[lunar snow]

finally someone figured that out

[low loom]

Lol its noticable

[odd egret]

they are just from different angles

[low loom]

Don't you realize that in the first place?

[odd egret]

yes I did

[low loom]

I'd always choose what was none of the choices

[odd egret]

damn that does not help that much

[low loom]

You got it

[thorny arrow]

The Linden

[lunar snow]

cool

[odd egret]

wow

[lunar snow]

you use animations?

[odd egret]

the contrast makes it look even better

emphasizes shadows

[low loom]

Hmm

[thorny arrow]

It will have that in the future

[lunar snow]

wait

ah hell no

[low loom]

Empress me

[lunar snow]

that plugin will use a lot of space if you dont use animation

[low loom]

And may not be approved

[lunar snow]

yes

[low loom]

:yes:

👍

[thorny arrow]

Now i'm just testing about how it work
Then later i'll add animation

[low loom]

:yes:

[thorny arrow]

The Police station :))

[lunar snow]

soo anyway, how do i make a truck randomly spawns with different trailers

[lunar snow]

great

[low loom]

Lua

Or make preinstalled versions

[lunar snow]

will smth like this work?

[lunar snow]

what's that

[low loom]

No

[lunar snow]

oh

[low loom]

A new car draft but with diff tail

[lunar snow]

damn

[lunar snow]

how about this

[low loom]

Cry about this first

Nah im lazy this time

[lunar snow]

lol

[low loom]

Just use the traditional

[lunar snow]

actually i think the preinstalled version is easier

[lunar snow]

ye i will use this

thanks

woah what's these red-marking things, can i change all of them at the same time?

[low loom]

I think, but i think that's a consur highlighting same string

[lunar snow]

hmmm

[lunar snow]

@midnight obsidian is it possible to do that

ah i can

[lunar snow]

Ctrl + Shift + L

[static pollen]

Ctrl + alt gr + D +3455 + F26

[lunar snow]

i see

[thorny arrow]

Today coding and test:
Police station
Linden residential complex
Estella Plaza
.......

[dreamy hearth]

you can make it dirty to fit with the look and feel of a container

add some specks of dirt on it maybe

u could also add some rust on it

not sure how you'll do it but I think you can manage

[lunar snow]

wow what's this

Progress

[dreamy hearth]

where is this?

[lunar snow]

You make them? cool

[lunar snow]

You'll see soon

[dreamy hearth]

okidoki

[lunar snow]

I see

[lunar snow]

More progress

[frigid tusk]

It's the McDonald's playground

[lunar snow]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/531988392699887616.webp?size=48

[dim thorn]

Brutal

[orchid scroll]

Hooly

[lunar snow]

I will finish the roof and apply the texture soon

[dreamy hearth]

I would recommend focusing the dirt and rust on the bottom instead

no offense it looks like a block of honey from minecraft lol

aight

just minimal dirt

[dreamy hearth]

otherwise it'll end up like what I said earlier

I bet the green one will look like a slime

[crimson basin]

Red one like redstone

[dreamy hearth]

but fr tho I'll be looking forward to the plugin no matter how it'll look like

I see

[lunar snow]

jesus

using paint.net to draw is way easier that using pixly

thanks

[dreamy hearth]

Hmmm ik I'm getting far too ahead of myself but should I make this building in the future?

oops I meant the whole complex

the two red ones are alr there however

[rich birch]

You can do that if you want 🥰

[dreamy hearth]

aight I'll try to recreate the complex as a way to procrastinate when I don't feel like doing the road pack

[rich birch]

Right!
No pressure

[rain gate]

what is the code for influence education?

Ok thanks

[rich birch]

full code of educational buildings

[rain gate]

Why is this?

[rich birch]

There's no ","

[rain gate]

oh yes i forgot😅

[rain gate]

Aspect?

[rich birch]

it is so that your school can accommodate students so that your residents have "TT" and "TTT" levels

[rain gate]

oh sorry I guess it's influence

[rich birch]

Hospitals, schools, garbage treatment and cemeteries require both codes

[rain gate]

why is it lost?

