Textures
|
||||
--------
|
||||
The Overviewer uses actual textures to render your world. However, I don't
|
||||
include textures in the package. You will need to do one of two things before
|
||||
you can use the Overviewer:
|
||||
|
||||
* Make sure the Minecraft client is installed. The Overviewer will find the
|
||||
installed minecraft.jar and extract the textures from it.
|
||||
|
||||
* Install a texture file yourself. This file is called "terrain.png" and is
|
||||
normally found in your minecraft.jar file (not "Minecraft.jar", the launcher,
|
||||
but rather the file that's downloaded by the launcher and installed into a
|
||||
hidden directory). You can also get this file from any of the third party
|
||||
texture packs out there.
