Unfortunately, I have more bad news.
I've decided to move on from this thread for the time being. I feel really guilty whenever I don't update this for a while, and ever since I lost access to Minecraft, that has increased exponentially. Every time I start to progress on developing this pack, something else gets in my way, and I feel it's unfair to keep going away from this thread. The solution I was waiting for is helping a lot with making the textures, but I still can't test them in-game, so I've decided to temporarily re-focus the pack into something I can use and test with, until I can go back to developing it in Minecraft. That means I will still be working on the pack, I just won't be submitting updates or info on this thread in the near future.
I'm sorry if I've caused trouble for any fans or followers I got here, but i'm hoping in the future I can show you a more complete project. That is, if Mojang stops adding more blocks then i'm making currently
I'm so sorry for the 4 month hiatus, i have a bit of bad news and good news.
The reasons I've had to take breaks from this before are gone now, i'm free to work on whatever i want. Unfortunately, i lost access to the laptop i was using before and i can't run Minecraft with what i have now, so i have no way of testing the textures i make. I'll start designing and sketching again at least, but until i get a better computer, development will be slow until things improve.
But i should have things to show until then, so there's that at least. i'm sorry again for the hiatus, here's hoping it's the last one
I really hate life sometimes, i activated another one of it's trap cards.
I'm not going to abandon this project again, but i can't work on it as much as i wanted to, i chose a bad time to get back to it, but at the same time i'm glad i did, it gave me the motivation i needed. Updates will slow down, but i'll try to not go 6 months without at least something to show, i'll try to do little bits at a time when i can.
But for now, here's what I've been working on, I've mainly been trying to figure out how alternative blocks work, i would love to have the system in the future after most of the other blocks are done
These textures look amazing! i didn't even realise alternative blocks like that were a thing, i'm definitely looking into it now. I can't wait to see how this progresses, i love the look of the textures so far
Small Update, mainly fixing the contrast problem i had, hopefully they look a bit better now
I had to rework the project files for the stone and dirt, and i had to completely remake the dirt with how i had it set up before, so that was fun.
But when i go through and reorganise the other textures, i can make tweaks like this really quickly, so hopefully i don't have a contrast or saturation problem again ^^ from what i could tell it was only the stone textures and the dirt that had the problem, if i missed anything please let me know.
V0.1 textures on the left, tweaked textures on the right
I've also been improving my sketches whenever i can, things are progressing nicely ^^
Well, the shading seems a bit too soft to me. Maybe that's the style you're going for, but cartoon packs usually have a lot contrast between shades (not too harsh though,)
I see what you mean, i think it's because when i converted the textures, i tweaked the coloring and shading a bit, i lightened some of the lines like in the stone and cobblestone textures, i thought the shading was a bit too harsh.
I didn't realise I made them a bit flat, i thought it was my new monitor that was making the stone textures seem like that, i can mess around with them a bit, see if i can fix the issue ^^ thanks for pointing it out
The textures look great, i love your tools and items so far i remember seeing you work on your old pack, i can't wait to see what else you do with this one ^^
Small update on V0.2, I've really gotten back into the rhythm of things, so many new ideas for textures
First blocks i started working on were the Crafting bench, Furnace, and the rest of the ore blocks. I was working on the workbench before, but i wasn't happy with the old sketches i had for it, so i redid it, and i have a new system for the sketches, a more unified, simple method
OP updated, and V0.1 is live! it took a bit more then i expected to do this, but the thread is now up to date, and completely out of hiatus. Work on V0.2 is already being started, since i had around 10 or so textures i was working on for V0.1, so i have somewhere to start ^^
This is a great pack. I love how it's cartoony like Sphax, because Sphax gets a bit boring after a while. Hopefully, this pack is still being worked on. The latest post is from June 2015 and the OP hasn't been active since October 2015.. I'd really love to see this pack develop more.
I'm glad you like the pack so far, I'm sorry for the hiatus, hopefully as i said in my last post, it won't happen this time around
Hello, i love seeing that people still have interest in this pack ^^ unfortunatly, life and other things got in the way of development and i haven't been able to work on more textures, and im now two versions out of date, the new textures alone scare me a bit with how many there are. But lately things have been slowing down, and my art skills and techniques have improved a lot, i can start working on this again. I love working on them, and i reworked all the textures into a different, cleaner system, and had some textures in the works before i had to stop, i can finish them off to get back into it ^^ I'm sorry for abandoning it as long as i did, but right now i need a project like this to get back into the rhythm of things
I'll update the op in the next few days, now that i know how to properly set it out, as well as update the version hopefully
You have quickly become one of my favorite artists, you are such an idol for me, i really hope i can become as talented and successful as you one day ^^
I am loving this pack, and i can't wait to see more of it
Right! this pack is out of hiatus Nevermind, stupid life stuff
I've finally finished the conversion of my textures, they're all vector based now, making them much cleaner and nicer looking When v0.1 is ready to be released, i'll be cleaning up this thread and setting out the OP how I wanted to in the first place, now that I know how to use the imgur album link
V0.1 is looking very good, but I have a big list of blocks to complete before I can consider releasing it. I have made some screenshots though ^^
Currently i'm working on quite a few textures, here's my todo list for the rest of V0.1:

I'm glad to hear it ^^ i've had a lot of fun working on this pack again!
They do? Should i make the shading a bit darker?