[rich birch]

Please check again...

[rain gate]

Is this true?

aapect🗿

[rich birch]

typo is a "serious problem" in coding 🗿

[rain gate]

Typo moment🗿

is it right now?, but I've tried it and the result is the same as before

[rich birch]

Yuh

[lunar snow]

nice

[static pollen]

Cool

[strange cloud]

What's this guy problem?

[sinful meadow]

Wats dat

[strange cloud]

Disapproval text translation²: we don't do alts here.

Even though he was a new creator.

[tidal glen]

And what's that plugin?

[dim thorn]

Canal

Mybe

And a apartment

[lunar snow]

will take me some more time to finish the roof

[orchid scroll]

What's that supposed to mean?

Like an alt account?

[strange cloud]

I guess so

[rich birch]

So beautiful

[red igloo]

Wow

Is it a she'd?

Shed

[static pollen]

Oh nice plugins

Who made them pls ?

I would like to get them

[lunar snow]

epico

depends on what are you trying to make

[wanton willow]

my brain hurts

[lunar snow]

great job

[wanton willow]

making modulable castle is harder than I thought

[lunar snow]

i see

[rain gate]

You're having a burnout or a creator's block?

[barren jay]

Damn that's amazing

[lunar snow]

the template is done

[frigid tusk]

HQ of McDonald's playgrounds?

[lunar snow]

maybe

[frigid tusk]

No way
Nobody did a Mcdo playground

[static pollen]

Modular plus great job

[thorny arrow]

[feral marsh]

with adobe photoshop

[strong mica]

I'm just curious how do you transfer a plugin I made to theotown?

[crimson basin]

Go to your files manager, press move file, move it to the plugin folder inside the theotown folder

Ptag files

[agile forum]

TheoTown files are located under such directories:

▪︎ Windows: C:\Users(insert username)\TheoTown
▪︎ Linux: /home/$USER/TheoTown
▪︎ MacOS: /user/TheoTown
▪︎ Android: /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/info.flowersoft.theotown.theotown/files
By default you should be in /storage/emulated/0/
Reinstalling the game for Android will delete all files, unless you decide to keep the files when prompted by uninstaller.

Alternatively, you can access the files through in-built TheoTown file manager, accessible through the in-game menu.

You can find your plugin, music, region and city files there as well as logs for debugging purposes.

[crimson basin]

that should help

[strong mica]

I'm sorry if I'm annoying but do you have to draw on top of this when drawing?

[odd egret]

yeah u should

it helps keep everything symmetrical

u can errase it later tho

[strong mica]

The problem is when I try to put it in the app I'm drawing on it just shows it zoomed in do you have a better picture? Or solution or better app?

[stoic palm]

Well the picture itself is very small

On a 48x48 pixel image

[strong mica]

Where do I find a bigger one?

[stoic palm]

It needs to be the size

To fit in the game

[strong mica]

This was way harder than I expected, I give up

[odd egret]

u can try other apps

like pixly

if ur on mobile

[rare spire]

I'm in a new phase of plug-ins, where I dedicate more time to making a pack with a maximum of 10 skyscrapers in ancient styles (I don't like modern architecture) to the Portuguese colonial baroque style, carrying ornate remains of churches and palaces (such as Ouro Preto and Imperial Square in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil). The idea came from the way the great population centers of the United States built their cities in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, bringing European architecture through skyscrapers, as it was in Chicago, New York, Saint Louis, Detroit, etc. Here's more or less what it would be:

Not finished, I will make a lot of updates.

[lunar snow]

Cool

[rare spire]

Thanks! 🙂

[crimson laurel]

I want that pack as soon as it is finished!

[rare spire]

You will can. 🙂

[crimson laurel]

:D

I would also like to have some more Art Decos. Can't have enough of old buildings for my Saint Lupuz

[rare spire]

Alright.

[oblique tundra]

Doing my own plugin showcase

[junior bramble]

Who know's how to remove water under building?

