much different from all the other stuff you've made

[crimson basin]

yeah the building had more details

not sure if i got the size right

but yea

[neat cedar]

I've seen this and its a beatiful plugin

Already downloaded it

[crimson basin]

still could use some more contrast tbh but hmm

[neat cedar]

I think finish the whole building first so u can analyze better

[slender briar]

uu the good ole one

a very nicely drawn building from a nice city hehe

[neat cedar]

O kekman wsp u were making a plugin how is it going?

[slender briar]

slow but steady

[crimson basin]

you sure have an obsession with cologn lol

[slender briar]

going for a cigarette walk

[slender briar]

of course

[neat cedar]

Im ready do download it the texturing is just insane

[crimson basin]

kek, curious, how many boxes of cigarettes do you run through a day

[neat cedar]

Oo question of the day

[slender briar]

i have the city shield on my arm as a tattoo, a fc cologne scarf above my head rn, 3 cologne signs and a pic of cologne in my bathroom bro

[neat cedar]

Bro isnt kekman, bro is cologne 😭

Final boss of cologne

[slender briar]

if alone? 5-7 cigarettes a day, if im drinking or talking a lot, can get up to 10 an hour or a whole pack of 22 in 4-5 hours

[slender briar]

JAMANN; KÖLLEEEEEE

Changed the name as ya want btw

[crimson basin]

i guess ill finish it tmmr

[slender briar]

one every 2 hours aprox

[midnight obsidian]

not a big fan of the window color

[neat cedar]

That french balcony seems like a painting on the building ngl

Could be wider

But overall its pretty good except the window colors

For me*

[midnight obsidian]

Yea i think we can all unanimously agree that the window color is a bit ehhh

[neat cedar]

extraterrestrial and excess blue abnormal object

Best definition for that

[midnight obsidian]

It's a decent wall color

[neat cedar]

i was talking about the windows 😭

[midnight obsidian]

I'm talking about the window color being a wall color

[neat cedar]

Nah that is wilder 😭💀

[terse ledge]

I'm out of ideas for the roof

Also can i draw the shadow out of the template?

[neat cedar]

Gotta expand the canvas but same for the both side

Go settings and then go edit

U will be able to expand the canvas

[terse ledge]

I know how to expand but it will be visible in tt ?

The shadow*

[neat cedar]

i never tried but prolly yes

Just go try ig

if doesnt work u gotta do things on json ig and i dunno about it. U may ask kulche

[terse ledge]

No nomore kulche

[slender briar]

yes kulche

[neat cedar]

Well he may be harsh but in the end of the day he manages to fix the problem

He is always right

[slender briar]

almost

almost always

[terse ledge]

I guess you kek can help

Canyou pls?

[neat cedar]

Whatever it is; the last day of the world, is the day Kulche acts peaceful and kind.

[slender briar]

with what

[terse ledge]

.

[terse ledge]

Can i draw a shadow out of the template?

[stoic palm]

Not really

Anything part of the asset has to be within the template

[terse ledge]

Thx

[neat cedar]

Oh wait wait wait i just realized. U need rtx and a pc ( ofc pc for rtx) if you want shadows on ur buildings and that doesnt concern the plugin

[slender briar]

no.

[terse ledge]

Thx

[stoic palm]

Pretty sure TheoTown doesn't support rtx lmao

[neat cedar]

I dunno i saw some screenshots that has taken with rtx open

[stoic palm]

Having something open doesn't mean it has an effect

[frigid tusk]

https://tenor.com/view/mundo-feliz-onetreehsll-world-if-gif-14071235670792471304

[terse ledge]

As i said before what is the use of 4k black pxl

[neat cedar]

May be editted im pretty sure editting like that requires high skills

[stoic palm]

That's literally just not how it works xD

[neat cedar]

Nah i mean rtx open and there were shadows everwhere and it was way more realistic

[frigid tusk]

Idk how to do glass textures bit tonight idc
Good night

[stoic palm]

I can assure you in my nearly 6 years here there has been no RTX support for this game

[terse ledge]

I play mc with no shaders at all

Is it better with shaders?

[stoic palm]

And if you think there has been then you probably believe gullable is written on the ceiling

[neat cedar]

Nvm lemme keep working on my goofy british road decos

i will post here

[slender briar]

grey but good

[slender briar]

yes

[terse ledge]

I guess i will try one

My pc runs it normally on65~80 fps

Should be ok with the shaders

[neat cedar]

Bikelanes for side of the roads.

Small arrows coming right up

Non isometric variations soon

Im thinking about trying to put this on store. If doesnt work, i will publish it in forum

Yall feel free to use this one. It's already basic

[neat cedar]

The arrows couldnt be that small so i will do sidewalks for people who use advanced road like me

non isometric ones may come tomorrow

[keen helm]

upcoming meiji japanese inspired lamp designs

With the biggest design being a statue of a dragon holding the sun in his mouth

That's 9 different lamp designs you guys will be able to use

Including one design that can be used as a road decoration and using the fence tool

I'll work on the texturing tomorrow

but I am pretty satisfied of the current look

With that, I'll just have to work on the redlight district inspired lamps but it'll be a small set

[neat cedar]

The black ones are incredibly nice

[keen helm]

They will all be black, dont worry

[neat cedar]

i will take them for my city

[keen helm]

it's just that I wanted the shape to be good for the others 🙂

I have also finished and added all of those to the game

[neat cedar]

Oh wait i didnt see these yet i love that work ❤️

[keen helm]

And this is the final set with only 4 lamps

(2 of those being the same variant but rotation aware)

I might add 2 or 3 more designs

Of course, when released, I'll also include those 12 advertising columns

I should have finished the plugin tomorrow or the day after, so the update will be posted anytime then

[neat cedar]

I dont see kulche when u post. That's the evidence of the quality of ur plugins XD

[keen helm]

Kulche might also very well be sleeping or have something else to do 🙂 or perhaps over time, I did get my letter of marque

Anyway, my job on this 1st update of the prop expansion is almost done and I expect you guys to be enjoyed by the new ways you will be able to improve your cities soon enough 🙂

[stoic palm]

Looking lovely as always!

