[icy yacht]

[devout torrent]

i just think one of the legs is a bit weird

but its fine ig

[icy yacht]

napoleon had no reason to wear that shit btw

pura aura

[sage trench]

look at its legs

[devout torrent]

[inland pine]

Honse

I love it

[sage trench]

https://klipy.com/gifs/horse-run-5

[devout torrent]

ok i home

turning my laptop on

[sage trench]

cool

[icy yacht]

peak will be started

sadly i couldt

doing the icons is prob the most important thing in thw hole mod

couldt be done without me

[topaz tusk]

Totally

[devout torrent]

okay, so:

here is the body u did

here is how it should kinda look:

forget about the white outline

the black part is half transparent

@topaz tusk

like that u can add shadows

[topaz tusk]

Ohhhh I think I get you

One sec

[topaz tusk]

Like this?

[devout torrent]

yes kinda

[icy yacht]

Yeah

[topaz tusk]

Do I need to add that for the flat top of the body as well?

But slightly less transparent

[icy yacht]

The top?

[topaz tusk]

This

[devout torrent]

i just realized that they are a bit... black

[topaz tusk]

HELL YEAAH

[devout torrent]

but i guess we dgaf

[sage trench]

wow no abunga 💔

[topaz tusk]

Wait wdym

[icy yacht]

Maybe they went to the beach

[icy yacht]

Theyre more darker then normal tribes

[devout torrent]

not same skin color

[topaz tusk]

AH yeah

I can try adjust it

[sage trench]

why dont yall use the norma tribe head

and

put hat over it

[glass bluff]

also no ancients

[icy yacht]

Frenchies are pretty tan

In the south especially

[icy yacht]

I think we should use the napoleon hat

I mean i like this one but its too tall

[topaz tusk]

Only the Napoleon unit uses the hat tho

[icy yacht]

Hes the main one

[topaz tusk]

What do I need to do to improve this? @devout torrent

[devout torrent]

add also the trasparent part on other part of transparent stuff

like

like on the horntrader sprite

[icy yacht]

Fire sprite

[topaz tusk]

Oh so all the faces of the body need some transparency?

I think you did that part last time lol I don't remember doing it

Better?

[shrewd crescent]

Wait how tf do u get the stars

[devout torrent]

i didnt

okay if u want explanation

[shrewd crescent]

What

[shrewd crescent]

Yes

[icy yacht]

yes

[devout torrent]

sometimes, when u change mods, the custom tribes have the same numerical value in the code

aka with one set of mods militas has idx 1000

then i change it to another mod in which for example tribe also gets index 1000

[shrewd crescent]

Ye but how get in first place

[devout torrent]

and so if i get 3 stars on one of them it moves to this tribe too

BUT

thats only in polymod debug

[shrewd crescent]

Ye but I have no stars at all

[devout torrent]

without debug, every time u change ur set of mods, it removes ur custom progress

what

[shrewd crescent]

I have none

Wait it’s only in perfection

A

[icy yacht]

op

[topaz tusk]

This better? @devout torrent Sorry, I'll get the hang of it eventually

[devout torrent]

yes

[topaz tusk]

Yay

I will update the google drive with the improved sprites

Did you find out if I need the shadow beneath their feet?

[icy yacht]

nice

[icy yacht]

you do

i believe

[icy yacht]

do you think the game will do it itself?

looking at other mods ( it is a skin but still) it looks like you have to

[devout torrent]

not yet

[devout torrent]

there is no shadow right?

if so, not

[topaz tusk]

Yeah no

Cool

[icy yacht]

ah

@devout torrent hey so i got a qustion

if i want to help you

with adding units

how will i get your code?

[sage trench]

what

[icy yacht]

basically if we want to both work on the mod

do we just send it here

[icy yacht]

dumb question or?

[icy yacht]

nice

[sage trench]

oh

[icy yacht]

yeah klipi dont got allot of time so i prob will have to add some troops

and he does the polyscript

[sage trench]

its ez

[icy yacht]

yes but do i send it here

[devout torrent]

from github

[devout torrent]

yes

[icy yacht]

ig ill make a acc rn

[topaz tusk]

Awesome

Working on more sprites now

[icy yacht]

nice!

[topaz tusk]

For the rider, what do I do for the horse saddle which has the tribe colour?

Do I just leave it totally empty?

