Hi,
I was working on building a Matrix trilogy inspired adventure map, but my real life work is stalling the project, so instead of letting it sit, I wanted to share the texture pack and what I have started of the map.

The texture pack is 32 x 32 so you will have to use a modloader to run it.
I'm drawing over a copy of "Last Days" which was made by a few different artists, but the terrain.png is about 95% finished, and when its done, this pack will be *completely* different from Last Days, so please pardon the work-in-progress aspect of it, for now.

It was not really designed to be used as a "survival mode" texture pack, although I do include some textures near the bottom for eventually making a hydrid texture map that can be. If you do check it out, please take a look at what the finished map looks like.
An old map of Newtown in Widnes 1907. The red circle indicates my birthplace at No. 2 Suttons Lane in 1950.
An original map produced for the Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario, concerning hydro power lines, stations and transformers. However, the map also features railways, roads and land boundaries.
This map is of the North Section - the Frankford Rural Power District. The total area includes parts of Thurlow, Huntingdon, Sidney, Rawdon, Campbellford, Seymour, Brighton, and Percy Townships. Circa 1950.

The Maxwellton community is located south of Salmon River Lake and east of Meteghan in Digby County, Nova Scotia. When the Western Counties (later Dominion Atlantic) Railway was put through during 1880's and 1890's this was one of the settlements that sprang up around the station becoming a distribution point for coast settlements.
