[charred skiff]

it is frankfurt airport

[sharp kettle]

Unfortunately, it just tells you wther you can get achivement or not, if you got a whole lot of plugin goodluck finding the op plugin bc it doesnt tell you which one lol

[charred skiff]

should i start this part?

[willow aurora]

For 1 plugin

[charred skiff]

and?

[surreal oasis]

That is conducted unofficially

[willow aurora]

I laughed

Yes

[sharp kettle]

dafq

[charred skiff]

i dont get it

[surreal oasis]

Plugin monetization is a thing????

[charred skiff]

yea? leaf sells his plugins too

[surreal oasis]

That's exactly what I was saying

[willow aurora]

Crazy people

[surreal oasis]

Last I checked it isn't actually paid

[charred skiff]

i mean plugin is an art after all

[charred skiff]

there are premium plugins that he sells

[surreal oasis]

There is?

[neat cedar]

Yea

[charred skiff]

of course lol

[surreal oasis]

I thought the paid part was no ads and early access

[neat cedar]

There are comission plugins

[charred skiff]

yea

[neat cedar]

he makes plugins just for you if you pay a dedicated price

[charred skiff]

what is a problem in selling plugins lol?

[surreal oasis]

Not much, as long as the said creator is well known

Otherwise, risk getting scammed

[willow aurora]

10 $ 1 plugin

[sharp kettle]

bit mad innit?

[charred skiff]

ok

[neat cedar]

10 bucks is uh

A bit overpriced

[charred skiff]

fr like 10 bucks is a lot

[neat cedar]

(depends on the size)

but aint bad

[charred skiff]

even jeffri sells for 4 or 3$

btw i can sell my fraport for 100$

[willow aurora]

, what

[charred skiff]

?

[willow aurora]

What fraport

[neat cedar]

Bro 😭🙏

[charred skiff]

dont call me "bro" 😭

and yes i can sell it

but i will not

cause i dont need money

and no one will buy it for shuch a price

[charred skiff]

frankfurt airport

[willow aurora]

I want see it

[charred skiff]

ok

then go see it

[neat cedar]

I just wanted to define my confusion, I didn't call you "bro" lol

[charred skiff]

ok

[near flame]

that plugin only costs $1

[willow aurora]

K in your dreams

[charred skiff]

wha...?

[frigid tusk]

Finish what you started before

[odd tapir]

Yes it’s a business 💰

If you pay for it no matter what the people say 😊

[frigid tusk]

Imagine paying for plugins you won't use

[near flame]

of course

that's why only the people who use the plugins buy it

[eager oriole]

Nice

[eager oriole]

Now add some people

[neat cedar]

Leaf does not sell plugins here

he makes private plugins for some special members

this is apart from comission plugins

[near flame]

he does sell those premium plugins for $1

he makes it free for some people

like me

[surreal oasis]

planned for final final revision

[sharp kettle]

News helicopter (that ive neer seen ingame)

[odd tapir]

Happy birthday TheoTown 🎂

[orchid sorrel]

looks... slummy

[surreal oasis]

Damn that's fire

[charred skiff]

I need a help from bokoblo, but as always he is not replying

[orchid sorrel]

I see you found some nice palette online lol

[charred skiff]

Yeee

[vast kayak]

New plugin

[charred skiff]

what is that?

[charred skiff]

are these green thingies windows?

[vast kayak]

High school

[vast kayak]

Yes, not yet completed.

[charred skiff]

ok

[orchid sorrel]

a 2x2 high school?

[charred skiff]

xd

[orchid sorrel]

for what, 50 students?

[vast kayak]

Yes

Well, the windows are right?

[charred skiff]

small

[charred skiff]

btw this is out of the baseplate

[charred skiff]

?

[vast kayak]

I think I'll finish it if I apply the shadow.

[charred skiff]

windows are smalllll 😭

[vast kayak]

I like small.🫤

[charred skiff]

ok

[vast kayak]

Okay, now.

[orchid sorrel]

I'm gonna be honest

it looks crude

the geometry's off, the whole design is unrealistic, the colors are very mid, there are objects sticking out of the template

[vast kayak]

Is it that good?

[charred skiff]

ig

[orchid sorrel]

those are some tiny floors

[vast kayak]

My pack is almost ready and only needs a health center and police station.

[charred skiff]

ok

why some windows are small

while others are big

[vast kayak]

They are not windows.

[charred skiff]

whats that then?

