It'll be quite useful if this was updated. Would most of the information for creating a pack (before creating the textures themselves) still be the same now though?
All of the stuff related to the terrain.png, file systems, etc. is changed. All the block and item textures are in their own separate files. The general premise is the same, though. Just mimic the file structure in the game's jar file, now found in /versions/<version number>.
wait i just figured out what TAU means (Texture Artist Union) and i understand that you would like a professional, no harm done, no feelings hurt. but i have a question, what would i be able to help even the slightest bit (contributing textures, giving tips, etc) or would just staying out be best?
Notice: I have no plans to update/overhaul this. I don't have nearly as much free time as I used to, and frankly I'm not as in-the-know about all aspects of texturing as I used to be. If someone would like to take over this thread, or start a replacement one, feel free. (If you want to do a takeover, please PM me)

Does anyone know a way to make transparency / translucent itens? If i reduce the opacity in things like particles it works fine, but in weapons its does not. can someone share some light on how can i enable it?
Currently this is not a feature of Minecraft or even MCPatcher. Minecraft won't allow you to do transparent items.

I did what she said & I PM her about it, she said I can create a replacement thread. It will be an updated version (for Minecraft versions 1.5+) & will be an overhaul too. It will include everything about texturing, it will even include Alvoria's Lightmaps Tutorial too (or at least a link to it). I will basically do what Steelfeathers has done(but just updated) & include how to create stuff for features like Connect Textures Mod(CTM), Better Glass, Random Mobs, Custom Colors, Better Skies, & Custom Item Textures(CIT)(a MCPatcher exclusive feature). I'll also add more.
Sssooo Summary:
Will update this thread in a different thread & include more features & tutorials too.
My updated Texturing Guide thread that I said I will create is here.
It's NOWHERE, currently, close to being done. BUT I will try my hardest to update Steelfeathers's guide & place it into my guide, & then add more stuff.

I doubt it will be unless someone takes up the mantle themselves.
Good point, but who would?
*Starts poking everybody on TAU*
I want somebody TAU certified, por favor. If you don't know that TAU is, please don't even try.
You can always help.
