[64x] [WIP][B69] Albion Texture Pack v3.02...C:

[Leosallespoli 338]

Thanks for the info, I will check on it...^^

Ok, some more rocks done, here is a rough preview for them.

Have in mind that some of the blocks are not set in stone (pun intended ), more work is needed. Any feedback is welcome, cheers...C:

Awesome, but, which is which? I guess basalt is the third and Gneiss is 12th... Marble is the last?

[Dante80 101]

Well, from left to right:

Granite, Diorite, Basalt, Andesite, Dacite, Siltstone, Claystone, Conglomerate, Chert, Quartzite, Schist, Gneis, Marble.

Some have changed already (Basalt cobble to this, Rough Marble to that).

[Leosallespoli 338]

Couldn't be better.

Well, I guess it could, but I don't know how hehe

[Dante80 101]

And a first attempt at matching planks with wooden doors.

OOHHOHOHOHHHHHH! Nice.... I see you are adding more shading and trying to make them more 3D. Any idea when this TP will be available for download?

[Dante80 101]

Thanks for the kind words. No idea really...this pack has a LOT of textures, and since I want to do sth more than just a hue shift with them it will definitely take some time until I can produce something decent. Today was my day off from work, and since the wife was...lets say conveniently far away for the day...I managed to put a good 8 hours to it.

Guess I could have a decent RC in about 20 more or so. C:

I don't really care WHEN this comes out. I am so happy to see you putting hard work and effort into this. That is all I need for now.

Quick where's the donate button?!

[Dante80 101]

Aww, thanks guys. Let me quote a response from a similar question some time ago...

I do not wish to monetize my work ever. This is a hobby for me, not a way to make money or be popular. Albion and Deuteros are open community projects that rely on community feedback to grow and become better. Through this process, I become better too. I am having a great time working on them, and never even thought of using them as a means to make money (I could make money, the total download number for them exceeds 100k this last year). XD

Especially regarding ad.fly, I prefer to pay for premium photobucket and mediafire accounts so that users can view and download my projects freely, than to get paid for having teenagers with a lack of computer skills find out what exactly is a tracking cookie, a malware script or a malicious active X/javascript component (sadly, with the state of adf.fly's screening lately, that is the norm, not the exception).

Having said that, if you reaaaaly want to support me, try the following:

1. Go to Misa's project page and donate. She is a far better artist than I can ever be, her realistic pack was the main inspiration for me to start Albion, I'm still using mob and gui placeholders from her pack and she is currently without a job (I think). C:

2. Learn more and maybe contribute to the organization I spend a serious chunk of both my time (and health) many years now: DwB C:

Regards and best wishes, Dante80...^^

you have decaded fan on your mc fourm post for the albion texture pack wanting it updated. told them that your where working on this with links to this thread. you might want to tell them your self though that you are working on this. again send this man money

[warfighter67 124]

TAKE MAH MONEY NAO!

Seriously, art like this should cost money!

WAY better than my attempt at porting over Misa's!

[Dante80 101]

Hehe, thanks for the kind words guys...

Ok, started to work a little on the terrablocks 2 sheet and...shit, 23 sand textures? O_o

On the other hand, this gives me an idea about emulating differing pebble and coarse sand textures for some of them. You can find sand in beaches after all, and I think that you can dual purpose the block for deserts too (if you are careful that is). What do you think? Should I stick to fine grained sand or try to experiment a bit?

In other news, first dirt block completed (sort of, I keep coming back to it), made to fit with rock salt formations. Here is a preview,...22 more to go (lol)

Disregard the fugly "Savannah" grass, its a wip placeholder.

Go ahead and experiment dude! It's a WIP, and if anything goes wrong, you can just fix it. That is the point of a WIP really, to take different directions, and see which one works best.

[vgcatsfan 5]

agree see what works best for you and see what will and will not work

[Dante80 101]

Well yes, of course. The main reason for hesitating is that in some biomes/environments gravel will be more difficult to spot in beaches. Will work on it.

Here a dirt preview for Chert.

[Dante80 101]

Ok, some work done on the dirt blocks. I am not entirely content with the outcome in some of them, more work is needed. As always, any feedback is vastly appreciated...^^

Here is a preview. I may also have to redo the clay deposits on some of the lighter tiles so that you can identify the seam from long distances.

Thats enough for today because....

...I found this while testing textures, off to explore!...XD

HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY!!!!!!! Is that on RaiserCraft? If so that is OUR mine. The All-Seeing Eye would like if you don't disturb his and his forum group's mine. It would rather not use its rainbow eye powers on you. You are a great asset to the community.

What are the coords of that place? I might be wrong, but we made some structures like that in our ravine mine...

Impressive, as you said the lighter colors with clay need work. But is difficult to give an opinion without seeing them in situ. If you could post some screenshots of 'biomes' would be great

Hehe thats SSP. But truly, that dolomite cave system is huge!

Also, just found a Limonite cluster....bye bye bronze, but first...time to texture it lol...XD

You are right man. I will post some environmental pics in my next play session...

I love everything! This is litterally the first hd texture pack that's not 32x that I actually think fits in minecraft! It's amazing! I disagree on low quality, this is amazing!

[warfighter67 124]

I love the dirt!!

I think the clay kinda looks slapped on though. Maybe you could blend the clay in with the dirt. A couple ways to suggest:

Blur the layer of the clay so there aren't defined 'edges' between dirt and clay

Make the whole block a clay color with a little bit of dirt showing through

[Dante80 101]

Thanks for the kind words. warfighter you are right, I have already changed the clay patterns to sth more natural looking...

Here are two variants I am currently working on for a "wet" clay deposit emulation.

Thoughts?

[oliverrook 2]

I live near a source of 4 different colors of clay. I think the 2nd one looks more acurate. The first one just looks to jagged and embossed to be wet clay.