[icy yacht]

i believe nothing

[topaz tusk]

COol

[icy yacht]

i think it goes ontop of the animal

by itself

[devout torrent]

i dont know

can you send me the animal pls?

maybe u dont even need to redo the whole sprite

i can just place the animal

[icy yacht]

horse

[devout torrent]

and it will replace it everywhere

[topaz tusk]

Okay, all the sprites I already put in the shared folder have now been updated with the correct shading

Horse

[devout torrent]

cool!!

[icy yacht]

i think the back is too light compared

might be just me

[topaz tusk]

Kinda, I made it brighter so it wouldn't blend in with the head

I can change it if it's to distracting

[icy yacht]

oh nice

goood thinking

@devout torrent to clear this up

how exactly will we send files

in github

[devout torrent]

i will make the repo

where there gonna be mod files

u can copy it

[icy yacht]

alr

[devout torrent]

then u can simply change stuff

and send it to mke

me

and i will put it in repo

[icy yacht]

through dc or github

[devout torrent]

dc

for github u would need acc and other stuff

i mean if u want

[icy yacht]

alr twin thank btw

[devout torrent]

u can

[icy yacht]

i made a acc yeah

i think using dc is better

more simplier

[icy yacht]

fire

[topaz tusk]

Mind bender and mortar have been added

For the old guard and Napoleon units, should I keep the heads visible with the body? Cause I feel like those need to keep their specific hats regardless of tribe

[devout torrent]

what?

you can just make them whole sprite

[topaz tusk]

Yeah

[devout torrent]

no need to separate them

[topaz tusk]

Cool

[devout torrent]

also

can you pls improve lightning on napoleon

he is a bit dark overall

[topaz tusk]

Sure

[devout torrent]

like here

thank you goat

[topaz tusk]

I made the skin tone lighter on all of them as well

Napoleon and old guard added

That's all of them except knight but I might leave that for now

If they all work fine I'll start the outlines

[shrewd crescent]

Remember the horse needs a helm

[topaz tusk]

Shall we lock in tomato as fruit?

[shrewd crescent]

Tomato????

[topaz tusk]

Or garlic

I kinda prefer garlic

[shrewd crescent]

No baguette

[topaz tusk]

Baguette is weapon

[shrewd crescent]

But it’s also edible

Wait I’m a genius

Wheat

[topaz tusk]

Hardly something you forage though lol

[topaz tusk]

Hmmmm idk

[shrewd crescent]

It make baguettes

Witch explains the weapons

[sage trench]

grape

[shrewd crescent]

[sage trench]

for wine

[shrewd crescent]

Wheat

[topaz tusk]

Yeah I'd agree but Lirepacci already have them

[sage trench]

so?

[topaz tusk]

They could be red grapes instead ig maybe

[sage trench]

screw lirepacci

and i have a solution

when i made conquistor

the bull was so iconic

i made hoodrick's animal a deer instaed

[topaz tusk]

Lol

[sage trench]

so find a new fruit for lirepacci, perhaps olives or something, and have wine grapes be for this

[shrewd crescent]

[topaz tusk]

I'll make some mockups and then we can vote

[shrewd crescent]

✅

@sage trench quiqui leg?

[sage trench]

what

[icy yacht]

@topaz tusk how would the old guards work

[sage trench]

garde imperial?

[shrewd crescent]

Quiqui or queque

[sage trench]

queque

[sage trench]

quetzali fried quiqui

[shrewd crescent]

Que fried que

[icy yacht]

green grapes

liperaci has red grapes

[sage trench]

lirepacci has purple grapes

and

green grapes lowkey would suck

[topaz tusk]

Idk lol ask Klipi

[icy yacht]

same shit

[icy yacht]

hell even look

3 mfs in one sprite?

[topaz tusk]

Lmao ik

Worth a try

[icy yacht]

yeah

[icy yacht]

have you thought about the forest

i think it should be olive trees

[topaz tusk]

Guys this garlic is kinda fire tho

[devout torrent]

lol

[topaz tusk]

I think we should go for garlic

[icy yacht]

HELL YEAH

didt even think about it

garlic looks perfect

[topaz tusk]

Yay

Garlic it is

[icy yacht]

should be two garlics or mutliple tho

[topaz tusk]

Ya

[icy yacht]

@topaz tusk your doing houses right

[topaz tusk]

Maybe not

[topaz tusk]

YOOOO

Napoleon OP

[sage trench]

cocorico

[devout torrent]

btw so what do y’all think

abt the idea

of when napoleon promotes

he turns from “the general”

to

“the emperor”

[sage trench]

"the revolutionary?"

oh

[topaz tusk]

Yeah that sounds cool

What extra abilities would he gain?

