[tardy rivet]

Welcome to Solar's Moons and Interiors! I currently only have one moon released.

Check it out here:
https://thunderstore.io/c/lethal-company/p/Solar27/Cession/

Hope you enjoy!

[still sand]

ayyy you made one

[wispy garden]

We really need a #mod-[WIP] channel

[sonic kindle]

link?

[white shard]

The tag does enough, though I'd say to not include tags that aren't in developed/in progress, but up to them

[still sand]

not out

@tardy rivet put wip in the title

[tardy rivet]

in very early development

[WIP] LunarsCatacombs/CatacombsInterior

[still sand]

nice

[marble lotus]

Good luck friend

[tardy rivet]

thanks!

[still sand]

this will be sick

yeah good luck to you man

keep us updated!

[tardy rivet]

this got active way faster then mod ideas

guess more people check this

[sonic kindle]

Bruh.

[still sand]

yeah im ngl i dont think nobody checks mod ideas

[tardy rivet]

?

[still sand]

i think he was saying that to the mod not being out

[tardy rivet]

oh ok

Im thinking enemy could be some sort of skeleton. Maybe a rodent or insect?

And i decided that the moon will be an abandoned town/city

[still sand]

paris

lol

[still sand]

sounds good

[tardy rivet]

its going to be something like paris or rome

since they both have catacombs

[austere crow]

perhaps provide a screenshot or two

[half current]

Been looking for a mod that has the energy of the movie "As Above So Below"

[tardy rivet]

there’s not enough quality content good enough to show yet

[tardy rivet]

haven’t heard of it, but i’ll research and try to use it as a reference!

[hardy wedge]

Any sneakpeaks? Intense stare

[midnight forge]

He hasn’t started making it yet

[tardy rivet]

i have an idea for a menu if you want that

either a picture of in game catacombs, the skeleton worm when it’s out, or a map of them

projects being set up currently

and i started making models

[still sand]

fire movie

[tardy rivet]

gah damn that movie looks sick

also 5 reactions is crazy

[hardy wedge]

We’ll get back to this for sure! For now im totally booked lmao
And Im going to take a bit of break on the weekends

Planning to make at least one with animated background and another one with static background

Hopefully i can do them tomorrow

[half current]

Be 50 when you release. Interiors are admirable.

[tardy rivet]

that would be great!

[fast zealot]

Would appreciate any screenshot as soon!

even the unity editor in general lol

[tardy rivet]

im just tryna set up the project right now

if someone can help/guide me with this it would be appreciated!

i do see we already have some modders in here

[tardy rivet]

i know what the entrance should look like

[tardy rivet]

either going to be a square room with a pillar of skulls in the middle or like a square with semicircle shapes in the walls

[hardy wedge]

Semicircle shapes!

[tardy rivet]

idk how to describe better

[hardy wedge]

You already bought me with it

[wraith hill]

This sounds rly interesting

Not fully sure if it’d fit, but maybe there could be skeletons of certain enemies as decorations

Like thumpers or eyeless dogs

[tardy rivet]

thats an amazing idea

[tardy rivet]

im prob going to make an entrance room model today so you could see what it looks like

[tardy rivet]

Should I do this solo or should I recruit a team?

[hardy wedge]

Whatever fits your boat. Most interior lacks soul to me tbh. Some are buggy with the scraps, some are just way too out of place with its design. You need to relatively stay in touch with LC to give it the same vibe. That doesnt mean it cant have unique part to it like the mental hospital having the valves open to greenish gas or having parkours in them instead a single jump like the facility has.

And btw hit me up if you need betatester Imma give you my honest opinion and idea what could be better.

[tardy rivet]

what interiors do you like?

[hardy wedge]

Mental hospital is one of my favorite tbh. I also need to check out all tbh, havent played on most recently since they were buggy.

Scraps not loading / enemies are in the wall / custom enemies are not loading etc

I’ll give you an overview later (this weekend probably) about them.

[wispy garden]

check out sleep's dungeon

its REALLY fun

[tardy rivet]

it’s pretty good

[tardy rivet]

most of the interiors are pretty glitchy but i’ll try my best to make a vanilla style but still great interior

[tardy rivet]

I have so much planned for you guys and I didnt even start the project :(

[tardy rivet]

Thank you all for the support since the start of this idea! You all requested very good things for this!

[deft iron]

Best of luck with this project, there are definitely some moons that this idea would go perfect with

[wispy garden]

id love to see a spoopy skeleton enemy lol

[tardy rivet]

making a skeleton bug/rodent i think

[wispy garden]

but can it casually approach a child?

[tardy rivet]

yes it can

very casually

but the twist is

it brutally kills the child in the next step

[tardy rivet]

im working all day for you guys!

right now making the entrance room

also give a thumbs up on this post please

[tardy rivet]

entrace is mostly done!

[midnight forge]

Send pics

[tardy rivet]

very early development

if any of you have any suggestions for it lmk

or i can make more of a mansion length entrance

something like

that

just with those curve pillars and doors on the sides

[hardy wedge]

Maybe arches come from the pillar?

I mean from the pillar to the corners

[tardy rivet]

?

idk what you mean

[tardy rivet]

ohhh

yeah i might do that

just clone an arch, cut in in half, and connect it to the pillar

should be pretty easy

[tardy rivet]

corners look a little messed up so im just going to put a send more square pillar there

ok! i revamped everything and added square corner pillars and added diagonal half pillars

[hardy wedge]

Lemme see 👀

[tardy rivet]

cant see it very well but theyre there

any other suggestions?

ok im going to start setting up the project bc i figured it out

i just made the length of the room longer bc im waiting for help on something

this is actually coming out so well imo

[hardy wedge]

do you intend on adding a crypt part to it too?

