John Smith Legacy for Vanilla Minecraft

Credits

Acknowledgments

An early summer evening of July 2012, I was searching YouTube for something to watch, I started watching JimPlaysGames and pacbilly play a deceptively simple looking game called Minecraft, after a few weeks of entertaining videos I bought the game myself, then started watching way to many lets plays of the game, one video series I watched was Monkeyfarm's YouTube tutorials, because of this I got hooked on the distinct look of the John Smith texture pack.

About a year pasted and read that JohnSmith (the original authur of the pack) had decided to no longer update the pack, the pack was just too good to just let die so the Minecraft forum community pick up the project and the pack was renamed John Smith Legacy, I joined the project right at the beginning but slowly over the next few years all the other members went onto the sickly sweet modded game and the millions of textures needed for that, I decided to specialise in the Vanilla game and eventually took over the hosting and control of that release.

Lots of people have helped with this project over the years, submitting new textures, bug reports, questions and general encouragement, thanks go to everyone and may I hope this pack continues.

I know some people like this sort of thing so here's the current specifications for my main workstation and the John Smith Legacy Server.

Hardware and Software

The first PC I bought was an AST 486 DX2 with 4MB of RAM, 120MB HD and a 14inch VGA Monitor back in 1995, I paid £1200 for that.

Every system I had since then was built by myself, this is much easier over the last ten years or so with Windows configuration and hardware compatibility being so much better.

Specification for my custom built system that was originally assembled on 2nd December 2011, I've updated this over the years with a new Ultrawide monitor, GTX 1080 Graphics card, SSD's and backup drives, the Ultrawide monitor and GTX 1080 Graphics card have both been sold and the system has now been reused in the John Smith Legacy Server.

Things were started to get a little slow when develping the pack so on 3rd September 2021 I decided to make a new workstation with all the details listed below.