[orchid sorrel]

you should really put more effort into your plugins

because that's just bad

[vast kayak]

Turquoise tiles

[charred skiff]

why are they the same color as windows?

[vast kayak]

Turquoise 😑

[charred skiff]

??

[orchid sorrel]

why do the tiles have depth and the windows do not

[charred skiff]

i will just assume that those are windows

lol

[vast kayak]

Don't worry.

[eager oriole]

I think you have to practice colors :)

[charred skiff]

what are those yellow thingies?

[vast kayak]

Urine🥴🔨

[charred skiff]

uhhh

wtf

[vast kayak]

This color is for deprived areas

[vast kayak]

I'm kidding.

[charred skiff]

ik

[orchid sorrel]

I'm convinced you're no older than 11

[charred skiff]

how to convert isometric length to diagonal?

[orchid sorrel]

preferably using circles

[charred skiff]

like in pins?

[orchid sorrel]

probably

[charred skiff]

should i use a circle as big as the thingie i want to convert?

[orchid sorrel]

A circle is a shape consisting of all points in a plane that are at a given distance from a given point

you should be able to figure out the application yourself

[charred skiff]

should a circle be the same size as this?

or i can use a smaller circle

[orchid sorrel]

I have no idea what are you talking about

if you want to fix your hexagons I've already given you the guide

[charred skiff]

should the circle be as big as the thingie?

[charred skiff]

nooo

i need to convert isometirc to diagonal

[orchid sorrel]

that looks like the opposite

but it should work

[charred skiff]

?

[orchid sorrel]

you're converting diagonal to isometric

in laymans terms

[charred skiff]

i want to convert isometric length of something to diagonal

[orchid sorrel]

it doesn't matter what angle the line is

it just has to be either a radius or a diameter

[charred skiff]

look, this is an isometric length of the thing i want to convert to diagonal, how can i convert 275 in isometric length to diagonal length?

[orchid sorrel]

you draw it

using the guide you pointed out yourself

[charred skiff]

isometric one?

[orchid sorrel]

"one" as in?

[charred skiff]

uhhhhhh

wait

[charred skiff]

i have to draw isometric variant of the thing to convert it to diagonal?

[orchid sorrel]

I eyeballed the isometric angle so don't go around with a protractor on that

[charred skiff]

actual lenght is diagonal length?

[orchid sorrel]

you're throwing random terms that have no meaning at all

'actual length' would be (your length in meters * 0.6)

[charred skiff]

yeah and how to convert it to diagonal

[orchid sorrel]

by using the circle..

also, no idea what exactly 'diagonal' is here

[charred skiff]

but how???

[charred skiff]

1 - isometric
2- diagonal

[orchid sorrel]

are you asking about the practical drawing part or the maths part where you use actual values

[charred skiff]

i am asking how to convert 275 (isometric length) to diagonal length

[orchid sorrel]

you'd have to figure out the formula yourself considering that we're using an eccentric ellipse here

[charred skiff]

what is a formula for it then?

[orchid sorrel]

reread my message again..

[charred skiff]

ok

but how do other creators convert isometric to diagonal???? 😭

[orchid sorrel]

they draw it

when you use real world measurements you get the x-axis aligned pixel length

[charred skiff]

draw what?

[orchid sorrel]

then you just use a circle

[charred skiff]

but how do they convert it using a circle

[orchid sorrel]

gal you have the guide

you move your radius along the circle until it's isometric

[orchid sorrel]

1. get real world line length x meters,
2. draw a x-axis aligned line of 0.6x pixels length,
3. draw a 2:1 w:h ellipse using said line as the radius,
4. mix and match your angles, any radius will be the same length

[sharp kettle]

the refrence image experience

[static pollen]

Formula to convert isometric to diagonal doesnt exist, there are no such coefficient because it always change according to length.
Too I already said once proportionnality would work to avoid making a circle for each length you want to '' convert ''

[orchid sorrel]

asked chatgpt to generate me a formula to convert isometric length r to x-axis aligned length R, says that R = (0.5sqrt10)r

[charred skiff]

hmm

[charred skiff]

radius is the irl length*0.6?

[orchid sorrel]

R = 0.6(real length)

[midnight obsidian]

@orchid sorrel i have no brain power to figure this out, what should i do to get a 90 degree angle for the green line (like i have for the red and blue lines

or is it just pure guessing

[sharp kettle]

math and drawing experience

[orchid sorrel]

that's actually a funky question

[charred skiff]

like this then?

[near flame]

I hate math

[orchid sorrel]

then don't get into plugins that use more complicated shapes than rectangles lol

[charred skiff]

is this correct?

