I've retextured all the clouds in higher resolution, vastly improving the overall look of the gameworld.
High clouds resolution has been increased by 15x (minimal - no loss of performance)
Regular clouds resolution has been doubled from 512 x 1024 (minimal loss of performance)
These textures were tested on a moderately high-end machine, with no real performance issues on max-settings, I would not recommend using this texture pack on a machine that struggles with performance.

Regular cloud textures were not made by me, they came from here:
