And... Where to get missing textures for Rotten Flesh, Nether Wart, Spider Eye, Slimeball, Blaze Rod, Redstone Comparator, Jungle Sapling, Birch Sapling, Leather, Sugar Canes, Wheat, Lead, Tripwire Hook, Ink Sac, Nether Quartz, Name Tag, Saddle, Horse Armour, Hopper, Snowball, All seeds?

The pack is not done yet, so of course there are missing textures. But what I find works amazingly perfectly is to layer the most recent version of the community continuation of ovo's rustic pack under this one. Most of the empty textures of this pack get filled in by ovo's and the two packs work pretty well together.

in mcpatcher options, set the horizon to a lower #... not the best solution imo, but it helps. I have that same issue... or the horrible transition from day to night..(instant dark...no transition) it doesn't always happen tho... so vanilla and/or patcher bug? page get!

Yep its the FOG, in Optifine you just turn it off i can't think why MCpatcher doesnt have a way of turning it off. I will try the Horizon trick as it looks dam awful using Better Skies with MCpatcher.

I switched from PureDB and tried out your resource pack on vanilla minecraft and loved it. Then I noticed in the splash screen I should use MCPatcher, so I did. After applying the patches I had the nice stuff like connected and natural textures, but the nicely drawn models of tools/weapons I saw before were standard again. Also the blue orchid ahows up correct in the inventory, but appears as a red flower when planted.
What went wrong here?
Also I'd love to see the fishing improved - I am missing the bubbles animations from PureDB that show when the fishes swim towards the lure.
And while I am writing this: will you r resource pack be able to do waiving grass, wheat and leafs?

Keep up the great work!
Regards
Poldi

EDIT: the wrong textures/models were there because I still had PureDB in the active list after Chroma Hills. After removing I had to discover that most of the saplings look really ugly - haven't you done those yet?

Hey glad you like it

The resource pack is still a work in progress so you will see unfinished textures like the ones you mentioned. Bubbles are done and should show up fine?

Keep up with my updates and you will see that the pack is getting nearer to being complete as I continue to work on it

Quote from sanekaze

I tried and it was not the fog setting, but Sky setting

If i put SKY on Off in optifine, it looks much better, but the sky is a little bit less blue

i dont know if you can do something for this

With sky ON



With Sky Off

Aaaaah yes if you are using Optifine and not 1.7 then you have to turn off the default sky and leave custom sky on and it will look great. Yes there is a difference in the blues but i can't really do anything about it but i don't think it's a big problem

I find putting a texturepack layered under chroma hills works fine? Weird... (I use ovo's under Chroma Hills because it's a pretty finished pack so it removes most of the default textures and they look really good together.)

Hi everybody,

Can someone help me installing this texture? I can't seem to install it using the new MCpatcher, and the .zip file with the texture pack only has a folder called assets and no instructions on what to do with it.

Thanks for your time!

im unsure of your problem to tell the truth. i just use normal minecraft. i neve bothered to even look up what MCPatcher is.
just download it from the link, open up the Start menu type in %appdata%, click on .Minecraft or Minecraft. (i keep forgetting), go down to resource packs, put the file in the recourse folder by copy and pasting the adress. here i will try do give you some pictures

Alright. Going to use this texture pack as my main one. This is awesome!

I was absolutely amazed when I saw the photos in the main thread. The images caught my eye, and it looks amazing! This is one of the very few great resource packs.

Keep up the good work! I plan on using this resource pack for a long time.

Hey, If you use Chroma Hills without MCpatcher or optifine you are missing 100's of extra textures and enhanced features that I have added to my pack that can only be seen by using those mods. To really see Chroma Hills running at its best and and the full experience i highly recommend you do this, you won't regret it

I will make sure i add a installation guide to the pack AND the front page of this thread to help people install it.

Download MCpatcher here http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1496369-13w48b-172-164-and-earlierupdate-1116-mcpatcher-hd-fix-430/

Run it and you will see a window with various options, make sure in the top right option you have the correct version selected 1.7.2 for example.

Click on PATCH at the bottom and let it do its thing for a few seconds. Close MCpatcher

Open Minecraft launcher and in the profiles list select 1.7.2Mcpatcher click play and you have Chroma Hills in full and enhanced

Very simple takes around 1-2 mins to do .

Thanks so much, I still mean to properly finish the front page but I have updated all the pics recently so you got to see how the pack looks with the latest update, as there were some VERY old pics in there that i'm glad have gone!

Anyways hope you enjoy your time with CH.




Sorry for lack of updates over last few days folks, I'll have something new to show you all soon!

i use optifine every now and then and i honestly have never seen any difference. the textures looks the same to me.

Horses? *Taps fingers together* Aside from that, I'm sure what ever else it could be will be awesome!

Ah well i can only assume you haven't done it right, as there is a HUGE difference if you use all the enhanced features I wouldn't have spent months and months creating them if they won't worth it

I find it very difficult to play Chroma Hills without all the extra details its not the full experience for me and i've had 100's of messages to saying a similar story.


NOTICE Chromahills.com and the downloads are currently unavailable due to server maintenance. Should hopefully only be a few hours.


So folks CH is officially 1 year and 2 months old from the first day I sat and made a texture. Its been downloadable now for a little over 6 months and we are over 400,000 downloads. The biggest amount of downloads in one day was a little under 12,000.

To date and counting it has over 1200 CTM enhanced textures, i'm not after breaking any records of having a "look at me and how much CTM I've done badge". Its there to enhance my vision as an artist.

I've worked easily an average of 6 hrs a day on CH up to today. Many days its been more like 8-10 hrs. My CH work folder currently has 4,800 files in it and sits at about 7gigs of data. Currently on Youtube there are over 10,000 videos that feature CH. The top 3 countries using Chroma Hills are USA, France and Germany.


I thought I would share a few stats with you
