I really like it! It would be cool to maybe make them like an animated mob head.
Melons look awesome. The enderman is looking spooky, I'm excited to see where you go with it!

Thanks Yeah was going to make the life forms bob up and down or something.



OKAY i know this is too scary for the pack at the moment BUT................. DONT HAVE NIGHTMARES KIDDIES ..............you may want to just double check under your bed though

That is freaky!

The endermen is very interesting

Little break from Ernie the Ender dude................. back on looking at smoothing out the smooth stone i'm always being asked about

So this time just one texture not CTM to see what look I can get without mods.

I really dislike smooth smooth stone but I'll grow to like it if others decide they like it. I think all your textures look good without ctm, btw.

Okay then. xD Here's the screenies Syclone, I put them in a spoiler so that they wouldn't take up so much room. xD

I wanted to use Camera Studio with shaders, but couldn't record anything, so I recorded a test using the Minema mod. Made my FPS great compared to the 5 fps I got recording. Here's the vid.

I didn't go super smooth so it still has the style but just much more sutble so it shouldn't be too much a change but it does seem the majority would like to see it smoother.

Fences are pink because I don't know why. It seems to be to do with the CTM in the pack and optifine's mipmapping. I might turn mipmapping down from the maximum?

Hey Uni, not looking to bad there I would say from being around some very good builders is to look at the details now and work on making walls and side less flat with more depth, we have rule on the CH server of "no flat walls" add something to them make step in and out, use steps in creative ways to break areas up. Keep at it and thanks for sharing


SO, in true traditional Syclone style i'm never satisfied and always want to go back and look at things again!!

So tonight i had an urge to work on the Stone bricks and heres the result. Click for full screen.

Before
After...little more brown some tighter details, depth and highlights.

I'm liking the smooth stone. But I do agree with Sheep, add some little cracks or something.


If I may make a suggestion about the Diamond sword, would it be possible to add like a frame around the blade? Like the metal that goes through the middle of the sword and handle, but make it go around the blade, so instead of the Diamond part hitting mobs, it would be a metal blade but surrounding the Diamond.

Okay listened to the feed back and added a few cracks............i think we finally have our new smooth stone Then i have to update all the ores to the new stone and then look at random textures to add details/variation.

Not sure on the changing the diamond sword I do like how different it is.........might do a more traditional alt version.

Eh, I will try making the walls not be smooth, but I and pretty confident that one the smaller scale of builds I do when I add them they'll look like *omits swearword*... Oh well. :/ I'll do another castle maybe, I like castles even if I can't do fancy ones...

Well new brick versions now all done.............i'm enjoying this new look i have to say

I love that gravel texture, so much. The stone also looks much better. Can't wait to see what the ores look like with it. Great job!

Loving the look of the new textures syclone!

On another note, I did a quick tower to try out making walls less flat... Probably could have done with making the tower a bit larger but oh well xD.

Simply Amazing.

Wrong, it takes me 5 seconds to pull up all the latest version of SEUS, GLSL shaders, and more. You waited for nothing, :P.
So I'll give you links. SEUS shaders GLSL Shaders Mod Latest Chroma Hills is on website, and there is no shader specific version.
Also, if your lazy about googling 2 links that have threads that prioritize the latest version, I will warn you that you may not get the mod working at all if you don't pay attention, :P.

Thanks Uni, good to see you working on more detail also in the walls also.

Thanks so much

Sorry for being quiet for so long, I'm neck deep in work. Haven't worked on my own textures for weeks, I think... don't even have time to play. The new stone bricks are absolutely amazing and I also like the new stone a lot. Can't wait to see all the ores.

Hey no worries i know you are busy Wow i know how picky you are with the stone bricks in general so that is amazing to hear from you

Quote from zuzulale

Love the new stone and stone bricks . Did you ever thought of redoing The End Sky? Personally, i don't like that you can see the corners and edges and stuff like that. I think something that looks infinite would suit the whole Void thing, rather than having the impression of being trapped in a gigantic box. xD

Great to hear and thanks Yes i plan to do a completely new End sky as it is HORRIBLE in default

Okay ores are now redone to work with the new smoother smooth stone and i got rid of the potatoes! i.e I re did the iron ore.

Re worked all the ores a little, more shading and cracks around them now, reshaped the diamond also.




New work on the CTM coal, more cracks etc

Quote from marcinz606

Any plans on random cracks & other CTM stuff on that stone?

Oh YES...don't know if you saw the CTM coal i just added to the above post, but all those crack parts i made for the ores i will be using for stone CTM as well as much more........i'm may go a little crazy with the amount of details as i held back for ages as I and other people weren't convinced with the old stone. This time i "think" i nail it
