whats your prefered texture packs

hey ive not compared them much, but noticed some wired quirks taking a quick before and after of NMCs texture pack vs POCO BUENO's texture pack, vs the unmoded game.

looks a lot like the default game is hard to beat on things like rock and roof textures, but NMCs draws the truck a lot better, and generally seems to render the color pallet nicer (although the Imaginator mod might also get the same difference) and from that view, POCO BUENOs v5 doesnt seem any improvement on either but theres obviously gonna be more difference up close to things. still my innital impression leans toward NMCs if any

 

heres another using NMCs + Detailed Normals v1.7

Detailed Normals does a few things

replace/change part of the road texture (actually makes it worse)

replace/change the dirt texture (now looks like red sand, subjectively seems more natural)

replace/change the rock texture (a lot more shadows and contrast, best one sofar)
