[frigid tusk]

this is the Call of Duty

ok i'm out

[crimson basin]

long flight, it was like 5 hour flight and 3 hours at the airport but im back, thankfully, the other plugin mods handled stuff while i was away so there not t oo much

[upper gate]

Plugin name of palace and monument please

[slender briar]

No

[rain gate]

palace is private, monument is on the store in some deco pack

[upper gate]

Okay thanks

Couldn't find it anywhere.

If someone knows tell me

[rain gate]

I know it is, I tried to find it but I couldnt sorry.

[upper gate]

It's alright thank you for your time

[empty sigil]

Saint Peter's Square by APBR Team (Obelisk deco)

[weak kestrel]

What stadium is this !!😁

[frigid tusk]

custom

[dreamy hearth]

It's a masterpiece, but do desaturate it

[empty sigil]

@indigo elbow

[midnight obsidian]

the 7th member of the fachwerk family has arrived - a 3x3 set of white-cherry red buildings with a courtyard and a tower

[stoic echo]

looks hella suspicious

[midnight obsidian]

Yea the template is wrong too

[rose sleet]

Anybody knows an op waste disposal plugin?

[rain gate]

Theres recycling center by stephanie, i don't think it's "op" but i think itll most likely cover your needs.

[simple slate]

Priv

[simple slate]

Reminds me of the houses in the movie Tramp Castle

[magic pike]

A total of 12 buildings + a cathedral are planned.

[simple slate]

I love those houses, the detail of the roof gives it more value

[empty sigil]

Waste To Energy Plant by Anhkatori2 is pretty good too

[rose sleet]

How about the services? Like police health fire

[orchid scroll]

I could fit my town inside that thing

[blissful basalt]

[strange cloud]

WIP (Diagonal in game decals,yes,as decals).

[neat lake]

Rice!
Im underestimate with the amount of variant that i need, and its still more

[neat jacinth]

Water platforms?

[rain gate]

What's the difference between these and marqo's diagonal decals ?

[neat jacinth]

Looks amazing

[neat jacinth]

I dont see a wooden one though🤔

[neat jacinth]

Im blind👍

[strange cloud]

Lemme record a video to show it.

[strange cloud]

Loud warning. ⚠️

[rain gate]

ah i see like the ci decal

very nice

[strange cloud]

Literal inspiration of it.

[neat jacinth]

Wowzers

[strange cloud]

Next:
Invisible,Road,Rails,and Runways.

[neat jacinth]

I dont understand why you whuld want a invisible runway?

[rain gate]

If someone would like to make there own custom runway with decals but would also like to put runway-only decos on it

[strange cloud]

Somebody suggested it in #plugin-suggestions

[neat jacinth]

Oh

Makes sense

[strange cloud]

Invisible R.R.R (Roads,Rails,Runway)

[slate oyster]

Thats my suggestion!

[slate oyster]

Do it release yet?

[strange cloud]

Just wait in the store.

[slate oyster]

Don't forget the centerline marking!

[slate oyster]

Okay

Credits to Atcforyou

Forget the runway number

[strange cloud]

You can use the runway markings plugin by hadestia.

[slate oyster]

https://youtu.be/k_CrrAfEQHE?si=FYbUnBT8ToFfbWho you need to watch this to understand the centerline marking

[slate oyster]

I mean the center ones

[strange cloud]

This one is literally sitting in my watch later.

[slate oyster]

Not the marking

Centerline marking is important

[strange cloud]

Advanced road exist.

You can make centerline marking using it. Even changing the color.

[slate oyster]

The hadestia marking is for touchdown zone bruh and ITS big

You can take the runway centerline marking texture from hadestia

If not,can we place a road marking to the runway?

[neat jacinth]

Can I see ???

[strange cloud]

Taking break. I didn't even start yet.

[neat jacinth]

Oh lol

[echo moon]

seawall or canal

[uncut acorn]

Yes finally different seawalls

[urban grove]

Both. Will you make diagonal too?

[drifting marsh]

Does diagonal water exist?

[dusty hill]

No

[echo moon]

Maybe in the future after solving my plugin criticism isues, (bikelane rd, streetlight L/R support)

[dusty hill]

Does the Pixel Studio can automaticly do noise as paint.net

[midnight obsidian]

Did they add sines to theotown?

[trim blade]

No way we're getting curve tools in theo before GTA VI

This is very true

Also

I wish there was a high density and a low density version, but you can't have everything

[signal lagoon]

yes, but not shared. i use different methods.

[trim blade]

Oop

[crimson basin]

Kind of

Kinda goes only down though

And it only works with default game water and grass

[empty sigil]

It's easier to put them in manually, so you put them exactly how you would like them to be.

[midnight obsidian]

8/?

[echo moon]

Name plugin?

[crimson basin]

Theofalls

Lots of limitations but kinda works

Guess ill have to expand the plugin (and fix some bugs)

And while at it, probably make its own category?

[neat jacinth]

Warehouse?!

[strange cloud]

Yes

[dreamy hearth]

Guys how do u make road deco rotation aware?

[red lintel]

Those look so beautiful!

[urban grove]

Definitely using these in my old towns. Looks beautiful btw. Love your style

[dreamy hearth]

8/4

I like the cozy feel of those buildings

[fossil crystal]

Since its manila day

Im planning on making the manila city hall

@red lintel Help me a bit on this one pls🙏

[red lintel]

https://tenor.com/view/azumanga-azumanga-daioh-kagura-thumb-ok-gif-23365066

[fossil crystal]

👍

[dreamy hearth]

Eyyo this'll be interesting

[neat jacinth]

Amazing

[dreamy hearth]

Anyways guys I need help on this

[strange cloud]

RNG Colors

This had possible 9375 combinations.

[red lintel]

Loud warning!^^^

[orchid sorrel]

that's some questionable color choices

[crimson basin]

why do we need almost a 1000 colour combinations?

does it use random frame or lua?

