    posted a message on Sn0wZ0ne 512X Hi-Res Texture / Resource Pack Hand-Painted Mosaic
    Sn0wZ0ne is simply a High-Resolution texture pack intended to transform the game of Minecraft into an immersive and lovely painting. It is somewhat realistic, but takes a lot of artistic liberty as it acts like a mosaic of tiny pieces of art that merge in-game into a single interactive piece of art. All of the textures are the original work of Sn0w Shepherd, with one texture component provided graciously by Hœnir the Silent. The beautiful tribal butterfly that adorns every chest/treasure box belongs to him and its inclusion in the pack is very much appreciated. I had a brilliant time painting all of these and hope that you will have just as much fun exploring and discovering them in your own gaming experiences.

    INSTALL

    Place the zip file into your resourcepacks folder under %appdata%/roaming/.minecraft and then start Minecraft from your choice of launcher. When the game has finished loading, click the Options button and then click Resource Packs. Select the Sn0wZ0ne Snow Leopard inspired icon and wait for the pack to load. This could take a minute or longer. Once it is loaded, you should see immediate changes. Click the DONE button and enjoy!

    NOTE

    Other versions and variations and TONS of MOD support coming very soon! I am doing ALL of this by myself, so this will take time. I tend to be slow at getting things done at times due to an illness that threatens to kill me. I will also try to get a decent assortment of screen shots and videos put together that feature the textures. I apologize sincerely for the poor introduction I have made to the pack, and am working hard to remedy all of my truly egregious mistakes.

    NOTE:Sn0wSong version 1.45 fixes certain volume issues with Mojang's default settings being incompatible with my original normalization levels. It replaces some of the sound effects for improved consistency. Also, two songs assigned to the 1.7x MENU music have been remastered to remove errant gain distortion.

    That is intentional volume levels for the Entity/Player/Attack sounds.


    I figured, with all of the PvP and multiplayer maps that these sounds would be stacking very heavily.


    Here's an alternate file to boost volume for single player and for increased loudness:


    https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7weI5zqPZuKQ0VpcGoyQTBwdVE/view?usp=sharing


    Just open the original Sn0wSong 2.0 zip file you have in your ResourcePacks folder, browse in the file to assets/minecraft/sounds/entity/player/attack and then drop the files in this ZIP file to overwrite what is in there. I am SO sorry for this.

    Better Sound and Music for Minecraft...
    MUCH, MUCH Better!

    UPDATED TO VERSION 2.0!!!

    Now replaces every Sound Effect and every Song all the way up to Minecraft 1.10.2!

    Still compatible with ALL versions of Minecraft!

    VERY easy to install!

    Sn0wSong is completely original and entirely engineered by Sn0wShepherd / Alecia Shepherd!

    The NO-HURT version is provided for anyone who feels bad or squeamish about hurting passive mobs/animals. So in NO-HURT, there are no whimpers, injury sounds or death-cries from PASSIVE MOBS like piggies duckins and moo moos...PERFECT for kids! Hostile mobs retain their hurt and death sound effects, however, because Zombies are just askin' for it!

    All of the music herein was also composed and performed by Sn0wShepherd / Alecia Shepherd!

    Every sound is replaced across all versions of the game, including UNDEAD EQUINE sounds!!! The sound pack adds very realistic sounds, all original music to records and ambient tracks, and offers a fresh and stunning new take on the entirety of the escapist world known as Minecraft. It is truly like playing an entirely different game!

    Vanilla sounds make the game feel like you are playing around inside a box of toys by comparison.

    SnowSong changes that by providing you an auditory expression that is both immersive and artistic.

    You WILL be amazed! You WILL be terrified! You will find yourself becoming more deeply engrossed and grossed out in the Mines and Biomes of the endless sandbox than ever before. And...hopefully...you're gonna love every bit of it!

    Features:

    • Works with ALL MODS! This ain't just for vanilla!
    • All music discs are replaced with original songs by Alecia M. Shepherd.

    • Nether-Specific Music!
    • End-Dimension-Specific Music!

    • Multiple versions to tailor your experience to your preferences with 60 full original tracks of MUSIC MUSIC MUSIC, precious blessed MUSIC, all composed in the midst of my most musically creative years!
    • No-Hurt version of Sn0wSong assures that you hear no screeches of pain or death from any of the real-to-life animals known as passive Mobs. Monsters still have injury and death sounds in this version! And new to Minecraft 1.10.2, Poley Burrs!!!

    It is finished!!!!!!!!


    I am working on the release art now and everything!


