This is a great Texture pack, and I'm just going to say, the terrain is beautiful too. I spent forever looking for something with a good terrain. And now that my pack is patched, I have the beautiful trees and water and lava. You, sir, are good at this.
This reminds me, I had such a good idea for this pack the other night before I fell asleep, but guess what?
I forgot it D:
D: Oh well, maybe you will remember it sometime?
I don't know what it is about the pack, but I feel exactly the same way. There's something very pleasant about walking around with this pack on. Feels... tranquil? I don't know... It's hard to describe xD
finally a japanese texture pack !!! Was hoping somebody would do that some day!!
<3 u for that :wink.gif:
btw could u make the texturepack 32x32 or/and 64x64? that would make the pack even more awesome!
and how about making the wood a bit brighter? The buildings seem so dark far away :S
so keep up the good work!!!!
:biggrin.gif:
I'm planning on doing a 64x64 when I finish a bit more on this one, so don't worry about that!
I will make an alternate wood texture that's a bit lighter AND lighter, wooden framed ricepaper walls, doors etc. for people that want it like that!
Those HD armor textures were made by Richasackboy for the GeruDoku pack...not dorian858
.......
Looks like he's got some explaining to do then.... >.>
I'll try and contact Richasackboy and see if I can still use them then...
Thanks for the heads up!

After examining all these wonderful pics that folks have post, the pack is really shaping up. All the new additions look beautiful. I especially like the new saplings, well done sir. And the new paper lamps work really well, look a lot like what we spoke of.
@Tooki , those windows really look stunning. The windows, imo, really tie a whole pack together. When it comes to structures anyway i guess. Something was missing from the earlier windows, but i couldn't quite put my finger on it.
Well done, Salut !
Haven't had a chance to test out 0.75. But i shall make time. Maybe with some type of maniacal machine *deep, menacing below*.

Since 1.5_01 update broke all my mods and my saves because of more trees mod :[ I reinstalled this texture hopeing to see cherry blossoms but I see none how come? All my trees are green.

You'll have to install the texture pack with a texture patcher, or manually moving "misc\foliagecolor.png" into "minecraft.jar\misc".

Use MCPatcher, and repatch the game. You just have to hit the patch button again.
I am not entirely sure, but I think those are shinai (used in Kendo) and bokken are more commonly solid wood, oak and hickory-wood.
bokutō (japanska 木刀), kidachi (japanska 木太刀). Suburitō (japanska 素振り刀), suburi (japanska 素振り) are other names/terms used for them.
Correct. (Kendo/kenjutsu student here). Though the bokuto is typically the shorter, wakizashi-sized bokken, used when practicing niten-style (two-swords). I prefer to practice with the bokken, rather than the shinai, because it's balanced better and more like the real thing. When practicing alone, live steel is best of course.
And legends exist of master swordsman Musashi Miyamoto fashioning the first bokken out of a boat oar to face a swordsman waiting for him on the opposite shore... so they can and have been used as actual weapons in certain circumstances.
Kind of off-topic but I suppose it's relevant to custom wooden weapons in the game.

"Don't know why you should feel that there's something to learn... it's just a game that you play."
with each update, my world looks neater & neater! keep up the good work and as for the suggestions, diamonds to their contributors! i don't have a suggestion for the last open wool, but i do have a suggestion for the fence. usually when building a japanese style home, they sit on wooden stakes to keep from absorbing moisture from the ground since the floors are made of wood and tatami. putting fences right next to each other just makes it look like, well, fence. and that doesn't exactly look right.
Hmmmmm.... No clue about the wool (cyan, I think).
But I do have a GREAT idea for an alternate bed texture. Here it is.
It could be one of those tables that Japenese kneel at for meals or tea. I don;t know te exact name, but that would be awesome. I just was thinking that because theyre a half block, and so it would look better. The only downside is that you couldnt place anything on it.

Yea, those windows are fabulous!
In the next update there will be 4 types of those same windows but with slightly better tiling :smile.gif:
Might actually pump the update out today!

