Pretty sure he uses crazy bump as of recently, not sure if he changed though.
CrazyBump's results are very different from his, I've used it quite a bit. Closest I could find was Bitmap2Material, but that had a few differences aswell.

Well he told me he used crazybump. Probably just chained the settings.
Really? Man calm down, what´s wrong to say that an update would be nice?
Nothing just that it is so annoying when everyone wants so much for him. A few dollars here and there isn't enough to make a living man so of course there are priorities.
Nah, I agree with B4njo, you do need to kinda chill. an update could be like 1 one thing anyway, not like a huge deal.
I am not seeing why you guys have an impression that I am steaming/angry. Also just saying the pure words... "an update would be nice" is not good. You don't tell him what to add. If he should update to 1.9. No helpful criticism or suggestions. The only words are update it. Also all I said was be patient hence my wording chill and if you couldn't contextualize my comment, then I am sorry for my wording. However, if you did understand my wording, if asking someone being patient means for another to continually criticize someone's comments with things like chill than you guys need to learn patience. I don't supposed you guys have any idea how long it takes to create one texture or, in this case many, so asking someone so ambiguously to update doesn't do anything helpful.
Being impatient for new features and releases is absolutely normal: it happens to me as well.
I can't wait for new features being added to the products I love and support.
I think being impatient for updates is a good thing: it means we care about the product, and want more of it. I can understand that.
On the other side, as a creator, I understand the time and effort it takes to release new updates.
But more importantly, who knows what's going on in the life of other people? I don't, and I often forget that.
Here on the net, we can't see who is behind that product we appreciate.
I often forget that there are humans behind the internet.
The thing is: I would be really happy to release a new update. In fact, I'm working on a new mapping, since it's so ugly in 07 (due to previous hardware limitations of mine).
But we have a problem.
Some people are redistributing the full pack without permission, which is of course illegal, but there's more than that.
It's not a matter of laws and such. It's irrespectful. I'll write you a letter about that topic, in hope that those people stop that and explain me why they act like so.
Working on something knowing that people are going to throw it away like they are entiotled to it, like they don't really care, is sad to me.
Some people complain about the pack costing money. Like, about the cost of a coke.
To put things in perspective, the software I'm using for the new mapping costs 100€.
Photoshop, another tool I use, costs about 120€ per year. Throw in internet, about 360€ per year, and elecricity, hosting, domain, and of course the computer (I will skip that cost), and well, if you're smart enough, you got the point.
Did I mention it takes time I won't get back?
So, that's why is so sad to me that some people act like "oh, I paid a buck for that pack, so here you have it, let's not support the creator".

I am sorry for the spam on your forum matteo. Also I have some ideas for piracy protection for your resourcepack

I am curious about this. How would you put DRM on a resource pack? From a Com-Sci major with a concentration in Information Security this intrigues me.

"From a Com-Sci major with a concentration in Information Security" nobody understands what this means.

It wouldn't be a 100% solution but maybe he could have a custom download page where each unique user had a unique id assigned to their ip and it would write it down inside of the resource pack itself (in the form of a hidden texture etc.) which the author can not only remove the download link from others through a request but could see who leaked it and terminate their download due to breaking the tos to further prevent future updates from being leaked by the guy.
Ofc all ips would be encrypted and not available to the author even
To be sincere, I would prefer people to really understand what's the wrong with illegally redistributing other's people work.
Some people just seem so proud of themselves while screwing other's people work, though.
Like if prevent young creators to benefit from their creative work is going to save humanity from some kind of injustice.
No surprise that talented and skilled artist end up migrating to other, more mature communities.

Curse PremiumThat's why it looks amazing, because it costs.
He just recently got his keyboard man, chill.