[orchid sorrel]

probably color and animations

[crimson basin]

that sounds so unfun

i hope it uses random frame

[frigid tusk]

And if I want one single color, how do I do this?

[orchid sorrel]

why would it...

that would waste copious amounts of space

[crimson basin]

can animations use random frame

[orchid sorrel]

yes?

but how is that relevant

[strange cloud]

I use animations, don't worry.

[crimson basin]

cant you always use color and then random frame?

[orchid sorrel]

that's just color with extra steps?????

why would one use random frame if that's exactly what color does

[crimson basin]

unless youre using animations

[empty sigil]

It's an animation, so you can use rotation aware, just like always, 4 sides, count: 4, and that's it, right? Or what do you want to do exactly?

[orchid sorrel]

bunny you have 0 idea whatever you're talking about

[crimson basin]

maybe, thats why im asking you lol

kiki, can i see the code?

i want to see how you do it

[orchid sorrel]

I bet it's just animations with "colors" array

if it's not I'm never talking to him again

[strange cloud]

Kulche bet is correct, it's just colors array.

In game screenshot

Right time to make the 1x1 warehouse,and shed.

[crimson basin]

template has a category?

what does putting a template in a category do

[strange cloud]

So the buildings which use the template will use the category specified in the template.

[crimson basin]

interesting

oh wait

that makes sense

[neat jacinth]

Whats the plugin name for the warehouses?

[frigid tusk]

Bro

It's in making

[urban grove]

People PLEASE if you see something here. It's probably a work in progress plugins (not finished).

[neat jacinth]

Ik, I just want to know once it's finished

[rain gate]

I got a vacation in 2 days and I need to be able how to code my own road for a plugin that I am making, Idk where to start xd, I don't think I can do it easily on mobile

[weak kestrel]

This is from Denmark

[ripe jasper]

that was 3 years ago

it's already been released

[crimson basin]

There are tutorials on the forum, heres the one for roads: https://forum.theotown.com/viewtopic.php?f=41&t=2964

[rain gate]

Thanks

[weak kestrel]

Make 2×2 if possible ☺️

[strange cloud]

This @weak kestrel

[weak kestrel]

Ohh I guess these are 3×3

[rain gate]

those are 2x2

[strange cloud]

The warehouse now had at least 1400 variants (previous one was miscalculation).

[orchid sorrel]

combinatorics issue

I wish lobby implemented some kind of a way to pick the colors

[rain gate]

With this method, I can have just a few images of building fragments and make them into a several dozen amount of buildings?

[strange cloud]

Yep.

[weak kestrel]

This are matching with those ?!

[neat jacinth]

Is there a medeavel building plugin?

[rain gate]

seignur pack

[rain gate]

idk if its spelled exactly like that

one second

[crimson basin]

seigneur

[rain gate]

plenty more if you just search medieval

[crimson basin]

theres that one by sir jollyann

i never remember what its called

anciet civ?

[rain gate]

i wouldnt say thats medieval

[crimson basin]

not really, but its old

[rain gate]

well thats not really what he was asking for so its not really relevant

[signal lagoon]

||exploring too far||

[empty sigil]

Epic Colonial Age?

[crimson basin]

ye

[crimson basin]

cool!

[midnight obsidian]

rip mobile users

[frigid tusk]

At this point, Theotown will be more complete than Cities Skylines

[red lintel]

the absolute game changer

Keep up the good work ian!

❤️

[dusty hill]

ehh, i want someone to do for me some station buildings, but they would need have 4 rotations

[empty sigil]

#plugin-suggestions ? In any case "I want someone" vs "Could someone, please" can make a big difference. Btw u weren't making plugins? Or am I getting confused

[dusty hill]

i do plugins, but, i do mostly post PRL things, so im not very good at making post war things

[dusty hill]

ahh

[stoic palm]

Use the proper channel please and thanks

[dusty hill]

aw god

it will be either ignored

[stoic palm]

I don't really care

You use the same channel like everyone else lmao

Or you post it in a different server

[dusty hill]

@stoic palm #plugin-suggestions there is a scam

[glacial galleon]

Wow

[paper river]

Buildings

[trim blade]

Zamn

Very clean

[signal lagoon]

use a needle.

[near flame]

it would be nice if you make a road tool like this

[signal lagoon]

yeah, lets see. but we need to make a points to be L shaped first.

[static sandal]

Another modular thing

Guess what

[trim blade]

No way

[empty sigil]

Odd that you didn't use "colors" as before. Or is there a difference in the 4 frames that I didn't notice? But it looks interesting, old industrial modular style, although outside of the brick color the others still don't convince me 😅

[trim blade]

Modular factory parts

[orchid sorrel]

ci reference

[dreamy hearth]

cute buildings

[uncut acorn]

Thanks

[neat jacinth]

Is it a "firehouse" some apartment and a bank?

[uncut acorn]

just a fire station yeah

Some of them are services

[neat jacinth]

Nice

[static sandal]

Lmao

[narrow light]

Guys when i download, specifically rockfort's new plugins, i get java.io.EOFException

Help?

[strange cloud]

Forum or in game?

[urban grove]

Yo more modular stuff! This is awesome

[narrow light]

In game

[empty sigil]

Kiki needs to get excited about Lua and make his Indonesian Transport pack work like OpenTTD and there would be the perfect combo with the complex industry

[empty sigil]

It's fixed now, so try again.

[strange cloud]

Well it's possible that the server is down.

[static sandal]

I think looks decent

[empty sigil]

Looks good, u are going to make some frame with garage/entrance door?

[crimson basin]

@strange cloud btw, what changes were made to the diagonal thing

[static sandal]

lol, I forget that

I’ll make an animation to include it

[urban grove]

I think you should add more modular roof decos

[static sandal]

yep

[uncut sky]

Anyone have a army plugin?

