Divine realms texture pack

Today's texture pack reminds me of an 8-bit video game. The reason so is that each block is one small texture repeated 4 times similar to the original Pokemon games as an example. But right off the bat there was a problem, if any block has snow on it it will show as the default texture and not as the divine realms texture which wasn't that big of a problem but it is still annoying also the enemies were default textured to but friendly mobs were re-textured and I don't know if it was just me but the goat looks like something out of tron. overall the texture pack isn't the most dazzling of changes but it does have a nice look to it that is welcome compared to the default textures and in its defense it's only 30% finished. pictures and link below.

THX flyable helicopter

Disclaimer: I am not responsible for anything that may go wrong while installing this modification

Today's mod is a very fun one, the THX helicopter is a modification and retexture of the boat in minecraft. It is crafted by making a boat but adding a block above it, the controls are space to go up x to go down w forward s backward a sideways (left) and d sideways (right) right click: fire small missiles left click fire big missile (click it again to detonate the missile in air) this mod is very interesting and new as far as I know there were no helicopter mods in minecraft until now. It is a great way to get around if you don't want to cheat or play in creative and since it is only made out of wood planks they are easy to obtain. And on top of being great for single player this mod could be used to make an online dogfight server using this mod and other aerial vehicle mods. The helicopter does have a health system so it can be destroyed and causes an explosion and turns back into an item that you can pick up. I highly recommend this mod because it is fun and has no item ID problems with other mods.

Wayukian texture pack

Hello everyone today's texture pack is one that makes the mobs (animals, monsters and villagers) and tools and weapons look downright stunning however unfortunately the terrain lacks the same amazing textures that mobs and items have. The mobs are by far the best every creature looks more realistic and those that don't exist (creepers zombies etc) look really cool and imaginative in example the creeper is now made out of wood and has glowing green eyes and the zombies have multiple textures from different shirts pants and even swim suits. The items look very mystical and fantasy styled as most minecraft texture packs seem to be anyway, The swords look elaborate and curvy and what not. Even though these are good the terrain was just to simple and looked like the default texture pack just touched up a little so if the creator were to make a re release of this pack with better looking terrain this would be one of my favorite texture packs (not to say that it already isn't) Link and Pictures below.
