The cobblestone I have now will never be Recyclebin'd, I am already working on the 1.8 terrain.png. And in cobblestones place is a big fat nothing. If you have an idea sure PM me, I'll put your name in the OP for helping better this pack.

I'd like to put out a few more ideas before the 1.8 update comes out. Hopefully, I'll have something useful within a week. I've already scanned Sonic Spinball for almost all the good possibilities, and I'd like to do the same for Sonic 1, 2, 3, Knuckles, and CD.

Afterward, I'll compile a list of all the ideas I've sent you, that are either in progress, or pending. If there are any ideas anyone else has sent you that you have yet to implement into the texture pack, send them to me, so I can add them to the list. It's better to have everything in just one place to look at.

You would be a lifesaver if you did that, I have the log.txt in the pack to keep track but a nice organized.. simple list of the top priorities etc would really help out! Thanks! :laugh.gif:

Stuff has been sent

Ok I now have perfect graphics in the place for the ruinous stone smooth, cracked, and mossy. Nothing yet for the shrooms. I also NEED ideas for cobblestone, if truly there are none, I can simply generate a graphic and give it a sonic'y feel like I've done before [TNT, Sapling, Bedrock, Wood top, Diamond block, chest, crafting table, music blox, furnace, pistons, ETC].

Remember, this pack is meant to be a Sonic Vintage Pack, even if that means, tweaking a few things to get everything to match and look different from everyone elses "cut and paste" Sonic texture packs.

DL count: 3200 Thanx guys and thanks to me not caring for the $1.60 that I would have earned putting my download on Adf.ly. For. 2-3. MONTHS. Of work.

Bless their generosity, and good night my friends! :smile.gif:

GO SONIC GO!

You do mean the huge shrooms by 'shrooms don't you? Well you aren't useing the texture of the large mushrooms from mushroom hill for anything are you?

Okay, I was just tring the 1.8 pre-release, and it apears that the custom water and lava aren't working.

?

Lol you have to re-patch it. And epic video man! Thanks for putting a link!

EDIT: You kinda make it seem like I made it, but I didn't think up any of the ideas for it though lol,

And here is the log so far for the next update [1.8]:
+Rings for armor
+Some 1.8 blox
+New smoke particles
+New background [originally was dirt
+New pack pic
+New pine leaves
+New cobble/moss stone
+Made official wildgrass more visible
+Better wood [trust me on this please]
+Recolored stone slabs slightly to look stonier
+GREAT animated lava still AND flowing
=working on water and [new] portal. I think for now, fire is scratched though. I mean... It's just a scrolling image. I daresay fail?

BUMP ^^^ Read? Thanks! :smile.gif:

OMG AWESOEM IDEA! make zombies into Tails Doll! BRILLIANT!

I was just kidding man, but I'd have to agree. Nearly a Co-founder, you too though! Anyone I put in the OP was REALLY a huge help. I couldn't have hoped for more from you guys :smile.gif:

With all this in mind UPDATE. Compatable with 1.8. Please don't bug me about no custom water or fire. They were [very] bad anyways! Lava is pretty much completed so I didn't worry about that.

Wow, great timing. I downloaded this after reading all 13 pages of comments (I love how much work you guys are putting into this) and then realized that my MCPatcher had greyed out HD Textures. I searched and realized that apparently 128x and below don't need the patcher anymore? I have no clue. But I will download the 1.8 compatible one and see if I can get it to work. :smile.gif:.

Oh, and a suggestion. About how you planned on using Dr. Robotnik as ghasts, maybe you should just make it his flying machine? It be more realistic because, well, there's only one Dr. Robotnik and it would be much easier than having him in the machine too. Considering Eggman wouldn't take up the entire machine (He's not THAT chubby), he would end up looking like a big chunk of red jacket and a face.

I realize this probably makes NO sense, but basically while viewing a ghast from the front, you could simply make the sides (of the front face) transparent where his body isn't there and it would look great. But turning to the side face his body would be all the way out to the edge, therefore not connecting to the visible edge of the front face. But with the awesome work you have put into this already, maybe you can find some way to make it work. :smile.gif:

Edit: MCPatcher isn't working still (with no mods installed) and I don't know why. Your chests dont show up for me, your vines, melons, and giant mushrooms don't show up for me (but I don't think you added vines melons or giant shrooms yet, unless I downloaded before you edited the front page?) May I ask what new 1.8 blocks you DID add? Checking your terrain.png it isn't very many (at least in the swamp biome I was in).

Alaustin yes people have been wanting that ghast skin. Chests don't show up because I need to unfortunately, place the chest skin in the new gui that notch made. Haven't gotten around to it yet.

SORRY to anyone who downloaded the pack in the last hour, I had it as 1.8 but I deleted the new link accidentally and it left the "DOWNLOAD" button sending you to the 1.7.3 V7 download. FIXED.

1.8 IS UP. But hey you should realise that most the the blocks I just added only ones I did were the Stronghold blocks. I didn't design textures for everything else yet though :sad.gif:

Yeah, I know lot's of people want it, I was just giving a suggestion on not having Robotnik in the machine.

Ah, that makes a lot more sense. And don't beat yourself up over only having the stronghold blocks so far! I just wanted to make sure it wasn't a problem on my end.

Keep up the good work!

You in a way inspired me to take my time and get graphics in for some of the newer 1.8 blocks.
So this is what I have so far, you can just put them in if you want. I had to self make the mushrooms completely due to them either only being 16x res or not being tileable whatsoever. Stronghold blocks may not be done, and they may so be done, just depends on feedback.

I might put alternative textures for them too in the alt.png [which I'm completely starting over on, in case you were wondering why there was no alt_wool.png]



EDIT: And remember, these are not complete yet.
Did anyone see that new painting too? Self made, looks pretty promising...



EDIT2: Wow I just realized how stupid Tails looks in that picture. I think I might just cut him out lol.