[static sandal]

lmao

[crimson basin]

try searching soldiers on store

[crimson basin]

or military

[signal lagoon]

actually i sent some train system scripts into dump folder. ~~maybe i can continue it next time ~~

[empty sigil]

It would have a lot of potential, If you need a hand "we" (at least me) are here too 😅 As soon I get some free time of work I go back to Lua to finish the improvements of the dynamic clouds and I would like to do some functional testing with the Module Car

Although I was doing a "waving effect" in the water a few days ago, but it's more efficient with animation than with lua to be honest.

[signal lagoon]

yeah, maybe i need help for some frames and math to calculate fares and train durabilities. lol

maybe shader can be one more options to make a waving effect on the water.

like a tree shader

[empty sigil]

It isn't possible with shader, I tried it too, and it caused a cut in the frames for the movement, and I tried to assign a color below so that it wouldn't look ugly, but it didn't look the same, it was very noticeable

I think I have some video or capture there from when I tried it

If there was a way to apply postprocessing shaders it would be spectacular.

[signal lagoon]

actually i dont really know about shader, but maybe just making the gl_FragColor be more lighter/darker.

[near flame]

leaf has a military plugin

maybe you can check out

it looks like this

[ripe jasper]

tv girl

[neat jacinth]

Tank?

Is there a "statunary train" plugin

And a coal train

?

[empty sigil]

Statunary? U mean as deco? Trainyard Decorations by Pounkiller, and Train yard decorations by Wikipeder. In the Indonesian Transportation Pack by Yakka there are also some.

[urban grove]

I was about to say that 😅

[empty sigil]

You can still tell him about the coal train, I don't remember any 😅

[dusty hill]

i should try to do something post-war building, since i should start doing it

[static sandal]

Cry

[somber haven]

I'm trying to put this into plugin yet it didn't appeared

[static sandal]

Try to place it in the plugin folder and not in the sample folder

And decompress the .zip

[somber haven]

I just compresses

It say compresses

In plugin or managed plugin?

[static sandal]

In plugin

Managed plugin is for in game plugin store plugins*

[somber haven]

Oh thnx

[dusty hill]

hmm

[somber haven]

What does extract mean?

[empty sigil]

If you want to make it in the same style as the photo, make it a little more wider and higher, not everything necessarily has to be perfectly accurate

[crimson basin]

unzip the contents

[somber haven]

Oh

Thnx

[midnight obsidian]

9/whatever

another 3x3 - orange-roofed white and brown complex

[somber haven]

I suggest anyone making better bridge

Or more traditional housing

[empty sigil]

#plugin-suggestions

[somber haven]

Oops sorry wrong channel

[dusty hill]

now wider

[orchid sorrel]

why are you texturing your shape templates???

[trim blade]

He's silly

[dusty hill]

preview

[trim blade]

[dusty hill]

hmm

[neat jacinth]

No coal train😔

[empty sigil]

I'm pretty sure I made it bigger than it is, but this is pretty much the "style" of that building.

Isn't so complicated

[somber haven]

I thought it didn't work but it did

Thnx guys

[dusty hill]

ok

[empty sigil]

In any case the idea is, try to make the windows 3 pixels wide, so you can make the middle line at least, so u can keep the irl style (with only 2 it's very complicated to make it look similar).

It is not necessary to use the brick, you can use noise too.

And u can see that the "border" is very simple to make, and keep going, u can do it.

[blissful basalt]

If your talking about trains that roamed in 1900s TheMaxs railway Extension have some

[neat jacinth]

Im talking about trains powerd by coal

[blissful basalt]

Steam locomotive?

[neat jacinth]

Aka lokomotive

Yuh

[blissful basalt]

It have some locomotives

[neat jacinth]

Statonary once too?

[blissful basalt]

Huh?

[neat jacinth]

Like parken once

For decoration

[blissful basalt]

No it doesn't

[neat jacinth]

Damm

[tepid comet]

Quick question, what road is the arrow pointing at and what plug-in is it from? It looks like it could be good for planning out road layouts first before committing to it.

[rain gate]

Advanced roads

[strange cloud]

Advanced road.

[tepid comet]

Thanks guys.

[signal lagoon]

hmm, a bit long loading.

[warm shard]

That must be DAF XF but failed

[dreamy hearth]

That's cuz the perspective may be right for the 3D model, but the execution is quite off

[dusty hill]

hmm

[dreamy hearth]

You could shift some of the pixels up a bit

[red lintel]

Nice radio

[warm shard]

"fixed" I think

[orchid sorrel]

nope

please see ingame cars

and see how isometric projection works

[dreamy hearth]

first attempt on making road deco I'd say it worked

I should prolly revive my old road deco pack project and include it onto this

[warm shard]

I swear I'm not a "Master" I really can't fix this part of this,

[orchid sorrel]

well you don't have to be a "master" to understand how isometry works

[dreamy hearth]

you can actually

[warm shard]

Fixed have a nice day

[dreamy hearth]

yay after 2 years I decided to actually code the speed limit markers into the game lol

[dreamy hearth]

take these trucks from theLeaf as reference

[weak kestrel]

Pls add also some words also like stop, yield, and etc.

[dreamy hearth]

I'll see after I finishing everything else that's on my list for this pack

[warm shard]

Daym thanks

[weak kestrel]

What will you add in this pack other than speed limit

[dreamy hearth]

intersection markers, blue and red lines, 2 rumble strips, and some different colors of pedestrian crossings

focus is more on road markings

[static sandal]

Yay

[weak kestrel]

Yay I like different colours of crosswalk

[dreamy hearth]

I've alr done yellow, just gotta do red, blue, and white

and also one with a speed bump

I'll just release it in my server initially cuz this is part of a megapack I've been working on for years

[weak kestrel]

@dreamy hearth look

[dreamy hearth]

ooh okay those I might consider for a crossing pack

[weak kestrel]

I like the piano theme but could be hard

[dreamy hearth]

It's possible

but it'll take some time for me to figure out how

actually wait I have an idea for that

[weak kestrel]

In my city there's crosswalk with the theme of fingerprint

[dreamy hearth]

okay that one sounds very interesting

[weak kestrel]

Lemme check if I have a photo

[dreamy hearth]

okay I tried the piano and it looks a bit janky but idk

maybe if I do a gap of 1

[static sandal]

Me

[dreamy hearth]

attempt 2

[weak kestrel]

@dreamy hearth I don't have photo so I took screenshot.