[orchid sorrel]

if chatgpt is correct and 275 pixels is your length, then it would be

[charred skiff]

hmm okay

[orchid sorrel]

yeah luckily you don't need math for that

[sharp kettle]

guess so

[charred skiff]

chat gpt is not correct

red line is 279 pixels btw

if i make it 485

it will be too big

i think

idk

chat gpt is stupid

[midnight obsidian]

grok it

[charred skiff]

?

[wanton raptor]

Huh (glory to the lpc)

[sharp kettle]

.. ?

[fossil plank]

shoo

[twin fjord]

is this it?

[fossil plank]

Back to lpc

[static pollen]

It's always 4 pixels wide

[twin fjord]

noted

[orchid sorrel]

why would it be 4? not denying it, just where's your proof

[static pollen]

polydiagonal decals plugin

[charred skiff]

maybe this is correct?

[orchid sorrel]

lmao

proof by plugin

[static pollen]

eh there are no gaps

[midnight obsidian]

i mean

it's a question not of gaps but angles

[orchid sorrel]

that's clearly incorrect, the semi major axis is the longest radius of an ellipse (the use of radius is probably wrong since ellipses don't get radii but you get the idea)

[charred skiff]

ok imma go to bed

[charred skiff]

i will try to get the accurate formula tomorrow

[static pollen]

If the plugin had gaps it would mean this isnt correct

And i reproduced it

[orchid sorrel]

that's not exactly perfect but seems close enought to 4

[static pollen]

With blue line 1 pixel taller idk why

[midnight obsidian]

2 pixels, in fact

nevermind

[static pollen]

No

Anyway isn't there a better way than having to draw lines on X tiles ?

[midnight obsidian]

i wish there was

[static pollen]

Anyway i fixed it. Someone (me ig) should make as many non-isometric lines as possible, maybe up to 10 tiles long, and it could be pinned

[orchid sorrel]

proof by desmos

which is slightly different than the previous formula provided by chatgpt, feel free to analyse yourself

I'm not responsible for errors as analytic geometry is the worst branch of maths to ever exist

[static pollen]

I'll just use proportionnality

[orchid sorrel]

that's what proportionality is....

the final value is the coefficient

which, incredibly surprisingly is equal to the value of sqrt2

[static pollen]

That one

and ref is the radius of any isometric circle

[orchid sorrel]

not going to bother to analyse that today

just mult by sqrt2 and call it a day

[static pollen]

Multiply what

Ok i got it yeah kinda work

[orchid sorrel]

did you read the conversation on what we're doing here...

yes

[static pollen]

So that confirms this, and it also confirms the circles.

but like it must be years since the first concept of diagonal plugin and it was not said that it was necessary to multiply by √2? Someone should pin something about it now too

[orchid sorrel]

you'd probably get even different results using larger semiaxes values while keeping the ratio 2:1 due to the nature of ellipses

feel free to desmos it yourself

[stoic palm]

Doing too much for a pixel game xD

[orchid sorrel]

I didn't learn math for it to go to waste lol

[twin fjord]

The math is scaring me

[stoic palm]

I mean fair enough

[misty pawn]

Math is truth

[ripe jasper]

math

[sharp kettle]

forgot to save the whole time i was working on these

[odd tapir]

The swat helicopter 🔥🔥

You have plans to remake TT military vehicles??

Just asking

[sharp kettle]

ive got a whole lot of other things to do

[surreal oasis]

Angel 24 store as Fence so it can easily be integrated into any modular build

[static knoll]

Could someone give me a sports Json that has Rotation?, Not Night animation

[charred skiff]

Guys

I cant continue Frankfurt airport

I will be sharing it here when i come back home

And yall can continue it

||sorry 😭 😭||

[uncut acorn]

After a year, 16 new buildings will soon to be added in the next western pack update soon. Work in progress yet, haven't revealed new buildings.

This is not an April fool's prank

[static knoll]

I like the Water Tower from that plugin. It looks very good.

[fervent glacier]

How do I import my Plugins to the game? Ngl I really wanna import the planes and some deco

[vast kayak]

The new stadium plugin is not in the game?

[charred skiff]

Ok it is a prank xd

[urban grove]

What stadium?

[charred skiff]

Which stadium

?

[charred skiff]

Hiii dual, i continued frankfurt yippie

[urban grove]

Ok, take your time Catrine. I can wait until you're finished

[charred skiff]

😊

[vast kayak]

Football

[charred skiff]

Wha...?

