Installing textures easily!
Is it possible to change the texture of water and lava at all? I would like lava to be slightly more translucent so that I can build in it.
Thanks,
Dhel
Water and lava are hardcoded into the game, and cannot be changed at this time
Well.... they COULD be changed. only if you right clicked the minecraft.jar. place it on your desktop and open with winrar or winzip.... there's the png file fer it.
No. The textures seen in terrain.png don't do anything. They're hardcoded into the game.
I don't know if this helps at all but you can increase the size of the terrain.png file to 512x512 or something higher than 128x128 (I'm making a custom texture pack and tested a few things out). By increasing the size of the png, the custom texture for water shows up though does not move. Essentially this just reaffirms that the moving water is hard-coded into the game and set to only function at as a 16x16 textured block.

As far as I know it is currently impossible to change texture files of water and lava. I might be wrong though.