[keen helm]

I think they should be posted in 2 or 3 days, so depending on plugin review timeframes, in a few days or weeks at most

For the next update, I got a few of my plans (asian lanterns + modern lamps) but I'll take any suggestions for props that you want to see, I do also have a few ideas for that:

• outdoor sport equipment
• horses
• mailbox
• phone booths
• street food stands

And a few others that I wont spoil 😉

[neat cedar]

Phone booths but like british ones included? Dayum bro that gotta be crazy

[keen helm]

That's more or less what I have in mind

I also want to make props that are more fitting for villages and small towns, or even for farms and individual houses, but idk what I could add so I am also looking for ideas in that case

[neat cedar]

That is going to be crazy. 🔥

[crimson basin]

The windows are kinda unfinished

[orchid sorrel]

those are very pleasant, hope they will cast light on the ground within the tile as well

[uncut acorn]

Fantastic

[obsidian needle]

e h h h h

i dont think i can do this

[midnight obsidian]

i told you

[obsidian needle]

mlem

ill keep goin

[midnight obsidian]

weird how you're doing it without a baseplate

[terse ledge]

Did i do well decorating the roof?

[zealous glen]

Noise is too much, just changed the opaque 5-10%

[terse ledge]

That will definitely take some time to fix but thx for your feedback!

[zealous glen]

Use the scatter feature on pencils

Also use select to an area that you want to have noise

[terse ledge]

The problem is the draw is one layer

I have to remove it first

😭

[terse ledge]

Like this

[zealous glen]

Better

[obsidian needle]

baseplate hidden for now

[midnight obsidian]

okay

[boreal charm]

what were u tryna make again?

[obsidian needle]

base too big but

temporary shape

[zealous glen]

I hope someone is able to make that, profession

[obsidian needle]

make what

[crimson basin]

its not even straight 😭

thats one gay bridge

[obsidian needle]

its designed to bend towards Thủ Đức City

the tower itself isnt even in the centre

[crimson basin]

good luck to whoever has to figure out that shape

its gonna be hell

[obsidian needle]

im making that :p

tbf seems ease

[crimson basin]

nah, tahts what ya think

[obsidian needle]

i mean im doing it rn

[obsidian needle]

3d bending objects are 1 of many easy parts when it comes to normal 3d-visual art so

[obsidian needle]

figured pretty quick

[obsidian needle]

nice

thats good work

[terse ledge]

All thank to@crimson basin ,@zealous glen&@slender briar
And also special thank to
The master @orchid sorrel

For helping me and for the feedbacks

[ruby owl]

Anyone wanna help me code

for "Theotown Siege Game mode"

plugin

[crimson basin]

game mode?

you mean lua?

[ruby owl]

Lua is easy

[crimson basin]

if its just json, pca could help

[crimson basin]

speak for yourself, have fun lol

theres like 3 people in the whole community that can do lua

[ruby owl]

i wanna add like a

multiplayer thingy

idk how

people can make towns and capture regions

each square u capture had an upkeep

so u have to earn a lot of money

[crimson basin]

sounds complicated, maybe you should ask in #plugin-lua-and-fun so you dont get drowned by the people who dont lua

[main compass]

Thanks

[obsidian needle]

mlem

almost done wit thiz

[orchid sorrel]

what am I looking at

[orchid sorrel]

haha you're definitely adding multiplayer using lua....

good joke

[slender briar]

wazzup

[neat cedar]

H

Hai*

[midnight obsidian]

i feel like making something but i have no clue what to make

[urban grove]

Very interesting shape

[neat cedar]

You are me rn

[midnight obsidian]

it's like i know what i don't want but i don't know what i want

[neat cedar]

i feel the same

[slender briar]

cologne buildings hehehehe

[orchid sorrel]

jimmy is here

[slender briar]

wassup jim

[midnight obsidian]

jimmy mrbeast

wtf is this

[neat cedar]

This is.... a

[urban grove]

It's a building

[midnight obsidian]

we are testing kekman's koln knowledge

[slender briar]

most normal german city hall

[neat cedar]

This is a city hall?

[midnight obsidian]

this one looks neat

might consider some modern pack

[neat cedar]

The building is nice but its not for that place

[slender briar]

nah but it looks like one, german city halls are fugly

[midnight obsidian]

i don't think theotown has many modern lowrises, yes?

[neat cedar]

Everybody gangsta until i show my city's

[slender briar]

nah

[slender briar]

showe

[neat cedar]

Actually its district

[midnight obsidian]

okay woah

and you say that brutalism isn't unique

i do like how one of the biggest debates in theotown is whether brutalism looks good

[slender briar]

it aint, brutalism is just weird at times but never unique

[slender briar]

it mostly doesnt.

