Texture pack help - not recognising textures!
Hi guys,
I have begun work on a texture pack, I presume I have got all the right files needed to make it: achievement, armor, art, environment, font, gui, item, misc, mob, textures, title, pack.png, pack.txt and particles (please inform me if I need something else or don't need something.
Now then, I have textured a few blocks with GIMP, and to see what they looked like I zipped up my TP folder and placed them in the texturepacks folder in .minecraft as usual. However, when I run minecraft and select my TP and load a world, only the default textures are there, not my customised ones!
If anyone could help me out here it would be great!
Many thanks,
Murray

i just realised this but i don't even have the zipfile in my texturepackfolder
I didn't work for me either the other week. So i made a folder inside the texturepack
folder with the name of my pack and extracted all the files from the zip into that folder.
And that worked
So murray!! make a folder inside the texturepack folder, give it the name of your TP
and then put the folders in there, see if that works mate.

Yes, zip the items inside the folder/pack/whatever they are in. Not the pack itself. I also am working on a texture pack and I had this problem too. You have to zip the stuff inside the folder, rather than the folder itself.
Hope this helped

Yes. Zip the folders (armor, art, gui, etc.), and then place the zip in your texture packs folder.
1
Ah, I understand, I will try it, but surely you want all the folders held within one folder? Sorry...
1
No not in a folder. You open the zip and you should see textures, gui, environment etc. Dont put them all in a folder

Anyone?

Make sure you zip the contents of the texture pack, not the texture pack itself. Meaning, when you open the zip, you should see a bunch of folders and files.
1
So you mean zip the folders inside the pack?

im trying to make animations on my texture pack on 1.5.2. but the block im working on is white and says textures missing .do i need mcpatcher to make animations.
1
Check if the block has the correct name and if its in the correct folder
Edit: actually if the block is not working than normally minecraft should revert to the default texture... Are you dragging them directly into the minecraft.jar??

Guys,
I think I may have found a reason, but I have no clue why it would be happening.
So I downloaded a texture pack, and I decided to see what happened if I put one of my textures in to replace another. I did that and the I zipped up the file. Then I placed it into the texturepacks folder, ran MC and clicked this texture pack (before I made my changes the tp was working). The TP with the modified texture didn't work.
I don't know if this is a internal error, or if it might be to do with the zipping up...?
Any thoughts on this?
Many thanks,
Murray

Make sure your item and block textures are unstitched, with all the textures in separate files in the /textures/blocks and /textures/items folders. Also make sure the files are saved as .png, not .PNG or .jpeg.
1
Okay, thanks I will try it out, by the way, what do you mean by 'unstitched' textures?

I think its something GIMP. I use GIMP,And it always changes the file type when I save it. E:G Its in PNG but GIMP makes it JPG.
1
Nope, GIMP isnt changing them... but thanks for your help!

you probably zipped the folder containing the other folders and not the folders themself
inside the zip you need to see the textures etc folders and not the folder containing them