[tardy rivet]

those burial grounds under the ground?

i might if thats what youre talking about

once i get better at modeling im going to make skeletons for creatures and maybe biodiversity skeletons too

[tardy rivet]

another thing I need to do is textures

[tardy rivet]

?

[hardy wedge]

like a room with coffins

[tardy rivet]

oh yeah

[hardy wedge]

nice

[tardy rivet]

def will

[tardy rivet]

going to start on mansion size entrance now

[tardy rivet]

this is actually killing me

[sand hinge]

you should draw it out first

on paper

it helps

or have a simpler reference drawing

[tardy rivet]

i mean setting up the project

git bash isnt doing the right thing

nvm figured it out

[tardy rivet]

heres a screenshot for now

not textured yet

[tardy rivet]

what moons? I'll have to check them out!

something else I want to add is custom scrap

im thinking like 4 stone tablets and maybe bones

[deft iron]

Atlas Abyss would be a good one. Tolian also just released Spectralis which is like some ancient burial ground. I'm also about to release a moon this weekend which will be a graveyard.

[tardy rivet]

[WIP] CatacombsInterior

I cant wait to see your moon!

going to take a break from working on it for now, its getting me all stressed and overwhelmed

[deft iron]

Take your time, no need to rush out content

[hardy wedge]

we also want good content not just rushed content. i tried several interiors today and my opinion still stands - overcomplicated interiors are made without them properly functioning

also most of them loses the LC vibe

[sand hinge]

Which ones?

[hardy wedge]

school - monsters have a tough time spawning
scarlet - monsters have a tough time spawning, items have a tough time spawning

school also spawns turret inside walls/doors, turrets shoot through doors/walls

[tardy rivet]

alright i wont rush it

ill just do it at my own pace

but i also need suggestions

do you guys think from what you saw has the LC vibe?

https://github.com/Lunar2710/CatacombsInterior.git

thats going to be the github when its done

[sand hinge]

I have not had those issues, but school yea

[tardy rivet]

ive seen these issues before

also a lot of asset problems like z-fighting and glitchy lighting

[hardy wedge]

also havent seen turrets / landmines on scarlet

[tardy rivet]

yeah some interiors are just so excited and rushed to finish and post and they just make a bad quality mod

[hardy wedge]

I like most of them - i just have issue with the workflow i guess. Thats why I like the mental hospital very much. When I first tried it most of it was working - he added new stuff - bugged a bit but on the next patch he fixed those and thats how I’d imagine makin an interior 😅 not just throwing everything in - although they are great ideas but if theres multiple layers of bugginess it’ll take so long until patching them out

[tardy rivet]

tomorrow we getting back on that grind

might get generation done tm

but for now im hopping off

[sand hinge]

Yep I wanted to make an interior, but I realized I had little to none experience. That’s why I started off with moons, it will help me learn

[tardy rivet]

i have absolutely 0 experience

but since people were kind enough to make tutorials, i’m going to use them!

[tardy rivet]

guys we might have run into a problem

i might have to pay for dungen

[sand hinge]

You can use the ripped version

It will just be harder

[tardy rivet]

how do i get that?

[tardy rivet]

do you know where to get it?

[midnight forge]

Why

[tardy rivet]

.

[midnight forge]

Ik but why do you have to pay

[sand hinge]

If you are using noms noms patcher or evasias templates you already are using the ripped version

[tardy rivet]

bc i need it to make my interior

[tardy rivet]

im using nomnoms rn

[sand hinge]

Just follow majors tutorial

You don’t have any visual cues tho

It will be more challenging but you got this 🔥

[tardy rivet]

wdym visual cues

also what mods did you make?

it says i dont have dungen

[tardy rivet]

or do i have to run nomnoms first

[sand hinge]

What?

[marsh sage]

yeah you need to import nomnoms asset ripper into your project

if you need some help with getting it set up I've done it a few times so I can help

[sand hinge]

Watch starlancers audio knights video on creating custom moons, just watch the first part

Like the first 10 minutes of it

It will teach you

[tardy rivet]

im watching that rn, but he said if you want dungen you'll need to get it

so thats why im a little confused rn

[marsh sage]

nomnoms asset ripper grabs the dungen version that's already in Lethal

so you dont need to get the actual version at all

[tardy rivet]

so i just run the asset ripper now and ill have it?

[marsh sage]

yup

[sand hinge]

yes, but you wont have any visual cues

[marsh sage]

then i'd recommend watching the first video Major made in https://discord.com/channels/1168655651455639582/1206155878647078912

[sand hinge]

like icons and such

[marsh sage]

eh the visual cues are nice but not needed

i've coped fine so far lmao

[tardy rivet]

hmm

its saying i have the wrong path

but audio knights is the same and it worked fine for him

[marsh sage]

have you got it leading to your lethal company install?

[tardy rivet]

ive got it leading to the lethal company data folder

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Lethal Company\Lethal Company_Data

[sand hinge]

real quickly

verify the intregity of your game files

[tardy rivet]

so just verify game files and I should be good?

[sand hinge]

I spent 2 hours trying to figure out why my patcher wont work, cause my lethal folder was bugging

[sand hinge]

nah but u should just in case

double check your path

you installed the correction files and apps right?