[neat cedar]

If someone says that this is a city hall and not a modern art museum, go hell fr

[slender briar]

bruh whats thatttt

[neat cedar]

They built this and destructed the old one 💀

bruh they literally worked for that 😭

[midnight obsidian]

actually now that i think of turkiye

[slender briar]

might look cool in a picture but as soon as youre irl near it you see the blank concrete and pee stains, brutalism is dirty, soulless and just horrible

[dusty hill]

man, i love brutalism

[neat cedar]

Bro fr wanted cyber punk from the architecter 😭

[dusty hill]

but we haven't much of those in Theo Town

[midnight obsidian]

theres one faculty or something of istanbul universitesi-cerrahpasa which i quite like how it looks

[neat cedar]

Thanks God we dont

[slender briar]

whats your favourite architecture style? brutalism fans ``dirt and empty concrete please, with extra prison aftertastes and a bit of ww2 sprinkled on`

[midnight obsidian]

but i cant for the love of god remember where it is

[neat cedar]

universities arent bad in ma homeland

But u gotta see my city

[orchid sorrel]

your whole hatred for brutalism revolves around "dirty concrete"

[slender briar]

what else is there to brutalism kulche

enlighten me

[orchid sorrel]

no idea, I don't study architecture

[neat cedar]

I swear this was the best photo i could find

[orchid sorrel]

but I bet you'd just like it after giving it another clean color

[midnight obsidian]

i swear to god i cant find where that university is

the specific faculty***

[neat cedar]

No style but i would say miami 😭

[midnight obsidian]

uh mehmet how much istanbul do you know

[neat cedar]

My mother is from istanbul and i've been in istanbul before

But not much

[midnight obsidian]

dang it

[neat cedar]

Just lemme search where cerrahpaşa faculty is

[slender briar]

it can be good in isolated examples, but most of it? pretentious concrete shapes, post ww2 architecture focused on building cheap and fast, brutalism is only good in its shock value and its ability to stick out of every single landscape like a blood stain on a wedding dress

[crimson basin]

purple

[midnight obsidian]

there we go

i found it

[orchid sorrel]

shrill yourself

[crimson basin]

die :)s

[orchid sorrel]

it's good sometimes

but the "eastern europe post war cube of concrete" style can die

[neat cedar]

Fatih/İstanbul

its at historical city centre

[slender briar]

modern brutalism is mostly good cuz it incorporates wood a lot, love it

[midnight obsidian]

no i'm looking for a different one

[slender briar]

yes thank you kulche

[neat cedar]

?

[midnight obsidian]

i found it already

but unfortunately i cant seem to find many good angles

[neat cedar]

This is the university or the faculty?

[midnight obsidian]

faculty

[neat cedar]

Faculties may be further from the university but it counts as the part

[midnight obsidian]

around "Institute of Forensic Sciences, Istanbul University-Cerrahpasa"

[weak kestrel]

Anyone wants to see indian university architecture

[neat cedar]

Me

[neat cedar]

Ima show my city's university and a faculty

Wait a bit

[midnight obsidian]

i'll keep this in mind, idk whether i'll make that university

[slender briar]

yall have nothing on the bonn university

[midnight obsidian]

rudolfplatz??? wtf is this

[neat cedar]

I couldnt find the faculties i wanted to show but this is the university

[midnight obsidian]

perhaps i should do the bauhaus school of art

[midnight obsidian]

kek would love this :)

[weak kestrel]

Cool tho

[midnight obsidian]

hmmm

[weak kestrel]

This building is cool I wish kekman will make this

[dusty hill]

i done it

here are referenced photos

[weak kestrel]

@midnight obsidian hey how to make a JSON for a pack

[midnight obsidian]

hm?

you just specify each building draft separately

[weak kestrel]

I want code my friend wants to make a pack

[orchid sorrel]

figure it out

you add more drafts

it's that simple

[weak kestrel]

@crimson basin hey

[midnight obsidian]

it's not rocket science

[orchid sorrel]

he put in effort 💀

[midnight obsidian]

unbelievable 😔

[crimson basin]

lets see people try to figure out what attribute 1 and 2 are

[frigid tusk]

AyayayumYamYam

[weak kestrel]

What's that pls explain that to @zealous glen

[weak kestrel]

Gorgeous buildings, colorful version is more better

[crimson basin]

each { } signifies an object so in our case, a building

[slender briar]

show refference

[crimson basin]

you know what just use pcs

Ptag pca

[agile forum]

Plugin creator app (PCA) is a website to create plugins for the game using a UI interface.

It can be accessed at https://pca.svetikas.lt/

[crimson basin]

it can create jsons for you

[slender briar]

NOOOOOO

[weak kestrel]

I'll send it to my friend 👍🏻 thnks and sorry for bother

[slender briar]

god damn the bauhaus architektur

[midnight obsidian]

i knew you'd love this :)

[crimson basin]

im just busy rn

[orchid sorrel]

maybe you should do something that isn't an ugly train station

[weak kestrel]

This building is so easy for kekman

[midnight obsidian]

vote now on your phones!!

[midnight obsidian]

no need to reply to my message a million times

[weak kestrel]

Pls do something different large thing

[dusty hill]

wait

i'll change canditates

[obsidian needle]

a low budget form of this

[orchid sorrel]

thought it was supposed to be symmetrical

your version certainly is not

[obsidian needle]

ill fix

[slender briar]

where is it found`?

[midnight obsidian]

good ol koln

oval office koln i think?

