Phewph...Worked through all of A Christmas Story on AMC. Got wood, and some test ores (disregard those). Not satisfied.

Here's some of what I have so far [16x]

I'm such a perfectionist - things move so slowly :wacko.gif:

Augh. I've wanted to make my own texture pack forever, and seeing you all dish out textures like pie and then thinking they're crap is infuriating ; A;

Anyways, cobblestone.

Looks beautiful! I love the large stones, I would however break up that it looks like a bar of big stones and lines of smaller stones - it would look more fluid if there were more variations through the tile

Just try!
You'll never get anywhere if you're too afraid to at least try. :smile.gif:

I have tried a great number of times...
All I've managed to do was salvage tilesets from old Dragon Warrior games and update them... ._.
I'd feel guilty about even trying to submit a texture pack knowing this is how I made it.

See you in last place, cause I fail at texturing!

How does one make such good tiling textures? :L

Here's my best try at a 16x dirt, although I can still spot a lot of issues.

It is alot better then your last try. You can't see any obvious spots that stand out. Quite good. You should move on now, and start the other blocks if you have only done dirt so far.

We'll see, I'm actually kinda busy with school stuff right now, I counted to 7 tests and various stuff that has to be done in the following 2 weeks. :/

:blink.gif: Good luck, and that dirt texture is really good

Leo, what image hosting website do you use to make your image larger than it should be? Cause tinypic and imgur don't really do well with that.

I only use http://imgur.com/ and http://imageshack.us/, just right click on a picture and press "open picture in new tab", or something similar and you should be able to read from the URL where the picture is uploaded. :smile.gif:

And I have no idea what you mean with "larger", do you mean why the textures are so big? It's just because I've resized them to a bigger size.

Thanks for the info, but it still shows up very tiny, but yours is big enough to actually see the pixels. I was just wondering what size you used, because when I try to resize it on imgur, it tries to "anti-alias" the pixels to make the image smoother, thus ruining the "five pixel rule". But when I use imageshack, I tried all of the sizes, and they all appear the same size after editing the post. And, you're magical at textures. Veeery magical.

Tried to make cobble :sad.gif: My first attempt:


Not too proud of it and I will probably need to change it.
Thanks for upping the time limit, Steel! I may somehow actually finish this now!
Nice textures btw. I could never make my 16x textures look like that

That actually looks really good in the game itself. If you make the rest of the textures similar, it could turn out really well.

Hello every body, Its been a wile since I updated you on my pack. This isn't all I have done, but it's some thing.






That second one is wool in sandstone.

Had to redo all of the progress I made earlier because my laptop ran out of battery and GIMP shutdown on me, to I've been redoing it on and off since 5:00 est. New Cobblestone, Mossy Cobblestone, and Leaves(WIP). :smile.gif:

I'm going to try this (:

You guys make it look like such fun!

It is!

It's starting to come together. I gotta figure out how to make a good tree texture, i've failed twice already.

Am I the only one who thought 5 colours per block sounded easy?

Well I partially agree. Some of the textures could be done well with 3 colors.
However, some are nearly impossible to make look nice with less then 5.