[weak kestrel]

Yay looks cool

[dreamy hearth]

I'm impressed

[weak kestrel]

Can you try first pic pls with lights 😁

[dreamy hearth]

eyyo I legit dig the factories, looks like they could be used along with other plugins (CI, Leaf's factories, etc)

[dreamy hearth]

hmmm I could try

[weak kestrel]

Dude,this is the real zebra crossing 😁😁

[dreamy hearth]

omg props to the artists

I'd love to do those but maybe another time

as for the first pic I think I could try turning it into a decal for a future plugin

[weak kestrel]

@dreamy hearth I m suggest to make some driveway decal for rich people's house , ofcourse in future 😁

[dreamy hearth]

sure, I'll save it

[weak kestrel]

Can you please make some fence plugin with gates also I want this eagerly, for make rich negibouhrhoods. I have just lacke of that plugin

[dreamy hearth]

that is next in my agenda after the road decos

fences

but most of them are gonna be road pillars

[dreamy hearth]

but do send some references if you can

[weak kestrel]

Look I made that neighborhood but it's only need some gates

[dreamy hearth]

I could try to go into non-isometric territory if ever I feel like it yeah

[dreamy hearth]

ahh yes I love glowing lanes

[ripe jasper]

blahaj there's these blue arrows in jp intersections that i think you might like

just an idea

[dreamy hearth]

I'll make these

In a minute

[dusty hill]

hmm

[static sandal]

Omg, can’t wait

[urban grove]

You changed the name?

[static sandal]

yep

More writable

[urban grove]

That's alot of new stuff. Pretty excited to try it out

[weak kestrel]

Oh ma god , 😎 cool

[weak kestrel]

Will you add medina decals?!

[ember patio]

Someone, is this plugin was private? Or forum?

Please send me the link if this is from forum

[ripe jasper]

idkk i think it was deleted

he did send the frame / image of the bldg a few days ago

[ember patio]

😢

[orchid sorrel]

it's pending approval

[weak kestrel]

It's under development plugin pack

[crimson basin]

what are the removed ids?

did you change the ids?

[dreamy hearth]

it took longer than a minute but that's only cuz I had to go buy vegetables

whoops forgot to attach ss

[humble iron]

It's the cologne cathedral plugin

It's still in store right

[frigid tusk]

Apparently no

[humble iron]

Oh

[urban grove]

It used to, until kekman removed it.

[weak kestrel]

What happened with my ideas

[ripe jasper]

imo their scale could be like the dots on mewmews advanced road pack

like only 3 or 2 pixels big, still visible yet looks clean

[crimson basin]

In approval

[urban grove]

Pretty sure he will do your idea later. Idk but please don't force creators into making things

[weak kestrel]

No like I'm not forcing but I'm just curious that is he tried my suggestion 😁😁

[dreamy hearth]

in the researching phase

[dreamy hearth]

I have considered that and I ran into a lot of issues regarding the size. I'm made it in that size cuz it'll cover only a single lane as how it was designed

[static sandal]

The code was very complex, I tried to make it simpler.

[crimson basin]

but you changed the ids?

[static sandal]

I remove codes of bollards

Maybe is that

[midnight obsidian]

i can tell you one thing, changing the ids can get your plugin disapproved

[crimson basin]

^^

thats why im asking about it

because i see a lot of fences are removed

[static sandal]

Ye, is the bollards

[crimson basin]

its a game breaking change

[midnight obsidian]

not exactly game breaking

[static sandal]

Hmmm

[midnight obsidian]

if say you place an object with an id, and then change its id, the object will simply disappear

[crimson basin]

not really but they will dissapear from peoples cities

really inconvenient

[static sandal]

Okay, but maybe they’re just going. The complement generally kept all the other decals and decorations

[crimson basin]

you also removed some ground and decor

[static sandal]

Don’t update that part, I left it the same way because of what you just told me.

[crimson basin]

usually you can safe;y re id animations though

why are there so many plugins :(
i reviewd all but 3 last night

[empty sigil]

Ready to check out Lua plugins? I'm going to update it 😜😅

[crimson basin]

no, cant read lua, thats for ja

[midnight obsidian]

next day you'll see bunny

all the plugins are lua plugins

[static sandal]

everyone learning Lua

[midnight obsidian]

wait... it's all lua?

[rain gate]

always has been

[crimson basin]

i will rage quit 🥰

i did try to learn lua but not sure i can learn TT lua without practical application and someone telling me how to do them

the bluescreen thing helped understand a lil bit, i could see it imports stuff from json as a first thing

then it just defines a lot of stuff

and then i get lost

[red lintel]

something for those who suggest plugins

[orchid scroll]

@empty sigil I do not know

[empty sigil]

Uh?

[crimson basin]

@stoic palm can we please have this pinned in #plugin-suggestions 🥺

[livid agate]

[red lintel]

thank you!🥹

[stoic palm]

I feel like part 4 isn't needed in terms of tips

[crimson basin]

i feel like it is

[stoic palm]

So personally I'll leave that in JAs hands

[red lintel]

I doubted putting it in the tips but i added it anyway

[crimson basin]

too many people suggest insane skyscrapers

[stoic palm]

And it's there right to do so

[crimson basin]

no one wants to do plugins that big

sure

[stoic palm]

The channel is there for creator inspiration

Whom am I to say what they should be limited in making

[empty sigil]

Sure? 😅

[crimson basin]

okay evan

[stoic palm]

And if someone wanted to get in the the meme, I say let em lmao

That's what the forums are for anyways

[crimson basin]

would be nicer to see smaller stuff more frequently,

[empty sigil]

Let's not talk much about the forum, because if it were up to me I would purge a large part of the forum 😅 and put some subcategories in the important categories

[stoic palm]

There's a reason I don't use them myself lmao

[crimson basin]

its pretty much a dumpster fire

[rain gate]

real

[crimson basin]

i just use the forum for documentations and how to do stuff

[midnight obsidian]

11/something

[red lintel]

Those
Are
BEAUTIFUL!!!!

srry for the caps

[static sandal]

Yay, I recovered them

[weak kestrel]

I'm very happy 😁😄😌

[weak kestrel]

Now we had more good office complexes 💫

[weak kestrel]

Are you adding colours in this ?!