[orchid sorrel]

"draw ground": bool

true, in your case

[junior bramble]

Thank you

[rare spire]

New added building in corner.

[junior bramble]

Perfect!!!

[orchid sorrel]

shadows when

[rare spire]

I will add.

[junior bramble]

Sorry, its not works.?

[rare spire]

more later

[orchid sorrel]

show your json

[rare spire]

thanks

[junior bramble]

Here?

[orchid sorrel]

anywhere

[midnight obsidian]

you probably wrote "draw ground": bool and not "draw ground": true

bool means "boolean", which is true or false

[junior bramble]

Ohhh, so sorry, thanks, i'l try

[orchid sorrel]

yes, that's exactly what I wanted to see

it might be helpful to study a little bit of terminology when creating plugins

it's always nice to know what objects, arrays or integers are

[junior bramble]

Yes, thank you so much, it works

[midnight obsidian]

ok &&

[orchid sorrel]

wtf is $$????

[midnight obsidian]

shut up || i will cut off your toes

if(shutup == false)
cout << "your toes have been cut off";

[orchid sorrel]

os.exit()

[midnight obsidian]

c++ in theotown plugins when

pls

@livid agate c++ in theotown when

[junior bramble]

How to fix can't confirm building id? Sorry, me again

In animation dev

[midnight obsidian]

make sure you typed it in correctly

[orchid sorrel]

remove all spaces before and after the id

also make sure the draft is actually loaded

[junior bramble]

Yes, im see

Thanks

[livid agate]

no

[midnight obsidian]

😭

[livid agate]

Try creating a discord bot in C++

Return when you've done it

[midnight obsidian]

when the only thing i know is cin and cout and if statements and nested if statements

no

oh i can also do comments :)

[livid agate]

that's std::cin and std::cout to you

[midnight obsidian]

#include <iostream>

[junior bramble]

Now ok?

[midnight obsidian]

yep

you really need to imporve the graphics though

[junior bramble]

Its bad?

[midnight obsidian]

it lacks a lot of the detail that makes theotown buildings look fitting to the artstyle

you should make the right side darker

[static pollen]

I can advise you to copy the textures of the game to improve it, (though do not copy textures from plugins without the authorization of the owner), such as using a window, but you can have fun and if you think it better, created your own textures

[midnight obsidian]

you can get a lot of advice from the forums

[junior bramble]

Ya, i see tutorial, and set right side darker, but not enough

[midnight obsidian]

ah

yeah, it should be way darker

[chilly mango]

you dont need to steal the textures themselves perse

but make sure to look at the colors they use

[midnight obsidian]

for example, look at this building i made

[chilly mango]

flex

[midnight obsidian]

the right side is wayyy darker than the left one

[midnight obsidian]

if c++ in theotown gets implemented i'm releasing it 😈

[chilly mango]

yea yea

[orchid sorrel]

this might be a good color guide too

and more flex

[static pollen]

I know it's your style, but I prefer black windows, and lighter colors, like in the game

[midnight obsidian]

imo roofs look better with these pixels below the roof

[frigid tusk]

Anyone can tell me how to arrange a json to put 2 night frames for 2 frames in a rotation aware please?

[midnight obsidian]

@orchid sorrel

[orchid sorrel]

it's a draft

it will look like this

[midnight obsidian]

ah good

[midnight obsidian]

i use the same window color as kulche typically uses

or well

[orchid sorrel]

although the row of pixels isn't strictly necessary

[midnight obsidian]

as kulche recommended

[orchid sorrel]

your colors look brighter

[midnight obsidian]

but it just looks good

[midnight obsidian]

hm?

[orchid sorrel]

for the windows

[midnight obsidian]

2D3F4F??

