Emerald Sword

So I had all of the textures except for the held spear, and then guess what? Poof. They’re gone. AAASJRNEKWIABEUWVWUEBRJFJKREHBEBWJ THEU TOOK SO LONG I DONT WANT TODO THEM AGAIN

"dude, where's all our emeralds?"



Me looking at bro after use them all to trade a single sword:

































So he lowkey cracked me-

That first picture of you makes you look like Luke Skywalker from "Return of the Jedi" with the black clothes and green lightsaber, which I think is really COOL! The emerald sword looks awesome!

🍻 on doing your first resource pack.

That the pack took much longer than the texture isn't surprising, figuring out the needed folder structure and the mcmeta formatting is not as straightforward as it might be. (Fortunately, most of this translates to future packs.)

One critical error is that the zip in the download does not work:
what needs to be put in the resource folder is the Emerald Sword 2.0 folder that is the sole top level folder of the zip. [Don't feel bad about this, I did the same thing with my first published pack ( Improved Directional Glazed Magenta Terracotta [​which I really ought get around to fixing 😗] )]

Less important, it also won't work before 1.13 (when the resource pack folder textures/items got renamed to textures/item ) [​pack version #4]. This particular issue can't be fixed with overlays as those weren't added until 1.20.2 [​pack version #18]

Something you may find helpful to do is changing the way you format the mcmeta (and any JSON) files; this is your pack.mcmeta reformatted in my standard style: {"pack":{
"pack_format":75,
"supported_formats":{"min_inclusive":1,"max_inclusive":9999},
"min_format":1,
"max_format":9999,
"description":"the pack.png took longer than the actual texture by like at least 7x\nBy Ne0N64 @Neo64 on PMC and SBG"
}
}
This has absolutely no functional effect, but makes proofreading far easier. (There isn't anything magic about the specifics of the line breaks and spaces, they are just what I find convenient.)

WRT getting a pic of the texture itself; you can open and manipulate the netherite_sword.png file, adding titles & whatnot (or just use that png itself)

yippee
