car on your roads

[urban grove]

The traffic is horrible in some areas but eh who cares. That's not my problem

[frigid tusk]

such a great mayor🥰

[uncut acorn]

Insane

[red lintel]

A game changer

[frigid tusk]

how roads are placed:

[crimson basin]

For a while now

[uncut acorn]

Prolly big

[weak kestrel]

Isn't possible to make functional 😔

[frigid tusk]

Nop

Cars wouldn't love it

[lunar snow]

@frigid tusk you mean cars cant drive on it?

[frigid tusk]

Imagine seeing cars outside of the bridge while driving on the bridge

Car can go, but roads aren't connected

[frigid tusk]

^

[lunar snow]

Ah that's good

I thought it's purely nonfunctional

[frigid tusk]

Ramps won't be functional at all

[lunar snow]

Wow

[frigid tusk]

But will be optional

[lunar snow]

That's suck

[frigid tusk]

Use ramps from other plugins lol

^ that's what I did

[dull shore]

This is Highway plugin discussion?

[static sandal]

ok

[empty sigil]

Ehm not necessarily, it's a general plugin related channel so ?

[frigid tusk]

don't mind the grass, idk where i put the roads

[mellow goblet]

Dayum that's good

Is that private?

[gilded current]

wip I think

[static pollen]

@frigid tusk it is a real bridge or a road on ground that is illusion ?

[frigid tusk]

real

[urban grove]

Insane!

[weak kestrel]

@urban grove dual,your tippenard city could too realistic after xina's this plugin 😁,

[urban grove]

Well first i need to learn it. How to build it and master it

But it doesn't look too hard to build it

[weak kestrel]

Hmm bcuz xina saw how it's work

[frigid tusk]

just place manually one by one each road tile and then change the type of bridge and put advanced road in it

[urban grove]

Ok

[weak kestrel]

Will you change road designs if you get xina's this plugin ?!

[frigid tusk]

i have to delete some things and try to allow single lanes too

[weak kestrel]

Sounds more good

[frigid tusk]

there are useless pillars here

[urban grove]

That would be nice

[frigid tusk]

non isometric is already ready

[rustic tree]

The road pls

[frigid tusk]

private

[rain gate]

lmao

[crimson basin]

those line lengths look inconsistant

[frigid tusk]

wdym

[weak kestrel]

@frigid tusk how many lanes will be in this ?!

[frigid tusk]

idk

you're too hyped lmao

[crimson basin]

is that actually the same length?

[frigid tusk]

yes?

[crimson basin]

interesting lmao

anyway, carry on

[rain gate]

this part looks so weird to me for some reason

[frigid tusk]

true

[thorny arrow]

omg Xina is online 😱

and that piece of road is nice

[frigid tusk]

always been online

[thorny arrow]

Are you making a new road plugin ??

[frigid tusk]

yep

i'm also making a stadium

[thorny arrow]

for me, I'm now making a pack of Modern Prague's buildings

[frigid tusk]

nice

we need more small modern buildings

[thorny arrow]

yep, we need more small 3x3 and 4x4 buildings 👌

[frigid tusk]

let's go dm for this

[stoic palm]

Dear lord at 3AM my time I am longggggg gone lol

[red lintel]

[formal harbor]

[dusky knoll]

Let me show

[formal harbor]

[dusky knoll]

I want to move these two buildings

But can't select them

[stoic palm]

Those are abandoned just destroy them

[dusky knoll]

You can destroy them?

Thanks G

[dusky knoll]

How do I delete building @stoic palm

[stoic palm]

with the bulldozer tool

As you would anything else

[dusky knoll]

This is fun

Thanks

[stoic echo]

criticism is more than welcome

[empty sigil]

Looks very nice, that "dead pixel" in the corner of the roof is the only flaw.

You can make many variations of the same building, maybe one with graffiti, another with an emergency exit staircase, and another with more side windows, and so on.

[stoic echo]

well actually I wanted to imitate this overhang that you can see in this picture

it didnt work out quite well ig

but thank you

[empty sigil]

Oh I was imagining the East Village apartments

[urban grove]

Modern Prague buildings? Cool. Can you show some of them?

[glacial galleon]

Beautiful It would be for an American city

[uncut acorn]

Perfect fit for 1x3 pixel person

[little shoal]

@frigid tusk this has been done already before
https://forum.theotown.com/viewtopic.php?p=142963&hilit=Invisible+road#p142963

JustAnyone has done road that are invisible and go underground and bridge

[humble iron]

He said the dead pixel is supposed to be an overhang

[humble iron]

This

Yeah well he said that it doesnt work out quite well

[weak kestrel]

@thorny arrow Me too please 🙏

[glacial galleon]

@earnest bramble Do you plan to upload your accessories to the Game? Because the truth is they are really good

[thorny arrow]

@urban grove Ttlover's city tower and my new version

[urban grove]

Nice

@thorny arrow sorry to ping you but what happened to the other towers you've made? Are they cancelled?