[static sandal]

It’s really a modular university, lol

But I know that they are going to use it even as a train station

[rain gate]

real lmfao

[weak kestrel]

Ohh I wil use as railway station like a multi floor shopping mall 😁

[weak kestrel]

If you want to allow as a railway station then if possible pls make roof rail deco so it's looks more realistic with railway station building.

[trim blade]

Very nice

[signal lagoon]

so far, only this for rci we can have since i too lazy for the math to calculate the building size larger than 1 🤧

another one.

[weak kestrel]

Pls can you make European architactured large mansions for Theo Town's rich negibouhrhood

[midnight obsidian]

probably not. also, please suggest (and not request) plugins in #plugin-suggestions...

[trim blade]

I believe in you

[midnight obsidian]

plus the idea is far too vague

[drifting marsh]

Do you remember the Mexican transportation pack? Can't it be recovered?

[static sandal]

Maybe

[neat jacinth]

Do you use a website/app to make plugins?

Or how do you make one?

[rain gate]

check the pins

[neat jacinth]

I cant find it

Or I'm just dumb

[rain gate]

look for this

[neat jacinth]

Yes but I can't find the right pin

[upper gate]

Does anyone how to get private plugins

[rain gate]

no

[neat jacinth]

Help me find the roght pin for how to make plugins🙏🙏

[rain gate]

there's tutorials on youtube, go watch some of those.

[neat jacinth]

Oh okay

[dusty hill]

hmm

[neat jacinth]

I liki

[dusty hill]

Hmm

[midnight obsidian]

That looks like a bit of a botched roof in the middle

Unless it is like that irl

[rain gate]

yeah i was about to say the roof looked off

[dusty hill]

i made the mid roof red to make it don't mix with that on 2 floor segments

[slender briar]

wrong angle

[midnight obsidian]

yep

[dusty hill]

aw god

[slender briar]

why

[dusty hill]

i freaking knew im not good at doing the post-war buildings

[slender briar]

its not about buildings its about angles

reffer to this

[dusty hill]

better if i continue tomorrow\

[midnight obsidian]

or find the middle point of the wall, choose how high you want the roof to reach, raise the middle point and use the line tool to draw the roof from the edges of the wall to the raised middle point

if what i'm saying makes sense

basically the line tool is your best friend

[midnight obsidian]

Bro's cooking. That's really good AO and shading. That I'm still even studying it.

[deep kestrel]

aight thanks man

[empty sigil]

It will be possible to make a "helper" panel like that but with everything in $cat_plugins00?

[urban grove]

Who let this guy cook? This man is fr cooking 🔥🔥🔥
Absolutely beautiful!

[lavish hinge]

i let him cook

[near flame]

what is this sir

i love your stuff

[lavish hornet]

why did it have to be with lua

[signal lagoon]

maybe possible, use Draft.isPlugin.

[signal lagoon]

just a shortcut if you want to build rci manually.

[dusty hill]

?

[orchid sorrel]

aren't the stories a little too tall?

the whole thing seems a bit off scale

also the roof is still not angled correctly

[signal lagoon]

hmm, looks weirdo. 🚮

[empty sigil]

It doesn't look bad, in the end what matters is that it works with null frames too (invisible roal), and what they do with advance road is up to each one.

[main compass]

How is this looking so far?

[neat lake]

Testing

Oh ma head

[umbral urchin]

minecraft

[frigid tusk]

Not really Theotwn textures but still fire

[neat lake]

Ya i still need to change alot to it

[empty sigil]

If you know how to use photoshop you can replace the grass with the land in game texture with a mask and it will look better, and much easier than doing it manually.

[midnight obsidian]

Rice fields?

[neat lake]

I think the texture is fine i just need to change the color
and also im on mobile so i don't have photoshop

[neat lake]

Ya

[crimson basin]

I am fixing the first bug (and adding a category as an update) if youve got any suggestions to be added, let me know

[empty sigil]

Got it, will you make more frames? In case I think about future frames, or just focus at the current ones. And btw, doing it with draw ground: false isn't it better to get the water? or is it not compatible? Not the fall part, but the water between.

[thin steppe]

why do we have fake water but not fake grass, I want to see a boat go swim on the green stuff

[empty sigil]

I was just saying it in case you wanted it to look the same as the rest of the ground, but forget it, from the phone it's better to adjust the brightness as you are doing it. Afterwards show us how it goes, btw is it linetool and frame alignment or manual everything?

[empty sigil]

I don't know what use a water with land texture would have. 😅

[near flame]

this would be a good plugin to make terrace farm

[crimson basin]

not reall, because then the edge of the tile will have a wall and yeah, i could add more frames

im probably going to add a diagonal ----- frame buuut that will only be connected in one direction too, unless it has only ground false? im not really sure how to do it, its hard getting stuff to work with the water

also, id have to keep the old frames as it is and make a new category and objects otherwise it will break old versions

[neat lake]

I need to do it manual because the line tools leave transparent selection

[neat lake]

Or should I make it yellow 🤔

[near flame]

you should make both green and yellow

[urban grove]

This is insane bro

[neat lake]

Thanks

[neat lake]

Its already almost 100 variant

[near flame]

ok

of course im not forcing you here

[neat lake]

Nah i kinda wat to have color variation too but its just so many

[strange cloud]

Want many color variations? It's simple,check dm.