[devout torrent]

welp i was thinking +5 hp and then units around him being buffed

[icy yacht]

his sprite should lowkey change

[topaz tusk]

Ya

[icy yacht]

fire

[devout torrent]

yes

[topaz tusk]

Yeah I can make an emperor sprite with a laurel wreath

[devout torrent]

[icy yacht]

yes

[icy yacht]

https://youtu.be/cgqdq2swzdg?si=vZVkxDQtdWmE0VkV or this which is the anthem of the first french empire

yeah

we do need to add wral for this

[topaz tusk]

Garlic has been added to folder

read the thread

pls

[shrewd crescent]

“Napoleon skin”

[devout torrent]

.

[devout torrent]

yeah duh it was initially planned to be a skin

Napoleon tribe

better?

[shrewd crescent]

I was there I don’t think it changed

[devout torrent]

@topaz tusk @icy yacht wdyt

[devout torrent]

#1508582979524493333 message

[topaz tusk]

Yeah looks good!!!

Is +2 attack for charisma too powerful?

[devout torrent]

we can test later

[drowsy current]

doesnt something similar to stubborn exist in PoLib

or is it literally the same thing

[devout torrent]

tbh idk

i dont use polib in any of my mods

[drowsy current]

I think it was called loyal

[covert frost]

What is stubborn

[devout torrent]

well apparently it is loyal

in polib

[covert frost]

Cringe 😬 lol

[devout torrent]

why would i add whole polib just for one ability, which can be done in 3 lines patch?

doing that would be much more cringe

[drowsy current]

I guess but

PoLib is two clicks

and u can use it for other stuff in the mod

[devout torrent]

like what=

i dont know polib

so :p

[drowsy current]

yo double dmg when attacking a city is crazy

wall = useless

[devout torrent]

yeah but 2 atk

it is a worse cata

[covert frost]

Ok i mean understandable

But i represent polib propaganda

[devout torrent]

Yeah well

[drowsy current]

ok 2 atk is a warrior

[devout torrent]

Ye

[drowsy current]

that lowk sucks a bit

[devout torrent]

Basically

They are weak defending

[drowsy current]

cos defense bonus warrior itd deal 4 dmg

[devout torrent]

Very

[drowsy current]

do 2.5 atk prob

[devout torrent]

but crazy strong in atk

[devout torrent]

hmmm i could

[devout torrent]

and early expansion

i mean

napoleon can capture cities without waiting a turn

[drowsy current]

that seems very op

like polib: scavenger

[devout torrent]

bro what is scavenger now

[drowsy current]

that can auto claim ruins the unit steps on

I think

[devout torrent]

ah

well

[drowsy current]

bro needs to familiarise himself with his own mod loader's best mod

[devout torrent]

nah not the best mod

[drowsy current]

ok bro

[devout torrent]

polybreaker is the best

so sad i wont give my classified mod to yall

nah but i mean polib is tuff

ofc

i dont hate polib and never will

but highkey map maker may be better

nah fym may

it is

[glass bluff]

LIES

DECEIT

[drowsy current]

im with wasd on this one

PoLib is better

[glass bluff]

tf is PoLib

[glass bluff]

btw familiarize yourself a bit more too

its called rummager

or more specifically

polib_rummager

yall be talking shit while not even knowing the name of the ability 🙄

[covert frost]

Highly secret is to know its original name (polib_ruindash)

[glass bluff]

thats still the name of the method right?

like the patch

[drowsy current]

rummager

got it

but ive been here for like 4 months

our granddaddy klipi on the other hand

[covert frost]

Yes

[covert frost]

What blows my mind is that polymodding is older than 2 years

I think it might be older than 4-5 idk actually

[devout torrent]

depends on how to count

i mean it somewhat existed since 2021

there was two modding servers actually

one which was doing stuff we only started doing in 2023

which then kinda died

and ours

where we started polymod

and then we ditched that server too

and then created this one

[covert frost]

Why the server change for y'all

Also were the others completely independent of y'all?

