'm just about done with the diamond armor though, so I can finally get back to dealing with some of the smaller texture projects in the pack again. I'll try and have them done relatively soon though, as they'd be fun to play with.
Here is a Bedrock Castle im working on... Loving the tex pack
Very cool!!
I can't wait to see it with the village and such inside! be sure to post some screens if you can!
Hey, since you're the only person I've seen build with the Bedrock so far, I should ask: what do you think of the brown color?
I think it's ugly, but I kept falling in holes in the maps with the old black Bedrock.
And here are the bloodletters i was talking about, maybe you could change pigmen into somthing similar o.O
While it would be cool, I'm trying to cut back on using pre-existing characters for the mobs (I already dislike my Slenderman). Plus, I don't think I'd be able to make them look good on the bulky Pigman model.
Nice idea though!
edit i have fixxed better skies to a point... stars no longer appear in front of moon (i still have to fix the timing of the clouds). also i have uploaded alt suit/armours you will just have to rename them (instructions are included)
ignore the plumes i just havent got a recent photo.
Awesome work as always, dude!
I have a feeling people are either going to love or hate my armors from here on out, so it's great to have all these extra choices available.
Thanks for all the hard work that wet into them!
Hey VonDoom I wanted to say I love the pack, been using it since it was a few mobs, and your doing a great job!
I had an idea though, what about Marvel Zombies? You could make them a skin or even random mobs maybe?
I've thought about it and decided that most people would probably hate seeing a zombie spider-man running around their worlds; so I won't be making any MZ skins for the pack.
I would like to make some fairly simple edits using my marvel skins and zombie textures for some MZ HD skins though!
Then, as Zomb mentioned, you could just name them and toss them in your mob folder.

Alriiiiight...
So after yet another day of toying with the diamond armor, I think I'm finally happy with it.
(there were still a few transparency errors when I took this. they've since been fixed.)
When I started the diamond armor, there were two basic things I wanted it to portray:
1- Power & Strength, for those who play single player/friendly SMP.
2- "I am not one to be ****ed with", for those playing PVP SMP (including MineZ and such)
Very cool!!

Thanks but im unsure of what you mean by brown? my bedrock is black, thats why i use it, and i have the habbit of building a basic structure from bedrock before changing to survival as i hate creepers blowing them apart if im too close to my house and one catches me...
to be honest, if it was brown I'd absolutely hate it. Bedrock is dark, mysterious, and unbreakable. Naturally it should be Black, but i love the black tex as its like black diamond. looks like it would be shiny. either way i'd die if wend brown id scrap it completely.

Hooooo boy... I may ruin your night, but there is a slight brown color to the Bedrock if you look closely. Not Dirt brown or anything, but it needed something to differentiate it from holes in the map (which are black), and Obsidian already used a purple tone.
Take a close look and let me know what you think. It's basically a placeholder texture until something better is made, so I'm very much open to suggestions!

leave it be! thats all i can say, i like how the black is, with the grey/brown highlights. it looks like it should be, its one of the reasons i love this pack. its not just a solid colour it looks like alot of rocks with a dark background. makes my castle look evil and formidable.

Okay cool. Just glad you didn't have to scrap the whole thing!

So, checking in on the Texture Artists Union thread last night, I saw a whole bunch of people going with my old "stoneslab pillars" idea, and finally remembered to finish them!
Unfortunately, the Sandstone slab pillars won't work because of the way MC changes them to the decorated sandstone; But I think I'll have a go at making some Hellraiser-looking Obsidian pillars (for some awesome portals and such!).

very cool
im still anxious to see how the swords are coming along! and what coulout are you intending on doing the chaos version of the armour? I'd either go with Nightlords, (midnight Blue, VERY dark blue with cracks of lightning) With the Trim in a dark Bronze, or go with Khorne colours darker red, with a lighter bronze/dark gold trim.
from what i have seen of that armour so far, im guessing its all gonna look just Savage!!

I've got outlining done on the swords, I'm just waiting a little bit to finish them up, as I have some other textures that need finishing first, and I can't really justify putting the time into Alt Tex animations at the moment. They'll be done very soon though!
As for the armor, I'm only keeping the current purple/blue one in the pack as armor (though I'll probably throw in recolored Alts for all the armor types).
All the other Chapters & Chaos Marines will be done as HD Skins; so keep an eye out for them!
(I'm in the middle of flattening all the 117 layers to be easily recolorable)
On another note, other than the Diamond Armor & pillars, I've finally gotten to redoing the Glowstone!
The animated under-lava and pulsing light are much smoother, and it's got a border (the #1 complaint)
Okay cool. Just glad you didn't have to scrap the whole thing!

oh cool those pillars are awesome!! and the glowstone looks great
I just looked up Radar Mod and it popped up...
Also Doom can I have your radaricons.png file so I can have the vonDoomCraft images instead of the default ones???
Hmm... I dont normally like bordered glowstone cause it quite often looks terrible in the nether, but i'm open for change (As long as you leave an un-bordered one in the alts just in case )
Will do!
Yeah, the general reaction to the new glowstone pic has been "NOOO! I HATE BORDERS!"; while the pretty much everyone else has said "Ew. it needs borders!".
So the old one will stay as an Alt.
And yep, that bottom radar is the RadarBros mod (been using it for its savable friends list in MineZ).
The reason it's so small, and stuck in the corner is because normally, the radar is unreasonably huge and takes up 1/3 of the map; but where it is, it reminds me of the Aliens motion-tracker (if only I could retexture its background!)

Here you go! Just rename it "radaricons.png" and have it replace the default in eiher the radarbros.zip or your minecraft.jar (depending on how you installed the mod)
OH! You MAY wish to replace the pink master chief with your own skin lol
Ok, so on another note, I've got the new Diamond Armor, Pillars, and Glowstone ready for a new release. I think what I'll do is work on some small stuff (probably either Items or the Minecrats, depending on what I can get done with this awful cold of mine ), toss in some Alt Space Marines for the other armors, and have a new release this weekend!

This is by far the best pack I have ever come across and I have honestly tried darn near all the 32x and above packs.. Great work such talent. Is it at all possible to make alt gui's with maybe the black wool inlays instead of the wood inlays you have recolored pink and the alt green?. That wood inlay makes it so difficult to really see what you have when you pull up your inventory or any other gui. Also for the chest it's almost 90% impossible for me to know what I have in there because of the zombie (Which looks amazing) WITH the wood inlay. If I knew what I had when I opened my chests and things I would strictly use your pack. Really though I can't say enough about this pack that I'm sure has already been said before. You're VERY talented.

I think it's nearly complete, I just think it still looks a bit plain. Any suggestions? Mud/Blood splatter maybe?
(at the very least, it needs more battle scars)
Also, do you think it's diamond-y enough, or should I add more blue?
Any idea what you'll be doing for the new Witch mob?

whats the radar at bottom left??

yeah i found it too... i'm on latest snapshot but so will have to wait till 1.4 to check it out
yeah top left is rei's minimap with Doom's custom textures.
Will do!