[empty sigil]

Transparent selection? If by chance you have a capture of the "bug/issue" much better. With the frame alignment there should be no separation

In any case if it is manual because there isn't any other way, don't worry, as long as they are well identified there should be no problem other than the hours to put them jajaja in any case already with the Advanced road people are used to it

[neat lake]

Oh that line tools i thought something else
My brain currently not working properly lol

[midnight obsidian]

brain is not braining

[signal lagoon]

i'll keep it for lateeeeeeeeeeeeeeer

[empty sigil]

In a while that i have free up a few minutes of my work I'll give you a hand, it won't be perfect, but to give you a clearer base so you can stop suffering unnecessarily. 😅 So that you do not say that one is mean that motivates you to do them and it remains only in words.

[empty sigil]

You have to fix a few things, but it's not like I had a lot of free time. You can start with that anyway.

[dusty hill]

thx

i will have to divide it to 2 parts since it's 4x2

[empty sigil]

The magic of compositions, nothing that can't be solved.

[dusty hill]

ok

i'll try to make it 4 sided

[uncut acorn]

Banaue rice terraces is waving

[rain gate]

omg it looks just like the ones at Little India as an actual Singaporean

hope to see hdb / bto flats as a plugin

Hello, a question: how do I reduce the delay of the game, since it is not fluid?

[static sandal]

Useful

[dusty hill]

now, what color i should pick for walls since they are brick

[unique kindle]

Bricks are usually bright red/brown, so probably use either one of these or both

[slender briar]

WHAT IN GODS NAME

[thin steppe]

Do we have anything akin to American Interstates in the game? Furthermore, would there be diagonal variants available?

[orchid scroll]

Bro think he's normal

[unkempt pollen]

my phone: finally! an opponent of my level!, our battle is going to be legendary!

[unkempt pollen]

no, unfortunately no because theres already the advanced road pack

& if you want additions to mewmews plugin, youll need to know/learn how to download .zip files or, the addition is private

[rain gate]

That's not really what he asked, theres plenty on the store that could cater to his needs, or as you said he could just use advanced roads and/or erin's road additions to make his own.

[unkempt pollen]

well ya know... i just wanted to give the guy new choices

[carmine hemlock]

Korea new town villa pack

[narrow light]

i am curious; will this be pc exclusive?

[signal lagoon]

my pc exclusive for a while.

[slender fox]

what app you use?

#plugin-suggestions message oh god, Stop Posting About Skyscraper from this damn movie

[dusty hill]

aw dang it, i have to make walls in red brick

[orchid sorrel]

you really can't decide how to type that sentence

[slate oyster]

@strange cloud do the invisible runway completed?

[crimson basin]

yes

its pending approval

[midnight obsidian]

Do winter frames override the regular frames or do they simply overlay onto the regular frames

[orchid rapids]

@slender briar

[slender briar]

I have been summoned

A salut

[orchid rapids]

Hellooo

I have took some of your adivce

Now goover has more shadows

And less goofy legs

[crimson basin]

hi kek

ive been busy

[midnight obsidian]

If they override the frames, is there any way to make it so that the winter frames appear on top of the regular ones?

If i'm sending this message again then blame discord for not showing the first one

[crimson basin]

its been only sent once

[orchid sorrel]

I'm pretty sure they override

you'd just use an animation with "in winter" tag

[midnight obsidian]

"in winter" is boolean?

Probably

[livid agate]

correct

[dusty hill]

i guess we haven't any ZOO plugin

[ripe jasper]

zoo? As in animal place something?

we do have but it's very outdated and looks horrid

[urban grove]

There is a zoo plugin but the quality isn't great...

[main compass]

Wip

[slate oyster]

Can anyone recommend me an app to make plugin?

[orchid sorrel]

image editor or text editor

also what platform

[strange cloud]

[dusty hill]

what hex color you prefer for this brick

[orchid sorrel]

well it's your job to pick colors

just play around

and never pick from real life images

[crimson basin]

orange-red-brown

[orchid sorrel]

doesn't look like hex to me

[crimson basin]

Im not at my pc 😭

[orchid sorrel]

you're not a true digital artist unless you can conjure hex codes for specific colors in your head

[crimson basin]

#F556F4

#87481f

[crimson basin]

This hex is nice actually

[main compass]

Is this ok? Or is it looking wired?

[orchid sorrel]

what exactly are you talking about

[weak kestrel]

Looks great

[sleek thistle]

What is this?
Looks better

[signal lagoon]

just a looping trains.

[empty sigil]

OpenTTD in TT incoming

[orchid sorrel]

what's next, chain signals?

[signal lagoon]

i need a single track frames for it.

[crimson basin]

oh this is cool

[main compass]

The corner of the building

[orchid sorrel]

it's geometrically correct

[main compass]

Yes but it isn't looking wierd right?

[orchid sorrel]

depends what "weird" is

I'm not sure if I'm a huge fan of the design but the execution is fine

[main compass]

I see

Thanks

For your opinion

[orchid sorrel]

I'd make the glass a bit less saturated by the way

[main compass]

Like a bit darker?

[orchid sorrel]

less saturated

saturation and value are different things

[main compass]

I see

I'm very new to this

Still learning things

[orchid sorrel]

it looks pretty well so far

[main compass]

Thanks

[burnt bramble]

Thanks to The Leaf for the red decals, here's a quick update for the Advanced Decals Pack

[weak kestrel]

Looks Insane 😎

[weak kestrel]

Sorry, quick question will you add more varieties!❤️

[burnt bramble]

Yup

[weak kestrel]

Just a request,if possible can you add medina decals

[burnt bramble]

I'll try

[dusty hill]

why those on left has....

[humble iron]

You're just seeing things buddy

[weak kestrel]

What you mean ?!

[lavish hornet]

Advanced decals??

[burnt bramble]

yup, this to be exact

[frigid tusk]

is it possible to do it with your asphalt? cause it may be a way for me to do non-isometric buildings

[burnt bramble]

for now no

[frigid tusk]

or hold on

i can do it myself

[burnt bramble]

But I got a json template

[frigid tusk]

yeah

cause i got a gorgeous idea

[burnt bramble]

damnn

tell me which one

and I'll work on it today

[lofty widget]

What do you think?