[glass bluff]

i think it wasnt polymod back then

but like

some other idk what

called polytales

or idk

the polymod github organization's name still appears as polytales in certain places which is weird

[covert frost]

Secrets only the ancient ones know

[glass bluff]

is this a #1468241481373323471 reference

[devout torrent]

same thing

polytales is dystopia

polytales is my version of dystopia

[glass bluff]

oh so its dystopia

ic

[devout torrent]

which was based of very old attempts of paranoia to make dystopia

not really

fork of old attemps of dystopia

basically

[glass bluff]

wowza

that is neat

back then yall were doing just like

basic good ol bepinex plugins?

or did polymod exist?

[devout torrent]

omfg

ofc

polytales is younger than polymod

by like a year

almost

i will explain everything later when i have time

[covert frost]

Imma ask the unaskable

What is polybreaker?

[topaz tusk]

Me

breaks your polys

[covert frost]

Damn secret weapon

[glass bluff]

isnt polybreaker like

the thing

that breaks poly

my god im so smart

[covert frost]

I hadn't thought of that...

[devout torrent]

ok i will do more later

ig

[topaz tusk]

Ayoooo!

Looks awesome dude

Are their heads a little big?

[devout torrent]

idk i can make em smaller

[topaz tusk]

Maybe just a tiny bit

No rush though ofc

[icy yacht]

Great

[devout torrent]

for the terrain, we use base imperius stuff?

or we make it looks diff too?

[topaz tusk]

Yeah idm that

[devout torrent]

and for other stuff aka trees and mountains

too?

i dont think i will have much time today though

[topaz tusk]

Yeah we can use those as placeholders for now

I don't have any more unique ideas for trees and mountains but Imperius stuff works just fine for now

Also I was thinking I maybe actually could make some city houses

I could do it in the chateau style

[devout torrent]

As you want

[topaz tusk]

I'll have a go

Is it 5 houses we need?

[devout torrent]

oki

uhh

yes 5

plus the capital

sign

[topaz tusk]

Yeah cool

[icy yacht]

Y3aj

[icy yacht]

could also do the parisean buildings

also we gotta have a monument as the notre dam

ill also start on the skin today

@topaz tusk sorry for constantly asking we agreed on both a skin and a tribe right

[icy yacht]

well done

this is amazing stuff

truly great ideas

[covert frost]

Notre Dame idea supporter here 🤚

[icy yacht]

dame*

[covert frost]

Yeah i fixed it

-# You didn't tho

[icy yacht]

yeah im lazy

[topaz tusk]

I think we just doing it as a tribe now?

[icy yacht]

well i can if you want

[topaz tusk]

It's up to you, but I'm gonna focus on the tribe for now

[icy yacht]

wdym focus

theyed have the same sprites

[icy yacht]

well anyway hows the mod going

[devout torrent]

i didnt touch it since 3 hours ago

i updated some stuff

[icy yacht]

nice

[icy yacht]

tell me when you me when you need me

👍

[topaz tusk]

I think I am cooking with the houses so far

Lots of inspiration in chateau-esque

[devout torrent]

tbh if you cooked the monuments

it would be good

[topaz tusk]

Yeah I agree

[devout torrent]

if you want to make custom forest or mountain or field or whatever feel free to make the sprites

so then i put em in

[icy yacht]

ill try yeah

@devout torrent @topaz tusk so im thinking this put in greyscale

[topaz tusk]

Yeah good idea

[icy yacht]

might be too simple tho

im scared of that

[icy yacht]

basically this

[topaz tusk]

Ya

Like a stone statue

[icy yacht]

yeah

[topaz tusk]

You could make it orange/green like a bronze statue instead maybe?

[icy yacht]

copper?

[icy yacht]

i could ill see

[topaz tusk]

Some wips

More details still needed obvs

[icy yacht]

niceee

[icy yacht]

heres my wip

[topaz tusk]

Which monument is that gonna be?

[drowsy current]

it looks like a blob

it should be the emperors tomb

[icy yacht]

no clue mate

[icy yacht]

@topaz tusk thoughts

[shrewd crescent]

good

[topaz tusk]

Oooh cool

Yeah I like the oxidised bronze colour

I almost have the 5 houses

A first draft of them anyway

[icy yacht]

so is that ay yes

[topaz tusk]

Yes

[icy yacht]

nice

[topaz tusk]

HOUSES

What do you think of them?