    My project controller, GreatOrator, will be updating everywhere the new Sn0wSong 2.0 THIS WEEKEND!!!!!!


    It took a lot of work, 100's of hours, and LOTS of time testing for volume levels and uniformity.


    I really can't wait for you all to get your hands on it!!!


    I hope you all love it!!!


    Check the OP all weekend or subscribe to this RSS to know when the official release hits!


    Next goal...to finish replacing ALL of the textures in the Sn0wZ0ne Total Conversion.


    Sn0wSong 2.0 sees total replacement of every song and sound effect in the game up to version 1.10.2!


    There are also TWO brand new full songs (to be featured in my upcoming 8th album eventually coing to Spotify/iTunes/CDBaby, etc, called "SYRUP 128") but you guys get these two songs FIRST! You'll hear them in the Title Screen Menu.


    The three new cave ambient tracks are AWESOME chiller-spooky!


    The Shulkers have a BIG surprise inside!


    And believe it or not, I did the Pollie Burrs sounds with my own voice! You'll have to hear the to disbelieve it!


    Remember, I am just a little disabled girl.


    Textures coming SOON SOON SOON!


    Also watch for my involvement in #FallCraft as I am doing the full Soundtrack for it, too!


    ALSO, check #TolkienCraftII #TolkienCraft2 as I completed the entire soundtrack of that most magnificent of all Mod Packs and Map Pack total conversions! I am SO honored to be a part of such amazing projects! I truly am! I can only hope and pray that my works is appreciated by some. :D


    Like it, love it? Share it, give it away for free to everyone you love or hate! :D


    I LOVE ALL OF YOU!


    Post in this forum any suggestions for possible changes or improvements to Sn0wSong 2.0, and keep your eyes open for eventual updates to Sn0wZ0ne textures.


    I will release Sn0wZ0ne texture in small doses, though...like each time I finish a mob. I wish I could code so I could make a super-simple installer to add the textures to the pack easily with each mini-update.


    Also please let me know if there are any Textures you think I could have done better in the original set. I made a LOT of changes to the materials blocks that may not have gotten published yet in the updates section, but they are in the most current version of the files available for download.


    Let's make Sn0wSong 2.0 blow up all over the place! I would love to see it used at least once in every modded Minecraft there is...whether kept or kicked. :D


    SO much love!


    <3

    OOOPS! I forgot to mention #DraconicEvolution


    I did the voxel models and some SFX for that TREMENDOUS MOD!!!


    Grab all those stuffs and have SO much fun!

    I can't wait for you all to have the new version! I've been working super hard on this!


    I also intend to release with at least one brand new song in the pack set to top priority pick on the Menu screen.


    It's gonna be amazing! Thank you all for being so patient. The wait is nearly over.

    WHOA!!! (tee hee)

    Parts of that Matrix song are really similar to my Nether song! I had no idea, actually. There's always the chance that something gets stuck subliminally in an artist's head, though. LOL! I LOVE The Matrix, but only watched 2 & 3 a few times each. I have a LOT of theories about The Matrix, too. Such a great film based off a graphic novel based off a sci-fi novel from the 80's.

    Sn0wSong 1.99m is on it's way!


    I am about 45% through the new sounds added to Minecraft 1.9.4.


    I've been having a lot of health problems, but I am on a roll, now, getting the SFX finished.


    After those are done, I will be finishing the textures as well.


    I am so sorry for all the delays. I truly am! But I just recently got fitted for an electrical wheelchair and now they want to swap that for a scooter so I am hobbling about as best I can.


    I love all you guys! It means SO much to me to hear you are all enjoying the songs and the sounds and the art.


    God willing, it WILL be done SOON!


    You guys are the best!!!!

    All of the songs are my own original compositions and performances.


    No worries about copyrights.


    1.9 version of the SFX will be coming along soon.


    I do not know why you would be experiencing any lag as a result of loading only the sounds into your resource packs, though. But I have noticed that there is a JAVA limit that prevents MC 1.8.x from loading my textures. MC 1.7.x loads them just fine, but it seems that tiny bit extra from adding the Guardians is all it takes to crush to poor thing. But that is just at 512x so far. Lower resolution versions of the textures, when i finish them, should hopefully load without problem.


    All 1.8.x Mobs have been added already.


    As for how I record...I have a cornucopia of items, techniques and my own studio. It's a LOT of work and requires a lot of creativity and tweaking to get just the right sounds AND have them fit into the game just right with the animations, and remain seamlessly a part of an overall SOUND.

    Sorry it's taking so long. I am terminally ill and been fighting a lot of battles lately.
