Hey guys.

I've got a question, how do you make texture packs?

I've tried researching how to do it and I'm confused how to and don't know how exactly to do it. I know how to make Skins. They're easy. Load MCSkinEdit, create the skin, save and upload to minecraft account. Done. So how are texture packs done?

Please comment and explain to me. They must be a easy way or simple at least.

Thanks.

You have to edit the Minecraft Texture files. Go to C:UsersUserAppDataRoaming.minecraftbin and look for minecraft.jar. Open it with WinRar or any other archive program. Copy out the ARMOUR, ART, ENVIRONMENT,GUI,ITEM,MISC,MOB,TERRAIN,TITLE folders and the pack.png, pack.txt, particles.png and terrain.png. Put them in another folder somewhere. Then use Photoshop or Gimp (free) to edit the images you want. When you are done, put ALL the folders and files into a zip file(Use WinRar). Then go into Minecraft, click on texture packs and click open texture pack folder. Then drag the zip you made into the folder and boom, you are done.
