[color="#FF0000"][font="Impact"][size="5"]NOW UPDATED FOR 1.9.6[/size][/font][/color]

[color="#FF0000"]November 12, update to version 11. Lots of improvements, and added some 1.9.6 textures. I THINK it's compatible with 1.9 now. Many placeholder(default) textures being used, but there are textures there. Have I forgotten anything? Please tell me! And please tell people about my pack! Also, check out my YouTube channel if you haven't before: [url="http://www.youtube.com/user/TobiwanK3nobi"]TobiwanK3nobi[/url][/color]

P.S.: I need good screenshots of the pack in action, so if you've got some good ones of your creations or just landscapes and vistas, post them and I might use them in this original post. :smile.gif:

[b][size="7"]INFORMATION[/size][/b]
Hi! My name is Tobiah, a.k.a. [b]TobiwanK3nobi[/b], and I've labored excessively to make Inspiration a contender among texture packs.

[b]Inspiration[/b] is a texture pack designed for people who like to build [b]massive and realistic structures[/b]. The goal for this pack is to provide textures which are perfectly seamless and rich in color and detail so that your architecture looks as lovely as you hoped it could. I've thrown all my creativity into this so I hope you like it.

[b]Completed so far:[/b]
Terrain
Items
Particles
Environment(custom water, fire, rain, snow, etc.)
GUI
Misc Folder
Wildgrass compatible
Some mobs(ghast, zombie pigman, zombie, creeper, sheep)

[b]To do:[/b]
The rest of the mobs
Character armor models
Wall art

[u]Facts[/u]

[*]I've devoted approximately 750 hours of work to the creation of this pack over the course of about six months.
[*]If I were getting paid(local) minimum wage for those hours, it would equal about $6000.00. Fortunately for you, the pack is free to use. If you would like to make sure I receive compensation for my labor of love, please spread the word about my YouTube channel or this texture pack. Tell all your friends, please!
[*]I have a YouTube channel. Check it out for interesting architecture, let's plays of Minecraft and various other games(in the future), and updates and art videos(mob skinning) relating to the texture pack. [url="http://www.youtube.com/user/TobiwanK3nobi"]TobiwanK3nobi[/url]
[*]I had very little prior experience in digital art before I started this pack. I learned by scrutinizing the excellent works of Doku, Glimmar, and John Smith.
[*]I use Photoshop CS5.

[b][size="7"]WHAT'S NEW[/size][/b]
[u]v11[/u]
[list]
[*]Added some 1.9 stuff, put default textures in place as placeholders too. Pack should be 1.9.6 compatible. Did I miss anything?
[*]New leaves, very proud of them!
[*]New stone
[*]New iron ore
[*]New coal ore
[*]New diamond ore
[*]New diamond block
[*]Modified all diamond items to match new diamond color.
[*]New gold ore
[*]New gravel
[*]New stone slab
[*]New grass top
[*]New iron block
[*]New glass
[*]New stone brick, cracked stone brick, and mossy stone brick
[*]New cobble and mossy cobble
[*]New netherrack
[*]Changed soulsand
[*]New mushroom biome stuff - all giant mushrooms textures, mycellium top and sides
[*]New lapis block (made it in 5 mins just before this release, so if it sucks, that's why XD)
[*]Changed crafting table top
[*]Changed wood planks. Good or no?
[*]Changed brick. Much better.
[*]New bedrock
[*]Added nether brick. Probably will change later. Supposed to look like bronze right now.
[*]Added enchanting table
[*]Added nether wart. Eyeball stalks. :smile.gif: Pretty cool concept I think, but needs work, as it blends in too well with soulsand right now.
[*]Some changes to water, still needs improvement. :sad.gif:
[*]Removed custom fire textures, as 1.9 breaks them. I'll have to do new ones later I guess. Le sigh.
[*]Uhh... changed sand and sandstone some. Bleh.
[*]As usual, there's probably more, but I can't remember.