[frigid tusk]

nah nah continue your things, i'll also fix some things

[burnt bramble]

are you talking about the duplicates?

oh nvm you weren't the one who reported it

[lofty widget]

Shadows are missing

[crimson basin]

for some reason, the grass looks odd

[lofty widget]

I'm not good at making grass

[crimson basin]

https://forum.theotown.com/viewtopic.php?f=108&t=5659 try that link and eyedrop in game frames for a colour

[signal lagoon]

hmm, 🚮

[dense garnet]

What do you think of my plugin?

[empty sigil]

I'm going to have to ask you for your trash folder 😅💯

[empty sigil]

It's pretty good, the shadow of the first billboard is at a bad angle, but overall it's pretty nice.

[signal lagoon]

🤧

[signal lagoon]

actually, the real game is not lagging, just a video effect because my ram is full when using luawrapper.

[main compass]

Done! Now waiting for approval 🙂

[ripe jasper]

reminds me alot of shibuya sky, specifically the roof

[unique kindle]

What is it supposed to be?

[burnt bramble]

Hey

maybe the next one 👀

[main compass]

Looks like a parking garage to me

[main compass]

Beautiful

[static sandal]

@crimson basin solution?

It will be a little tedious to fear that reassigning everything.

Maybe I’ll remove the original decals and only put it as part 2, leaving only the new

[burnt bramble]

damnn more decals???

they look beautiful btw

[dawn onyx]

Hello community, I speak Spanish, how can I create plugins?

[empty night]

Where

[rain gate]

[static sandal]

I’m here

[dawn onyx]

Thanks bro

[static sandal]

Que

[dawn onyx]

Good night. How to publish my plugin now I already have the design but with a background

[empty sigil]

Background?

[empty sigil]

You can ask anything in Spanish at #language-bar in case you find it easier than in English.

[near flame]

potato ahh pc

[near flame]

hey woah

this is so cool

[crimson basin]

If you need the old download file, I can send you, keep old ones without changing and implement the new ones

[weak kestrel]

@burnt bramble so beautiful 😍😍

[burnt bramble]

Couldn't find a way to do the rest of the decals

[weak kestrel]

@burnt bramble Last request this decals from la défense ,paris

[burnt bramble]

Oh god

No promises

[ripe jasper]

i think you can (kinda) make that (?)

[weak kestrel]

Will you make this in circular patterns ?!

[burnt bramble]

Yup

[ripe jasper]

just use a dull red decal as a base and use that one guys non isometric decal and done

[weak kestrel]

Let me try , Thanks for the idea ❤️

[weak kestrel]

Fountain included ?

[burnt bramble]

Idk tbh

Actually

[weak kestrel]

Not hard for you in my opinion

[weak kestrel]

I think you just need to make fountain's basin as a decal , there's plugin for fountains 😁

Likes 3-4 varieties size of basin

[burnt bramble]

I'll see, no promises though!

[ripe jasper]

there's loads of different interesting patterns here in the middle east

[weak kestrel]

But how to override different colours on eachother?? It's not possible

[ripe jasper]

you can't, if your talking about the non isometric decal plugin that is

[weak kestrel]

Yea

[weak kestrel]

That's why I say that, otherwise I can do that pattern in game

[ripe jasper]

its best to stick just to the base color if you can't make it as detailed irl

anyway gl meemew on the medina decal

[slate oyster]

On the way for my first plugin!

ITS gonna be runway numbers

[orchid sorrel]

shouldn't there be just 4

[slate oyster]

For rotation bro

[orchid sorrel]

or 16 if you want to provide rotations

then you're missing frames

unless that's only a part of it

[crimson basin]

Why does the thickness vary

[signal lagoon]

🚮

[orchid sorrel]

stop

[crimson basin]

Pretty cool

How does it work

[orchid sorrel]

I'm pretty sure you wouldn't understand anything if ian was to explain you how the code works lol

[signal lagoon]

use smart car to collect the block between signals. tldr: 300+ lines of code.

[orchid sorrel]

smart car module my beloved

[signal lagoon]

the signal has not code, but unfortunatelly, its don't work with random spawned vanilla trains.

[empty sigil]

It's not that vanilla matters much either. 😅

[fluid plover]

Any info about age of sail plug in?

[dreamy hearth]

Hmmm it's possible to save plugin space for that building

[dusty hill]

hmm

[orchid sorrel]

I really hope that red is temporary

[dusty hill]

i think walls are kinda too bright

[orchid sorrel]

wasn't the building supposed to be symmetrical?

because looking at the roof is certainly isn't

actually I have no idea what's happening on the roof

[dusty hill]

.

[orchid sorrel]

not exactly correct

you also messed it up in the process of adding colors

[static sandal]

Ok? Why

[orchid sorrel]

it'd appear that your account was broken into and it posted spam

[static sandal]

Lmao, appears same in three accounts

[orchid sorrel]

?

three accounts?

[urban grove]

Nice. Can you do a 4×4 one? (If you can)

[midnight obsidian]

i'll see about it

isn't 3x3 already enough? 😭

[static sandal]

Some old accounts

Well, what do I do to recover my account?

[urban grove]

Sorry just asking if you can do a 4×4 😅
Also all are these buildings from Strasbourg?

[orchid sorrel]

contact a board admin

[midnight obsidian]

these two are from strasbourg, others i'm not as sure and some are just half inspiration half made up

[uncut acorn]

Dang

What are you gonna do since you can’t post plugins

[midnight obsidian]

the red 3x3 one was from some small german town in baden wurttemberg i think

[urban grove]

Wth did you do?

[urban grove]

Ok

[static sandal]

idk

That’s why I came and consulted it here.