Might I request that you include a guide in the first post to explain how to make rice paper walls etc? Otherwise people have to keep going to page 4.
Yea, good idea :tongue.gif:
Going to do it as soon as I finish replying to everyone!

Hey there,
I'm new to this forums and just registered to answer in this thread. :wink.gif:
I really like this skin pack, but I have to admit that I'm not too keen on the armors as I'm more into samurai stuff than into ninja stuff. :biggrin.gif:
Might there be a chance that you'll release two versions of the pack, one ninja and one samurai version ?
You could then make samurai armors like these, which I found to look more "samurai-ish" as the shoulder plates look more like sode.
I hope you like this idea and keep on the great stuff !
Greetings,
Clone1710
Yea, I'm going to have to change up the armours a bit because the person who said they made them, didn't. I think I'll use these as a base (the samurai ones) then completely re-make them :smile.gif: That stops any copyright issues as well!

and btw, what do u think of making the fences like this ??
Unfortunately the fences can't be changed unless you change the wood which I really like at the moment xD
However, in the next update you will be able to make red wood as one of the wool colours and you could make a few of these!

wow some big improvements have been made while i was in my slumber...
i have yet to download the new pack but i will do that in a minute.
Quote from Tooki »
One thing I would like to see is the addition of roof tiles and thatch, but I don't know of any good way to accomplish that because I really want to have half-block and stair versions of those textures (a'la wood or stone) so that a proper slope could be achieved. Some sort of red-painted wood block is also needed to accurately depict a lot of temple and shrine architecture.
I had to pick up on this one because I think that there does need to be some kind of red painted wood aswell, and although i made wooden planks red painted, it does add a really awesome affect to roofing.
-snip-
also tooki your place looks amazing, really love what you did using the right textures and the edit of glass is a big improvement
would also like a legend in the guide to show us what every block becomes
for example: - [ picture of what ever red wool becomes ]
Yea the next update includes red wood, proper sized tatami mats, slatted windows (wooden or black) and a couple of other things :smile.gif:
I will make a guide for stuff later today when I release the next update as well. I had to change some stuff because of the added things but it works better this way!

Yea the wooden sword takes the shape of a bokken! Looks quite nice!
Just wish I could make slightly higher res tools without the need for a patcher. Would really help make the tools special :|

Yea, unfortunately the way fences work and are textured, is hardcoded into the game so there isn't anything I can do about that :sad.gif:
Thanks for the suggestion though!

Also sleeping on the table is gonna be a bit weird, but hey, who cares!
Ok everyone, busy making all the armours more like samurai and more unique! Trying to make them all different from the textures that I was given, which I am working off as a base.
Here are some pics (for the inventory ones, right click and open them in a new tab, otherwise the armour is too hard to see):
Black mask on this is from my skin.
Shoulder pads are changing :biggrin.gif:, working on knee pads and sandals now!
These are at alpha stage right now, still changing them!
I also tried to change the armors a little bit yesterday, here's mine:
This is the diamond version of the armor.
That picture is a thumbnail, not the full picture xD
Also, I have almost completely re-skinned the leather armour! Expect pictures as soon as it's complete. (working on shading for it now. Shape is done!)
Sexy work on them armors. Might I suggest you change the iron armor's face mask to some sort of 'mempo' instead of just being flat black?
Yea, it actually has detail on it (mouth, detail around the eyes, nose, etc) but it's way too hard to see... I think I might increase the contrast on that a little :smile.gif:

This TexPack is awesome.. But I'm not getting any Cherry Blossom (pink colored) trees (biomes). Using beta 1.4_01, to lazy to update. Am I doing something wrong -_-'?
You need to use the HD beta patcher :smile.gif:
There's a link at the bottom of the OP so just go and check out the thread, it'll explain how to use it!
Here are some pics of the leather with steve :smile.gif: (If anyone is wondering, I'm using the black clothed skin so I can have 'sleeves' when wearing the iron armour. Looks badass!)
Can't wait to put this on my character. :biggrin.gif:
:biggrin.gif:
Gold is basically done!
Just a couple more tweaks...
Sorry about the rain in these pictures btw, it's been going on for 2 minecraft days now O.o

Looks great though!
Any feedback about it?