[thorny arrow]

half cancelled, half turned into priv plugin

[urban grove]

Aww why? :(

[uncut acorn]

How is your opera plugin thingy going?

[thorny arrow]

mostly doesn't have nightmode

[uncut acorn]

I sort of seen your progress every time and every 1/2 months ig

[thorny arrow]

you mean Haiphong's Opera house ?

[uncut acorn]

With different plugins you made

[uncut acorn]

Yes

[urban grove]

You cancelled/made them private just because they don't have night animation?

[thorny arrow]

it was disappeared in March 2022

[uncut acorn]

Dang

[thorny arrow]

nah

it's my deepest secret

🤫

[uncut acorn]

oh

[frigid tusk]

Thx for waiting half of the effort but he hasn't don non isometric bridge uh

[little shoal]

Well I'm sorry but I could not find the link

In the forums

[frigid tusk]

Excuses accepted buddy

[dreamy hearth]

Oooh icic

[echo prairie]

What's this?

Another game textures?

[crimson basin]

Doesnt look theotown

[humble iron]

It's from designer city

I've played that game before

100% from there

[echo prairie]

Which is better In your opinion?

[humble iron]

1st one looks like a toy although more detailed, and 2nd one looks more fierce although less detailed

Idk

[orchid sorrel]

sorry but there's no such thing as "better than mdk"

[echo prairie]

The mdk one are private?

[potent geyser]

The nose, it's something strange

Oxxo 2.0

[orchid sorrel]

no?

[echo prairie]

Really?

[dusty hill]

oh, f...

it's very dumb to steal assets from other game only downscaling it for TT plugin

[frigid tusk]

Dayum erionit ground update is FIRE 🔥

but

i'm lost there are too much things

[lapis moat]

If not a whole new system, just have a hazmat building with custom vehicles and have it act as a fire department

(#plugin-suggestions message)

I always forget about the context bit

[rain gate]

The last of us in theotown be wilding

[kindred plank]

Ah finaly

[frigid tusk]

nicer than nice

[little shoal]

I need help
I turned the .zip file into a .plugin file but when I load the game it does not appear
How do you turn a zip into a plugin file

[empty sigil]

Just write Pencrypt-plugin in a DM to @agile forum with the ZIP file attached in the same message.

[little shoal]

Wow thank you so much

[stoic palm]

Yes

Given the nature of the graffiti on that building, I find it best to not share it here

Sure and I am the queen of England

[empty sigil]

I only saw a bunch of pixelated colors in the graffiti, what did I miss?

[little shoal]

Ok evan you can continue to try to sweap it under the rug

[stoic palm]

@little shoal I'm not sweeping anything under the rug

Most of your alls issue happened outside of this server

And if you would like to bring it here I will ban you all harassment

[little shoal]

Alright

[glacial galleon]

Does anyone know how to fix the bug when you enter the game and you get a java error?

[stoic palm]

Can you send the error and use #town-square please?

[glacial galleon]

Oh ok, give me a moment

[drifting marsh]

Does anyone have this tree plugin?

And also, is Sidewalk a Plugin or a Trick?

[glacial galleon]

Mmmmm

Lo eh visto pero no lo conozco

[frigid tusk]

#language-bar please

[formal harbor]

I think it was a french plugin or smth

Not sure

[ripe jasper]

iirc it's an altered version of an autumn tree plugin

it's in a chinese gc app i think, QQ

[hardy anvil]

Private

[drifting marsh]

Can it be found on a server?

[uncut acorn]

You’re the next MewMew

Bro this road is really cool, I wish I can use it for my city traffic

[weak kestrel]

What's this??

[stoic palm]

How large is that palace gonna be?

[weak kestrel]

Name of plugin ?! 😀

[static sandal]

Palacio Nacional (Mexico government complex )

[static sandal]

It has reached its maximum extension

[stoic palm]

Goodness, how many tiles is that?

[weak kestrel]

Pls work on transportation plugin that you have lost !☺️😀

[stoic palm]

Looks like a 20x25? If I can count right

Very impressive, best of luck!

[static sandal]

Hmm

It’s 20x23

Asymmetry is not accidental.

[stoic palm]

Very interesting! Was that whole structure built at once? Or in parts?

