Hey all!
It's time for another update, and as decided from the recent poll in the Discord community, this time the Snow/Ice Biome is covered.
What's New?
Snow/Ice Biome, updated Grass Block Side variation and updated pack icons.
Snow/Ice textures
I wanted to do this for so long, and it's finally here, all snow and type of ice textures are now in the game, the ice texture was already done, but it was very outdated and had a completely different feel than how the texture pack style changed overtime, nevertheless it's been revamped and also ice textures like Frosted Ice which you get when walking on water with Frosted Walker Enchantment is now also covered with all their destroy stages, Powdered Snow was really fun, I took the inspiration from the Old Rise of the Tomb Raider game for its texture, Blue Ice is more of an opaque version of the regular Ice texture but is not the same, the textures are also slightly different.
Snow textures have a little bit of depth and variation, I didn't want to keep it very simple but also not make it very bumpy, Grass Block Side texture has the same snow texture blended onto it.
Grass Block Side variation
While working on Grass Block Snow texture, I noticed I could change something in my workflow of that texture which saved me a lot of time in that texture, using the same technique I was able to get very decent variation change in Grass Block Side texture while still keeping it seamless.
Updated pack icons
Minor change but something to hopefully make the packs less confusing now, the pack icons are now updated respectively to their names, Basic pack is now the Gold Ore texture just like in all my other texture packs, the bonus pack now has a plus sign made from gold, and the Foliage pack icon is a golden leaf.
And that's it for this update, as always thanks to all the Patreon and Gumraod supporters, I'll try my best to provide you more quality updates of this project and take account of any feedback you provide.
