Note: This is for 1.7, and is missing many improvements from the main pack. If you're using 1.8+, I HIGHLY recommend you the main version instead, it will offer a much greater experience thanks to custom models.
Why "Legacy"?
This version of my pack is specifically lower stable versions or wide-adoption (especially modded/server type places) previous versions that many servers/mods may still be using. Currently that is 1.7. If you're using a version lower than 1.7, you can use this pack and you will get more textures than the main version (which has many textures no longer located in the default folders)
If you're using 1.8 this will work. However, you're missing out on all the fancy models I made! But if you need higher performance in 1.8 this might help (but again, this is not as nice looking!).

What is Vivid Torrential Changes?
It's a self-inspired Minecraft resource pack with plenty of new ideas to add in some lore, or just to change the feel of the game. It follows crafting recipes and technical ideas.
The pack is optimised so files that don't matter aren't included, and the files that are there take up less space, so your download is quicker.
Highly complete, the pack not only features regular textures, but also modifies/redos the more "technical" ones, sounds, language, shaders, and even utilizes MCpatcher features to look better. As more features are added into vanilla and MCpatcher, I will modify the pack to utilize them. Eventually, I'll make a "light" version of the pack that only includes "necessary" elements, and not "convenient" ones.
The pack has been improving along with my skill for a while, but the pack isn't very popular, and I make the pack mainly for myself as I don't even know how many people feel about it. Lately, I haven't changed much vanilla stuff, as I don't know what to do. Feedback would be very appreciated, whether it is what/why you like/don't like something.
There is also more info on VTC's PMC page. It's not all here because it takes up much space, this site doesn't use of all BBCode tags (including spoilers which I use to conserve space), and PMC doesn't have a raw BBCode option in submissions and doesn't copy over properly.