[tardy rivet]

this path should be right, correct?

[sand hinge]

and you are using the right unity version?

[sand hinge]

hm that should be it

rewatch the tutrioul and make sure you followed all the steps

[tardy rivet]

ok

wait

maybe Net .80 isnt installed correctly

that has to be it

bc he said that it need net .80 to run the patcher

[sand hinge]

yes plz watch the full tutrioul

[tardy rivet]

i did but he skipped the part where he actually installed it and i thought it was already installed and running lol

how do i tell if its running correctly

as in net .80

[sand hinge]

it will say you have .net80 installed

[tardy rivet]

in unity?

btw catacombs are long hallways so if you have a thumper say your prayers

[sand hinge]

when you finish installing net80, it say say you succsefully installed net80

[tardy rivet]

ok

then restart unity?

this is so strange

my asset ripper just wont work

do i lead the path to lethalcompany_data or just lethal company

oh

i got it

i need to run it to just lethal company

wait i got it

i just needed to reselect lethalcompany_data

[tardy rivet]

so now I have dungen?

ok i do now

alright project is set up!

now i need to follow majors tut

what scene do I do it on?

as in the major tutorial

[marsh sage]

just a brand new scene

[tardy rivet]

should i just create one?

revamping a couple of the prefabs

[tardy rivet]

working on next entry room👀

[tardy rivet]

this looks so good

the first two pillars dont have arcs between bc thats where the entrance is going to be

the entrance to rl catacombs is just a black door so thats what Im going for in this mod

doors will look something like this without all the grafiti

[tardy rivet]

do you guys think this is a finished product or should i add more to it?

[midnight forge]

Add textures

[tardy rivet]

im just talking model wise rn

[sand hinge]

needs props, lighting

[tardy rivet]

what probs should i add?

[sand hinge]

well its a catacomb

so tombs

graves

statues

blood

dead bodies covered

[tardy rivet]

rubble

[sand hinge]

yep

here let me send you a unity package with a lot of good assets

[tardy rivet]

im prob going to make them as prefabs where i can use them a lot of times

[tardy rivet]

ok!

[sand hinge]

https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/3d/environments/fantasy/make-your-fantasy-game-lite-8312

[tardy rivet]

what mods did you make btw?

[sand hinge]

I made moons

https://discord.com/channels/1168655651455639582/1224426841037602901

[tardy rivet]

those are pretty cool!

[sand hinge]

Thx

[tardy rivet]

np

[sand hinge]

if you ever need someone to help you make rooms i would love to

[tardy rivet]

that would be appreciated!

[sand hinge]

once you get the main textures and props then i can help

[tardy rivet]

i'll prob use a lot of the assets from the package you sent and i have some bone assets already

all i need is a pile of rubble asset and i'll be good

[sand hinge]

yep

also creating dust particliesmand such can help

i can help u with that

[hardy wedge]

i'd love rotating lights inside too like how @sand hinge had them in his moons too

idk if they could be done inside and would fit the theme tho

[sand hinge]

Don’t ping me for that, ping Rosie that was there prefab I don’t want to take credit for it

[hardy wedge]

oh

didnt know that

[sand hinge]

https://discord.com/channels/1168655651455639582/1212942407306313788

They make some really good moons, inspired me to make my own

[tardy rivet]

like the sector-0 rotating lights?

[sand hinge]

yep!

I dont know how that could be in this intertior

[tardy rivet]

i dont think that should be in the interior

bc it prob wont fit

if im being honest no lights would fit in the interior but Im adding them so its not hell

bc long hallways = more thumper interactions

and I want thumpers, bugs, and mimics to be more common

and ghost girl

and spiders and snare fleas

anything that resembles a corpse/bug/ghost

[hardy wedge]

So coilhead bracken jester ||butler|| nutcracker will be uncommon?

Oh and slime

[sand hinge]

I feel like you should leave that on the moon side

@tardy rivet how far did u get into the tutrioul?

I was gonna make my own interior but if you finished part 1 and could send it to me that would be nice

[tardy rivet]

i didnt get far into the tutorial

but I also want this as a learning experience

[tardy rivet]

Dont worry I will

but the my moon when I make it the moon will have some enemies more common

[sand hinge]

how far?

[tardy rivet]

and it only feels right to have a big generation

[tardy rivet]

in audio knights 10 minutes in majors like 2

I just wanted to model some things first to get a feel for it

[sand hinge]

damn

[tardy rivet]

i was confused on if i should make a completely new scene for the interior

[sand hinge]

yep u def need too im think

[tardy rivet]

i’m making some progress with majors

since i got school i can’t work all day

but on the weekend i’ll try

[sand hinge]

same

I also started making an interior

Lethal Complex Center

[tardy rivet]

nice!

whats it going to be like?

[sand hinge]

pretty vanilla like

just some office like rooms

storage rooms

[tardy rivet]

well good luck on it!

[sand hinge]

ty

[tardy rivet]

now Im on to making prefabs for the interior

im probably going to try making some rubble and other things

also i have a question

should it look old and ruined, or more refined?

wait should I make it in blender or unity

[sand hinge]

def old

[sand hinge]

depends

[tardy rivet]

i might make some prefabs in blender then construct the actual rooms in unity

Im going to add a category of rooms called Cursed rooms, there a set of rooms that belong to the god who created these catacombs for storing the bodies of his followers.

The cursed rooms are going to be demented, and will be corrupt versions of existing tiles.

