we only update old textures if someone deems them to be subpar and creates a replacement for it, then it goes through 2 voting stages before it goes into the pack. nostalgia shouldn't prevent better textures from getting in, especially considering we rarely get any comments about how new textures over time cause users to be disjointed and disconnected from the pack

#

since this isn't a traditional texture pack, where a single person creates a "wholly new vision", and upscaling naturally comes with various interpretations between people, changes will inevitably be made

#

ultimately, better looking textures trumps keeping a status quo

unborn jacinth
#

By old textures, do you mean programmer art textures (pre-1.14 textures)?

mystic escarp
#

What we strive for the most in Faithful is stylistic consistency

#

Old faithful textures usually don’t match with newer ones as well because of the slight artstyle mistmatch

mystic escarp
#

I don't really get what the issue is here

final lintel
#

you aren’t making any sense

from what i gather you’re looking for a pack with the programmer art texture, we have Classic Faithful Prograammer Art for that

the reason we are upscaljng the jappa textures is because they are the current textures in the game and if we stick with the old textures we wouldn’t be faithful to the game

#

if i misunderstood can you try to like say it without a whole ass philosophy book

#

if you’re talking about replacing g faithful textures then it’s because we want to make it so that all the textures are stylistically similar, compliant with the guidelines and don’t look like molten ass shit

#

we prioritize the pack actually looking good than “nostalgia”

final lintel
#

ah i see what you mean now, sorry we’re all just teenagers here lol

this is the reason the voting system is in place, any members of the community can vote on a given texture and if the majority of people don’t like the texture then it doesn’t get in the pack

#

we can’t please everyone but we want to please the majority

#

i’m sorry i’m just in a bad mood today lol

[Question] Updating "old" textures - edit: (cognitive bias and innovator's dilemma)

mystic escarp
#

still not entirely sure what you mean but we don’t really treat “iconic” textures differently from others

#

If someone makes a better texture and it passes voting it gets added

#

He's just mad we're making fun of his condescending and pompous way he talks and thinks

He wants to be treated highly when he uses words like hooligans unironically

queen lantern
# lethal quartz it didn't so restate your point

"You are an indie game developer and have gained an active player base, you made a few changes to the core mechanics of the game, and the players' response was "You ruined my experience!"
You changed a universal item's texture and the players responded with "The old one was better."
You added new features and the players still complained. You did all of the above and was met with silence, and they continued playing but the player base fluctuated over the years then plummeted because the game had lost its identity due to the many drastic changes that were made and the players lost interest as opposed to the view that they would lose interest because it stayed the same and nothing changed, which also is valid."

This is irrelevant to the reason you were pinged for but there you go.

lethal quartz
#

but like, I dunno that cuz I haven't been following this thread

final lintel
#

when you talk to us talk to us like monkes

lyric acorn
#

Dang das allot of words

#

so

he prolly coulda avoided this if he just said

lyric acorn
#

We got an advanced democracy

I wanted to convey the message of my discussion as clearly and as detailed as possible while also staying relevant to the server's main topic and perhaps encourage staff to speak from their experiences.

lethal quartz
#

just use the CF packs if you don't like the new style 🤷

#

it's literally there, it takes a bit of reading to find where that is

lyric acorn
#

If he had an actual grasp on communication instead of this facade of Intelligence he would've gotten much farther

queen lantern
lyric acorn
#

He doesn't know how to communicate

lethal quartz
#

then what is the point

lyric acorn
#

He thinks lots words make more point

#

It doesn't

lethal quartz
#

you aren't making sense at all

final lintel
#

part of studying english and being a good writer is being able to get your message across consicely and toning it correctly for your target audience

queen lantern
#

Also, not why I pinged you. I trust these rules that are in place are enforced?
