Wow it looks really nice, +1 to you friend and may development come along nicely.

Thank you! It's a bit frustrating in all honesty, but certainly very fun.

I'm having a bit of trouble with the side-grass shading right now. Going to have to fix it tomorrow, and I'll update this in the morning.

Use shading underneath the grass! This is what OneWingedPie meant, btw:

(it's from my pack when he made the same comment)
So, not shading ON the grass, but under it, where it should create a shadow on the dirt to create the illusion of depth.

Thanks for that example! I understand now. I fixed it up now, and it should be better.

Here's a two pictures of the edited side-grass and stone/cobble/mossy cobble:

EDIT: Woops, made a mistake. Reuploading pictures now.

Unfortunately I can't help much with your GUI problem, however there's another block for the side-grass texture for other biomes.

Column #7, Row #3 (from the left), just colour it like you did with your grass texture (the first texture in the terrain.png).

Looks good

Quote from iDyxl

I really like what you have done so far!
I love the dark grass and drit!

Thanks! I might retry dark grass sometime in the future when other textures are finished. But currently I think I'm going to stick with the lighter version.

Also, I edited the original post and added in an initial stone texture.

Oh I see. And for the photoshop demo, is it the full version, just in trial type?

For the most part - I believe it's a full version with a time limit. I could be mistaken though..

Quote from Gregoravich69

What?

I unstriked it for you. Basically GIMP and Paint.net are free programs, and Photoshop requires you to purchase it (or use a demo,or other means....)

Some free image editing software are: GIMP, Paint.net.

A paid image editing software that I personally use is Photoshop.

No, I meant the stone thats sticking out of the side of the mountain in the "new grass" spoilers in the OP. Is that your stone, or default?

I misunderstood your question, it is indeed the default stone.

Quote from OneWingedPie

well I hope its good!

It's an improvement over the first cobble stone, it doesn't look like the stones are bone-shaped (for the most part).

Quote from OneWingedPie

hmm... I dont have an example, and I cant really whip one up right now... sorry but under the sidegrass change the pencil opacity to 30 or lower then draw underneath sidegrass

I'll see what I can do.

Quote from GrassyFilth

It looks nice, I like the lighter grass better because the dark grass is a bit "harsh", and the lighter grass has less tiling problems. Also, is the stone in the "grass" spoilers, is that the stone you put in the previous posts? Because it looks very nice from afar. The stone looks ok in the posts, adding some more depth and variation in the colors would be nice.

Thanks for your opinions. Er if you mean the first image on my original post, then yeah my new cobble stone texture is based from that. I've modified it since post #6, I'll be posting up some more pictures later.

Quote from OneWingedPie

better but what I meant was shading underneath it, so the block has more depth

I'm not sure if I follow, could you give me an example?

Quote from BonreoCat

I would prefer the light version of dirt, because you colored it in a way that gives you a 3D effect. But I'm more like 65% Dark and 35% Light.

Hmm, okay. So I think I'll stick with light for now. Thanks!

Quote from OneWingedPie

I think the grass looks nice, but had an idea, use the old dirt for stone (of course recolour it first) it looks like it would suit

Oh and add some shadows under the sidegrass it will look better

Okay, so I've added in side-grass shading and adjusted my old dirt texture into cobblestone. Here's the result:

Thanks, and which do you prefer the dark version or light version of grass? I had the same thing in mind too, I'll try it for cobblestone.

I need opinions/suggestions/criticism on my first texture pack that I started working on.




July 30, 2012 Progress:
-Created dirt, grass, side-grass and cobblestone textures

July 31, 2012 Progress:
-Retouched cobblestone
-Added some shading to side-grass

August 1, 2012 Progress:
-Retouched stone texture a bit
-Created mossy cobblestone

August 2, 2012 Progress:
-Re-created mossy cobble stone
-Created Wooden Planks & Variations
-Shaded side-grass (needs to be fixed though)

August 3, 2012 Progress:
-Re-shaded side-grass

Priority List:
1) Check side-grass shading
2) Modify wood planks
3) Start on wood and their different variations
4) Start on sand/gravel and possibly bedrock
5) Start on slabs,bricks,solid blocks

I like the idea, but certainly needs more work. As mentioned above, no point in posting a basic outline. At least put some more effort before showing everyone your progress, else you're not showing much at all.

I hope you update this again, I'm interested in seeing how it will turn out.