[/list]
[u]Previous Versions[/u]
[spoiler]
[u]v10[/u]
[list]
[*]Added textures for 1.8 blocks and items. Pack is now compatible with 1.8
[*]Added sheep mob skin
[*]New water! Much improved!
[*]New stone, not so cobblestoney, but still a little 'rpg'
[*]New gravel
[*]New gold block
[*]Improved grass
[*]New dirt-grass sides
[*]Desaturated and brightened dirt some more, made it less orangey.
[*]New sandstone
[*]Gave iron ore a bit more 'depth'
[*]New cactus
[*]Changed sugar cane
[*]New biome color sheet
[*]New red mushroom
[*]New brown mushroom
[*]New wood block
[*]Minor adjustments to certain wool colors.
[*]There's probably more, but I can't remember.
[u]v9[/u]
[list]
[*]New stone
[*]New wood planks
[*]New wood door(with viewport!)
[*]New chests
[*]New glass
[*]New netherrack
[*]New soul sand
[*]New stone slab - tell me if you think it should have divisions on top, or just be smooth.
[*]New diamond ore
[*]New diamond icon
[*]New iron block
[*]Changed all iron items to match iron block - no more dark iron, all is bright and shiny
[*]New sandstone - good, no good? lmk
[*]New ice
[*]Changed biome colors to default because there were still saturation issues in certain biomes. I'll make another custom color spectrum later.
[*]Changed bed a little
[*]Restored 128x mobs, with some brightness and saturation changes
[/list]
[u]v8[/u]
[list]
[*]New creeper and zombie - decided to take the mobs down to actual 32x to fit the pack. If you preferred the 128x skins, don't worry - I'll be making them available in the customizer later.

[*]Brightened and desaturated planks some more.
[*]I THINK that's all. Don't worry, if the texture you have a problem with wasn't changed, be sure that I'll get to it in the future. Working hard on getting the customizer worked out too(it requires a lot of tedious and time-consuming texture selection, isolation, and uploading).
[/list]
[u]v7[/u]
[list]
[*]Made lots of textures brighter to make the pack easier on the eyes.
[*]New wood planks again. Pretty sure I've found the right ones.
[*]New glass
[*]I'll get back to you. See, I stayed up all night to try and get the spider done. I failed. And it's about eight hours past my bedtime so I can't really think of what else I changed. :unsure.gif:
[/list]
[u]v6[/u]
[list]
[*]New creeper skin! Very creepy.
[*]New wood planks - much improved
[*]New map texture and map symbols
[*]That's all... I think.
[*][color="#FF0000"]P.S. Since I can't seem to get everything done that I wan't to get done every week, I'm going to start updating biweekly instead of weekly. So check back [i]every other[/i] Friday. Next update will be on August 5.[/color]

[*]New netherrack, apparently. It was actually just a test texture, but it ended up in the release. Oops. Oh well, if many like it, it can stay.

Quote from madmerlin420

this CANT be a 32X can it? im using doku and it dosen't look NEARLY this good

Quote from DeathOverWorld

Seriously, this is annoying.

I had to register just to tell you how damn awesome this modpack is. Everything in it looks like 64x textures, or maybe even higher.
And I always thought Minecraft wasn't about graphics. Well, screw that. You changed it.

It looks absolutely marvelous, doesn't increase GPU usage almost at all and it is just generally awesome.

Too bad I updated to 1.0.0. Now I can't enjoy your awesomeness for a while.

Either way, I approve this mod, totally.

Quote from demonox

dont EVER reply to an op that takes more than a page to scroll through, please. it's very annoying.

on topic, i agree. this pack (and your buildings) are absolutely astounding. bravo, sir, bravo.

Quote from Asadgunz

Update it.....
Nvm I just wait patiently for you superbly awesome texture pack. The best out of all texture packs that I have used for sure. Good luck updating it...:laugh.gif:

Quote from End3rman

just to let you know there are a few problems:

jak'o lanterns, bricks, pumpkins and netherak dont show up as proper textures e.g. half of the pumpken looks like lava, netherak looks like a block of water.

and suggestions if it is possible could you pleease make the water and lava textures flowing that would be great.

either way fantastic texture pack man tbh i couldnt go back to the default now :smile.gif:

Quote from DuffmanX18

You need to use the patcher. Every texture is working fine.

Quote from alcla

It seems like a disproportionately large number of posts on this thread can be answered with a link to the patcher.

Quote from TobiwanK3nobi

The link which is of course featured quite clearly in the install instructions. Maybe I should break down and do like certain other packs do; place a notice at the top of the thread talking about fire/portal on bricks, nether water, etc.

Quote from PixelPop

Oh for a second I thought you were going for something like this:


"Read or I'll stab ya"
