Don't remember when, but there was a graphical update in one of them that changed the way those worked. Perhaps if you can find a version before they were resource packs, it might work then.

The problem with using an older version of something like MCPatcher is that I've already tried using an older version, and it complains about lack of a correct minecraft directory (likely due to a lack of a minecraft.exe). Even new builds of MCPatcher have been compatible with older texture packs instead of resource packs, so I don't think that's the problem either.
I managed to get it working once by unpatching mcpatcher and finding a way to make the launcher stop reinstalling the JAR every time, but the problem I had with that was when using Optifine, HD fonts didn't work well at all. Since the last time I deleted the optifine-patched JAR I've been unable to replicate what I did to make the game functional with HD textures.
I felt nostalgic of the old world generation in minecraft so I decided to install 1.0.0, the first release of MineCraft I've played.
After a little while, I wanted to get the Faithful 32x32 pack installed. Currently using Faithful 1.2.x.
With the newest version of MCPatcher, I'm having issues getting some textures to work.
Is there any way I can get HD texture packs completely working in 1.0.0?
short answer, no.