There will be a chance for the entrace to have jumps

chances are low, but never zero

[tardy rivet]

[WIP] Catacombs Interior

[tardy rivet]

Planning some rooms and assets I have to make!

[hardy wedge]

coffins 💀

https://tenor.com/view/dancing-coffin-coffin-dance-funeral-funny-farewell-gif-16737844

https://tenor.com/view/guild-wars2-halloween-gw2-dance-skeleton-gif-26942298

[tardy rivet]

ive had that planned out for a while

coffins will prob get its own cursed version too

[sand hinge]

how many rooms have u made so far?

[tardy rivet]

just 2

the two entry rooms

im still working on prefabs

but i have a couple planned out

[tardy rivet]

im gonna be able to start working on this mod again cus it’s the weekend

[tawny cedar]

sick

[sand hinge]

Same

Btw again lmk if u want some help creating some rooms, I would love to create some

[tardy rivet]

ok!

[tardy rivet]

i’m gonna try to grind models this weekend

have a couple of hours rn so yeah

[tardy rivet]

how yall like this?

[deft iron]

Solid rubble model

[sand hinge]

looks good did u make it?

[tardy rivet]

yup!

ive been learning how to model this week

[sand hinge]

nice! I finished up almost all of my rooms

[tardy rivet]

finished making all of them?

dang

that was fast

should I add a cross on the coffin or not bc it might offend some people (idk why)

[sand hinge]

personally I am for it

but I am not Christian, and idk how they would feel

[deft iron]

Yeah it should be moreso up to your own desires as a mod creator. Ultimately this is optional content and there is no explicit message from the design

[tardy rivet]

i just made two variants to add some variety

[tardy rivet]

what other prefabs should I make?

I have full and half arches, pillars, rubble, and 2 types of coffins

maybe i could make 2 prefabs based off this picture

a fountain thing and more square pillars

[fading void]

that would be sick

[tardy rivet]

thanks!

might turn it into a room

[fading void]

yes

im really interested in this interior so far

has potential for moons like Etern

[tardy rivet]

ive been playing so many moons i forgot which ones are which lol

[fading void]

etern is the sandy wesley moon

[tardy rivet]

oh shiii

i love that on

one

it really does have potential for it

[fading void]

im following almost every interior i swear lmao

[tardy rivet]

but im thinking about making my own moon thats more like an abandoned city

[tardy rivet]

lol same

[fading void]

ooo that would be sick

[tardy rivet]

im excited for basically all of them

[fading void]

i hae about 90 mod threads that i am following

[tardy rivet]

atlanticas the closest I can find thats like that tho

but its flooded

i want mine to be a desert abandoned city

[fading void]

yeah that would be awesome

[tardy rivet]

once I get more model ideas development will start going way quicker

[fading void]

im excited to see how it turns out!

[tardy rivet]

do you have any ideas for prefabs?

[fading void]

maybe a hallway with dead people in the walls or something idk

[tardy rivet]

broooooo

i got the best lore for this

let me write it up rq

[tardy rivet]

yeah the grand hallway (just a really big and long hallway) will be like that

[tardy rivet]

what monster should I make a statue on?

[deft iron]

My vote is Bracken. Bipedal, organic, mysterious, imposing.

In terms of prefabs/tiles, I'd recommend body storage holes in the walls, candles with candle stands, lanterns, skeletons/mummified corpses/body bags, urns, either small tables or flat stone slab tables, embalming tools, and possibly ritualistic props like a sacrificial dagger

[raven bridge]

I feel like at least having some easter egg prefabs of the jester skull inside the catacomb would be fun. Whether a full statue of someone with the jester skull, not sure, but the deformed skull is very distinct and would fit into a tomb-style interior for obvious reason

[sand hinge]

your going to need a lot of floor detailing in the catacombs tho

like a lot

def go for quality over quantity

[fading void]

the body storage holes were exactly what I was thinking of too

[tardy rivet]

yeah im going to need to make some trash all over the floor

maybe i should make stairs like that too?

[midnight forge]

Yes

[tardy rivet]

List of what ive got so far:

3 arch variants (Long, Half, and Tall)
2 pillar variants (square and cylinder)
1 Bowl Pillar (Half pillar with bowl on it)
1 rubble pile
2 coffin variants (Cross, No cross)

[sand hinge]

nice about how many rooms are u going for the first realease?

[tardy rivet]

i have no idea actually

[tardy rivet]

yessss bro

[tardy rivet]

what yall think ab this lantern model?

this interior really got me learning how to model better

day 1

vs

[sand hinge]

looks good

[tardy rivet]

day 7 and 8

[tardy rivet]

broken variant cus sick asked

[hardy wedge]

Letsgo

Now bricks!

[tardy rivet]

ai bet

i make singular brick and brick pile

[hardy wedge]

Nice

[sand hinge]

this is very impressive bro

[tardy rivet]

thanks!

[tardy rivet]

took a day off yesterday, gonna work on urns and bricks soon

[feral mortar]

Very excited for this interior we could really use more medieval type interiors with how many modded moons there are with that style. It will be nice to have more options then the castle dungeon interior

[fading void]

yeah im not a big fan of scoopy's interiors uinfortunately so it's gonna be nice to have more interiors like this

[tardy rivet]

scoopys interiors are alright

[fading void]

idk i don't have them in my pack for my friends cause i dont think any moons really fit those aesthetics

[summer oak]

Vow works well with the sewer interior imo

[fading void]

gg brick mode

[sand hinge]

huh

[summer oak]

what?