[orchid sorrel]

I'm using something like 30383D

[midnight obsidian]

lmao

i'm still using the color from this tutorial

[chilly mango]

yea can i get some of that 30383D

[orchid sorrel]

lol

[chilly mango]

statements dreamt up by the utterly deranged

[midnight obsidian]

i'm used to the color at this point but it could be darker

[orchid sorrel]

it's not like I use the same colors for everything

well, except ground colors

[midnight obsidian]

@orchid sorrel window color review

[livid agate]

best I can do is colour:green;

[midnight obsidian]

ooh i like the look of 22303D

[livid agate]

or p =PidroidEmbed(); p.colour

[chilly mango]

either rgb or text

[midnight obsidian]

int windowColor;

[chilly mango]

miss me with that hex

or other formats

[midnight obsidian]

wait no

eh whatever

i guess you can assign a number to a color

[livid agate]

so octals?

[midnight obsidian]

darker windows look way nicer

[static pollen]

True

[midnight obsidian]

okay but this is so much better

[rare spire]

I already know the shadows and some parts looks horrible, because was not finished yet, but the final result will be very beautiful. Portuguese baroque skyscrapers.

I made all them today.

i will add shadow

and light

it's my first time i start to make skyscrapers like this one, so it's a bit dificult at start

[junior bramble]

Thanks

[junior bramble]

It? It with recomendation color

Or better it?

[midnight obsidian]

pretty good, but could be even darker to be fair

[junior bramble]

More darker?

[midnight obsidian]

yes

[junior bramble]

Ok

[midnight obsidian]

for example, look at the light level differences between the sides of vanilla buildings

[junior bramble]

Thanks

Its blured?

[midnight obsidian]

you have to pray that discord's compression didn't screw up the image

[junior bramble]

Oy

Sorry, i dont know, maybe it?

[static pollen]

why not scroll through all the categories to find plugins you've probably never seen and suggested, rather than waiting for a new one

btw the plugin store may be inactive at the moment, but there are always plugins coming out on the forum, and in discord servers

[midnight obsidian]

i have a feeling that i have mentioned that we are inactive due to work and school

[static pollen]

understandable

[midnight obsidian]

also, while plugins may not get approved, just letting you know that we actively enjoy disapproving plugins!

[static pollen]

Hmm

[midnight obsidian]

nah just kidding

[static pollen]

Why not make a second plugin store where there is disapproved plugins

Because there so many plugins who are cools

[midnight obsidian]

expect below average plugins lol

[midnight obsidian]

forums™️

[static pollen]

Ye but people can't get gems

And many don't

[midnight obsidian]

i think monetizing plugins just isn't a good idea

[static pollen]

I mean it's not written on disapprove sentences '' put in on forum ''

[midnight obsidian]

we believe it's common sense

i guess not

looking at the unapproved plugins there do seem to be a few cool ones so maybe if i find some freetime i'll do some moderation

[static pollen]

Me too, anyway, honestly I preferred the plugin store to be more member owned, so let's approve some plugins and see what the public thinks, but that doesn't mean if it's negative it's going to be automatically deleted

[warm spruce]

i mean

[static pollen]

the problem is that some will complain that ''ugly'' plugins flood the store

[rain gate]

is the unnaproved plugin section viewable to public eyes

[midnight obsidian]

no

[warm spruce]

if i make a really high skyscraper, with good graphics but not animation is it gonna get disapproved even if i dont have time or motivation to learn how to code?

[midnight obsidian]

the section itself isn't, but you can view what plugins haven't been approved yet by viewing "all plugins"

[midnight obsidian]

i probably would disapprove it

i mean

if it's made up of only unique parts you can't repeat, then okay, i guess you could argue

but if it's only repeating parts, yes, you'll have to learn animations

but they're not difficult, especially with animation dev tool

[static pollen]

some are very good, and are not approved despite the contradiction of the members when they see that it has been disapproved when it is sufficient

[warm spruce]

isnt texture for saving space supposed to be a helping feature?

why did it become mandatory

[midnight obsidian]

technical compliance, point d

[warm spruce]

ok

[static pollen]

hm btw i noticed that some of A dutch guy's plugins are really heavy like more than 2MB for 5 houses

[midnight obsidian]

also, texture saving is very important these days because people love big skyscrapers and they can't download more big skyscrapers if the big skyscrapers waste their texture space

[warm spruce]

makes sense

[midnight obsidian]

alright, can you show me which? i'll check

[static pollen]

And for plugin lag ?

