[WIP][24x] Sockthing's Aurora Texture Pack

[Sockthing]

So I've been playing around with mcpatcher and ctm. But currently I cant get my reeds working. I probably am doing something wrong.

here is my reeds property file.
Tiles 0-3 are the ones not working right now. Only the default reeds png is shown which is in /textures/blocks.
Tiles 4-7 are the yellow reeds. And they work, as you can see in the picture.

tiles=0-3
method=vertical
biomes=Swampland

tiles=4-7
method=vertical
biomes=Plains Jungle JungleHills

This is how tiles 0-3 look like working alone.

Can anyone help?

you need to have 2 properties files for them to work
check the Conquest thread under the mods and see how it was done: http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/145 ... done-phew/

[Sockthing]

thanks man! I got it working :D

too bad that you can't randomize the upper part in 1.5.2

Oh yeah.. I still dont know where I can find what features are in the mcpatcher for 1.5.2 and which ones are not. Do you know where I can find something like that?

[ion]

well most aren't. just check the mcpatcher thread and read the updates until 1.5.2

I made steak. Raw and Cooked.
Is it maybe too detailed for this pack?

[DiamondArms]

I think it looks fine. If you think it looks good, you should add it first and test the pack for a bit to figure out what works and what doesn't.

[Sockthing]

All three biome specific "sugar canes"


(Swamp&River, Jungle, Plains)

and probably more for other biomes planned :)

So jealous of your skills right now. I dream of being more than a stick figure drawing artist but I always fail.
Keep up the good work, I like what I've seen so far!

For creating a whole new texture pack from scratch, you're doing amazing.

Could we perhaps see how the wicker CTM looks?

When you first mentioned you were doing cartoonish textures I thought to myself. "Nah, not for me".
But upon seeing these images, I might use this one day, This looks very good.

[Sockthing]

worked on Block Dispenser, Dispenser and Furnace. I'll maybe change some details later.

So I have decided to remake everything I have done so far, since I am changing from 32x to 24x resolution. I was just not satisfied with 32x.
Anyway here are the first few items:

I'm so excited for this. The switch to 24x looks good.

[Gunnerman21]

..I didn't know 24x was possible! o.o

That looks really nice! :D

Thanks man!

Yeah, basically any resolution is possible. I dont know where people get the impression that it's not, I guess it was just natural to multiply the standart 16x by two and so on :P
There are even 7x packs out there, which is imo the smallest you should go, to get any characteristics into a block/item.
Minecraft basically takes your texture and stretches it over the block :)

[Sockthing]

Couldnt sleep, decided to make some arrows.
(Arrow, Rotten Arrow, Broadhead Arrow)

[Gunnerman21]

very shiny arrows :)

maybe the rotten arrow could be less green? Kinda just looks like an arrow with a plant on it.

[Gilberreke]

You're doing great man :)

[Mr_Hosed]

This is bloody gorgeous so far. I love the style you've kept across everything you've shown.

Question, is there any particular reason you're working in 24x or was it just a "let's try something different" decision?

Thanks man! Well I started this in 32x, but I was getting frustrated and somehow 32x felt too "big" and 16x too "small", so I went for the middle :)

Sock-ilocks then tried the momma bear's pixel size and thought that it was just right.