[tardy rivet]

the sewer interior works good with vow moon

[summer oak]

Wait I just realized I said it backward

Doesn't it still work tho or am I dumb?

[tardy rivet]

it still works

List of what ive got so far:

3 arch variants (Long, Half, and Tall)
2 pillar variants (square and cylinder)
1 Bowl Pillar (Half pillar with bowl on it)
1 rubble pile and 1 brick pile
2 coffin variants (Cross, No cross)
3 urns

[summer oak]

So no rooms done so far?

[tardy rivet]

well the prefabs are the first step

im putting the rooms together with the models im making

[summer oak]

Yeah ik, was just asking

Keep up the good work

[tardy rivet]

ive already made some examples of what i want the bare rooms to look like

[tardy rivet]

finished 2 candles and a candle stick!

[sand hinge]

bet

are you planning to make everything handmade?

[tardy rivet]

yup!

or at least most of it

[sand hinge]

damn nice

even textures?

[tardy rivet]

i havent gotten that far lol

[sand hinge]

if you also make textures that will take a long long time

unless you already are very familiar with textures

but even then

[tardy rivet]

yeah i might just take some off of a free website

[sand hinge]

yea I would reccomend you do, but hand crafting does feel a lot better

[tardy rivet]

List of what ive got so far:

3 arch variants (Long, Half, and Tall)
2 pillar variants (square and cylinder)
1 Bowl Pillar (Half pillar with bowl on it)
1 rubble pile and 1 brick pile
2 coffin variants (Cross, No cross)
3 urns
2 candles and 1 candle stick

[sand hinge]

Nice

[tardy rivet]

hey guys, sorry i haven’t been active, i’ve been sick for the past couple of days and i’m taking a break from this project, hopefully you guys understand

[sand hinge]

lmk if you ever need some help 🔥

[tardy rivet]

felt a lot better today guys, i will be returning tomorrow

a couple of things I might work on

Revised versions of the old sample rooms with new prefabs
Making new v50 compatible project since batby literally just came out with LLL v50 (tysm batby)
New prefabs (Nearing the end of this stage)
Textures if finished???

[glossy void]

Whens the releas of this and whre can i find it?

[sand hinge]

still wip

they prob dont have a certain eta of now since the interior is still very early in devolopment

[tardy rivet]

tomorrow.

jk

[tardy rivet]

idk how i’m gonna do textures

[sand hinge]

If ur also gonna make textures for everything this ain’t coming out untill a very long time lol

[tardy rivet]

alrighttttt

i wont

i dont even know how to do textures💀

[feral mortar]

Good thing you mainly just need bricks 🧱

[tardy rivet]

brick

[sand hinge]

Yea no offense if you were to do it now with no experience and release the mod with those textures, it probably wouldn’t look great. You can still learn textures, and I’m sure you will be great at them eventually once you do it more and more. But unless you want the mod to like release on 2025, it’s prob better to find textures online

[tardy rivet]

2025 is a longgggggggggg stretch

late 2024 is a better guess

[hardy wedge]

summer is coming alsso

[sand hinge]

if you were to make your own textures, and trying to make decent quality, with no prior experience, so its not that long of a strech

[tardy rivet]

oh i thought you meant with using online textures

[tardy rivet]

oh my god i forgot again

adhd will do that to ya

i was busy with stuff today, i'll try to get some progress tomorrow

here ill take a poll

List of what ive got so far:

3 arch variants (Long, Half, and Tall)
2 pillar variants (square and cylinder)
1 Bowl Pillar (Half pillar with bowl on it)
1 rubble pile and 1 brick pile
2 coffin variants (Cross, No cross)
3 urns
2 candles and 1 candle stick

[sand hinge]

you def will need some more, will you just be using these prefabs, or also take some from online. Will you be usimg what ssecpie sent to you, the graveyard pack. I highly reccomend that

[tardy rivet]

idk man i think those dont really fit what im going for

[sand hinge]

oh alr

you can always change the textures of the models

[tardy rivet]

i might we'll see

ill def use that one dust thing bc that would be good

checking out this one, tell me what you guys think

https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/3d/environments/fantasy/altar-ruins-free-109065

and this

https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/3d/environments/dungeons/low-poly-dungeons-lite-177937#content

just sending all ones i might try just so i can keep them in a good place

[deft iron]

I would also recommend looking into model sites that have some free models like sketchfab, turbosquid, free3d, or cgtrader

[tardy rivet]

alright! if i like the idea of the model but i don’t really like the whole model itself i’ll make it myself and then put the material on it

[hardy wedge]

Maybe a witch entity could be added 🤔

[tardy rivet]

i’m more thinking of a giant skeleton snake or rat

a witch would be sick tho for outside

[fading void]

rat please

[wispy garden]

Nah more interiors already has a rat and is adding a king rat apparently

[hardy wedge]

Im no witch 🙄

[tardy rivet]

a giant skeleton rat tho

[deft iron]

Would be dope. You'd have to figure out your own spawning system or have them as prefabs in the dungeon because normally moons control spawns - but the rats in moreinteriors did get that working.

[sand hinge]

with new level tags in LLL it shouldnt be that hard

[tardy rivet]

yeah imma need to learn how to use those

[sand hinge]

btw how is progress?

[tardy rivet]

its really hard

it slowed down a lot bc of textures

[sand hinge]

true

[sand hinge]

are u making your own textures?

[tardy rivet]

idek yet

[tardy rivet]

is anyone able to help with textures?