[static pollen]

Sure wait

[static pollen]

Like pantheon by TCPS team

When you build it on Android, it lag

[midnight obsidian]

can't find this pantheon you're speaking of

[static pollen]

uh

[static pollen]

3.7 MB

[midnight obsidian]

it's the thumbnail

[static pollen]

But he said me that about this plugin, so weight increased from 4 MB to 1.4MB

I think it's the same problem so

[static pollen]

Yeah so

[midnight obsidian]

yeah, i had a similar problem where my spruce trees plugin was over a megabyte large

i downscaled the thumbnail and it went to like 400 kilobytes

[static pollen]

but it alters the plugin space of the game?

[midnight obsidian]

no

since the thumbnail isn't a draft, it doesn't interfere with the plugin space

[static pollen]

Alr

[static pollen]

For pantheon

Just 300KB, but when i build it on my Android, it very lag

too much texture?

[midnight obsidian]

no

my man set the influence to like a gazillion

so calculating the influences takes time

[static pollen]

Bruh

[gleaming saddle]

Is it possible to add wars and terrorist attacks plugin

[drifting creek]

there are war related plugins yes

[stoic palm]

Sounds like something not really needed

[drifting creek]

no such plugins as terrorist attacks, we want to keep the game family friendly

[gleaming saddle]

You can make it family friendly if they didn't use the plugin

[drifting creek]

I am aware

but still my point stands

[stoic palm]

Terrorism isn't something that's really needed in a city building game

Nor is a functioning war mechanic

[drifting creek]

but to scratch your itch, there is a war expansion within the game and some war plugins on the forums

[gleaming saddle]

Thank you

[stoic palm]

@gleaming saddle can I ask why you want to add stuff like that to a city builder?

[gleaming saddle]

I like destruction but also people made Theo town look realistic and I'm always wondering when is there a war plugin to make the game realistic

Sorry if my explanation is difficult all I want is a war plugin

[stoic palm]

I mean to each their own but this isn't really meant for war

[surreal oasis]

No, war plugins are not allowed

Which is why i don't usually suggest military vehicles (no other than CH-53 and V-22) in #plugin-suggestions

[gleaming saddle]

Ok thank you

[stoic palm]

@surreal oasis I wouldn't say they aren't allowed

[surreal oasis]

Nah im just scared to end up like the other person that got banned because of this

[stoic palm]

Well he continued to post more and more war stuff after being told not to repeatedly since the response to it was always negative

[rich birch]

wow it's been 5 days... what a record

[stoic palm]

Yep.

[stoic palm]

I feel like stating the obvious fact that people have lives

[drifting creek]

and that all plugin moderators are volunteers, doing this job in their free time

[rich birch]

Yuh i know
I just need to wait for them to take their time now
🙂

[static pollen]

a plugin waiting to be approved is always better than a disapproved plugin

[thorny arrow]

True

[oblique tundra]

Well, i don't have access to builder content channel

But i just wanna say that i have a Youtube channel now

Posted a couple of videos

Started last week

[rare spire]

I fixed the aspect ratio and graphics! Still need to add shading and do the first floor (entrance) of which has the roof in yellow mansard style.

[strange cloud]

Animation when:

[rare spire]

Animation of what?

Ah, alright.

[wanton willow]

[dim thorn]

Zombie npc😮

[frigid tusk]

I can't get them off..

[sharp kettle]

you can turn those pedestrian on roads off

[low loom]

What's the plugin there

[static pollen]

great, maybe you could do like vönark and reuse it to make variations of size, colors etc, I'm willing to do it if you want

[strange cloud]

Gonna update the train roof first i guess (, Indonesia transport pack).