[static sandal]

By parts

I wish it was modular, but it’s a headache.

[stoic palm]

Well your already putting in great work so no need to worry about that lmao

[static sandal]

If I manage to make the palace, I will continue with this.

[stoic palm]

Keep it up though!

[urban grove]

Will this be the biggest building in TheoTown?

[static sandal]

Hmmm

Maybe

[rain gate]

wait till I make a 50x50 tile white box

[urban grove]

Make it 100×100

[static sandal]

In real life, the building measures 40,000 m²

Something curious is that it was built above the headquarters of the government of Tenochtitlán

[weak kestrel]

Do this if you manage to make this both, Mexico City metropolitan cathedral

[static sandal]

Maybe, but first I have to finish the largest building

[weak kestrel]

I think it's little complexed 😀😀

[static sandal]

Lmao

[thin wraith]

Vanilla tweaks might be continued

I like the museum ✨

[dusty hill]

[urban grove]

Honestly TCPS is my favorite Plugin Team in TheoTown. Their works are pretty good

[dusty hill]

yeah, same

they deserve a medal

anyway, ehh

i can't decide what to do in PRT now...

and still we haven't any shipwreck plugins

[urban grove]

You could make one yourself

[dusty hill]

nah, i won't

i never did any ship in TT

mostly i will do buildings

[formal harbor]

Whats the worst plugin yall have ever seen that got approved

[red lintel]

"Home house"
basically used a stolen frame from kulche and thats the entirety, as soon it was released, it had been deleted

[static sandal]

Maybe

It’s 20x23

[echo prairie]

Those guys will take over the plugin market 💪

The DSA have moon rovers?

I mean in the moon 🌙

[dusty hill]

SM mall (the one which was just vanilla building, but with) deleted as soon as it apeared

[willow aurora]

I searh this chateau

[urban grove]

Uh wrong channel?

[crimson basin]

no

they are looking for it

but im not sure what they are finding

[urban grove]

Oh ok

[urban grove]

What's this chateau you're looking for?

[crimson basin]

Hey @untold zealot dont you (or atleast the experienced creators on your team) check what is being posted on the store by members?

Some look so out of place

[willow aurora]

Am really sy

I want it

[rain gate]

if your refering to the one on the left then its private

[willow aurora]

Ok ok

I don't know 😔

[crimson basin]

its alright

[empty sigil]

Any detail to fix on the facade? I'm still going to start with the roof details

[crimson basin]

does the flag have a shadow or am i blind?

[empty sigil]

Not yet, in any case those flags only will be available through Upgrade (as the Trees in the LM) and not in the main building

[rain gate]

Plugin?

[rain gate]

private

[dusty hill]

i mean the crappy one

with slightly changed vanilla texture

[ripe jasper]

On the upper half there are some missed details like the 2 circles on the left and right

other than that it looks good

[red lintel]

Beautiful facade!

[frigid tusk]

ANNND done

[formal harbor]

Learn this to not make the same mistake as i did

Never ever save as backup

Create its own file for a project

Its all gone

[formal harbor]

Nice bridge btw

[frigid tusk]

thx

[urban grove]

Is this the New York Stock Exchange building?

[frigid tusk]

100% it is

ArturoJ spawned one day but what a member, great plugins, great advices

[formal harbor]

Ye he very good

[formal harbor]

Who can guess what this is going to be

[empty sigil]

Yep, the only thing is that I have to put an exaggeratedly long description in the plugin, since I have to place it for educational purposes, because that building has a trademark.

[patent swift]

work in progress

[patent swift]

nice

[formal harbor]

Thanks

[empty sigil]

Ussé Castle? Or is it some parliament? It looks pretty good

[drifting marsh]

Reminds me of a place in Gta 3

Also pins,as i could remember.

https://forum.theotown.com/

And click the plugin store,then help.

[crimson basin]

its the same as making a short building

[fallow sky]

[crimson basin]

Yep

The template is just for the building basw

[weak kestrel]

@untold zealot pls if possible to make a fence pack with diagonal and non isometric version with gates ✨✨

[crimson basin]

@junior night

[crimson basin]

idk you asked for it in #plugin-suggestions

so?

[junior night]

[crimson basin]

[junior night]

is it downloadable

[crimson basin]

yes

[junior night]

tank yuo bnuy

[dusty hill]

i guess it's just downsclaed image

[crimson basin]

yeah

[drowsy briar]

is there a way to make my building not appear randomly?

[crimson basin]

yeah auto build blacklist plugin by JA

[drowsy briar]

Owh, thanks for info

but I want to implement it into my plugin

My building must be connected to other parts. if one of them appears randomly it is unethical.