[midnight forge]

Make a post in #1210315682613436446

[deft iron]

There are also a number of resources online if you look up "free textures", but whether or not they match your UVs will be up to you

[sand hinge]

yep what sccenpie

said

Making textures is very hard

and its going to be hard to find someone to make textures for you, for free

[sour bluff]

Texturing is the bane of my career

[tardy rivet]

mine as well

[tardy rivet]

i needa start working on this againnnn

[midnight forge]

You do

[tardy rivet]

so inactive on this it hurts

[tardy rivet]

Taking a little break on this bc im stressing so hard bc of it

[fading void]

it's alright, take the time you need!

loving the progress I've seen so far though!

[tardy rivet]

thanks!

[fading void]

oh, and if you ever need ideas for designs and stuff, look up "Odessa Catacombs"

I think it would fit the vibe of lethal company PERFECTLY

[tardy rivet]

oooooo

maybe

[empty lark]

oo

I love death and skulls and tombs

Are you coding it as well or just doing assets and rooms?

[tardy rivet]

assets and rooms

[hardy wedge]

What kind of coding are you thinking of? 🤔

[empty lark]

All of the coding

[empty lark]

Nice, maybe I can figure out dungen

There are guides and such

[tardy rivet]

i’ve basically figured it out already

the problem is textures

i have enough assets to start making some tiles, but i need to texture everything

[empty lark]

ok so you do plan on coding it in then?

[tardy rivet]

no

[hardy wedge]

I mean you could put together the stuff and then test stuff with no textures to see how everything works

Textures can come in later, maybe make a #1210315682613436446 thread for it 🤔

[fading void]

this is a fire idea

[feral mortar]

You can always get free textures or buy em. You wouldn't be the first LC modder to do that lol

[fading void]

honestly yeah, if you really want to use your own textures, you should at least get some free textures for now so that you can work on the tiles and stuff, just to get it in a playable state. obviously don't overwork yourself or stress yourself out working on it, just using free textures for now would let you work at your own pace without feeling as pressured to make the textures before you can keep working on it.

idk if that makes any sense but hopefully it does

[sand hinge]

There are plently of great free textures

[fading void]

true

[empty lark]

Putting it together in unity is coding Id say

[dire socket]

is there an eta for this bad boy

[hardy wedge]

nope ._.

[tardy rivet]

no, but i would want it to come out late this year

[sand hinge]

damn

lethal company gonna be dead at that point 💀

[fading void]

fr though like, late this year? kidna long but y'know what? we ball

[sand hinge]

I dont want to pressure you, but it seems as if u want the mod to be a super big scale

interiors def take long to make

but if u work semi consistnely it should take like 4 months max

[fading void]

yeah

[hardy wedge]

Hes also workin on a different project too 😅

[fading void]

ah ok

[quaint veldt]

Dead or not, games have received some really cool mods even after their golden age 🙏🔥

[long moon]

mods tend to keep games alive

[quaint veldt]

or revitalize them

[sand hinge]

true

problem is that a lot of people still will lose their interest in the game at that time

[tardy rivet]

i NEED to work on this

but games dying, so idk

[midnight forge]

No

Fortnite added lethal company

[hardy wedge]

I mean ULCC dc is filled everytime i check

I know its not as big as before but it still holds a ton of players

[fading void]

idk doesn't seem dead to me

me and my friends still play a lot

[fading void]

exactly

[sand hinge]

id prefer like 50k players

[wanton quarry]

So sad how fast games these days die out

[wanton quarry]

I like to think that it still has a decent playerbase but they all just play at different times

[midnight forge]

it did not die out, some games get a boost in player count when its the meta and then after the boost, it gets averaged out to what it normally is

[wanton quarry]

True true

[wanton quarry]

If you look at mods like LLL (which have updated recently) downloads are still within 80 to 100k downloads. So not dead, just less people playing at one time

[dire socket]

just because the game is dead for the main portion of the playerbase doesnt mean its dead for the modding community

[flint socket]

I'm super excited for this! My play group is in dire need of new interiors and sick ones like this will absolutely get us playing the game more. Please keep up the work! :))

[quaint veldt]

Game’s not dead imo, most just have it in the back of their minds. If say there was a big update like V50 again and videos showcasing unique and exciting mods that garner a lot of attention, I could see there being a resurgence. People love exploring new things, the unknown, and just having WTF moments in Lethal Company. (Personally I’m a big fan of mods that add new monsters and interiors)

[quaint veldt]

If you want to work on it for self fulfillment or to share your work with others that’s great. Players come, go, and revisit the game with friends to play new updates or new mods. I don’t think you should see the current game’s popularity as a means to motivation but it’s ultimately up to you. 🙏

[empty lark]

Mods are the lifeline

You would be surprised how many LC players never touched mods before because either they

1. Didn't looked into it
2. Never thought there was mods
3. Assume none fit in with the game / only seen joke mods

The players that play it now are 99% the players that use mods all the time

[tardy rivet]

lowk wanna make a swamp moon

HOLY SHIT

i gotta lock in

keep getting thrown off track by myself

😭

i have to stop

[hardy wedge]

how are you doing so far?

[tardy rivet]

no progress since the texture problem

[hardy wedge]

work on stuff and dont worry about the textures

you can get some textures online or someone could surely help you out

[empty lark]

What texture problem?

[sand hinge]

my guy there are so many free textures online why u stressing 😭

[sand hinge]

tbh i might work on a catacombs interior too, the compeition will help us improve

[feral mortar]

Or you can work together to make one superior mod?

