I have been having trouble with my john smith texture pack but all the others worked. So I re-installed each of my mods one by one to see which one was breaking it (it worked without mods). When I installed forge it showed the problem. This is the problem:
What is happening is the the tool bar area uses translucent colored pixels. With forge, it breaks the translucent and makes it a solid color. I have to believe that forge stops texture packs from using translucent colors in the textures. Is it possible to fix this
