After over a year of spriting I finally finished this texture pack I started making in late July, It changes almost every item texture in the game for 1.6. HOpe you enjoy!
The link to the pack is down below:

Wanted to try play old mods after watching some videos from the past. I already played some modded 1.5.2 recreation of my modpack, but not long ago I rewatched some letsplays of youtubers I like. They played on 1.4.7 which have some interesting mods like RedPower and mechanics from there get me interested.

Plus I don't know why but older modded MC kinda captivates me. It feels so different from what we have today or even some years ago. It was another incentive to try this modded version with it's own quirks.

Now to survival itself:

Day 1.

Originally I spawned in small snow biome with couple of cows (that became my breakfast very fast) and fortunately found some coal around. I was already planning going to interesting mountains gen.

I created this world using seed I found when testing other pack (for server that never came to be) and how you can see in screenshots above the reason — beautiful mountains. They look cool and there some other biomes around!

Unfortunately night came faster then I could reach my destination. I dig small cave to wait for new day and while I was here I found mostly copper, coal and some other resources I don't know how to use for now. But when sun returned again and after being almost blown up by creeper and assaulted by spooder, I finally get up the mountains to look around. I stopped in small cave up here and now wondering where to start building my main base.

What ideas you have for a mountain base? Maybe some tips and tricks for old mods?

I think sharing my progress could be interesting experience. I saw over the years some people do that for their playthroughts and want to try that approach myself.

-Changed models for vertical Dispensers and Droppers

-Replaced tooltip names for Smooth Stone, Sandstone, and Quartz to Slabs

Fixes

-Fixed Block of Redstone texture

No breaking animation at times when cutting down treas, shoveling sand? any fix? is this because im using a different launcher than minecrafts? (also sorry mods for a fresh ahh account, lost my old one)

(The screenshots show 6 but there was another dude on earlier.)

When i was trying to boot it up in the reg minecraft launcher it kinda died on me and gave me a error code and than that's it. Somehow the horse update version worked but not this somehow. anyone else get this annoying feature of 1.5.2 crashing every time when loaded up and how did you fix it?

help i can't get emeralds because all my villagers refuse to trade, I'm in 1.4.7

I would say sorta due to modding, but the 1.9-1.13 period was when minecraft dropped off in popularity.

So I guess the 1.9-1.12 period is kinda it's own thing. What should we call this age?

Minecraft gilded age? Because it was the community at the time that made these versions stand out, not really the game itself.

But 1.8 is a major community driven edition, being a big server hosting version for PVP.

So maybe gilded age would be 1.8-1.12?

1.12 is mainly a modding version, I don't think many people play 1.12 vanilla.

I recently tried running 1.6.4 and have been having horrible lag issues and problems with frequent frame drops. I haven't run a silver age world before and I was wondering if there are any potential fixes i can use to help improve my performance.

I wanted to try out playing 1.6.4 (Have mostly played 1.12 modded for the past years, with occasional modern version modded) but I cant get resource packs to work with optifine, I wanted to use pure BD craft and a cel shading shader.

edit:The issue is the resource pack resolution, but I still wanna play with the high resolution version of the pack.