[sand hinge]

Tbh I’d prefer to work alone, especially if I have no idea who the person is

[feral mortar]

That's fair, let the battle begin!!

[sand hinge]

Also let’s say one of ours is better than the other, it will motivate us to improve ours

Also we can probably discusss to go for a different style

Ex mine is more open and his is more closed and linear

[hardy wedge]

once im done with my moon imma join the race just with a dojo interior not a catacombs one

[tardy rivet]

only problem i have with that is the confusion of players

[tardy rivet]

idkkk

[hardy wedge]

Theres a castle interior already but castle interior in wip too

Also two poolrooms interior lol

[tardy rivet]

and two sewers

[hardy wedge]

I think its fine to have several of the same concept with different approach

[echo trench]

It is really about the interiors personality and feel, because both Liminal Pool and Poolrooms feel incredible different for having the same concept

[hardy wedge]

Yup

[midnight forge]

It’s too many

I have 10 already

[tardy rivet]

i took your privilege away from using it

[midnight forge]

Wat

[tardy rivet]

jk just remove a couple of the other ones

[midnight forge]

Nah

There all fire

But it’s hard to customize

Even with a chart

[midnight forge]

I have 13 actually

[tardy rivet]

no wonder people crash

thats a lot of interiors

[midnight forge]

That’s not the reason

It only loads one at a time

Not 13

Plus I just turned down the resolution back to normal so fps is up 40

[tardy rivet]

still, when you load up the game it also loads up all of the other interiors

[hardy wedge]

@midnight forge theres more to come too :3

[tardy rivet]

yes

[midnight forge]

[tardy rivet]

the interior renaissance

[midnight forge]

If only there was someone that could manage those for me *loudly winks

[tardy rivet]

loudly winks

*meows cutely

[hardy wedge]

Honestly cant wait to publish my moon and start working on my interior

[midnight forge]

Ok that’s too far

I should get ChatGPT to do it tbh

[tardy rivet]

fry moon coming soon

i might come back to lc for it

[midnight forge]

[tardy rivet]

bc of that big thing that idk if anyone knows about outside of the discord in the middle of the moon

[midnight forge]

Huh

Wdym

[tardy rivet]

sickboy moon

[midnight forge]

He already made it

?

[tardy rivet]

oh shi it released?

[hardy wedge]

It only needs a couple of stuff before releasing

[midnight forge]

No I thought you said he did

[hardy wedge]

Not yet ._.

[tardy rivet]

i said coming soon

[midnight forge]

Oh

[tardy rivet]

is the thing working?

ol sammy

[hardy wedge]

Probably be releasing very soon i still need to work on a couple of stuff and im getting help from Xu and Mox for special stuff :3

[tardy rivet]

if ya know what i mean *winks aggressively

[midnight forge]

Someone should make a volcano planet where it explodes and right before the lava gets to the ship it hits midnight and it leaves

Or a tsunami one

Or a earth quake

Or a solar flare

[hardy wedge]

Yeah those would be nice!

[midnight forge]

Or a ozone hole

Or a magical unicorn

Or a Godzilla attack

Or a King Kong climbing a building attack

[tardy rivet]

after release of catacombs imma make a swamp one with a swamp monster that gets very aggressive at midnight

[hardy wedge]

Tsunami is one of my biggest fear

[midnight forge]

Or a skibidi toliet

[hardy wedge]

And im also fascinated by it

[midnight forge]

There should be a chance that during the day it can occur and the ship will leave even if it’s not midnight

[tardy rivet]

kinda like an 100% facility meltdown

honestly would make a natural disaster mod if i knew how to do that kinda stuff

[midnight forge]

there is already a meteor strike mod

[tardy rivet]

but thats one single natural disaster

i would want a 25% chance for one to happen 10% for a double disaster and 5% for triple

like imagine minding your own business and all of a sudden theres a volcano, a tornado, and meteors at the same time

[hardy wedge]

That looks like an mrov + Xu collab if ive ever seen one

Im not tagging them cuz i’ve been in Xu’s mind talkin shit all day long

[fading void]

yippeeee!

[fading void]

need

[fading void]

literally my exact thoughts

[sand hinge]

I’m actually gonna make a content warning inspired interior

[tardy rivet]

oooooo

that sounds nice actually!

[tardy rivet]

got back into lc

gonna start working on this

[quaint veldt]

fire

[fading void]

let's go!

hype

[tardy rivet]

i forgot the answer, but do yall want a skeleton worm or a skeleton rat for this mod?

[wispy garden]

Id say worm

[tardy rivet]

i might make it a skeleton snake bc that fits better and theres more reference photos to that

[hardy wedge]

Snake would be neat

[sand hinge]

worm

[tardy rivet]

ok

i started making it, just messing with proportions

[midnight forge]

You should make a moon instead of a interior

It would be easier

[tardy rivet]

hell no

im making a moon in the future though

[tardy rivet]

imma make two moons]

one catacomb one, and one thats a swamp

with a custom swamp monster

[sand hinge]

What was with the aggressive hell no lol

And actually that’s a good idea

It helps you learn unity better

Making an interior is a ambitious task, first see if you can make a moon

And considering you want to add custom enemies and such without that much modding knowledge, the catacombs interior sounds super ambitious. It’s better to start with smaller projects, get familiar with unity, ect. Then start the catacombs interior. With how big you want your interior to be with monsters and such, chances are the at your going to get a burn out

[tardy rivet]

aw man

i’ll make a new post then with my ideas for moons i’ll make

[sand hinge]

