Introduction: Create Your Own Minecraft Textures

About: I play a lot of minecraft and like to work with LED's and some circuitry, but most of all I love to cook and BBQ.

Sometimes the default skin can be boring and its pretty easy to create your own.

What you need:

Winrar or some extracting program
Gimp
Minecraft (duh)


For your convenence I have included a default texture pack for you to edit and my homemade splinter cell texture pack.

Step 1: Finding the Files

Click start and then run.
Type in %appdata%
click Minecraft
Click Bin
And extract Minecraft.jar

Step 2: Editing Your Textures

the list of files:

Achievement (don't touch)
Armor (cloth, iron, chain, gold, diamond)
Art (painting)
Com (don't touch)
Environment (clouds Rain snow)
Font (don't Touch)
Gui (inventory items)
Item ( arrows, boat, cart, door, sign)
Lang (don't touch)
META-INF (don't Touch)
Misc ( nothing really of value)
Mob( your Avatar, animals, Monsters)

And a bunch of "Class" files(don't edit)

Step 3: Gimp Time
