My friends have been pestering me lately to start up a Minecraft server so I'm here hunting for the texture pack to use as the "official" pack for the server. A long time ago we had a wonderful one but it doesn't seem to be updated anymore, made great use of colored wool for building materials instead of just colored blocks, but that's in the past.
Anyway, with the hundreds of texture packs on this site, it's taking a very long time to sift through them all. I was wondering if anybody had a particular texture pack they love for making cobblestone more useful instead of the eyesore it normally is. Most of my group prefers to build in cobblestone instead of taking the time to get sandstone (yay sandstone! ) so I figured I would see what I could find for them.
Thank you in advance. In the mean time, back to the stickies and hunting I go :smile.gif:

ANy of the x128 or x256 packs are great. I suggest LB Photorealism, or Misa's.

That's tough. Personally, I would say Dokucraft, but being HD, it may make your server lag. It makes my Minecraft lag without being on a server and with all the graphics turned down -.- because my computer sucks. If youre looking for 16x I'd have to say, either Mini Dokucraft (although there is no stone brick texture which annoys me) or SMP revival. Those have the best looking cobblestone and wood in my personal opinion......
A good 16x16 texture pack would be Jolicraft
The cobblestone looks amazing

So you wake up on a beach one day, and remember NOTHING. (Except your degree teachings in Engineering, Wilderness Survival, Metal work, Physics, Tech, Psychology, History, Dynamics, and Blocks.) You mine and build and survive for years and years.
Wow, that was fast, thanks. I'm already browsing the ones mentioned, some are definitely interesting. Leaning towards the ones that have a more bricklike cobblestone vs the ones that have rounded stone or don't really look like you could build a tower out of them or the like. Being HD is fine, at least on my machine, should be ok on my friends also but I suppose you never know.
Like i will state once again,Jolicraft is Awesome!

Since everyone is rebumping, I'll add another.
This is what it looks like as a tower, minus the floating workbench. The screen was actually for showcasing my new wood.
Honestly don't like jolicraft, not because of the cobblestone, but because my building material (sandstone) looks strange :tongue.gif: Still may use it if the rest of my friends prefer it.
Sorry kabonos, not that fond of yours. It's very pretty but the cobblestone still looks like cobblestone instead of a normal bricklike building material.

Well to each his own, but that's what stone bricks are for.
Yes actually, I may end up having to change my hunting criteria now and see if I can find a texture pack that makes colored wools a useful building material. Can't have it be too easy after all.

The video shows cobblestone being normal but the pics seem to show it being bricklike, hard to tell which is current, but maybe I'm just blind.
As for Lost Valley, it's not bad, I may end up digging into it more depending on which cobblestone Aza is currently using.
[edit] Bleh, yup, normal cobblestone /sad panda

I have not played for a while, did not even know stone brick was in the game, I had to look up what you were talking about lol.
That should make it quite a bit easier for you.

You had to choose my weakest point.