[crimson basin]

ah

let me find it

[drowsy briar]

so the command is "if set : true/false" ?

[orchid sorrel]

command??

[lapis moat]

I believe the proper word is.. string

[orchid sorrel]

no it is not

[lapis moat]

I tried

I had this all written down somewhere, dunno where I put that book

[orchid sorrel]

it's simply a bool draft attribute

[lapis moat]

Boolean, that's the one

I found the notebook, saw the stuff I had written down

[magic pike]

What do you think? How can this building be improved?

[uncut acorn]

Noice

[orchid scroll]

Idk

[orchid scroll]

Btw is it a mosque

[crimson basin]

Longer shadows (till baseplate edge)

[formal harbor]

Brightness on the bottom floor shadow side is too light

[fossil crystal]

Well done my guy!

[magic pike]

Thx

[magic pike]

Yep

[rich birch]

So beautiful, can't wait to use it

[lapis crystal]

I've added noise

good&

?

[empty sigil]

Just need an entrance and some detail to the roof (maybe an AC unit?) But it looks good so far, will you do it with more color variations?

[dusty hill]

also better divide it to 2 parts

bcz 4x4 will only waste empty 2x4 space

[torpid ivy]

i made some custom houses

i play pc version but how do i put it on the game (not on the forum)

because it doesnt show up

[lapis crystal]

yes, I was going to make doors, but air conditioning is possible, I’m thinking of making the building taller since I have 2 pixels between the windows and not 3

[crimson basin]

if you made a json also, put it in your plugin folder, restart app. You find it under whichever type you put it under. If its RCI, look under manual build

progress ✨
left side not done yet, winows, shops, roof decor and noise left

[torpid ivy]

test house

[hardy anvil]

Nice

[empty sigil]

I only fixed the shape for you, it's up to you to give it more details in texture and so on. I recommend u to check World Texture so you can have a look at the dimensions, game design style, etc.

I also recommend you take a look at:

How to create a small building in 10 step

That was really nice of you

Hello, where can I find the news ticker plugin used in this video? Thanks in advance. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gaMYWrAsRWQ&pp=ygUIdGhlb3Rvd24%3D

[torpid ivy]

to find the news ticker plugin used in the video, please type "theonews" in the plugin store search bar. if you find it, go ahead and install it. hope this helps!

[rain gate]

Thanks 👍

[hardy anvil]

Just adding some details
@torpid ivy

[strange cloud]

Personally better remove the grass,so you can use any ground below it.

[hardy anvil]

There was already grass when I added Details

[strange cloud]

They meant for detail on the roof bro,and walls. Grass ground personally, wasn't necessary since you cannot add any grass decal as their wish.

[hardy anvil]

I'm just following the original photo

[strange cloud]

I see

[hardy anvil]

[empty sigil]

Hahaha nice, practically its almost finished, he would only have to improve the ground with some details as if it were a stone path, maybe another roof so it is not flat, and then his plugin would be done.

[empty sigil]

#plugin-discussion message That is the original, that is why the collaboration to help him. 😅

[dense garnet]

Hello, What do you think of the Williamsburg Post Building and the Prague old town clock

Thanks for liking 🙂

[mortal flume]

question: when can we get 6-angle yield & stop signs?

[crimson basin]

theres a road signs plugin but generally, those signs are too small and would just be one red pixel

[mortal flume]

as long as it stops cars, to prevent many accidents, it's fine

someone put 6-angle yield and stop signs in the game. PLEASE!!!! to many deaths in my town

[crimson basin]

👀

you know signs are just decorational, right?

to stop road accidents you need better roads

[glacial galleon]

Stadium for personal use, I did it for a team in a Fictitious league, part of a role-play

[frigid tusk]

it looks like a 3D sprite in a video game

[formal harbor]

Its the milka lilade

The milka factory

That orange line on the edge is where those bottom sprites go

So it doesnt take 13x13 space

[frigid tusk]

the most cursed pic of theotown

[formal harbor]

Look like the NAM mod in SC4

[red lintel]

Its not cursed.... Its a blessing to my eyes🥹

[formal harbor]

Yes it works

Ignore thta line i will fix it

[glacial galleon]

Beautiful, is it modular?

[formal harbor]

I guess

But its limited to one line

[glacial galleon]

Oh ok

Will you upload it?

[weak kestrel]

Will you release in store ?!

[formal harbor]

I need to make the warehouse and then i will release it

[glacial galleon]

No, it is for personal use

[glacial galleon]

Good

[weak kestrel]

I like Prague old town clock when will you release this ??