[slender briar]

Aha!

Will do

[slender briar]

Looks like köln süd

[midnight obsidian]

[slender briar]

😡

[dusty hill]

Ok, so What i should do now from these

[midnight obsidian]

@orchid sorrel bydgoszcz mentioned

[orchid sorrel]

cringe 🤮

[dusty hill]

yea, bydgoszcz sucks

[midnight obsidian]

moment of silence for those living in bydgoszcz

[slender briar]

Found it

as expected its in south köln

the nickname kölnmann is there for a reason lmao

bernhardstraße 123

[midnight obsidian]

mind going there and snapping some irl pics? lol

[slender briar]

a few mins from there is a medieval themed restaurant where the personal there talk in medieval terms, a cola is called a devils sewer water

[slender briar]

can do tomorrow, today its a bit late for that

[midnight obsidian]

nah you dont need to

[slender briar]

ik but i want to go to cologne again this week

i just need to take the bus to andernach, then the RB to cologne South and then the U Bahn or S bahn

1 hour 50 and im there man, small trip

TheotownCon in Cologne when????

[midnight obsidian]

honestly somewhere in poland or east germany would probably the best area to hold a theotowncon

it'd be the central point for the european creators, no?

[slender briar]

i mean yeah kinda, but cologne would be cologne hehe, but on the realistic side a theocon in like Erfurt or Leipzig would work

[dusty hill]

can you just choose any of those

[slender briar]

3

[frigid tusk]

1
2
3
And 4

[midnight obsidian]

a good start is half the work

now for the funky part

oh it's a lot funkier than i thought

i see how it works

[slender briar]

hehehe have fun

ask me if u need help

[midnight obsidian]

oh yeah don't worry i got it figured out

[midnight obsidian]

everything's going swimmingly

with proper shadows this should look even better

[neat cedar]

Damn bro ur fast

Ur on mobile?

[midnight obsidian]

no

[neat cedar]

Oh

Still fast ngl

Also that would be a really nice corner building for my city. Im waiting to see the results 🔥

[midnight obsidian]

having lots of familiarity with paint.net really helps

[terse ledge]

Ideas?

[orchid sorrel]

?

[terse ledge]

I try to go to the next level

[obsidian needle]

same building but 3 more stories with sandstone yellow colour

ig

[terse ledge]

Make the whole building yellow or the new part only?

[obsidian needle]

maybe the whole building a yellow tone

maybe make it a little dirt brown

[dusty hill]

ehh

it seems not much people choosen

[midnight obsidian]

alright

@slender briar take a peek at this

[neat cedar]

Making this at one day is impressive ig

That is fire 🔥

[crimson basin]

Wowws

[slender briar]

hoooooot

[midnight obsidian]

while we're at it

[crimson basin]

No way

[midnight obsidian]

rare sight of me actually doing night animations

[crimson basin]

Yeah

[midnight obsidian]

alright. the arthron is now awaiting approval!

[neat cedar]

Working on an office building

[neat cedar]

Some changes but the shape is done

[crimson basin]

i cannot believe youd submit that after i downloaded everything

[slender briar]

makes a cologne building
doesnt mention me in the description
R u serious? time for paying assassins

[midnight obsidian]

uh oh

are you happy now

[slender briar]

YES

all that is cologne shall be mine HAHA!😈

[crimson basin]

i will scream, why do alll tcps plugins have to crash

(dont test my patience by uploading plugins without testing)

[slender briar]

uups

noted

[crimson basin]

its not even just you

its just frustrating when your game crashes like 5 times before you can test plugins

[signal lagoon]

lol, just make another temp plugin dir for test the plugins, so it will load faster.

[midnight obsidian]

@crimson basin i will name a bunny in stardew valley after you if you approve my plugin

bribing always works

to any aspiring plugin creators, try bribing the plugin moderators

your plugins will be 100% approved

[slender briar]

is that right

@orchid sorrel ill name a city in my minecraft world after you if you approve my night animation colonius

[orchid sorrel]

what if i disapprove it

[crimson basin]

i was gonna approve it anyway lmao

[midnight obsidian]

bribe the local authority

[crimson basin]

and done!

[midnight obsidian]

rare moment

[crimson basin]

now to feature some of them

[slender briar]

i mean u did cuz of the night anim being one png

but cmon sir help a poor man out

[orchid sorrel]

I don't remember disapproving any of your plugins recently

[crimson basin]

featured 3 plugins

these lovely ones

[frigid tusk]

2nd time being featured ✌️

Yipee

[slender briar]

was i ever featured`?

cant remember

[crimson basin]

i think so!

[slender briar]

ya know what

about time i finished this

good lord i was wondering why everything looked so weird

my display settings were ducked

the right side of the skyscraper looked yellow like a lemon😭

[midnight obsidian]

oooh thats definitely gonna require some animations

[slender briar]

uh

nah

this is kekman baby we dont do animations

but ill have to or else kulche will deny my plugin again

[neat cedar]

I dunno if im sure with this shape

[slender briar]

big af but still, deutschland mein herz

[neat cedar]

I will write a logo name on that grey part but yall decide it.