I mean you could start with a interior

but maybe try 1 on a smaller scale, considering you got burnt out pretty early onto the project

[raven sorrel]

I say if you're doing an interior you could try getting assets from a free bundle

I think the burnout might've come from you doing everything from scratch

also ye do a moon first

[raven sorrel]

you can just rename this to be like, "[WIP] (moon name) + Catacombs Interior"

no need to make a new one

[tardy rivet]

[WIP] Lunar's Moons + Interiors

[quaint veldt]

Niceu

[tardy rivet]

i’m going through starlancers moon tutorial right now

[midnight forge]

What happened to catacombs

[tardy rivet]

imma work on the moons first

[midnight forge]

K

[tardy rivet]

Krypt is a forest moon, with a rock path leading to the main entrance, surrounded by ruins of buildings dating back to the age of the roman empire. Many believe that it was built by aliens who enjoyed the Romans architecture, and decided to steal it for themselves.

Bog is a swamp moon with the main entrance carved in a giant tree in the middle of the map. For some reason, the company decided to colonize this moon due to its secluded area in the galaxy.

[tardy rivet]

all i have to do is the terrain and im done

[midnight forge]

Pictures

[tardy rivet]

i havent started terrain yet, its just a main entrance, a fire exit, dropship, and the ship

on a flat piece of land

[midnight forge]

Oh

[tardy rivet]

yall know that 2-person scrap mod thats being worked on?

once that comes out I might make a gravestone and then a tomb

the tomb would be worth a lot more

[midnight forge]

no

[tardy rivet]

get out of here

[midnight forge]

walk

[wispy garden]

dam what he do 😭

[tardy rivet]

i hate him

[wispy garden]

I cant tell if you are being ironic(its a running joke in the project scp server that we hate xu lol)

or not

[tardy rivet]

its not

[midnight forge]

I dont appreciate the hate.

could I get a moderator in here?

[tardy rivet]

we dont care

[raven sorrel]

it's a running joke in the xu server that they hate me so that's good to hear

LMAO

[tardy rivet]

moon will be released in the next couple of weeks!

[tardy rivet]

and then

Catacombs release

MUAHHAHAHAHAHA

[midnight forge]

[tardy rivet]

[WIP] Lunar's Moons/Interiors

[tardy rivet]

i can’t enter my pc so for now this is canceled

[hardy wedge]

WHAT???

[tardy rivet]

of course right after i say this im able to

after 2 hours of trying to figure it out

[tardy rivet]

my pc wouldn’t allow me to boot it up

[hardy wedge]

Oof

[hardy wedge]

So you can work on it again?

[tardy rivet]

yes

[tardy rivet]

gonna make some progress today

we are so close to release

[tardy rivet]

we bouta finish!!!!

literally all I have to do is finishing touches

such as making terrain more swamp-like, little details like small plants, and spawn points

[harsh sequoia]

[tardy rivet]

sorry to tell you all, but I won't be working on this for a couple of days due to personal things.

[harsh sequoia]

🫡

[tardy rivet]

also, theres more of a following here then in the collab post so ill just post it here https://discord.com/channels/1168655651455639582/1258555828923924590

but i lied about not working on this. i probably will to keep my mind off things

[tardy rivet]

im back from vacation, so ill start working on this again soon

[harsh sequoia]

mk

[tardy rivet]

use experimentation's trees or make something like these

[raven sorrel]

exp trees for now, do those later

[tardy rivet]

ok sounds good

[tardy rivet]

sorry for being so inactive for a while, i've been distracted alot

its 90% of the way there though

[slow raptor]

as Nick Eh 30 says...

''Ayyymazing!''

[tardy rivet]

yes

[slow raptor]

you could ask wesley for some trees

im sure hes willing to share some models

[tardy rivet]

maybe

[wispy garden]

really hope you finish it

it was looking cool

[tardy rivet]

thank you!

if i do get around to it

it will probably have bad texture quality when published but i’ll update them gradually

[sand hinge]

Im not sure why yoou dont wanna just get free textures from online, those are really good

[sand hinge]

there was hardly any progress from what I remember, just a few models

[wispy garden]

ah, I guess my mind was filling in the blanks based on the few screenshots

it has been a while since I saw them

[sand hinge]

yea, once im done with the water plant interior, im going to work on the catacombs, going to be a combination of catacombs, my old company mines, and zeekers mineshaft

you

[sweet lagoon]

i think you can honestly

like you can get one of the mods i believe to do it

someone got banned from Starlancer's mod thread bc they were constantly annoying them with their requests on github

just don't quote me on this rn lemme find what i'm talking about

[hardy wedge]

you need a clear reason imo

[sweet lagoon]

i mean, semi-constantly pinging a mod creator to annoy and discourage them by effectively saying they obviously won't continue working on their stuff despite the amount of times they say they eventually will, or are

is a pretty good reason tbh

[hardy wedge]

someone is doing that??

[sweet lagoon]

yes

them

[hardy wedge]

wtf

[sweet lagoon]

and it's not even old just scroll up a bit it's right there

[gray vale]

Send em to the shadowrealm

I think they're buddies (or they hate eachother idk)

[tardy rivet]

Im motivated to get working on this

i like how my fans start speeding up as soon as I try to start unity

any improvements I should work on?

(pink missing material stuff is water btw)

lmk if there is any improvements I should work on

experimentation trees are placeholders for more swamplike trees I have to model

hey guys how do I add an image to the forum?