[lunar snow]

@echo nacelle send me all the heavy construction machineries you want me to make

Remember, I need variants

[rain gate]

OYO

[rich birch]

Nc

[lunar snow]

Nope, that's in-game car

[strange cloud]

New roof's

[tidal glen]

It should be done by 2024

[echo nacelle]

💀

[rain gate]

🗿

[tidal glen]

💀

[dapper light]

sometimes we need people in a large space so a tree variant would be more convenient

[lunar snow]

well there are already plugin for that

[sharp kettle]

again my friend, its a fence

[dapper light]

Yeah but the people are kinda meh

And yes abomination machines above

[lunar snow]

i will prioritize the first crane since it can be something for complex industri

[lunar snow]

@midnight obsidian what do you think

[sharp kettle]

(i dont think its possible to do those with fences)

[dapper light]

@lunar snow This also

[lunar snow]

interesting

maybe something like this also

i mean i have already had something like that

[dapper light]

ye

[low loom]

Renai flops

[sick nebula]

Maybe some US trucks?

[lunar snow]

oh sorry buddy, my truck pack is dedicated for european trucks only

[dapper light]

US trucks big bad

EU is more compacted

Asian trucks are basically EU trucks just with different facelift and engine

[lunar snow]

lol

[low loom]

Us truck is a trash

Embrace EU

[unique pivot]

I like us trucks more personally

But they're huge

[lunar snow]

asian trucks are just a mix of both us and eu trucks lol

[lunar snow]

yep us trucks are cool too

[sick nebula]

I mean to use them only as decos. I know that they are not convenient for steers and other things.

[low loom]

We used eu trucks

[dapper light]

Only when you have an insanely large region tbh

[lunar snow]

if i ever make us trucks, i will make them both deco and operational

[dapper light]

Otherwise just EU trucks

[unique pivot]

True, I also meant the looks

[lunar snow]

i mean vietnam uses a lot of conventional trucks too

[low loom]

Bad

[dapper light]

EU truck US truck bla bla bla
Have this

[lunar snow]

lol

[low loom]

Really bad

[dapper light]

I mean we use whatever works and cheap. If the regulation is as strict as other countries within region then we will be using EU trucks by now

[low loom]

See. Think. really bad

[dapper light]

Old US trucks are cheap and reliable, a great upgrade compared to Chinese crapbox

[lunar snow]

lol

US trucks have a large room space also, it provides more comfort for the long-route truckers

[dapper light]

EU truck requires lots of care to keep it running smoothly

[low loom]

I agree, and Us trucks just press accelerate and forget about breaks

[lunar snow]

lol

[dapper light]

Because they run different fuel mixture, and they need some sort of liquid to maintain the low emission (normally Euro 5 or 6)

Plus you know…

German engineering

[low loom]

Terrible

[dapper light]

Yeah I see many Freightliner Cascadia here

Normally really old version

@lunar snow you know, I have been talking bad about trucks in Vietnam

Since we’re a bunch of cheapskates

[lunar snow]

lol

[dapper light]

Chinese trucks are rubbish

The only decent thing we have here is Isuzu

[lunar snow]

how about Howo?

we use them a lot

[dapper light]

Chinese

[low loom]

No Chinese

[dapper light]

But recently there has been an increase in MAN trucks

[lunar snow]

yes it's chinese

[dapper light]

Remember, no Chinese

[dapper light]

Chinese trucks are really poor quality

[lunar snow]

how about howo?

[dapper light]

And they don’t care about the driver

[lunar snow]

we use them a lot

[dapper light]

Yeah like what I said

[lunar snow]

and i cant see what's the bad point of it

[dapper light]

Bad cabin

Weak engine

[low loom]

Well Chinese = cheap + low quality

[dapper light]

And this is the reason why they are hella slow on bridges, especially since we normally pull more than allowed

As for European trucks, they are really strong so overweight shouldn’t be much of an issue

Insane torque

[lunar snow]

i mean i dont think they should overweight the truck anyway?