[midnight obsidian]

i might as well look for some more stuff from koeln

[slender briar]

Köln

or Kölle

or Colonia Claudia Ara Agrippinensium

colonia for short

[midnight obsidian]

look

[covert root]

Meant to be like that

[midnight obsidian]

i'm too lazy to write all those letters to make cologne

but i can't be bothered to get that silly little umlaut letter

[slender briar]

of course

[midnight obsidian]

so i'm just subsituting it for oe

[slender briar]

ö

ÖÖÖÖÖ

no german keyboard huh

[midnight obsidian]

it's like writing ss instead of the eszett

[slender briar]

ß

hehehe

i cän dü dis öll däy

[midnight obsidian]

anyways you know of some cool modern lowrises in kÖln

emphasis on the Ö

[slender briar]

lowrise

hmm

[midnight obsidian]

yeah kind of like the arthron

[slender briar]

look around rheinauhafen

lots of pretty modern lowrise there

[midnight obsidian]

and of course google maps displays street names in russian

ugh

[slender briar]

or look at deutz

the right side of the rhine

its a more modern part of köln so lots of nice low and midrises there

just not these, theyre reserved

will be part of cologne pack

[midnight obsidian]

depending if you want to do those oval offices i could give them a shot

but idk

[slender briar]

you know whatt i take it back no deutz for you half of it i already have planned for my pack

[slender briar]

well the straight big offices are planned and the arena too

but the curved office right of the arena hell naw, im not trying to torture myself

[midnight obsidian]

talking about these

[slender briar]

ah you can go ahead, aint my style 100%

[midnight obsidian]

well judging by what you said about the offices behind the arena i doubt you'd like to torture yourself with this

yea i have doubts too whether thats in my expertise

i'll consider them but i have no promise whether i'll make them

but they do look interesting

[slender briar]

i mean i find everything doable man ,but its the question if its worth the time or headache

most of it is just patience work

and i dont have patience

and i mean this is a question of patience and mental concentration

[midnight obsidian]

i don't think making curved stuff is too terrible

but when theres too much curves n stuff

yea uh

no thanks

i hate the idea of trying to do that one goofy orange thing we made fun of earlier

[slender briar]

orange thing?

[midnight obsidian]

this goofy ahh

[slender briar]

ew

nah not worth any time in the world to draw

who even comes up with these ideas

[midnight obsidian]

i'd rather do that brutalist af church

[slender briar]

its probably as little efficient on the inside as on the outsidee

[slender briar]

yeah at least the rooms are square, in the thing above you have 0.5 m2 rooms that are tthere cuz they planned that thing to hell

wait is that infront of the saturn in köln??

oh hell naw i walked past it irl

ngl looks nicer irl

[midnight obsidian]

what if

[slender briar]

i was drunk af at 3 am on carneval in köln a street away from that buildingg lmao

[midnight obsidian]

hochschule fur musik und tanz

whatever that thing is

it doesnt look nice

[slender briar]

oh yeah just googled it, i was a street away from that too

but ugly af

[midnight obsidian]

apparently this was a thing in koln before

[slender briar]

ew

what the hell

[midnight obsidian]

thank god it was destroyed in the incident

[slender briar]

second weerld wer?

[midnight obsidian]

yes

[slender briar]

thank god the thing was ugly

ey tobb

[midnight obsidian]

hm?

[slender briar]

köln kalk city hall?

[midnight obsidian]

wtf is that

[slender briar]

doesnt look that bad

i mean modern to death but its alright

[midnight obsidian]

it's like good and bad both at the same time

[slender briar]

could be worse

[slender briar]

good shape poor wall execution

[midnight obsidian]

i was thinking at that point to maybe just try those offices

[slender briar]

which

the round ones?

[midnight obsidian]

yes

[slender briar]

the small thriller ones or the big horror show one?

[slender briar]

thems right?

[midnight obsidian]

yes

[slender briar]

ah its a nice idea but please dont undersaturate the colors

[midnight obsidian]

maybe theyre small thriller ones but it'll be a big horror show for me

[slender briar]

ah dont worry its not as bad as it looks

[midnight obsidian]

oh i'm learning to get a grasp on good contrast

don't worry

[slender briar]

curved buildings always look horror but i mean you have 1x3 or 1x4 tall windows in a repeating pattern with little to no exception

[midnight obsidian]

you cant get good contrast with dull colors

i guess the hardest part will be getting the shape right

i'm not as much worried about the shading

[slender briar]

imagine this but higher scale

im getting tired maaan, have to be down the street at 8 for work

but ill probs work for like 3 hours cuz all clients are in my city tomorrow

[midnight obsidian]

yeah i'm a bit tired too

after getting the arthron done i think imma call it a day

[slender briar]

ill call it a day now ngl, tired as hell, gonna smoke my good night cigarette and then sleep

dragging a shelf up the stairs is tiring af

[neat cedar]

is that design good?

[slender briar]

building yes, base no

the base is too twisted and stuff, i used to do that too

stick to simple forms for the base and avoid having a base that gets too far from the main body

[midnight obsidian]

building balance lessons

[neat cedar]

ima delete that part that goes like a nose at the left side

[midnight obsidian]

is this based off of a real building?

[neat cedar]

Nah

I think about the shape and then just draw it

[neat cedar]

is this any bettah?

[slender briar]

yes

much better

very good

good night peeps

[neat cedar]

Gute nacht

[zealous glen]

My building is so small compared to others

Ohh, you're sleeping, I just woke up up

[slender briar]

Nacht jung

One last ciggy before sleep

[frigid tusk]

tatoo reveal

oh crap

i submitted the wrong file

advanced pedestrian crossing seems uncomplete

[neat cedar]

😭

How did bro do that mistake 💀

But i think we should say that it's bunny's fault

[frigid tusk]

nah it's mine

plugin is temporaly deleted

[neat cedar]

Trying random shapes

For windows

This is better

[frigid tusk]

no way i'm stupid

what

[neat cedar]

Did someone sent this?