Ik they're not super detailed or anything but I think they're visibly French

[covert frost]

Look good

[topaz tusk]

I don't like the 2 without vines as much

Maybe they need something extra

A flag or banner perhaps

I'll tweak them after I've eaten

[covert frost]

Vine is cool idea i think but they're coming out of nowher ei think idk

[topaz tusk]

True lol

[glass bluff]

id keep them just to make the vines pop more

in an actual city

[topaz tusk]

Sure

[icy yacht]

this one is crazy good

[topaz tusk]

Thankyou!

[icy yacht]

i tried making a blue version but inah

yeah black is def better

[topaz tusk]

I do like that tbf

Reminds me of Naboo from star wars lol

[icy yacht]

@topaz tusk mate shouldt you add the icons i made?

to the google drive

i can understand if you didt like them

old gaurd

@devout torrent mate do we need these

or nah

[topaz tusk]

Ye I love them

I don't think you need the circle around them tho

Idk ask Klipi

[covert frost]

no need for the circle

actually it is better to not do a circle cause in vanilla circles indicate whether the unit moved or not

and stuff

[devout torrent]

yeah icons dont have cercles

[topaz tusk]

Improved

[icy yacht]

I thought they did

[icy yacht]

Reds too pink nfl

Ngl

[icy yacht]

So just the icon?

[topaz tusk]

Hmm, it's the same shade I used on the soldiers' hat

[icy yacht]

Well yeah but I think for the houses you should use a more crimson

[topaz tusk]

Sure

I'll make some more adjustments when I see how the cities look in-game

I'll add em to the google drive now

I hope they look good

[icy yacht]

Same

[icy yacht]

@topaz tusk @devout torrent like this?

[topaz tusk]

Yeah I think so

[icy yacht]

Idk whay to do with the crossed one

If you have any ideas

[topaz tusk]

Which unit is that for?

Also is something like this cool for emperor? Idk

Was kinda trying to replicate this painting

[icy yacht]

I think the ribbon should lowkey be transparent

Yk for tribe colour

You make make some spots with more opacity and less opacity so it looks better

[topaz tusk]

Yeah I get you

[shrewd crescent]

Edible

[icy yacht]

I came i saw i conquered

[shrewd crescent]

I came I saw I nuked

https://tenor.com/view/explosion-mushroom-cloud-atomic-bomb-bomb-boom-gif-4464831

[topaz tusk]

I think this guy likes nukes

[icy yacht]

Napoleon trine oui oui

Napoleon tribe oui oui

[glass bluff]

napoleon trine

[icy yacht]

Im crine

[icy yacht]

I got a idea for the icon

Just a eagle

[topaz tusk]

Nice

I can try make an eagle staff for him to carry too

[icy yacht]

sketch

its too round and non polytopia style tho

[topaz tusk]

Oh zayumnnn

[icy yacht]

?

[topaz tusk]

Looks cool

Im just rotted

[icy yacht]

Well yeah idk if we can use it

[icy yacht]

i should really download the actuall spirtes you gave

for the skin

WHY DONT THEY SPRITES WORK

right

i forgot _

perfect

[sage trench]

lock in

[icy yacht]

dawg its almost 1 am and its hurting my eyes

[icy yacht]

this isnt even related to the tribe

[sage trench]

so?

am i not allowed to speak here unless its to work on the tribe?

[icy yacht]

no i meant what im doing

this is the skin not the tribe

done

[sage trench]

ok

[icy yacht]

btw

could i get your opinion on a monument

[icy yacht]

this one

[sage trench]

its cool but the perspective is fucked

also its hard to see the details

add more contrast

[icy yacht]

contrast?

[sage trench]

contrast

yes

[icy yacht]

yes but what do you mean by that

exactly

[sage trench]

contrast = the difference between light and dark elements

in other words

make the lighter parts lighter

and the darker parts darker

[icy yacht]

i thought it was this yeah

[sage trench]

umm

ok so another thing

lighting in polytopia

comes from the right

[icy yacht]

ill remove the thingy dw

[sage trench]

why is napoleon's face as dark as his side

[icy yacht]

that was just me being silly

[sage trench]

The city names are hilarious.

