If i must vote for a pack in the list, i vote for Cisoun's texture pack because MT needs to be different than minecraft.
You can edit your post and add me to the list. :)

But IMHO monsters and tools sucks in cisoun's texture pack so mix all we have is a better solution.

you can define one not on the list but it should be minetest related the only reason i didnt add yours is because it haddent existed in minetest but can be converted so i think ill add your first suggestion

Ok thanks sdzen. So i'm going to make a full pack with Ardorcraft textures and mine.

This isn't going anywhere. But oh well, as long as the texture pack ISN'T minecraft or whatever, I'm fine with it.

I like the Minetoon one:)

Im voting for Gaming4JC's Almost MC pack, just needs a lttile polish, that's all.

Why not mix some textures from the bests packs to create one another?

I think it's the right way too.

+1. Like I said in my previous reply, I'd like to see a mix between "Almost MC" and your texture package.

Yes, I would like to see the stylings from mixed packs.

New user here, I only started playing MT a week ago. Also, I never played MineCraft, so I think I´m relatively unbiased towards it being similar or different concerning the looks by the way.

By now I have checked out all the texture packs which were posted in this section (given that the links still worked).

One of my favourites is MineToon, but that has a pretty distinct style and while it is really neat I don´t think it should be the "official" default. In fact, the current default is really decent and generic, so I´ll vote for it. The only thing which bothers me about it is that the MESE blocks have written MESE on them - that looks extremely makeshift and therefore unprofessional. Decide on a color, make some funky texture based on stone and, for example, yellow, and there you have your MESE blocks. It is supposed to be some natural resource, right? Unless it was buried underground by some ancient civilization or aliens it shouldn´t have letters on it, that only kills immersion.

I also like the 4x4 pack, but that might be too minimalistic considering crafting more complex items.

I might start working on my own texture pack soon... see what you guys think too, but for now I vote for Almost MC, 2nd for that... ancient looking one, I don't remember what its called and don't feel like scrolling back...but I did type this long ass sentence here <-. Good night :/

I vote for Cisoun's Texture Pack because in addition to being beautiful, it is also very consistent and very neat.

made this specifically because of this thread.
Defaults Redefined v0.1(texture pack)- http://www.mediafire.com/?249dk9ffjszz5ed
this is what i think the defaults should look like, furnace needs animation when on and off tho.

I don't really care about what texture pack it will be in the end... Just one thing:
KEEP MESE!
It's the best joke of the game, if it looks like diamonds it would be quite unlogical (also mese sword, mese tools and mesecons would be nonsense).
Of course you can draw it in a different way, but keep it yellow! Also keep the word mese, please. :D

Personally, I love the mintoon pack. but i would keep the default textures. Their super easy to change.

I like the current default textures best.

I actually use a texture pack containing all the default textures to override custom texture packs used on some other servers.

Also, this. Is it too late to get mese changed back before the next stable release?

This is a really old thread, it was about changing the old textures that are used in minimal now. The result was changing them to cisouns, which is what is used in minetest_game now.

But I agree, I really want mese back as it was. I don't mind having a dense mese block and mese fragments, but the yellow block with "mese" scrawled on it has been in minetest for eons. Keep the block and fragments and replace the silly crystals with normal mese and I'll be happy.

Menche: To be honest, yes mese should be kept like it was. I think you should get a lump then smelt that into an ingot.
Mese crystals just sounds....unright.

Agreed Josh.

yeah but mese is special

Oops. I don't visit this section of the forum that often, and for some reason, this looked like a fresh topic.

Jeija's comment must have been about that tan version of mese then, not the new crystals. My bad.

So this is over, and we're keeping the keeping the textures we have now? Awesome.

Mese WAS special, until it was changed into a crystal.

Mese is only special in it's original form, and only because of it's history and sentimental value. As a crystal/ore, it is meaningless. We might as well turn poptart cats into an ore too.

In fact .... I think I'll do that when I have time, just to see if anyone jumps on THAT bandwagon. Mine will be a plugin though, not a pull request, so it won't alter the flow of Minetest development. Rainbow ore will of course also be included.

If people could please stop posting to this? the thread is completely irrelevant now and in fact should be deleted.
