I am looking for a good hd texture pack. I want 1024, 2048, or higher.
I am not worried how it might affect my computer.
Currently I have been using 512x512 packs and get 300-400fps so, a jump up to these higher resulotions wont be of any concern.
I also have plenty of memory to support the resolutions.
If you guys know any good texture packs, and not LB Photo realism(it tiles horribly). I would be very appreciative.
Why? Minecraft is supposed to have crappy graphics, it's part of the charm.
That is a matter of opinion, if you are going to try and argue a subjective matter with the Op instead of at least adding to the discussion of the thread, then please refrain from posting.
On-Topic: The highest resolution I have seen has been 512 unfortunately.

The problem with the truth, is that it never lies.
You really do need to worry about using 1024 and above sized textures. Minecraft itself cannot handle it well, if I remember correctly. Anyways, minecraft only runs at 720p, why would you ever need that high a resolution?
No packs above 512, minecraft just self destructs when you try to use them. At least it used to, dunno how it is with 1.7 but visually you will see bugger all difference so it's a non-issue anyways.
Minecraft ITSELF cannot handle it. Also, you would end up waiting 10-20 minutes for that to load. Apparently, 512 packs take 4-5 minutes to load. 1024x would take about twice the time. 2048 would take 20 minutes, but crash Minecraft also due to memory problems.
I play Minecraft on 1080p and I can see an difference between 720p and 1080p easily
Really? That must be more recent, then.. Last I heard minecraft ran in 720p. Perhaps the 'new' launcher changed that.
Either way, having a texture nearly as large as the resolution the game runs in is a dumb idea. You would have to phase into the block to see the entire texture and all of it's pixels.

been waiting to see someone ask Seradicus that for years...just sayin'....lol
anyway...on topic... I did a few tests with my old pack at higher resolutions, and didn't have any issues with it other than long initial loading times.... but really, anything more than 512x in minecraft is overdoing it. there just isn't a need for that kind of detail in a blocky environment. I guess you could argue that there are a ton of possibilities with ctm and random textures.... but F that... it looks ridiculous.

How rude. ಠ_ಠ
Honestly, even 512x is a bit unnecessary, I'd let someone get away with 256x, but 512x is ridiculous.
At 512x, MCpatcher is the only solution. As far as I know, MCpatcher doesn't work with the shaders mod. I'd rather use shaders then 512x+ texture packs. Also, the loading time doesn't take minutes, lol.

Curse PremiumIt has 16x to 1024x resolutions.
Im The Golden Pumpkin!
Give me a thanks or like If you want to.

Also, what is your hardware?
