Server Texture Pack
By: Bla Date: March 24, 2013, 5:47 am
---------------------------------------------------------
The stupid icons on maps made me annoyed yesterday, all copies
of the maps in item stands blocking large areas and the
ridiculously big size of player arrows, but I realized a
solution. You could just edit the icons or remove them entirely
in a texture pack.
I made a texture pack for myself based on Faithful 32x32 plus
with round Sun and Moon and some edited map icons. Making the
whole texture pack with everything from items to blocks official
Blacraft textures would probably annoy some people I could
imagine, but do you like the idea of having the custom map icons
as server-wide textures? Many people might not look into texture
packs, so I think they would benefit from the edited icons
rather than having maps filled with completely pointless, green
arrows and not knowing how to get rid of them.
Here they are so you can compare them. Default is left, center
is my edited one which shows itemframes with copies of the map
as small yellow dots, right is my edited one which doesn't show
item frames. Because the forum background is black, you may want
to open the images in another tab or download them so you can
see the black outline of the icons.

Here is an example of how a map with the center textures looks
(the yellow dot is smaller than one pixel on the map, so you can
see what color the pixel behind it is):

well if the official texture is optional, then i don't really
care
if it's mandatory, then as long as it's very close to the
vanilla version idc, i don't often use texture because i can
never tell what anything is

It would be optional but on by default.

However you seemed to ignore everything about the custom map
icons which was sort of the main point of an official texture
pack atm.

Could you like, elaborate about the map icon left, right, or
center more ??? I'm really confused.

The images, not the icons. The image to the left is default
texture pack, the other two are proposals.
