Wow, those fixed things are actually readable. One question though, what do I do to get them?
You can download the John Smith Technician's Remix Universal Pack from the link below, the Vanilla base pack that's included is a little out of date and does not contain the new font textures.
As a stop gap you can let Minecraft run two packs so you can get the current 1.7.10 Vanilla pack on the site below, just remember to have the Vanilla pack at the top of the list in the Resource Pack Select screen.
Also note that the glyph_sizes.bin is only loaded when you start Minecraft with the pack selected (Minecraft bug), so you have to load the game select the Resource Packs, exit the game and restart the client, then the font will be good.
I know it's a little messy at the moment, hopefully the base pack on the Modded site will get updated with the new stuff.
Well, I don't really know much about texture packs aside from downloading them and dragging them to the right folder, so... Really don't know how to do that. Would the way you suggested work with the ftb launcher?
If the options JimStoneCraft posted don't work for you, then all I can suggest is to learn how texture packs work and create your own. That may come across a little harsh, but it's not meant to be, it can be fun to learn these things, so you can then create what you want. I run the following packs:
Faithful32
Faithful32 modded
John Smith
John Smith modded
My own pack
Anything that's not in John Smith is covered, pretty much, by Faithful 32. Anything I change or add is in my pack. I have some textures dating back to the early alpha days when texture packs were one file, and I've brought them along this whole time.
For instance, the John Smith GUI graphics are really cool, but too dark for my taste (or my eyeballs can't deal with them, one or the other) so I extract the ones from Faithful 32 and place them in my own pack, so they are more vanilla, just higher resolution. So, yes, the game loads the Faithful 32 textures, loads the John Smith textures, then loads mine, which are copies of the Faithful 32. Redundant, but gets the look I want.
Get a (free) copy of 7zip, and unzip a texture pack to a folder on your desktop, and take a look at how it's put together, they are pretty basic, just a set of folders. Once you get the hang of it, making your own pack is pretty easy, and gets you exactly what you want.
The only thing to remember is that the FTB Launcher has it's own set of folders and resource packs are installed there, not the main Minecraft folder. If you've already adding a texture pack to an existing modpack install, then you know where that is.

I did everything you said, restarted minecraft after I chose the pack and all that, but the fonts are still really hard to read and some of the textures are diffirent than before.Like the dirt block doesn't have as smooth of a texture as it had before.
Edit: After a fourth restart, it seems to have worked, Thank you!

There are two versions for some of the blocks like the dirt, smooth stone and the ores, you would have to unzip the Resource pack and move the files yourself, they are in the Vanilla download in the directory listed below.
assets/minecraft/textures/blocks/alternates
Glad you got it working, I know it's a pain and hopefully it will be easier in the future.
Getting the pack to your liking is almost a game in itself, as Dweller_Benthos said a few posts back, it's well worth the effort.
John Smith Legacy Snapshot 15w49b, Health Boost & Absorption icons, bug fixes for the upside down stairs and Trip Wire, also finally sort out the dark text colour in the GUIs, it's now Gray rather than Black (didn't quite look right with white).
Plus general clean up of a few bit here and there, it's all in the changelog.
I've been releasing Snapshot packs each week and have also just updated the 1.8.8 packs too, with all the texture changes I've been adding to the snapshots.
Can you not edit the Front Page link?
I was actually coming here to ask why the 1.8 Git repo from the legacy page was empty, when I saw your post and discovered your completely seperate page.
May want to talk to the mods if you cannot, see if they can add a rider to the front page post with a link to your site as current maintainer for 1.8+
Using the latest version of Optifine, I have noticed that Connected Textures causes glass panes and blocks to appear as "Light Blue". Tested with the default textures just to see if Optifine was to blame, however the problem vanished.
As there are so many combination of these things, can you please list which versions of the following you are using:-
Minecraft
Optifine
Resource Pack
This would help greatly as I would be able to replicate and test.
Minecraft 1.8
Optifine 1.8 HD U G6
John Smith Legacy 1.8.8 v1.3.22
No need to apologise.
I cannot fined that exact version on the Optifine site, the two closest match's are list below, I guess if your using mods then it would be the 1.8.0 release.
Another update to Optifine came out yesterday "OptiFine 1.8.0 HD U G7" The problem still exists.
This is an old bug that I fixed on 30th April 2015 (v1.1.14), looks like it broke again.
lightBlue vs light_blue, MCPatcher vs Optifine.
You have to love the inconsistencies in the game again (this is an bug from months back), while lightBlue is the in game name, MCPatcher uses light_blue while Optifine uses lightBlue, I did have both listed on the properties files which worked in both MCPatcher and Optifine.
Now Optifine is making the glass all blue because of this,I follow the MCPatcher standard but as MCPatcher is not using the Mojang name I've now changed it to the Optifine version (lightBlue), this now fixes the blue glass issue but as a side effect the light blue glass is no longer ctm'd using MCPatcher.
It's either one or the other I'm afraid and I've now put it to the Optifine version, I've released v1.3.23 and JSC v1.1.23.
Hi! I was hoping if you could help me understand a copyright thing I'm trying to figure out.
When I look at the Curse Forge page for the JSTR pack, it says the pack is licensed under Apache License version 2.0, which I thought meant that users are free to modify or redistribute the licensed material provided they include the license and state the changes they've made. But when I look at the license.txt within the pack, it says that any redistribution is forbidden.
Could you clarify which license applies? Thanks so much
I'm working on a nearly-complete port of JohnSmith 32x32 Texture Pack for Minecraft Pocket Edition and it's looking really great. I'd like to ask for Official Permisson to Upload it on the MCPE Board here -With full credits linking back to the original thread of course. Let me know if that's okay.At the moment it's just for personal use but per forum rules I have to ask you first before I share.
I see no problem with you making a Pocket Edition release but I would say that as the other thread made a version first then it may be prudent to contact them and maybe work together as a team.
John Smith Legacy 1.8.9 v1.3.26, JSC v1.1.26 and snapshot 16w05b, some quality improvements and a total rework for the Cobblestone Stairs, they now look much better when going around corners and also better colour match and Stone Slabs.
Hello there guys! I was just wondering if anyone know of any Patches to JSTR that add decorative versions of for example colored clay, like the conquest pack.

To tell them how to live is to prevent them living.
This is a little off topic but I'm feeling generous.
Here's a quick test Resource Pack I put together, this is using MCPatcher's Grid method for colours.

See the Minecraft wiki for the Biome IDs and the MCPatcher wiki has quite a bit of information on what MCPatcher can do.

There's already a port of John Smith Legacy for the Minecraft Pocket Edition.

Yeah.. But that port is actually for an older version of the game, so i want to update it to the newest version which is 0.13.1
I see no problem with you making a Pocket Edition release but I would say that as the other thread made a version first then it may be prudent to contact them and maybe work together as a team.
