Yeah, my cat when he was crushed managed to drag himself home, his entire back end looking like a deflated bag. Somehow putting him in a cast was enough to fix his shattered bones. Cats i suppose are just very well made animals. Good to hear it all ended well... or, i suppose... somewhat well, with your dog.
But yeah, as for the pipes, i probably could do a bit more with it... horizontal ctm might even be a good idea, i could make the elbow ones and the crossed one as the sides, eliminate the horizontal one, and redo the center ones not to go into the stone at the edges so it all connects.
The vet surgeon was saying 9 times out of 10 whenever a cat or dog gets hit by a vehicle it's usually always the pelvis that takes the hit, as they manage to react fast enough to nearly get away but the back end always gets caught. Probably unscientific opinion, but there was lots of evidence for this happening when googled. Hope your cat has a long an happy life. We were warned about the probability of arthritis/joint problems in late life.
The pipes should be awesome...looking forward to seeing the finished plumbing!
13th, I was recently asking SycloneSJS about copyright/legal stuff, as I seem to have run into a little issue with my own legal stuff. I was wanting to check yours to pick up tips, but couldn't find anything in your pack or in your OP. Do you not bother with anything now?
I've ordered a new one though, which was rather financially irresponsible on my part, but at least i can work on my pack again.
I was going to donate $20 on Thursday (my payday) and suggest you spend it on a mouse.
Instead I'm going to ask you how much you spent on your new mouse. I'll cover it for ya.

Oh dear, i redid the thread and forgot to add that back in. Thanks for mentioning it.
If anyone's interested (since this mouse is absolutely amazing for texture work), it's a Logitech g400s. It's just a new version of what i had before. It took me forever, and dozens of returned mice to find one that actually worked well for texturing, so It runs about $50. It's supposedly a gaming mouse, and it works fine for gaming, but really isn't anything special in that department. The feet make it special. It sort of glides like it's on wet ice, which is actually not so good for gaming because it makes fast movements inaccurate, which is what the mouse was intended for, but it makes it great for free hand drawing, because it's easier to control when moving slowly.
I got the warranty this time though, so if this one dies as well (they use awful wires on these things) i'll get a new one pretty quick.
Anyway, i did coal ore today!
A chess knight head (like the item texture), a burnt bird skeleton, a tree branch, and some old floor boards... i suppose a little more variation for coal might not hurt. I might add in a few more broken planks and such as filler. Not sure if it needs it.
Vacuum tubes. 4 varients should be enough for something this rare, right?
I exaggerated the shading a bit so they stand out more. You don't want to miss any diamonds.
Also, i recently invested in music creator 6 on steam... yep, there will be custom music in my pack. Sounds too of course, but i've decided to get into making music. Now, i know nothing at all about music, but then i knew nothing at all about drawing or textures when i first started this pack, so like with everything else, i'll learn.
Also, i could use lapis ideas. I'm not so sure if keeping with the TARDIS idea would work... i mean, i'll almost definately keep it available as an addon, but in general i want it to be a viable building block.

Whoop, I didn't see this!
I'll go do like I said I would, sorry 'bout that.
Also, coal COULD use more filler. There's a lot of it and it'll get repetitive with just a few. Somewhat related; on a technical level, I understand why charcoal is a chess knight head. On an in-universe level, I'm curious why.
Also, four variants is totally enough for diamonds, and they look very nice.
EDIT: And there it is. Hope that covered the warranty and shipping. I'd like to be credited as "Dusty" if you see this. Thanks again for your awesome texpack!
EDIT AGAIN, BECAUSE I AM DUMB: Cobalt aluminate, indigo and copper pthalocyanine are all three solid blue dye materials; indigo in particular resembles a sort of lumpy blue rock. As far as the block... I have no real witty ideas for this.

I've already added one more coal varient, which is just a burnt 2x4 with some nails sticking out. But i think you're right. Testing it ingame, the stuff is everywhere. It needs tons of variation. A good 2-3 more should to the trick. Now, it's just a matter of figuring out what would work well for it... As for the reason for the chess knight, there really isn't one. I suppose when it's embedded in the block, the size becomes appearent and it moreso resembles a carousel horse's head. I guess that's just one of the surreal aspects of my pack. Although, if you think about it, the perspicuus does resemble a chess knight in a way... The arched back, and the long head, specifically.

Also, thank you so much for that It really helps.
Here I thought one or two extra would do it. Your judgement shall reign, and I shall enjoy the coal.
Also, asking about the chess knight, I was asking about the charcoal; it's amusing to me that I put a log in the furnace and by the time I take it out it's reshaped into a horsehead.
Is the Perspicuus obsessively using some transdimensional influence to reshape burning wood? Having all those eyes must have driven him nuts!
There's no real reason for charcoal being that, aside from laziness i suppose. I really just didn't want to make it a shapeless lump, and didn't have any other ideas.

Ah, so just the technical reasons and none other? Makes sense I suppose.
Still an amusing addition to the surreality of the whole thing.

I could of course use a few ideas for more coal lumps, if you have any really good ones. Because i'm all out, and was thinking of just putting more boards in.

Recognizable bits of furniture, maybe; the back half of a rocking chair for example, or a piece of staircase railing.
Aside from that, I'm as dry as you. Sorry.

I actually had planned a staircase railing. I completely forgot about it. I even have the rough shape saved in the .xcf. I should make something of that.

An extremely burnt circuit board? An extremely burnt slice of toast? Extremely burned anything? Also, to rewind a bit, I think Slime Blocks should look like a cube of slime, but with a big rusty spring inside. I personally liked the lapis being a TARDIS door (was that a little reference to the TARDIS exploding throughout time and space in the Pandorica episode?) but I think it'd also look pretty cool as a bunch of blue Legos embedded in rock.
A while back, someone mentioned that my pack wasn't steampunk at all because it didn't have very many gears. Well, that's true, so i'm really trying to add more. There's a gear on every iron block.
But that's not all. I plan to go back and edit all of my old textures to have more gears. I may have to push back the next release a bit, since i have to edit almost everything.
I agree. Personally I like using iron blocks to build with, and I can't think of any good uses for that block.
If you want more gears, why don't you make the command blocks into gearboxes, Painterly style?
Well, i might as well tell you now... i'm actually working on something pretty neat for the real iron block. I've been at it a few days already. So many rivets...