[shrewd crescent]

[drowsy current]

[drowsy current]

you can almost see the cow's soul leaving its body

the glowing blue soul

[trim kayak]

Wait that's a cow?

Why a cow?

You could have a rooster.

Or even a frog.

[drowsy current]

aquarion ahh animal

its a toaddd

yumm

[covert frost]

Escargot

[trim kayak]

Oh, snail could be the fruit!

That would be hilarious.

[drowsy current]

[drowsy current]

peacock

[devout torrent]

[covert frost]

[drowsy current]

cleanest toad

^^

[topaz tusk]

Yes it is a horse

Fruit is garlic

[icy yacht]

Its a horse twin

One of them fancy ones

@topaz tusk yk we could have a rooster or smth

And the rider a horse

Or a frog

Ima go try to make more monuments

[icy yacht]

how tf do i do the dome

@shrewd crescent fym

[icy yacht]

@topaz tusk mate could you do this one

[topaz tusk]

Lol yeah sure

[icy yacht]

Btw its napoleon as an emperor at the top

[icy yacht]

Ouioui

Ig we are on break

[icy yacht]

A true French way

Smoke break

[topaz tusk]

How this? @icy yacht

[icy yacht]

This is great but I got a few things like adding slight details on the pillar like minimalist lines and using that napoleon is alr but the original is him dressed as ceaser in a emperor costume

Dont get me wrong tho this is awesome

[icy yacht]

Like these lines or smth

[topaz tusk]

Got it

[icy yacht]

I think just adding the lines is ok

[icy yacht]

Awesome

[devout torrent]

dirty i have just a very minor suggestion

[devout torrent]

it looks very good but i feel like it overlaps too much with lirepacci thing

[devout torrent]

can you make it looks like the one here?

maybe even give him the thing

in his hand or whatever

[topaz tusk]

Yeah sure

Sounds good

[devout torrent]

(although im not sure how we make the unit look itself)

like his base form is on the horse

so we make his improved one on the horse too?

[icy yacht]

The head?

Actually if you think about it

It fits it more

As napoleon was a ceaser fan

[topaz tusk]

I think on foot is fine

[icy yacht]

Its literally is the lirepacci thing

As napoleon is wearing roman emperor clothes

[icy yacht]

Or we could use this one

[devout torrent]

idk but it makes it less recognisable

[icy yacht]

@topaz tusk hey so uh

[devout torrent]

making it look like the one on painting makes in more recognisable to the painting

[icy yacht]

What do we do with this one

[devout torrent]

or idk its just me

[icy yacht]

Just not use it?

[icy yacht]

Which painting

[icy yacht]

@devout torrent thoughts

[sage trench]

[devout torrent]

#1508582979524493333 message

[icy yacht]

Ill try again today

[sage trench]

[icy yacht]

Thats the lirepacci head thingy tho

[sage trench]

as horce face

horse

[devout torrent]

It doesnt look the same

Here it goes fully around the head

Lirepacci one doesnt

[icy yacht]

Or i could ask dirty for this model here

[icy yacht]

@topaz tusk could I get your napoleon here

[icy yacht]

I see but could you give your thoughts on my monument

[devout torrent]

its good i think

[icy yacht]

Thanks ill imporve it later

[topaz tusk]

You want the actual 3d model?

[icy yacht]

No

Its fine I can trace it from thay image

You sent

[topaz tusk]

Aight

[covert frost]

dirtyfrog what software are you using for the sprites?

[topaz tusk]

Blender!

[covert frost]

oh lol

i will never learn that accursed program

I'll stick to inkscape it seems

[icy yacht]

I might try it

Seems easier for the houses

[topaz tusk]

Lmaoooo fair

[icy yacht]

Even that is a stretch

[icy yacht]

Yk you could do a infinite nitro thing by just winning polytopian contests

Theres 1 every month

[topaz tusk]

Lol

[icy yacht]

And idk give the steam key to give away

[topaz tusk]

I haven't submitted to one of those in forever

[icy yacht]

Whenever you need nitro ig

Or a steam key

Maybe i gotta lock in for one of those and get one

My last submission was a giant Conquest

It is kinda bad

[topaz tusk]

Well we should get a new contest in the next few days

[icy yacht]

I suck at prospective

[glass bluff]

use a grid

[icy yacht]

Haven't used one of those in a while

Gave up

[glass bluff]

well you see

then you wont have perspective

[icy yacht]

That is true

[icy yacht]

Guys?