[frigid tusk]

from 2018

[neat cedar]

Lil homie is waiting millions by betting a dollar 😭

[neat cedar]

Oh

But still wouldnt get approved

Bud didnt even remove the template 💀

i think im going good

its defo better

[zealous glen]

Why no one added a gate on the fences

[neat cedar]

am i cooking with that design?

[zealous glen]

Yeah

I added a fence,

3×3 is too small for this kind of building

[neat cedar]

noice

im not sure if that window color is fine

[zealous glen]

I made opaques on my window? Should I just make it a plain color?

@neat cedar what's the size of that, by pixels

[neat cedar]

A 1x1 tile is 16 pixels wide per side so by pixels its 64x64

lets start texturing now

[zealous glen]

The height is higher than the width

I lighted some dark areas , because it used to be a white building

It doesn't look like cobble stone now haha

[rain gate]

The same 👍

But if you want to make a skyscraper 🏙️ for example 2W 2H it doesn’t matter if the skyscraper texture is a lot more higher

[zealous glen]

Before and after

@rain gate how's my refined version

[rain gate]

A lotttt better 👍

Nice keep improving

[zealous glen]

Cool opacities on the dark windows

[dusty hill]

ehh

i'll think later abt next building to do

[neat cedar]

Only the roof left

[zealous glen]

I put light blue with opacity 7% on roofs, does this contribute to the overall graphic? Do BUNNY will like this?

[neat cedar]

That is what im talkin about 🔥

İma swith these with my booths

But wait

its gigantic tho

[covert root]

There you go😁

[neat cedar]

Nvm its still fire

its done

[covert root]

Little big yes but looks nice when like this than smaller

[neat cedar]

is this animated

?

[covert root]

Unfortunately not I don't know how to do it

[neat cedar]

The flag is just perfect and realistic i dont really mind if its animated just askin

[covert root]

Okay😁thank you

[obsidian needle]

how did you force it into portrait mode

[urban grove]

Since it's a zip you can check inside whether or not there's something suspicious inside (virus, malware, etc).

[prime grove]

It's safe

[glacial galleon]

That's why they disapprove of accessories 🙄

I'm getting tired of doing this thing

He was waiting for a month

[obsidian needle]

whats the red line

[crimson basin]

Well i was busy

[glacial galleon]

There is no problem with that thing.

[crimson basin]

If you resubmit today, i could review it after school

[glacial galleon]

It was just a specification.

[crimson basin]

I do think your grass could be less green

I mean less bright

[glacial galleon]

The thing is that the real one that is nearby is very green that's why I did it like this 😔

[crimson basin]

Okay just resubmit in that case

[urban grove]

Just upload it to the forum. If you're tired of the mods not approving your plugins

[crimson basin]

No this is okay

People are allowed to ask for justification

Ill be able yo check in 4 ish hours

[glacial galleon]

It's not that I got tired of uploading them, but when I see disapproval I get discouraged

[glacial galleon]

I already did it, thanks for the attention bunny

[thick mural]

Why did your mod get approved so quickly?

.I once uploaded a plugin and waited over a month for it to be approved.

[zealous glen]

Bro, I just made it

[zealous glen]

1×1

[weak kestrel]

@zealous glen check dm

[zealous glen]

@weak kestrel me dm you?

[weak kestrel]

Yes I tried to DM you but you don't allowed to message

[zealous glen]

Okay, I fixed it, I'm just new to this discord app, and I liked the environment

[weak kestrel]

Yeah I can understand

[weak kestrel]

Can you just change the colour of pool

[zealous glen]

Our servers are different, so we can't message

I'll add you

It failed

[zealous glen]

Light blue and cyan

[weak kestrel]

Yeah

[obsidian needle]

nice one

testing

[obsidian needle]

youll keep it private?

[zealous glen]

Yes, until I find my best versions, I'm just new to theotown, I started last week hahaha

[obsidian needle]

i see

ngl releasing to public or not, its up to you
im just here to admire it

[zealous glen]

That's inspiring. I'm looking forward

[livid thorn]

What is this road plugin name?

[weak kestrel]

Orignal photo ??

[urban grove]

Looks like advanced road. I could be wrong tho

[low loom]

hi, how's it going?

[livid thorn]

Thx

[midnight obsidian]

When i uploaded the plugin another mod was going through them

I also sometimes get to wait for plugins to be uploaded for like a week at most?

Let's just say i got lucky

[zealous glen]

Nobita from anime

[orchid sorrel]

that's some really large scale

[zealous glen]

3by3 but I didn't expect it to be this big, but Nobitas house 2by2, it didn't cover all of the spaces

Cute

[orchid sorrel]

but still terribly oversized

[zealous glen]

Here's the comparison

2by2 buildings are so small

It's not worth it hahaha

[orchid sorrel]

yup that really is humongous

[zealous glen]

@orchid sorrel is this worthy building?

[orchid sorrel]

what is "worthy"

[zealous glen]

I mean worth to be uploaded

[orchid sorrel]

no

it's... alright

but not enough plugin store

[zealous glen]

How many samples of 3×3 should I make?

[orchid sorrel]

preferably 0, do something 1x1 or 2x2

[zealous glen]

3 samples

[orchid sorrel]

gray palm?

