Hello all i want to make a texture pack.... but i need help.
I have been trying editing texures but it's not working. I've tried 2 ways.
1. i tried looking inside the minecraft.jar for the terrian to edit..... but i couldn't find it when i went in the terrain folder all i found was the moon and the sun.
2. The other way i tried was i went to painterly and made a texture pack but i wanted to make my own so i tried editing that then zipping it back up with winRAR then putting it in the texture pack folder(P.S. i checked before i edited it that it worked.) when i put it in the texture pack folder nothing happend.
i made sure i didn't edit the texturs size.
please help thanks :biggrin.gif: (ps if u help u'll get one :goldore:en )

For the first method, the terrain.png doesn't go inside the terrain folder, odd as that may seem. The file goes in the minecraft folder.
For the second method, can you provide a little more detail about what you mean by "nothing happened"? Do you mean the texture pack didn't appear in the game's selection screen? Or it did appear, but you couldn't select it? Or something else?

it didnt appear in the selection screen on the second one.
I've tried the second method as well, with no success... However I have always gotten the texture pack to show up in the texture packs/mods screen. Have you made sure it's a .zip and NOT a .rar? I had the same problem as you until I did that. My problem NOW is that the game always loads the defult textures, even when I'm 100% sure I selected the pack :tongue.gif:
Yeah, make sure it's a zip and not something else. Doublecheck it's in the correct folder. Doublecheck everything about it is identical to the other texture packs (except whatever you modified), including the pack.png and pack.txt.
If you have more than 4 or 5 packs, you'll have to scroll down to see them in the selection screen, and it won't scroll with the mousewheel; you have to click and drag.

i nthink it's somthing wrong with the way im zipping it because when i put it in the texture packfolder underneath it it says "WinRAR archive" and the ones i didnt touch don't.
Aha! That's the problem. Minecraft needs to read that .zip in order to use the texture pack; it can't read a .rar. I don't know how to tell WinRar to make a zip, since I don't use that program. 7-zipis a free, open source program that works very well. Whatever archiver program you use, it has to make that .rar into a .zip or the texture pack won't work.