[topaz tusk]

Oh yeah I forgor

I'll make it later

[icy yacht]

yeah

you got ime

time

why does it fortify

@topaz tusk

heres how they look

[topaz tusk]

AYO THAT ACTUALLY LOOKS P GOOD

I can make some adjustments still

The actual beige parts need some windows

[icy yacht]

if you want to yeah

[topaz tusk]

What do you think?

Maybe they need more colour

[icy yacht]

fire shit

[topaz tusk]

That one looks rlly good

[icy yacht]

maybe more details on the left side

[topaz tusk]

True

I can swap the vines over

[icy yacht]

need to make them smaller

[topaz tusk]

Fire

[drowsy current]

looks fat

but good

change the workshop texture to match the colour scheme

[trim kayak]

What's with the red and blue stripes on the side?

[icy yacht]

Pride month

[icy yacht]

Idk i assume its supposed to a be a flag hung

Ask @topaz tusk

[topaz tusk]

Yeah it was a flag but I can change it

It was hastily done

[icy yacht]

Lesbians

[drowsy current]

oui oui

[topaz tusk]

I don't think that's the lesbian flag

[icy yacht]

im joking

[trim kayak]

Well, I can guarantee that's not a french flag.

[icy yacht]

oh i meant bi

[trim kayak]

If you want something suitable for napoleon's time that's not straight up a french flag you could use this:

[topaz tusk]

Ooh

[trim kayak]

(Circle alone is fine too.)

It was a revolutionary symbol during french revolution so I think it's fitting.

[icy yacht]

yeah i was thinking this

but its unp polylike

[trim kayak]

I guess there's aren't very many circle in poly.

Juste make it somewhat hexagonal?

[icy yacht]

well im not the sprite guy

[topaz tusk]

I will have a second go at the houses at some point. I think a few changes are needed to make them feel more coherent as cities. I could also try add extra details like chimneys?

I may change the tint of the rooves to a more bluish-grey

[icy yacht]

yeah i think that could work

ima play a game with napoleon

[topaz tusk]

I'll do some more research and see if I can make them more Napoleonic in style as well

Atm they're just vaguely Chateau-esque

[drowsy current]

french revolution btw, this was after napoleon era

time to hit the books again bro

[trim kayak]

You do know Napoleon happened after the revolution, right?
Right?

[icy yacht]

pretty fun

[trim kayak]

It went like Monarchy -> Revolution -> Republic (with Napoleon in the military) -> Coup d'état -> Empire (with Napoleon as the emperor) -> Napoleon's defeat -> Monarchy.

[icy yacht]

exiled

[icy yacht]

mrb is french

cant really argue with a french man about his own history

the most fun part is def the muskets

[drowsy current]

fair enough

[icy yacht]

nothing is wild tho

you gotta be kidding me

[trim kayak]

French tribe not getting some cooking-related tech is wild.

[icy yacht]

well that was easy

[icy yacht]

its not the italian tribe

[icy yacht]

what does france even have

[trim kayak]

Well, cheese, for starters. We literally have more than one new type of cheese per day on average.

[icy yacht]

and baggets

baguettes

[covert frost]

escargot

[icy yacht]

couldve said eclair or smth

not that distgusting

[trim kayak]

Yeah, lots of sorts of bread too.

[icy yacht]

btw i fucking hate eclairs

[covert frost]

also wine

like a good ton

[icy yacht]

tried it once and it was the worst thing i have ever eaten

[icy yacht]

well yeah but wine isnt a french thing

everyone has wine

[covert frost]

ok but french has lots of wine
everyone has pizza but italy has lots of pizza

[icy yacht]

italy made pizza

france didt make wine

[trim kayak]

And france has good wines.

Did you know the whole wine industry of south africa started from french protestants who fled france during the religion wars and took their vines with them?

[icy yacht]

btw mate you excited for the wc?

[covert frost]

it's good to have a water closet

[topaz tusk]

I could maybe add some cheese and wine to the market sprites

Maybe

As a Frenchman do you approve of garlic being the fruit

[trim kayak]

I think it's weird.
But then, I don't like garlick, and I happen to know a lot of people around me who like it, so maybe it's just me.
