Hello all,

Hopefully someone can provide me with a easy solution as I'm pretty much out of options right now. We were able to convert our Texture Pack into a Resource Pack using the converter provided by Mojang, however, we are having difficulty with some users (I believe Mac users) having purple and black boxes in replacement for some animations like bucket of lava, lava flow, water flow, netherrack, etc.

Does anyone know of an easy solution for this? I tried patching it with McPatcher to no success.

Here's an example of what it looks like that I pulled from Google (At least I'm not the only one):

ANY suggestions will be much appreciated!!

It means that you are either missing your animation definitions (filename.png.mcmeta) or they are incorrect, or there is an issue with the file. If you get the .JSON wrong, or if your image has too many or too few vertical pixels you will have a missing texture. It could also be because of a wrong frames indexes, remember that the first frame is frame 0 (so the last frame index should be 1 less than the total number of frames).

To see for sure, open the launcher, and set it in your profile to stay open after game launch. Start the game (assuming your pack is selected), now go back to the launcher and select the "Development Console". You should see an event with [Client thread/ERROR] in it that tells you what the issue is.

I definitely have the texture in place when I look under the files - it's unusually strange! I remember having this issue a while back where fire was just a large block - but usually a quick fix of MCPatcher did the trick. Being it's automatically HD with Resource Packs - I'm not sure what else it could be =\

Yes, that does mean the block's texture is missing.
Could you provide the texture pack so I can take a look?

If it's coming like purple and black squares then that most probably means that the texture is missing, at least that's what I've heard.
