Smooth Vanilla is the default texture pack, with one subtle change: the low-frequency detail in many of the common textures has been reduced, and the dynamic range has been adjusted to compensate. This reduces the distracting tiling effect noticeable when viewing landscapes from a distance.

I had hoped he would update for the new pack, as I see the only problem is the new wood block colors come out pink because there is no texture for them prior.

The difference can only be seen at the distance. He re-did the default textures to look smoother and less grainy at a distance.

Would be great if you updated this pack.

If you're discontinuing it though, could I continue it then? I've updated the pack to Minecraft 1.0.0, s well as a few minor changes. I would give you credit, seeing as you started this pack. :)

Awesome texture pack! It's certainly simple, but I use it far more than anything else.

I actually decided to make a quick edit to make glass tile seamlessly like everything else:

I'm sure it won't be to everyone's tastes, but I figured someone else might want it: smoothvanilla_fixedglass.zip

I'm using the textures from the 1.8 preview texture that Jeb posted a couple of days ago, which still has the 1.7 mossy cobble. If the final release is different from Jeb's preview I'll update the pack to match.

I just downloaded a copy from the server and double-checked it -- it looks fine, but I’ve had occasional corrupted downloads from here in the past. Try downloading it again, and check the file size -- the complete zip file should be 170,469 bytes.

Some players are distracted by low-frequency features; some people prefer them. If you can't see them to begin with, then there's certainly no reason to use this pack.

Actually, I meant it more as a demonstration for other texture pack makers who might be interested in using a similar technique on their own packs. There are other packs where the low-frequency detail is a lot more pronounced, but it seemed less presumptuous to use the default pack as an example.

I used the high-pass filter in Photoshop to remove the low-frequency details; then I used curves and blend modes to restore the dynamic range and colors from the original textures.