[weak kestrel]

Why, this is so nice 🙂

[frigid tusk]

you look so hyped for everything lmao

[glacial galleon]

It is customized for a team from a Fictitious league From my country role

The most beautiful Plugin 🤣

[weak kestrel]

@frigid tusk what's about your fence pack, isn't approved yet ?!

[frigid tusk]

not even in pendal approving

[glacial galleon]

Country Houses?

[crimson basin]

nothing in particular

started off as a purple house with white roofing because it looked nice

[glacial galleon]

Oh ok

[crimson basin]

but kulche didnt like it so i made colour varriations

but kulche didnt like them anyway

[glacial galleon]

It looks god

[crimson basin]

thanks

feels like they are missing something though

[glacial galleon]

The textures of the ceilings blew my mind

[crimson basin]

of the roof?

thankyou, I had so much fun doing that

[stoic echo]

If I were you I would drastically lower the saturation of your walls and maybe extend the roof a bit to the sides to give an overhang feel...

You could try that if you want

[crimson basin]

I like the saturated colours, but thanks for the advice

[rain gate]

Couldn't find it in the game, sorry

[dusty hill]

bcz in game store doesn't have this plugin

[empty sigil]

They look pretty good, I like the colors, only the white roof is a bit boring, why don't you try adding a roof window or try another color?

[near flame]

that is nice

[hardy anvil]

White roof Suitable for winter

[burnt bramble]

Personally I like the white roof

[empty sigil]

Here it is also common to see white roofs because they reflect the sun's rays and therefore absorb less heat and blablabla, but hey, my opinion is also personal, that it looks a bit boring (even irl 😅)

[brisk raptor]

Hello everyone!
Does anyone know what some plugins from that city are called?
(The city is not mine, I will only use it for inspiration)

Mainly trees, roads and some buildings

and some decorations

[crimson basin]

I just like the look of white roofs with bright colours

[empty sigil]

An example with the white roof then

That one has an example chimney, so it gives some color to the roof.

[crimson basin]

i cant figure out how roof shadows work so im going to pass

[empty sigil]

Well it doesn't look bad at all, which shadow are you referring to?

[orchid sorrel]

the building is nice but yeah I don't like the colors at all

[formal harbor]

Triangle 🗣️🔥

[crimson basin]

if i put one of those things on the roof it will cast a shadow on the roof

[crimson basin]

Have you ever liked anything Ive made?

[orchid sorrel]

lol

[crimson basin]

I meant that genuinely

Have you?

[orchid sorrel]

why wouldn't I

I'm just giving you advice how to make them better

[crimson basin]

I know

I just didnt like them black or with other collours

If I post in the store will you approve it for me? 🥺

[orchid sorrel]

you can approve them yourself lol

[crimson basin]

Im allowed to?

[orchid sorrel]

you're a plugin mod

well unless you aren't using animations for the color variants then I can disapprove it for you

[crimson basin]

I am not

[orchid sorrel]

beaned

[crimson basin]

Look, by the time i separate the colour and non colour elements and colour them, it will probably take just as much space

[orchid sorrel]

lol what

"color": [] exists

[crimson basin]

yeah but kulche

that little house place is in a different colour

[orchid sorrel]

what

[crimson basin]

entranceway

[orchid sorrel]

it isn't????

[crimson basin]

it is

its slightly desaturated

[empty sigil]

I am pretty sure you can fragment all the walls even

[orchid sorrel]

why would you do that

[crimson basin]

because it kept blending in too much

[rain gate]

Ok

[empty sigil]

Uhm?

[modern kestrel]

Now make them connect the road

[crimson basin]

^

fine fine, ill figure something out 😭

[orchid sorrel]

desaturating them hardly makes a difference and only causes them to look weird

[strange cloud]

Damn, coloring great,but the roof seems a bit too bright.

[orchid sorrel]

anyway, why is that tiny wall brighter than the large main wall here?

[crimson basin]

because that entranceway is in a lighter colour

[orchid sorrel]

poor design choice lol

you're good at creating plugins in general but your color choices are always so questionable

[crimson basin]

they ran out of paint so they painted it a different colour 🙂

fine, ill figure out how to get a base for the house now

[lapis crystal]

good?

[crimson basin]

I merged all the layers and saved it

[orchid sorrel]

looks fine, but please don't repost images

[orchid sorrel]

just select the parts that you want colored

[lapis crystal]

sorry

[strange cloud]

Not bad,better use animations,since you can have multiple variants of the same building (just different floors).

[crimson basin]

have you seen the other thing i was working on?

[orchid sorrel]

the asian wall to wall building things?

