Colorblindness issue with Soartex

[Pb2Au]

Hey all,

I just started using the Soartex Fanver Legacy texture pack with Tekkit and really love the look of it. I'm having one problem though: due to my red-green colorblindness, I can't easily tell the difference between iron and copper. I'm sure they look totally different to most people but to me they are just way too close, especially in low light. Does anyone know if there is an easy way to adjust iron so it has more of a silver appearance, to make it totally distinct from the copper? I've also seen that there is a site where I can customize packs, but since that is directed at vanilla MC, which doesn't have copper, I'm not sure it'd work.

Thanks!

You could either just edit the .jpg file in the texture pack.zip

Or rely on the tooltips

tooltips don't help when mining.

But yes, you'll probably have to modify it by hand. Get GIMP, photoshop or a similar program and it's easy enough to do. There's quite a few guides around, it'll take less than 20 minutes after you have the program, even if you're completely new at it.

I use paint.NET due to it being very simple, but also powerful enough at the same time ( getpaint.net is the site )

I tried doing it myself without direction. The first time I screwed up everything somehow (using Fireworks), the second time nothing happened at all(using Photoshop). Stringburka: I will go looking for the guides you mentioned. Thanks for the help!

If it's just the iron block, if you upload the png to imgur I can fix it for you otherwise :)

Just now saw this. If you're still interested, I can make the change for you.
