Hello all! I have returned to work on a pack. This time it is 256 x 256 and I decided to take a more realistic approach. Now I am having trouble with the glowstone texture, I have the shape and color the way I want it. The problem is, is that it needs more depth, like it needs more colors to be darker and lighter. I am using the program gimp and do not know how to achieve this without butchering my image. Any suggestions. Thanks in advance.

Also let me know if you want to see it in game

A simple solution would be to play with the brightness and contrast levels. I think it's under Image > Brightness/contrast

Yeah thats what I want, but I want it on like individual pieces not the whole thing. To give you a better picture of what I'm talking about, if you look at the original glowstone texture some of the parts are lighter than others. There like points of lights.

My apology, I'll do that, thanks.

Oh, I see. Well in that case, you could make a new layer overtop and set it to "overlay" then paint on some highlights using a soft brush tool that's white in colour.

Thanks for the suggestion! I lightened up some of the points, but I really couldn't do much for darkening it.Alright, can someone please help me out with lava/water animation and mob skins. I don't even know where to begin.

Does anyone have a tutorial up that shows how to animate realistic lava moving and still as well as water?
