Official Terrarian
now that texture pack support has been finialized, i wanted bring back one of my favorite texture packs from 1.2.
using the programs provided on the thread from TO, i was able to make a version compatible with 1.4.
all credit goes to @NanoPi for making the original pack and scripts. if you would like to see the original thread, you can find it here
(resize scripts have been added to the download section in the situation of dead links and/or failure to update the pack)
What is this pack?
this pack is made using three different image filters: hq2x, xbr and xbrz. you can read more about them here: Pixel-art scaling algorithms - Wikipedia
Process
each of the filters are used to upscale images in a more refined quality.
in this pack most of terraria's images are down-scaled to a 1:1 pixel ratio instead of it's default 2:1 using some imaging tools.
image filters are applied to them while resizing them x2, returning them to the 2:1 ratio again.
after the image filters are applied, some imaging tools are ran to clean up any messy images, bringing us to the end results.
here are some examples of with it looks like compared to the original:

(screenshots are from 1.2.4.1, i'll make more up-to-date screenshots at a later date)

xbr/xbrz
Disclaimers
Installing and uninstalling
Save the file to your My Documents>My Games>Terraria>Resource Packs. that easy. for better loading, unzip the pack.
you can read more about it here under "TEXTURE PACK SUPPORT".

Disclaimers
- i do not own this pack, it's merely a fan continuation. if requested by @NanoPi or any of the mods, it will be taken down.
- i have not extensively tested this pack, as it was made with scripts/batch files. i've only seen and fixed one tile, so there may or may not be graphical errors.
- if anyone wants to continue these packs in my absence, they are welcome to do so.(unless that would be against any rules of course)
- no pack icons currently
- wires on most if not all versions have pixels missing from the edges.
- when unloading the pack, some things fail to unload
- zips are very load intensive, it's best to extract it before use.