[midnight obsidian]

but that one is also half inspiration half made up

[uncut acorn]

What’s gonna happen to AndroxArev plugins in the store if it really meant that a ban was either automatically removed some of his plugins

[static sandal]

what

[midnight obsidian]

theste two come from this stock image, and looking at its file name yes, it's from strasbourg as well

[uncut acorn]

You get my point

Idk what will happen

If when it says you get banned permanently on the board, it either affects your plugin uploads and others or your topics

[midnight obsidian]

then the one to the left of them is also from some sort of german town

[orchid sorrel]

it does nothing to store plugins

[midnight obsidian]

alsfeld

basically, i see cool fachwerk, i make it

some of them are also from model toys

which are made after real life buildings too i think

then one building is also partially inspired from colmar

[static sandal]

Okay

[burnt bramble]

send them

I really don't know much about the middle east tbh, I would love to have more references

[ripe jasper]

@burnt bramble

here are some Arab / middle Eastern patterns you'll see here

3 from Qatar

3 from UAE

2 from K.S.A / Kingdom of Saudiya

1 from Egypt

[weak kestrel]

@burnt bramble

[ripe jasper]

yeaa also that

[ripe jasper]

you'll see these kind of decals when your around a fancy place like The Pearl, Royal Household or somewhere with a new development

you can also see them in highways

or a public area in downtown

[burnt bramble]

Got it 👍👍

[urban grove]

Uh Mew can you really make those? Those look kinda hard to make

[weak kestrel]

The royal houses are most good example and mosque also

[burnt bramble]

I'll see what I can and can't do tbh,

[ripe jasper]

hopefully he can make some since arab motifs are constant repetition

[burnt bramble]

As I said, no promises 🙂🙂

[weak kestrel]

@burnt bramble the most hard one is qasr al watan from Abu Dhabi

[dusty hill]

so how should improve walls

[orchid sorrel]

by picking a more bricky color

something that isn't perfectly red

[empty sigil]

Well, I had told you that it had some errors, don't expect much from something I did in 15 minutes, in any case you have some mistakes when coloring, so try to fix it, Remember that you can make the texture with noise, but not in those colors...

[orchid sorrel]

I'd also increase the contrast

yeah the roof is pretty crooked

[magic pike]

+3 homes

[rain gate]

💀

[pastel summit]

hey lsc, penanglion here
i lost the original files to the rockefeller plugins...

it's more of a lost project now

[dusty hill]

when there will be any tutorial for stairs

[weak kestrel]

Pls make some roof deco for on rail

[somber haven]

Hey what plugin that isn't available in theotown plugin store?

[ripe jasper]

thats called a forum plugin

From where did you take inspiration for these buildings? I love them

[magic pike]

This buildings from Rome

[indigo inlet]

Thats why I loved them then, i need more italian plugins and i do hope you release it soon

[magic pike]

Maybe

[neat jacinth]

Hmm

[neat jacinth]

Hmmm

[blissful basalt]

I think androx is either cooked or fine with the suggestions

[neat jacinth]

Who?

What?

Where?

When?

[blissful basalt]

Huh

[neat jacinth]

I gave you four questions

[blissful basalt]

AndroxArev

[neat jacinth]

Whos that

[blissful basalt]

That decal and some building plugin creator

[neat jacinth]

Um

[blissful basalt]

Meh

[neat jacinth]

Anyways.. Like my buidling????

No awnser 😦

[pastel summit]

but im still recovering old data
who knows
maybe i can find them lmao

[unique kindle]

I'm using Pixel Studio to make plugins, but I'm not sure which template is used to make plugins

Which template is appropriate for plugin creation

[empty sigil]

Simple template?

[trim blade]

Even Arturo doesn't know

[crimson basin]

i mean i think its simple

advanced is for moving animation frames

so like drawing a video

[dusty hill]

i can't pick a good color for the red brick

[orchid sorrel]

just play around until it looks good

imagine a brick and try to pick something similar

[crimson basin]

pinkish orangish redish brown

[orchid scroll]

Pick it from the photo

And a little adjusting

[neat lake]

Close from the picture
Try more on grey-ish area if you want brick color

[dreamy hearth]

@covert root #plugin-suggestions message

How, what and why?

[neat jacinth]

I think it was a "joke" idk

Couse why invisible decals

[dreamy hearth]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[neat jacinth]

How?

[dreamy hearth]

Idk, I mean you could create an invisible building and give it influence that's the closest thing to that suggestion

Wait that could work

[neat jacinth]

Well he said decal

No?

[dreamy hearth]

Wait I remember smth similar in the plugin store

I think it was part of a pack for water idk

[uncut acorn]

Hmm ok

[urban grove]

2much water?

[dreamy hearth]

Yeah I think that's what it's called

[covert root]

That part invisible so could put advanced road on top of water

Or idk

[empty sigil]

I think there is already a water as decal, unless the author removed it

[covert root]

Wait I try that I have it water decal

[empty sigil]

In any case, I think it wouldn't work for you, yours is more of a Terrain as fake water, or something like that, where you can place things on it.

I still don't understand what use you can give that can't be done with the current ones, since if you are going to put something on top, it will not be visible in itself 😅

[neat jacinth]

Thats ground not decal or am I'm missing smth

[covert root]

Idk

[covert root]

Aah I didn't know the difference

[covert root]

Maybe it's useless thing then

[neat jacinth]

One is for looks and one is for well land/ground

[covert root]

Yeaah

[fluid plover]

Is there any information about age of sail plug in?

[azure tide]

I putted the la defense pack into the game but i cant find it

[surreal oasis]

That, i believe, is the Managed Plugins folder

[azure tide]

Yes

[surreal oasis]

You're NOT supposed to put your plugins there

[azure tide]

Oh

Then where?

[surreal oasis]

Those are dedicated for Plugin store content

There is a Plugins folder

[weak kestrel]

You Just check the commerical tt section or ttt section

[weak kestrel]

Add that in plugins folder not managed plugins 😀

[azure tide]

Okay

Do i put it in the sample or?

I still cant find it

[surreal oasis]

Just there.

You're in the folder already. Just hit Import

[azure tide]

Ok

Alr its done