[midnight obsidian]

that's rather oversized i'd say

[covert root]

No

[orchid sorrel]

what's up with people doing oversized stuff

"no" that's like 7 stories

[covert root]

Its not that oversized

[midnight obsidian]

comparing to other oversized trees

[covert root]

Yes

[zealous glen]

Default trees are very small

[orchid sorrel]

lol

default trees are properly scaled

the graphics are fine but the scale is not

[crimson basin]

heres a secret, plugin mods dont approve plugins every day. Theres no set day when plugins are approved, it all depends on the moderators free time and if they feel like it.I cant speak for the other moderators, but usually when i do approvals, i do all the plugins on the store at the same time so theres no pending plugins. It just so happened that rtobby uploaded his just as I was reviewing the plugins.

[crimson basin]

ooh thats pretty!

[rain gate]

Just amazing 👍

[covert root]

Thanks guys

[uncut acorn]

Finally the first 2024 theotown plugin bridge to be out very soon

[obsidian needle]

nice

[near flame]

woah this is beautiful

how did you make it

did you resize a tree image

[crimson basin]

thats such an odd colour

[kindred tide]

Maybe tone it down slightly?

I like it otherwise

[terse ledge]

Ideas for other project?
Lvl up

[covert root]

Yes took a screenshot of palm tree in pixelsquid and put it to pixly and resized the image and it pixelates it automatically and little bit changed it and put it to theotown

[terse ledge]

I'm not making a "super plugin" i just have fun and learn new ways every project
I want to develop step by step i'm not planning to make them on the store so
Pls bunny just dont raise your expectations about me

[crimson basin]

its okay lol

sure

[near flame]

wow

I never knew you could do it that good

have you tried this method for buildings @covert root

[covert root]

For one building but I don't know how to center it to the template myself

[near flame]

oh I see

I think it would speed up plugin progress if this could work on buildings

[midnight obsidian]

yea it would also speed up plugin approval times by giving us more to disapprove

[slender briar]

gooood day fellas

[slender briar]

i have way more lol

[frigid tusk]

https://tenor.com/view/cool-guy-wink-sexy-tattoos-gif-12915958

[crimson basin]

me: looks away from the store for 5 minutes

zaaron: uploads 3 plugins

[terse ledge]

Even it doesn't look like it

I'm very bad

[gusty ocean]

How to create a plugin in the simple way

[crimson basin]

Ptag creation

[agile forum]

Step 1: Download a baseplate of your choice It is recommended to keep it small if you are just starting.
Step 2: Download a pixel drawing app. It is recommended that you get one with layers and transparency options. You can find a list of suggested options here
Step 3: Here are some tutorials that show how to make a house. One by Theo and one by Kulche
Here's a tutorial by rtobby that provides tips on improving the plugin quality
You may find more tutorials in the getting started page and on the forum
And even more tips pinned in plugin discussion
Step 4: Last step is to create a json. You can create one by using PCA or use this tutorial here to make one. To make one manually, you can use any text app which allows you to save files as a .json
Feel free to ask for help or suggestions on the forum or on the server

Bonus step: Once done, you can upload your plugin on the store which once approved can be downloaded in-game by anyone or post it on the forum showcase or both! Remember that store plugins must oblige to the store rules

[midnight obsidian]

who is rtobby

[deft canyon]

I don't know

[gusty ocean]

ok thank you, I will try to learn

[verbal topaz]

Are there any good midwestern packs?

[gusty ocean]

Try

[strange cloud]

Crop thy image.

[gusty ocean]

ok thanks, i got it

[thick mural]

I used three buildings I made in my town.

[thick mural]

It includes the activity center by the beach, the old town hall in front of the pool, and the cathedral hidden in the classic residence.

[neat cedar]

im thinking about making a plugin named " Advanced Bike Lane" but im not sure. If i'll make it i will also add non isometric variations.

[weak kestrel]

Bike lane usually coloured in cyan or turquoise colour

[dreamy hearth]

@main compass we got twin buildings lol

[frigid tusk]

Will there be green?

[neat cedar]

Since its advanced, ima look for different bike lane colors around the world

Yuh ig

There definitely be red, blue and green

Also normal asphalt ones for british roads

[frigid tusk]

Looks like it's cropped from Google Earth

[crimson basin]

youre almost there

scroll a little up

[covert root]

It's from pixelsquid but does it matter

[covert root]

Who?

[rich birch]

Oh my gosh
It looks so beautiful

[urban grove]

Why does the other one look so sad lol

[crimson basin]

xina

[covert root]

Ok

[urban grove]

No way we got advanced bike lanes!!!

[frigid tusk]

So you basically mean you haven't drown all of this?

[covert root]

Yeah? Why would I have skills for that

It shouldn't matter

It looks good in my opinion

[frigid tusk]

It almost destroys the principle of making plugins

[covert root]

It doesn't bother me at least

[frigid tusk]

You do what you want duh

But at least don't take all the credits

[covert root]

Ok I can say it's pixelsquid website

Credits to that maybe I guess

[neat cedar]

That is epic

Serves store

[covert root]

Yes and for free no need to pay 140diamond

[neat cedar]

I got an exam but im planning to finish it in this week maybe

[urban grove]

Good luck with your exam

[neat cedar]

Oh i can give some road markings for that one to you

But its like beta

It got one direction only for now

But u may want to try

[orchid sorrel]

(it doesn't look good)

but well if you want to use it

[neat cedar]

The texturing is better than the in game one for me but i think its pretty small

[urban grove]

The bike lanes?