[urban grove]

Ok? But what stadium plugin are you talking about

[vast kayak]

Oh damn.

[charred skiff]

???

uhhh, here we go again, ||i will ask for some help from Erionit||

[fervent glacier]

Rate my md11

Ig

[low loom]

cool

omg, i like my role color

[fervent glacier]

I got a quick question btw

How do I make my plane fly

[charred skiff]

hiii hadestia

[stuck radish]

4/10

[fervent glacier]

Thanks any feedbacks?

[north hare]

How to have those green tiles...

Am new..

I use pixly

Hope it's not a virus 😭

[stuck radish]

Hide layer?

How you're gonna download a png with virus

[charred skiff]

wha...?

[fervent glacier]

Btw how do I make my md11 into a flying piece of metal

It's my first time doing planes in theotown ig

[north hare]

The app

Pixly

[stuck radish]

Idk?

[fervent glacier]

Pixel studio if ur phone new

[north hare]

Okay

[fervent glacier]

You can make liveries on my md11 I guess...

[fervent glacier]

First time efforting this

[stuck radish]

No thanks i already have one

[charred skiff]

you dont have to draw them manually

[fervent glacier]

Nice

[fervent glacier]

How do I do it?

[fervent glacier]

Where can I get this

[stuck radish]

Yea you can't

[charred skiff]

as i said in town square: downisze 3d models

[fervent glacier]

It's unreleased of course

[stuck radish]

Them are private for espefic people

[charred skiff]

its private

[fervent glacier]

Alr

I guess

[charred skiff]

@fervent glacier

[fervent glacier]

Alr

[charred skiff]

also if you want diagonal A380 you can get it on my server

[fervent glacier]

Can I make larger plane thst flies

[charred skiff]

idk how to make them fly

but sure you can

[fervent glacier]

I'll just keep it as deco

[fervent glacier]

How?

[charred skiff]

ok

[charred skiff]

.

[fervent glacier]

Alr

Also wdym ny downsize 3d models I made it in pixel studio

[charred skiff]

open sketchfab (any 3d models marketplace will work) try to get isometric view and screenshot it

then go to your pixel editor and downsize it

[fervent glacier]

Oh

Thank you

I'll do it tommorow

[charred skiff]

oki

[charred skiff]

add shading btw

also some parts look a little bit meh

[fervent glacier]

I'll do it tommorow

[charred skiff]

add windows too

[charred skiff]

oki

[low loom]

hi, how are you

[charred skiff]

i am fine, wbu?

[fervent glacier]

I'll do it

And I got ts

[charred skiff]

?

[fervent glacier]

Idk why

[charred skiff]

ok

[fervent glacier]

It says privileged plugins

[charred skiff]

ok ok

i can read

[fervent glacier]

How do I fix it?

[charred skiff]

if i knew i would have helped

[static pollen]

Lmao that's not leafs vehicles assets, these are mine

[charred skiff]

lol

what is an in-game text and title?

[frigid tusk]

Name and description

[near flame]

They have a point

[midnight obsidian]

"Title" and "text"

"title":"abc", "text":"def"

[charred skiff]

Ohhh

Thanks

[fervent glacier]

@charred skiff

Kinda large windows I guess

[midnight obsidian]

Wrong perspective, lacks shading

If this were uploaded into the plugin store i would disapprove it with the vague message "Poor graphics."

[charred skiff]

It is not isometric

[charred skiff]

Btw to add price and other stuff i just have to write: price:100

?

[fervent glacier]

Edited

[sharp kettle]

Uh-

[fervent glacier]

Wait

[sharp kettle]

The prespective is entirely off bub

[fervent glacier]

@charred skiff @sharp kettle how about this

Wait

[sharp kettle]

The scale is absurd, the prespective are off, it lack shadows

[charred skiff]

It is not isometric 😭

[fervent glacier]

How do I make it isometric

[charred skiff]

As i said

Find an isometric view in sketchfab

[fervent glacier]

Some of them ass

[charred skiff]

??

[fervent glacier]

Wait let me give you a picture where I resized it

I resized it I guess

[charred skiff]

Ok

[charred skiff]

Uhhh

Noo

I am making fraport too

[restive hollow]

Lets her make bruh

[charred skiff]

?

[restive hollow]

What?

[charred skiff]

Nvm

[restive hollow]

Is it april fool?

[charred skiff]

Idk

[urban grove]

Eggo you're making Frankfurt airport too?