[dapper light]

I mean how are they gonna make profit following regulated weight…

[lunar snow]

there will be consequences if they do that

[unique pivot]

okay slightly off-topic

#general

[dapper light]

The exception is the joint project between MAN and a Chinese company

Yeah

Aight

[lunar snow]

like the road will the road will be degraded

[low loom]

I believe you're from HK

[lunar snow]

he's vietnamese

[low loom]

Glad ||No Chinese||

[lunar snow]

lol

[unique pivot]

what is it

[low loom]

Rubickscube

[midnight obsidian]

I mean

It's okay

But it lacks what makes theotown icons look like theotown icons

But it's a good start

What is it supposed to be for

[low loom]

Idk what it is

[midnight obsidian]

Best i could think of is shipping containers from the front

Ah

Just looked into it more, icons do not have noise

Or well, icons should not have noise

[low loom]

Can't see the gate

[dapper light]

half Chinese

[lunar snow]

wow cool

[dapper light]

Yet I always diss them

[lunar snow]

lmao why

[dapper light]

CCP bad

[lunar snow]

ah

[low loom]

Ccp?

[dapper light]

Chinese Communist Party

[low loom]

Ohhh bad

[lunar snow]

lmao the list is very long

i wish we have better list

[low loom]

Nice diy

I wish i can disable that kind of deco

[lunar snow]

thanks to you @low loom, i can now do this thing

now we only need the ian''s terrain tool

[dapper light]

Noice

[low loom]

Ohh are you saying those trees are decorations?

[dapper light]

Yeah

[lunar snow]

yep

[low loom]

Tf?

Why not type tree

[lunar snow]

[low loom]

Now this is worth making

Thank you random vietnamese site

https://phutungxaydung.com/34-loai-may-cong-trinh-duoc-dung-nhieu-trong-xay-dung-o-viet-nam/

[midnight obsidian]

lol

phutungmayxaydung

[lunar snow]

the site looks like something they made in 2009

but it has good information for the construction machineries

It helps me learn a lot about construction stuffs actually

like this concrete batching plant they usually set up in construction site

[unique pivot]

2009 looking websites are cool

[lunar snow]

lol tru

but eh, it's not like I will make the construction stuffs now

Still need to do the truck pack and phat linh hotel

[crimson laurel]

If you're talking about Ancient Civilizations pack, you will not get it in the store anymore

Jolly has decided to only post updates on forum now

[hot shuttle]

any plugins for diagonal railways

[midnight obsidian]

i'm not gonna bother explaining at this point

please just stop complaining

[stoic palm]

@rain gate plugin store mods volunteer their time and effort to do their jobs. It's important to remember they have lives outside of this

[midnight obsidian]

honestly evan

if you see complaining again

just warn

[orchid sorrel]

I don't really think that's warn worthy

I did just disapprove 3 plugins anyway

[midnight obsidian]

ah good

i mean, they are the "no sh*t" type

[stoic palm]

Personally I think warning for asking a question like that is abit more 1984 than I'd like to be

[midnight obsidian]

okay then

from the same person

multiple times

[stoic palm]

Oh

In that case then yeah

[frigid tusk]

Man I already love this plugin

[unique pivot]

https://phutungxaydung.com/34-loai-may-cong-trinh-duoc-dung-nhieu-trong-xay-dung-o-viet-nam/

[haughty anvil]

Why did you add more zones necessary for the building? (I also don't know how plugins are made so don't be mad at me)

[haughty anvil]

Nice

[lunar snow]

Well, it works as a ground for the building

I will remove it in the final ver of this building

[haughty anvil]

Hmm understand, i wonder how plugins work so i asked it cause some creators dont removes it

[lunar snow]

Ye I see

For the glass shadows

[lunar snow]

i can send you the glass thing if you want

[crimson basin]

What do you mean?

[low loom]

You need an isometric shadow below the balcony

[lunar snow]

hmm i see

[low loom]

Isometric not the same direction as the panel

[lunar snow]

alr

[low loom]

You r not going to detail those repeated floors right?

[crimson basin]

is there a way to increase crime for a building?

[thorny arrow]

I'm now finished the animation of the Linden
