I'm working on a texture pack that I feel is looking pretty good now. I was wondering if there is some kind of depository or something for custom texture packs?

if you want to upload it I think this would be a fitting place.

the screenshot looks nice so far, can you upload further ones maybe?

also, if you are interested in this, you could try and contact user BiGSiD, he made the Stranded 2.5 Mod which basically also improves many textures but also models and such. maybe you can help each other out to combine the best things of the mods of you both

I could keep going.. but that's good for now? Yes, that is the first island. And yeah, the fire looks just as good animating.

BiGSiD is quite busy at the moment, so you should try contacting user Jason13579 who is actually liably for BiGSiD's Mod.

That would be awesome.

Nice work, but nothing really new... Try BiGSiD's... (and improve it...!)

When I search BiGSiD I don't find anything he posted since '09.

See the links in my post above...

That said, Minecraft has 1000's of texturepacks... Isn't one more addition a good thing regardless? I checked out his name and looks like his hasn't posted since last year on thread I found with him... I can upload somewhere if someone know's a good uploade site.

I prefer a high quality texture pack instead of many low quality texture packs...

For what it's worth, here's another screenie.

Screenshots often allow only a rough assessment of textures... :p

Who tells me, that you're not using huge 8192x8192-textures which slow down the performance dramatically...?

I see General, Maps, and Mods sections not Downloads. At any rate, you, being the first person to respond, sound skeptical about these textures in reference to quality/resolution and my overall question about where to upload texture packs in the first place. Thank you again for your help here, but on second thought, maybe I'll just take my game production skills elsewhere.

As you said, you've seen these textures before.. somewhere... in some downloads section..somewhere.. so the best of luck to this community!

Don't take it amiss. Just already heard to much promises here...

And therefore scepticism seems to be quite appropriate...

Don't worry... just bad timing (for uploading new textures). And yes... the download section is not that neatly arranged and full of senseless stuff...

But we're still searching advanced developers for our mod - S2LiS... (if you like the topic 'future')

Also feel free to take part on other mods and help to improve that game.

Thanks again for showing me where the file section is. I replied your msg.

I just wanted to mention one other thing. I might still keep this as a separate texture pack as I'm not aiming for realism so much as just updating the look of the game for those with powerful PCs.

Either way I plan not to rush it.. I want to make sure I've played through the game a few times to see what still needs what and at the same time not make it too big of a download.

Also, I changed the fire sound to a softer crackle instead of the loud roar - I guess that should be a separate upload.

That's right. You have to play that game a few times if you want to have a good start with any modification of it.
