[QUOTE=spanaren;28782132]The bed looks weird. And so does the mineral blocks from above.[/QUOTE] What do you mean the bed looks weird. As for the mineral blocks there's not too much I can do about this. Honestly, I love the bed. Plants v1.2: [img]http://i1208.photobucket.com/albums/cc375/TheAmazingBouncinBrainTumor/Plantsv1.png[/img] Plants v1.2 Enlarged: [img]http://i1208.photobucket.com/albums/cc375/TheAmazingBouncinBrainTumor/Plantsv12Enlargedpng.png[/img] I didn't change the brown mushroom. I liked the smaller look to it.
[img]http://gyazo.com/97ad15f7e3963da98aa8b8594f1e1795.png[/img] Maybe it's just me, but half of the bed looks all dark then all of a sudden it goes bright on the second half. Get what I mean?
Its supposed to. Its like a folded over section. Its supposed to look like a different colored material.

Then it looks great!
[QUOTE=spanaren;28782545]Ahhhh now I get it. Then it looks great![/QUOTE] Thanks. I think it turned out well.
As much as I like this pack, for the mineral blocks, I still prefer Glimmer's. You'rs doesn't really fit with buildings, but if you can make them into actual blocks with certain look, then okay. If not, most likely I will combine this pack with Glimmer's, specially for my Deepground project. No offense.
I am thinking about making the mineral blocks more like some sort of building piece. Like iron being some sort of metal support or something. I made cactus. I included a variant with no flower for those with no soul.

I love this stuff.
I think the bed would look better red, black seems really dark.
Soul Sand: [img]http://i1208.photobucket.com/albums/cc375/TheAmazingBouncinBrainTumor/SoulSand.png[/img] Soul Sand Enlarged: [img]http://i1208.photobucket.com/albums/cc375/TheAmazingBouncinBrainTumor/SoulSandEnlarged.png[/img] [editline]24th March 2011[/editline] -Made glowstone more yellow- [editline]24th March 2011[/editline] [b]UPDATED TERRAIN FILE FOR 3/24/11[/b] Thanks for the feedback guys. I will be out of town until Saturday afternoon, so don't expect any updates until then.

you know theres already a steampunk style pack, and that it will probably overshadow you're pack.
I think that the leaves (whenever you get around to it) should be like a lot of dark green swirly vines.
[QUOTE=vyktar1;28786191]you know theres already a steampunk style pack, and that it will probably overshadow you're pack.[/QUOTE] 1: [b]Your[/b] grammar needs work 2: That pack is overly realistic and IMO just doesn't fit minecraft, this pack (so far) is much more fitting

I think the soul sand faces need to be more brown, and the red veins in the glowstone look really out of place; I think that glowstone needs to look more manufactured.
Can't wait for this pack!

Maybe make the iron blocks be a iron box with gears and stuff on it (maybe encased in glass) Perhaps the same could be done to the gold blocks too. I think riveted panels would look good too.
Yeah, riveted panels seems like the best choice
I like it the way it is, who the hell builds stuff out of mineral blocks anyway?
[QUOTE=Zamped;28826742]I like it the way it is, who the hell builds stuff out of mineral blocks anyway?[/QUOTE] Iron makes a good building material in real life... In addition, Iron makes a great building material in Minecraft. And to specifically answer your question, I do.
This isn't real life, I was talking about the texture pack. And it's a very ineffecient and ugly building material ingame(assuming you use the default pack).

I plan to make the mineral blocks as building pieces, but keep the current ones as variants for those who like them. Also, I updated both the glowstone and soul sand. I made the glowstone into more of a crystal block and blended the faces in the soul sand. v1.2 Glowstone and Soul Sand: [img]http://i1208.photobucket.com/albums/cc375/TheAmazingBouncinBrainTumor/v12glowstonesoulsand.png[/img] v1.2 Glowstone and Soul Sand Enlarged: [img]http://i1208.photobucket.com/albums/cc375/TheAmazingBouncinBrainTumor/v12glowstonesoulsandenlarged.png[/img]

I'm expecting great looking minecarts. [editline]26th March 2011[/editline] Also, I love the mineral blocks.
[QUOTE=johnlmonkey;28831447]That glowstone is amazing![/QUOTE] Why thank you :D [editline]26th March 2011[/editline] Added building-style mineral block variant for those who wanted them. I am keeping the ingot blocks as the default mineral block, but a variant has been added in the terrain.png Building-style Mineral Blocks: [img]http://i1208.photobucket.com/albums/cc375/TheAmazingBouncinBrainTumor/BuildingMineralBlocks.png[/img] Building-style Mineral Blocks Enlarged: [img]http://i1208.photobucket.com/albums/cc375/TheAmazingBouncinBrainTumor/BuildingMineralBlocksEnlarged.png[/img]

I like the default mineral blocks better, but these textures made the 'thud' sound of placing a mineral block seem a lot more fitting.