[neat cedar]

Nah the markings and grey part

[frigid tusk]

Good luck
I passed my exams so you can have them too

[neat cedar]

Lol

[urban grove]

I wouldn't say it's better tho (this is my own opinion)

[frigid tusk]

I think I'll do a small fences update

[neat cedar]

Nice

[frigid tusk]

To make more complete circles

[neat cedar]

I will send the marking and grey part's plugin if you really want. The blue part is from another plugin btw

[neat cedar]

Like a circle in 2x2 area?

[frigid tusk]

Nope

[covert root]

Of course it doesn't look good for you. Like what does look good for you

[frigid tusk]

You ll see

[urban grove]

So we got advanced roads, advanced bike lanes, advanced fences, advanced decals, advanced elevated roads, advanced rails, advanced pedestrian crossing. What's next?

At this point we already got TheoTown 2

[orchid sorrel]

lol

[neat cedar]

Advanced theotown ( sigma)

[frigid tusk]

Planned to do Advanced Train and Farms Decals

And Advanced Street lights

[neat cedar]

Or advanced whoop my peach by mommy bc im on pc making plugins too much 😭

[frigid tusk]

And maybe try advanced Trucks with fern's vehicles

Last Advanced will definitely Advanced Houses

[neat cedar]

We need advanced cars fr

[urban grove]

Advanced houses? How would that work

[frigid tusk]

Oh great for when?

[orchid sorrel]

something that is actual art is a solid first step, instead of a hastily cropped image that doesn't fit the game's artstyle

[brave raven]

👆

[frigid tusk]

Idk I thought of it with illusion using fences and decals so it's more near the road, or road deco, or fence

[neat cedar]

Maybe now, maybe tomorrow. But im sure it comes before i finish the class 💀

[orchid sorrel]

I'm not sure what to think of people who just crop photos and expect it to work..

[urban grove]

Damn uh you better start studying or else...

[neat cedar]

Nah its ez

Three times finishing the year with best mark

School aint hard

[covert root]

K

[neat cedar]

Nvm dual u want the plugin for the markings? @urban grove

U can be the first trying it except me

So i can get ideas

[urban grove]

Sure, DM?

[neat cedar]

Kk

[weak kestrel]

Maybe advanced European row houses not russian !

[frigid tusk]

What

[weak kestrel]

Non isometric row houses like old areas in European City's

[frigid tusk]

Idk

[neat cedar]

We really need advanced european buildings pack

Plovdiv's pack is only usable with his decal pack

[weak kestrel]

@frigid tusk idk, but Like how row buildings made through roundish street

[crimson basin]

@orchid sorrel

cute tree :>

[orchid sorrel]

how many colors did you put into that

[crimson basin]

a few

i made it in green and then like

colour changed it

[orchid sorrel]

it looks like a web image downscaled in 3 seconds

[neat cedar]

The shadow is too smooth and the size of shadow doesnt really match the size of tree but its really nice 👍

[main compass]

Oh looks like I fell short haha

[terse ledge]

Hola seniors

I just came from Duolingo

[midnight obsidian]

Gosh, use like 6 colors max

It's not too bad but you definitely need to learn making trees

[slender briar]

wassup

[midnight obsidian]

Sup kek

Okay i think i can give a shot at describing bunny's tree

It looks like some hair stuck in slime

Never have i ever seen a tree so smooth in my life

[slender briar]

got a surprising invitation to go to the pool with a buddy, bro had a whole box of beer with him, ended up drinking 3 beers and uhhhh im a bit WaAaAaAvy

[midnight obsidian]

Ooh nows the time for drunk plugin creation?

[slender briar]

nah looks like a tree alright but purple is hard to draw in a tree loking way

[slender briar]

naah its time for sleep

[midnight obsidian]

Dang

[slender briar]

have to wake up at 5 tomorrow

[midnight obsidian]

Well i was cycling with my friends today

Had a great time as well

[slender briar]

i dragged 2 full bags of groceries home and then another round dragging a mirror home, my back is DEAD

[slender briar]

niceee

[midnight obsidian]

oh come on, you didnt get to carry bags with your parents at the store?

[slender briar]

nah by myself

i had sacks of potatoes and toilet paper and meat and everything

[midnight obsidian]

while you were a child

thats what i forgot to mention

[slender briar]

hell naw i didnt have parents bro, my mom and dad divorced when i was 8 and then i lived with my grandma, while my mom was in belgium for work 11 months a year and my dad was somewhere in england working

and my grandma never bought a lot of stuff cuz the supermarket was like 30 meters away from us

[midnight obsidian]

oughhh

that's rough

[slender briar]

it is what it is

[midnight obsidian]

yeah

[slender briar]

et es wie et es, et kütt wie et kütt

[midnight obsidian]

well the store is also rather close to home so when i need something i go there, its like a minute walk

but sometimes i do need to go to the supermarket which is much further

around 20 minutes by car? so it's rather often if i'm with parents that i'll have to carry some heavy groceries

or well, with my mom i should say

but let's not delve into that, this is plugin discussion

[slender briar]

pff you got a car?

write in the citadel general

[gloomy mesa]

I don't know how to draw anymore

[midnight obsidian]

what am i looking at

[gloomy mesa]

Balconies on the left

[gloomy mesa]

This is a residential complex from Russia

[midnight obsidian]

interesting

[neat cedar]

Dat near your house?
