Some of the potential DLC i've found mentioned in other offsite articles looks nice.
I'll definitely be getting the Fancy Blocks Pack. I mean, $9.99 is a bit much for so few new blocks, but the marble and obsidian tiles seem like they would be really nice for building.
The Bird Bundle looks good too, although from everything i've read, the cassowaries seem a little over powered. I hope they reveal what the beaks will be used for soon.
One question though, will i automatically get an Origin code for Minecraft once 1.8 comes around and the current launcher is phased out, or will i have to purchase it again if i want to continue playing? I mean, if i have to, i guess it's fair. I've had a good long run with minecraft as it is, so i guess i've gotten my money's worth. -

Do you ever stop and wonder what exactly went so wrong in Grum's life to traumatize him so badly that he feels the need to hide all the time? ...or is he a spy? -

You have to use the texture pack folder not the zip file. If your useing your texture pack as a zip file UN-zip it then run the converter.
Doing that seems to crash the converter. It just closes instantly when i do. -

13thMurder posted a message on Snapshot 13w24a Ready For Testing!The texture pack converter doesn't work. All it does is unzips my texture pack into a folder, turns some of the folders within the texture pack into unreadable corrupted generic files (it shows the type of file to be 'file', is the same name as the folder it replaced, and is 0bytes in size)Posted in: News
And it rearranges the names of a few textures improperly... needless to say it doesn't seem to work... unless the new format invloves using unzipped folders? -

13thMurder posted a message on Snapshot Support in the Curse Client, Now Beta Testing & MoreI'm not sure i understand the system...Posted in: News
So for example, do only the top 100 content creators of that month recieve any points at all, but give nothing to the less popular creators who are still getting a thousand or so downloads a month? or do the top content producers simply get more, but everyone getting downloads gets points?
Or, is it a matter of a certain amount of downloads translating to a certain amount of points added up at the end of the month by figuring out the ratio of total downloads to points in the pool, and distributing them accordingly?
Most content creators out there are using adf.ly. in what ways is this a better alternative? it's certainly intriguing, though reading the FAQ doesn't answer many questions i have about, in fact, it simply creates more.
One very important question i have:
Where does the money come from? Is it simply sharing the ad revenue with content creators because they are one of the main reasons the website is visited, or will this require people to pay to use the site, or download content? For example, i have a texture pack. It would of course be nice to get something in return for the huge amount of work it is making such a thing (this year puts the project at its one year mark) but at the same time, id rather my texture pack be available to anyone, not just those who can afford it, no matter how low the price, i would never charge people to use it. -

a good thing to use is the noscript addon. it helps to prevent malacious things from ads (and in websites in general) getting into your computer. if you click on dangerous ones, then what happens to you happens, so be careful. but if you come across bad ones that you avoid, then it keeps you a bit safer.
note: noscript isnt an adblocker, so youll still see ads. adblockers don't necessarially block scripts though, therefore if you are just using an adblocker you might just not be seeing ads that are still there, and if they're dangerous, they'll still be dangerous. with noscript, all of the scripts running on a page will be blocked until you choose to allow them, so if a website isnt working correctly, that may be why, you simply need to give noscript permission to let them through, which is easy to do. -

anyway, this seems like an amazing mod. i do quite a bit of photography irl, and ive actually searched for a camera mod before and always just found... well, nothing that was actually a camera mod. mostly things that modified the player's viewpoint.
this looks excellent. -

A while back, someone mentioned that my pack wasn't steampunk at all because it didn't have very many gears. Well, that's true, so i'm really trying to add more. There's a gear on every iron block.
But that's not all. I plan to go back and edit all of my old textures to have more gears. I may have to push back the next release a bit, since i have to edit almost everything.
Anyway, here's an updated donkey as well.

A pipe would definately work.

I actually had planned a staircase railing. I completely forgot about it. I even have the rough shape saved in the .xcf. I should make something of that.

I could of course use a few ideas for more coal lumps, if you have any really good ones. Because i'm all out, and was thinking of just putting more boards in.

I've already added one more coal varient, which is just a burnt 2x4 with some nails sticking out. But i think you're right. Testing it ingame, the stuff is everywhere. It needs tons of variation. A good 2-3 more should to the trick. Now, it's just a matter of figuring out what would work well for it... As for the reason for the chess knight, there really isn't one. I suppose when it's embedded in the block, the size becomes appearent and it moreso resembles a carousel horse's head. I guess that's just one of the surreal aspects of my pack. Although, if you think about it, the perspicuus does resemble a chess knight in a way... The arched back, and the long head, specifically.
Also, thank you so much for that

Give it some shadows where the stone overlaps the diamond lumps. Giving the diamond some shape wouldn't hurt as well. Try adding some hard lines of highlights, not in any particular shape, but just to give them some sort of geometry.

Vacuum tubes. 4 varients should be enough for something this rare, right?
I exaggerated the shading a bit so they stand out more. You don't want to miss any diamonds.
Also, i recently invested in music creator 6 on steam... yep, there will be custom music in my pack. Sounds too of course, but i've decided to get into making music. Now, i know nothing at all about music, but then i knew nothing at all about drawing or textures when i first started this pack, so like with everything else, i'll learn.
Also, coal ore:
Mostly burnt wooden stuff. There's actually a 5th varient that's just another burnt plank as well.

Also, i could use lapis ideas. I'm not so sure if keeping with the TARDIS idea would work... i mean, i'll almost definately keep it available as an addon, but in general i want it to be a viable building block.

If anyone's interested (since this mouse is absolutely amazing for texture work), it's a Logitech g400s. It's just a new version of what i had before. It took me forever, and dozens of returned mice to find one that actually worked well for texturing, so It runs about $50. It's supposedly a gaming mouse, and it works fine for gaming, but really isn't anything special in that department. The feet make it special. It sort of glides like it's on wet ice, which is actually not so good for gaming because it makes fast movements inaccurate, which is what the mouse was intended for, but it makes it great for free hand drawing, because it's easier to control when moving slowly.
I got the warranty this time though, so if this one dies as well (they use awful wires on these things) i'll get a new one pretty quick.
Anyway, i did coal ore today!
A chess knight head (like the item texture), a burnt bird skeleton, a tree branch, and some old floor boards... i suppose a little more variation for coal might not hurt. I might add in a few more broken planks and such as filler. Not sure if it needs it.

I really like the gritty shading style.

I'm assuming you have 8gb of ram? If so, you seem to have given minecraft ALL of it, which may be your issue. I reccomend lowering it to around 1-2gb.
Here's an example of how to change it:
