I found a post on the website "Planetminecraft" that redistributes the texture pack and claims it as their own. I filed a report for the moderators on the website to remove it. Here is the report if you are interested:
"I apologize if this is incorrect. But when I saw this, I felt that this post isn't right... The text had a white background, which appears naturally through copying from one place and pasting in the PMC description text box. After reading the comments posted by the poster, I feel his grammar does not match the post on Reddit. I was starting to get very suspicious...
Then I thought, "why is the pictures placed in the description when there is a place made especially for putting pictures there?". It could just be someone who doesn't know about it, and the user on PMC is actually the real creator, or it could be a really lazy person trying to steal the project and quickly put it on PMC without editing the pictures out. I was still suspicious.
"he text had a white background, which appears naturally through copying from one place and pasting in the PMC description text box." -Me in this report.
If he actually copied this, then I could copy it too, and put it in the google search field. It came up with a minecraft forum post. This confirmed my suspicions. The pictures were the exact same thing here as in the one in the Minecraft Forum post, put in the exact same order, this heavily indicates copied content.
Further more, the username. The username here on PMC appears to be the same username as the poster on Reddit, and the poster on the Minecraftforums. So it's obviously the same person. Well, here is my explanation: I cannot see how long a person has a member of PMC, but I can see how recently the user posted all their submissions. Very recently. Everything was posted either a few hours ago, or yesterday, not updated, posted. The texture was the first too, so obviously the person who wants to steal it, made an elaborate but inept setup. They their username the same username, posted the texture first without any modifications to the description copied and pasted from the Minecraftforums.
All the evidence provided points strongly in the direction that this was stolen
Please acknowledge this report.

If you have an account on Planetminecraft, I would suggest to help me prove that it's a fake in any way possible, or at least get the moderators on the website to see it. Note the note at the end of the post saying "In other words: - You may redistribute this pack and claim it as your own Just not On Planetminecraft Or MinecraftForum. - You may use this work for commercial purposes. - You may not alter, transform, or build upon this work."
Copier changed it up a little.
The cruel people in the world....
I am confident that that post is not posted by the real you, forgive me If I am wrong.
But on a happier note, I love this texturepack! It looks great and feels great. The sounds match the pack perfectly, keep up the good work!
This is not me. I cant believe someone would do that. I understand its deleted now but its still kinda crazy.
They look great! Another comment, the sounds you've added are amazing. I particularly love the door and zombie sounds. I love the pack so much, I'm planning a new series on youtube to exclusively use this pack
Bloody hell internet had a heart attack, sorry for the double post!
Check the name dude, 90% sure it's maffhew. Uses his old avatar too. You should ask the mods to get rid of your flag/report so it doesn't get taken down as it's a pain to sort out.
EDIT: Joined like a day ago or something though... Now I don't know what to think... D:
I would've been really embarrassed if I was wrong... D:
But I checked everything before flagging it. I was aware of the name, but the account was created very recently. Read my report to the moderators (I have lots more evidence than the contents of the report, but whatever. Too lazy :P), most of the evidence rules against the user on PMC. I was 95% sure it wasn't Maffhew.
Just saying this looks just like the smp texture pack.
Im gonna take that as a compliment but I completely disagree. SMP Revival and Chivalry have almost no relation. While we both are medieval themed; Colors, shading, and style are all off.
I love this texture pack but the stone axes and shovels look too similar to each other in my opinion. However, I like the custom sounds you put in this resource pack.
I've uploaded a quick 10 second video to show a difference between the water in v1 and v1.1
I personally like the original water a little better.. The water in v1.1 is missing the sort of 'shine' layer that v1 had, and is also darker. It makes the water seem like it's flowing really fast in a single direction, which is strange on flat small lakes like I have there.
Also, that little 'waterfall' I have there, you can see what I mean by the water animation being fast. The new 1.1 animations seem the same speed, but a little less smooth
Sorry if I come across picky, just trying to give my own input
If you stand in the water, you'll find that the animation speed is actually the same speed as it moves you or moves items so it makes sense. Plus it's water, IRL it would be flowing much, much faster than that.
The old water is from dokucraft btw, so it's good that it was replaced although I do agree that some more highlights (or the 'shine' layer as you're calling it :P) could be nice

Yeah I see the problem. I added a little sparkly animation and increased the brightness a little bit for the next update.

@HiggsBacon, dealt with the report, it's all good.
I love this pack, all the colors match up well. My favorite part of this pack is the Netherbrick. It's got that basalt texture that I've loved from the Tekkit / FTB modpacks. It's smooth and blends into the environment if you are wanting a more colorful look at your world. Being that it's a x16, it's hard to find good ones that aren't Painterly and this one definitely stands out among the rest. The font is really great as well.
Some things I don't really like about this pack is the wool and cobblestone. The colored wool sort of reminds me of another pack, but I'm not going to be harsh about that since you can only do so much with pixels. They really don't fit in with the rest of the pack, mostly because of the border. And the cobblestone is a bit bland compared to the brightness of the rest of the pack. Maybe try some other designs? Never hurts to have alternate textures.
Final Score: 9.25/10
Definitely keeping this one in my client, it's bright.
Of course! But you have to put a link into your description to this post.

Just goes to show how good your pack is that someone wants to rip it off

(You can see that 1.1 is accidently named 1.2)

I'll see what I can do to fix it for you.
Lookin' good!