[crimson basin]

yes

[orchid sorrel]

idk how to call it lol

[lapis crystal]

I'm not familiar with animation, can you introduce me to it? If you have time.

[crimson basin]

Tong Lau or something

[orchid sorrel]

there are a lot of tutorials on animations on the forums

I bet on youtube, even

[lapis crystal]

I'd like to make the windows light up.

[crimson basin]

what do i do to fix the right buildings, they look weird

[orchid sorrel]

right buildings?

[crimson basin]

left

[lapis crystal]

Okay, thank you.)

[crimson basin]

the pink and green one

[strange cloud]

There's a forum tutorial i think,if there's not,then maybe use in game building for reference,such as those 2x2 blue,yellow,green apartments.

[orchid sorrel]

uhh get better at colors lol

the green is very unusual

[strange cloud]

I can send ya in DM for my Pyongyang apartment buildings for example.

[crimson basin]

I colourdropped the building

[orchid sorrel]

that's a bad idea

every time

[crimson basin]

should i make the pink darker? what about the green

[strange cloud]

Personally, I usually adjust it a bit when I do so.

[lapis crystal]

No thanks, I'll do it myself, thanks for telling me about the training. Have a good day, guys.

[orchid sorrel]

green is an unusual color for buildings in general

[lapis crystal]

https://tenor.com/view/котенок-котики-кот-коты-cat-gif-2698092036177484386

[orchid sorrel]

if I were you I'd just switch it to something else

[orchid sorrel]

ugly

[crimson basin]

Actually using it as a semi fixed reference

[crimson basin]

You said you dont like poor asian housing 😭

[orchid sorrel]

yes

that's quite the vile color for a building

[crimson basin]

lmao

then pick a good green shade for me

[red lintel]

My house irl is the color green
the paint degraded tho and became an ugly mint green

[orchid sorrel]

no I'm not doing green buildings

[red lintel]

I do find the color to be very out of place in the block

[orchid sorrel]

unless you send me the file for your buildings and then maybe I can play around with it

[strange cloud]

Same,mine is also green,ducks eggshells green.

[red lintel]

The original paint color of mine is a deep green

[orchid sorrel]

maybe you should go into some shades of tea or pistachio instead of this baby vomit emerald

(while we're at giving colors fancy names)

[crimson basin]

Ah just sat down to eat, will in 5 mins

[red lintel]

I prefer colors that are more desaturated

and slightly darker than the original

[strange cloud]

Pastels?

[red lintel]

I mean slightly more saturated than usual

Sorry i was wrong with the desaturated part

[orchid sorrel]

well desaturated doesn't mean pastel

but yeah it's much more pleasant to look at than pure hues

[red lintel]

Im not a fan of eyedropping colors

Instead of the usual beige i went for a darker value

[orchid sorrel]

why on earth is this roof section on another layer

[crimson basin]

to copy paste it

[orchid sorrel]

I mean this particular green line

the top ones are on the correct layer lol

[crimson basin]

actually, no idea

i meant to only put the grey part on another layer

oh yeah

its on another layer cause the noise was messing up the roof

the roof already has noise so more noise makes it look weird

[orchid sorrel]

should be a bit more bearable I guess

I'd do the pink one but I can't select it properly because it's so similar to other bright colors and you have no "draft" layers

[crimson basin]

i did

they were merged

[orchid sorrel]

that's what I'm talking about

[crimson basin]

do you want the version without noise with the layers?

[orchid sorrel]

maybe

I just want to be able to quickly select all pink

[crimson basin]

idk the one without is missing all the details and stuff

[orchid sorrel]

uhhh this doesn't help much

anyway feel free to have this and see if it's a bit better

not a huge fan still

[crimson basin]

did you change the pink one?

i cant notice any changes

[orchid sorrel]

I told you I didn't

[crimson basin]

ah

do you think making the window frames darker would help?

[orchid sorrel]

because I can't select it easily and I'm not spending 30 minutes to select the frame 1 by one

maybe?

why did I even say "one" in two different ways

[crimson basin]

lol

appreciate your help kulche 💜
love you 😘

[orchid sorrel]

you're welcoe

[crimson basin]

darker windows look even more blended in

[orchid sorrel]

yeah because your "darker" means "closer in value to the environment" and not "darker than the environment"

[crimson basin]

i used the same value as the green one had

black windows?

okay i think it looks better now

[left schooner]

On forums maybe?

?

[glacial galleon]

I think it is the Most Useless Plugin in the Store, my Respect to the one who created it since it must have taken a lot of time

[dusty hill]

still having problems with roof on Garcz station

[crimson basin]

me: why do all the frames look the same
json: this is why

[orchid sorrel]

lol

[crimson basin]

It uses animations, happy now?

