I think I need to tear a lot of Haven down and rebuild it from the ground up. I don't want to redo everything I've done so far but I've been stalling on updating this pack since like 1.18 and I just can't find the drive to do it. I load it into my game from time to time to try and get some of my inspiration back but a lot of times I wander around and just don't really like what I see anymore, and I think a lot of that just has to do with my style and texturing ability changing as the years went on.

Despite this, I don't want to let go of it just yet, but something definitely needs to change. I'm missing that creative momentum I had from the last overhaul I did and I want to feel excited about working on it again. Might need to step back and draft up some new concept art before I dive into it again...

I've been following this pack just because of the amazing GUI. I like the style overall, but you do what makes you happy with your art. I'll be eagerly waiting for an update whenever it arrives.

MarkiS_arts said 2023-11-11 15:30:21

till this could you at least release a mini-update with the textures youve already done?? like the mangrove stuff youve shown...

Really? I'm never out of ideas. If the muse isn't with Minecraft right now, find other ways to express yourself artistically. Might be time for get into graffiti, or painting (I literally do this). "When you put the pen down" is in your head. You have it or you don't. Just gotta be open to the muse and go where she goes. Never force it

I feel you buddy. Sometimes you just gotta do whatever feels right and hope the rest follows.

BrightMorning said 2023-10-17 07:39:20

This is an issue that happen to many people. Once you place down that pen, you place it down forever, creativity is hard to grab back, the burn out, there are ways to take it back and start fresh so you can let your mind goes free again. Maybe, a revision of your works?

I haven't made much progress with Haven lately, partly since I've been waiting for 1.20 to drop so I can properly update the biome colormaps, but in the meantime I've been tinkering a bit with a Default enhancement pack over the last few months or so.

I'll hopefully have a download ready for this in the near future. It's basically a mix of some light CTM, block randomization, some features ported over from Haven plus other projects that inspired me, and more. Also wanted to see if I could bring back some of Minecraft's old programmer art textures but in the style of modern minecraft pixel art (such as the melons for example)

I'm not planning on it being a huge overhaul of the game's textures, but moreso just an addon to enrich what's already in the game.

Late to the party, but it's something. I wish it was easier to show off mangrove roots in the natural biome.

1.20 has me inspired to work on texturing again. I really want to get cherry blossoms going in Haven now.

I'm still at a loss for how to re-design the warden for Haven tbh. I've really liked the vanilla design for it since the first deep dark trailers were released.

If you plan to do custom mob models, maybe keep it just make the model a little fancier. If not maybe just make the texture fit the texture pack a little? Just suggestions

I swear I plan on updating my packs >_<

I picked up a job a few months ago, on top of my commission queue so that's mostly what's been eating up a lot of my time right now. Sorry for the delays.

Not a texture pack update, but here's what was keeping me busy over the summer-fall. Got to make a bunch of custom stuff for Empires SMP, and figured I'd share since they just wrapped up Season 1!

Inspo for LDShadowlady's armorset came from LonksAdventures on twitter.

Oh hey, 1.17 is out. Awesome.

I'm probably going to have the new Haven update ready for tomorrow. Optifine released a preview version for 1.17pre-4 the other day and I've been going through and making sure things work (also sneaking in some last minute additions.)

I also need to take some time to make sure the bedrock port works since I decided to wait for the update to come out first before testing instead of testing it on the bedrock betas.

Not much longer now!

Been working on coral textures! Wanted to try adjusting the coral block color palette so it's more cohesive as well.

It's seriously been almost a year since I last updated Haven and I have no idea where the time went. It still feels like I posted it a couple weeks ago. I completely dropped the ball on the Bedrock port as well. (But apparently Bedrock supports custom block models now, so that's really exciting).

I don't have an ETA on anything honestly. I haven't forgotten about my packs and I want to keep working on them but I'm just so low on energy lately. I started crashing a lot more when December rolled around, and lately I kind of just end up finishing one or two major tasks a day and leaving it at that, because I can't concentrate well enough on anything. It's really frustrating.

I was excited to finally finish the overhaul to Player Villagers and get that out back in October, but then for some reason the pack would randomly break for people?? Like files in the pack would randomly get deleted, either during download, or after restarting minecraft with the pack active. I don't experience the problem myself, and I can't replicate it either, it's happening to way too many people for me to ignore it, and I have no idea what's causing it in the first place. It was just. Really demotivating to have all that work kind of fall apart on you, and I don't have many solutions that I can offer people aside from just redownloading the pack or reinstalling optifine/minecraft.

I'm not writing this up for pity or anything. I'll be fine in the end, and you don't have to worry. I just wanted to explain where my headspace is at and why I've been so inconsistent. I'll manage in the end, but real life and managing myself has to take priority for the time being.

honestly, I kinda feel like I'm in the same boat. mind you, I don't think I'm reaching quite as much of a limit as you are, but I would be lying to say that I haven't been taking my sweet time in doing things like, say, developing my starbound mod. and that's not just because I've also been a bit low on energy and motivation lately, but also because I've been having to juggle plenty of other things heh.
still, best of luck to you and no hard feelings, I for one can certainly wait on your texturepack updates, especially given your situation.

For those wondering about resource pack updates

I'm still chipping away at things. As bad luck would have it, I started coming down with something a little while after posting the Haven update last spring (not covid, don't worry).

It wasn't anything serious or damaging, but it did affect my sleep and focus enough that I couldn't get any work done, so I fell behind on a lot of things. The pandemic also made it a bit difficult to schedule appointments with doctors and I had to have a few visits before we figured out what was going on, and I finally got it treated around the end of August.

So I've basically been spending the last couple months catching up on the paid work and prior commitments to other people that I missed before getting back on track with resource pack stuff.

Just posting it here for those who were wondering! If your piglins and hoglins look broken in Haven, delete those textures for now and I'll try to get an update out soon. Been working on Blackstone blocks in the meantime.

ALRIGHT EVERYONE BUCKLE UP, GOOD OL' IRISH IS GONNA CLEAR UP THIS "HACKED SKINS" DRAMA:

You will not get hacked by using a skin you have created.

Its is pretty much impossible that you will get hacked by a skin by your friend.

And if you even were hacked, you would not lose your PC to "hackers".

Here is the official statement from Mojang.

But Irish! The Sun/Avast/Reddit said it's real! No, no, no. Every single one of those sources is basing their info on a single post from Avast. The post (From Avast) in question had very little research, and it quoted none of their sources. What does that tell you? That this is a big, overly dramatised mess.

The "hack" in question is a snippet of code that has been embedded into a .png. It is not some Trojan Horse or Kill Switch, and to make things even funnier: Minecraft can't even run the code. That's right, to run the hack, you would need to download another piece of software. So even if for some strange reason you do get a hacked skin (Unlikely), then you won't even get hacked.

Anyway, this mess is over. Mojang has patched their system, so your skins and meme folders are safe. You can all stop fear mongering now.
