TODO
----------
- Compass (red pointer into blue; comes with v1.2)
- Redstone Lamp
- Target Block
- I may change Command Blocks' colours, still have to figure out if I should, and with which colours.
- I shall see about what is still missing for this specific partial pack of BLUE LOVE, and you can of course provide me with your input what you think could still fit in here!!
I plan to change specific items, mobs or specific, individual blocks which contain something Red in my general BLUE LOVE pack, e.g. TNT, spider eyes (on mob as well as the item), cake, berries etc., not for this pack here.


Base of Blue Redstone pack is that usually the component that gets recoloured into Blue (or Orange-Yellow) should contain Redstone as crafting ingredient.


BlueRedstone colours all Redstone components which have a red or green colour, in Blue and Yellow(ish or Yellow-orangeish) or clear/transparent, sometimes with a blueish hue, respectively.
Please note that real blue redstone wire as well as blue redstone particles are currently not possible by Vanilla means due to it being hardcoded, hence you will need OPTIFINE in order to see those in blue!!!
Also please note: Currently there's an Optifine bug which is why Redstone particles always look Red. Will be fixed in a future Optifine version, it's not fault of the pack or on your end!)

BlueRedstone is part of my WiP pack BLUE LOVE.


Goal of BLUE LOVE is also, to facilitate gaming in Minecraft for people who got difficulties in differentiating between the colours Red and Green, so called "colour-blindness", which is, in fact, on a spectrum and only comparably rarely results in seeing basically only 2 of 3 colours / light waves (simplified: Red, Green, Blue), resulting in not being able to differentiate colours properly, and making Minecraft worlds look rather dull.

Due that that deficiency, the Nether looks as if in mostly gray-scale, and also forests got a dull, olive-green, muddy "swamp-like" tint, and also Redstone builds look rather bland and boring.

There are nearly 10% males affected with red-green-colour problems, and I'd love to bring a bit more colour into their MC life!

As those affected can see pure blue as well as pure yellow the best and brightest, BLUE LOVE will use those colours as main colours, if it's about hints to differentiate blocks, block states, but also other indicators which I will reveal at a later point, in another BLUE LOVE pack.

However, BLUE LOVE is still majorly dedicated to people who simply love the colour Blue.
I started with a resource pack addon series called iSIGHT which is specifically created for people with colour vision deficiencies, and doesn't solely rely on the colour Blue (and Yellow, respectively).

If you suffer from a mild or severe colour vision deficiency, but still would like to keep the look of Minecraft more Vanilla, please check out my WiP packs iSIGHT here on my PMC portfolio, as those may be better suited for you than BLUE LOVE.


There are several BLUE LOVE addons planned.

You'll find the link to the BLUE LOVE WiP pack also here in this post, eventually.

Enjoy!

I didn't quit, I'm still at it, just a lot on my plate due to IRL, and got to sort myself out as a Youtuber as well.
I plan to explain everythng in videos and will continue to update resource packs as much as my time allows.

Wow this is quite the pack! I absolutely love the color. Although I do have a suggestion, could you maybe change redstone lamps as well? Also I think it'd be cool if redstone dust was more of a clean line instead of the vanilla style.

Hello Vipely, you are absolutely right, RS lamps need RS to be crafted, so RS lamps need to be coloured Blue, too! :)
I also still have to recolour the compass graphics, plus after I released this pack the target block got implemented, need to add that, too.
As for the clean line, do you mean like in my iRED Default/Vanilla pack? Here: https://www.planetminecraft.com/texture-pack/iredstone-default

I want to create iBLUE as well, means there will be a blue equivalent to my iRED indicator pack :)
But I currently prioritize iRED as well as iSIGHT (packs for colourblind people), so I cannot dedicate much time to update all my packs currently.

The reason why I did not make RS wire a line is that I want to keep this pack here as close to Vanilla as possible, however, as soon as I will add Blue Redstone to my iSIGHT pack for people who got trouble with colours Red (<-!) and Green, I will colour even more Blue, e.g. also cake (also a RS component after all ;)) as well as TNT! And I might consider also adding RS wire as line, but I'll have to talk this through with my "extremely Vanilla" group of friends, what they think about it :)

Thank you very much for your input! It makes me happy you like the colour I chose for Blue that much, I very much love it, too!

Have a great weekend,
Meri

Thx for replying! Haha sorry for late reply but anyways, yeah I realize it only changes the colour but not the texture so I can use any other texture pack to change the look of it, and yeah I get why you'd want it vanilla style.

Yes, eventually, there are a couple blocks missing, e.g. the target block.
I currently focus on iSIGHT, helper pack addons for people with colour vision deficiency, that got priority; after that I will update iRED, clear GUIs and Blue Redstone :)

You should also change the particle effect, if you could. Probably not, because I think it reuses the simple smoke particle, and colors it red.

Hello, I mentioned it not only in this post's description here on PMC:
"Please note that real blue redstone wire as well as blue redstone particles are currently not possible by Vanilla means due to it being hardcoded, hence you will need OPTIFINE in order to see those in blue!!!
Also please note: Currently there's an Optifine bug which is why Redstone particles always look Red. Will be fixed in a future Optifine version, it's not fault of the pack or on your end!)
"
but I also said it in the video that there is currently an Optifine bug which is why the particle colour still appears Red, although I coloured it already Blue :) It's on the OF bugtracker and will hopefully fixed asap, but there are more urgent bugs to fix beforehand, I fear, so it might be a while until we can see blue particles :/

Unfortunately, in Vanilla the particle colour of Redstone is hardcoded (I also mention that in the video), hence I cannot change it otherwise, solely via Optifine, but, like I said, there's that bug since a while which we have to wait that it'll get fixed!