[orchid sorrel]

congration :D

[crimson basin]

did the wall contrast drop lol

[orchid sorrel]

the shaded wall could use some contrast though

yes

the outbuilding still looks weird

[crimson basin]

i dont know, its not my fault 🤷‍♀️

the entranceway?

[orchid sorrel]

my brother in christ you're the one creating the plugin

yes

[crimson basin]

mightve been that i lowered brightness

[dusty hill]

hmm?

did i made a good shape?

[near flame]

what are u making

[dusty hill]

station building

[crimson basin]

colours got a bit darker but oh well

[stoic echo]

Wait so it's possible to use only one animation texture to have the same buildings in different colors?

[crimson basin]

yeah if you want ill share the code

[stoic echo]

Yeah sure I'll need that someday

[stoic echo]

Thanks

[orchid sorrel]

that doesn't look like more contrast to me

also imagine title/text for rci

[crimson basin]

oh

forgot they dont show up

whatever

[livid agate]

they do get resolved

by the auto build blacklist plugin tho

[orchid sorrel]

are you sure you're making the shaded walls darker though

[crimson basin]

really? what do they do?

[orchid sorrel]

lol

interesting

[livid agate]

its just the game replaces them with residential/commercial/etc LEVEL when displaying

[crimson basin]

i mean the first time i used the lighter thing in the hue menu so this time i skipped it

[orchid sorrel]

the what??

[crimson basin]

i think title gets shown though, while building, right?

[livid agate]

no idea

id have to check that

[crimson basin]

I think it does

[livid agate]

it should be few lines of code to change it anyway

[crimson basin]

why would I remove it though

It just does nothing

[orchid sorrel]

the same reason you wouldn't keep an onion in the corner of your room

it does nothing

[crimson basin]

Vampires 😭

[orchid sorrel]

lol since when do vampires and onions have something in common

[livid agate]

'le garlic

[crimson basin]

Onions will do

they both make you cry :)

[orchid sorrel]

I'm convinced you've never seen garlic in your life

anyway

[crimson basin]

I regret making a zip folder to begin with now

[orchid sorrel]

....just unzip it??????

[crimson basin]

anyway they do show the name

and im finally happy with the colours

look, I even made the contrast better

[lapis moat]

Cute lil houses :3

[crimson basin]

I forgot the game uses the colour as a "multiply" or whatever it is so the actual shadows got faded out

[crimson basin]

thankie

[lapis moat]

Ja :v

[orchid sorrel]

looks good enough

though I'd still fix the entrance

[crimson basin]

what do you want fixed on the entrance

[orchid sorrel]

the colors

[crimson basin]

it uses the same colour as the main building

its not even a different hue anymore since i made the base black and white

oh wait, i see what you mean

[empty sigil]

Btw, did you manage to do it with animations frames and composition to be 2x4?

[formal harbor]

How do u get the plugin crator role?!

[dusty hill]

i think it might be too dark

[frigid tusk]

Do the same thing but not too dark

[fresh badge]

thanks,bro!

[dusty hill]

ok, but you made me upgrade the texture of one alr done building

[frigid tusk]

It doesn't look symmetrical

[formal harbor]

Thats because he forgot the 4 pixel bottom tile

And he ended it with a single pixel

[dusty hill]

what?

[frigid tusk]

It is forgettable

[dusty hill]

but how do i make the red brick colored as in image

[formal harbor]

See how

The bottom

Of the 1x1 tile

Has 4 pixels

And it ends with 2 pixels

[dusty hill]

well

gotta fix it then

[frigid tusk]

No need to respect 4 pixels

2 works too

[dusty hill]

nvm

building was almost getting out of plot

anyways, what color you prefer for this color of bricks

[formal harbor]

I like that

That like brownish red

[dusty hill]

i mean which HEX is good for the red brick

[formal harbor]

What i do is color pick if i cant find right color

[dusty hill]

not exacly from the picture

but from someone else plugin

[empty sigil]

And why don't you use the color of the image?

[indigo girder]

I tried installing a plugin, but when I open the directory, there is nothing

[empty sigil]

[rain gate]

good luck

[crimson basin]

Lol what @orchid sorrel

I find that kind of funny

I think i know why and how to fix it

Its a type building so ig it starts a fire without fire influence

[orchid sorrel]

[crimson basin]

Yeah

Ill do that later

[weak kestrel]

Where's that guy who makes the Vietnamese buildings , called genius, is he quit ?!

No,hop on into his discord server if you want to know his side.

[weak kestrel]

[dapper light]

Nah he just went rouge

I personally won’t stand on any side

Not my business

[dusty hill]

another aircraft carrier

i really doubt the appearance of new wreckship plugins

[crimson basin]

@orchid sorrel 🥳

[near flame]

it is in his servers

[dusty hill]

i should stop complaining abt shipwrecks

and finally motivate myself for doing plugins

[echo prairie]

That's the attitude 💪😤

[formal harbor]

What was the code for category inside a category

Was it just type the category

@echo prairie

[strange cloud]

"type":"category",
"category":"category_id"

[formal harbor]

Ty

[strange cloud]

Np

[grim galleon]

hello, I just loaded my plugin but it gives me an error that no category was found, I checked the code and the category was "commercial"

[echo prairie]

"category":"(for example)decoration,

And

[livid agate]

there is no category called "commercial"

[echo prairie]

If you want make a category inside a category

[{
"id":"(your new category)❌",
"frames":[{"bmp":".png"}],
"type":"category",
"category":"$cat_military00",
"title":""
}]

And add that ID in "category":"❌", in your plugin 👍

[crimson basin]

depends on what youre doing, most of the time you dont need to set a category

[crimson basin]

its actually $cat_decoration00

i think

[echo prairie]

Just example hahaha 😂😂 don't worry 😊

[grim galleon]

it gives the Id of my plugin and there is the "commercial" on it, does it have something to do with it?

[crimson basin]

show your code

[crimson basin]

if the type is commercial, it will already be in the commercial category. it also isnt really a category name but yeah

[rain gate]

Looking for a LA Styled Suburb Plugin.

I need it for my map

Is there a code that sets the flying altitude height for a type helicopter asset

Not diatance

#updates message

Is there an example image about that update? If it is what I imagine, it would be interesting.

[crimson basin]

for the xutoms icons, it is in the aCI server

since that feature was implemented specifically because they required it

[weak kestrel]

Is this any plugin that contains gates ?!

[empty sigil]

Great then, we need now is a function that allows to add inhabitants to non-RCI buildings

[orchid sorrel]

it's simply custom images on warning frames

[dusk kernel]

well, congrats
you sucessfully persuaded me into playing tha game again

[crimson basin]

why?

[oblique tundra]

Hello Philip

[dusk kernel]

I'm not philip
I'm a ghost 👻

[lapis moat]

Spooky
#plugin-discussion is haunted

[red lintel]

Im shocked to the bone

[empty sigil]

It would give a lot more creativity to the potential of certain buildings.

Example: I'm doing now the NYSE, and I was planning on doing it commercial type (so it would have workers) but that limited me in certain tags (as simple as Max count, price, etc.) and functions that are only available for not RCI, so I had to discard it, because everything else is now going to be functional, yes, but it takes away that magic of realism of workers, that function would still be interesting for only Trusted Plugin Creators, for reasons of not using it to exploit more inhabitants per city.

[red lintel]

doug is a ghost

[crimson basin]

you can set a price

also you can probably remove auto build and put a max count

[orchid sorrel]

yes you can

[empty sigil]

Well, in the tag topic it says not rci.

[crimson basin]

you can also make it appear separately using the category attribute

[crimson basin]

which one?

max count?

[empty sigil]

And workers function it's only RCI

Let's see, I could search exactly for each of the limitations, I wrote it without searching

[orchid sorrel]

you can definitely add max count to rci buildings

unless it was changed recently, which I doubt

[crimson basin]

tell lobby to fix the documentation lol

[orchid sorrel]

recently being last few years lol

[crimson basin]

it does say that on the forum

[orchid sorrel]

yeah

that page is missing like 80% of all tags but sure

(I have no idea about the actual number of tags)

[crimson basin]

true

[empty sigil]

Well, I'll have to test it again, to see which tag can be used in RCI and which doesn't, then, because if the doc is outdated

[crimson basin]

if i cant do something i want to, i usually ask lobby and he pulls some stuff out of nowhere which has 0 documentation

[livid agate]

PCA should have an up-to-date representation on what attributes are definitely available to specific draft types

[empty sigil]

Right, PCA, I didn't even remember it, time to update myself then

[livid agate]

anything that is available to building drafts should be available to RCI drafts

[empty sigil]

Perfect then, the only thing would be the title and description, which in RCI for now the default it's only according to type building

But it's not that important either so great, I'm already doing my tests at RCI

[crimson basin]

You can see building title when building it in the top right corner

Otherwise i think it appears as draft (plugin id)

[crimson basin]

how come forum doesnt have everything documented though

[near flame]

i think it's illegal

you should remove it

[livid agate]

time consuming process