[fervent glacier]

Uh

[restive hollow]

The proportions are too off

[urban grove]

Is this a 3D model or something then turn it into pixelated? If so then i don't think this is how you do it

[fervent glacier]

This is the original but the angle isn't isometric

...

[restive hollow]

Nothing is isometric

[urban grove]

Then try to make it isometric

[charred skiff]

It is not isometric

[fervent glacier]

I'll find

Or wait

It's just an image resize error

I'll redo ts I guess

[charred skiff]

Ok

[boreal charm]

hmm

[restive hollow]

Hmm

[still gorge]

Bro remember me the old sellado

Ahh

[charred skiff]

Wha..?

[static sandal]

Nicaragua Central Bank

I’ll try to detail the roof

[restive hollow]

Back with another masterpiece

[gray gate]

Dayumn

[static knoll]

Advance

[sharp hare]

use vonarks a320 to know what a isometric plane looks like

this is a isometric view

WIP btw

[charred skiff]

what airline is that?

[sharp hare]

Air asia without text

[charred skiff]

oki

[charred skiff]

cool

[eternal sail]

an upper-middle-class blue house in Mexico

[lavish sail]

why not yellow

now thats a house in Mexico

[eternal sail]

Lol

[grizzled walrus]

Heya! I hope this is the right place to ask this. Where can I find that white border for that skinny path?!

[fossil plank]

pretty sure thats just the ingame sidewalk lol

[grizzled walrus]

Lol oh jeez, really? I cannot find it anywhere 😫

[surreal oasis]

it is called Pavement and it can be found in the transportation menu

[grizzled walrus]

Thanks so much 🙏

[uncut acorn]

Heyyy long time no see

[ripe jasper]

same with you

[sharp kettle]

What helicopter is this for? where does it come from i forgot

[fervent glacier]

😭

[sharp hare]

mayor i think

no wait

it comes from that helipad

you get from the chirstmas gifts

[fervent glacier]

@sharp hare

[sharp hare]

yeah uhm

still not isometric

[fervent glacier]

How about this

[gray gate]

Thats quite massive

[fervent glacier]

This is the image where can I find something isometric

[fervent glacier]

3d isometric models where

[sharp hare]

3d warehouse

you can make it isometric by simply rotating it

[stoic palm]

@fervent glacier This is no where near the games design

If you aren't gonna bother trying then I suggest trying something else lmao

Taking the easy way it's going to work

[fervent glacier]

Alr

This angle?

[stoic palm]

Also assets from anything else just won't be approved for upload lmao

Not really sure what your goal is

[fervent glacier]

Someone said that use a 3d model then trace it

They said Downsize 3d model in pixel art then trace it

[stoic palm]

Yeah that's lazy and as I said won't be approved

But do as you please

[fervent glacier]

But Is it in perfect angle?

[stuck radish]

Still wrong angle

[fervent glacier]

They said 120° for isometric angle

So I guess I'll try

So I guess I'll try

.

[stuck radish]

This is isometric

@fervent glacier

[fervent glacier]

What

[stuck radish]

Just read?

[fervent glacier]

I didn't see my internet is lagging rn

[fervent glacier]

If I'm having hard time on ts I'll just make something else atp

I'll make some airport terminal styles I guess

[stoic palm]

I would suggest starting with something simple

And learning the basics

[fervent glacier]

Alr

Can I mind something for a secound

who made the naia plugin in the plugin store I wanna know and ask something for him I guess

[stoic palm]

#bot-commands message

Here is a message that links the author, you may have to DM him on the forums, I can't say I have seen him around here

[fervent glacier]

Alr

I'm just curious on something

[fervent glacier]

Since you asked me to start with simplier What do you think about my airport terminal?

[sharp kettle]

below average..

guess theres still room for improvement tho

[fervent glacier]

What to improve?

For the terminal I guess

[sharp kettle]

i dont know man, why dont you take a look at ingame buildings for examples

plus having a refrence image helps too

[stoic palm]

I mean the shape and such is fine

But it just generally doesn't fit the games style

[fervent glacier]

Added shadow

[sharp kettle]

this is how building should look my man

you are making me depressed with that thing

[fervent glacier]

@sharp kettle

Better?

[still gorge]

Make it perfect cube

[sharp kettle]

its not what its suppose to look like but i guess youre going in the right direction-

[fervent glacier]

Im making it look like naia terminal 2

[sharp kettle]

i dont really care what youre trying to make, what im trying to say is that it is not up to the game artstyle

[still gorge]

@fervent glacier make like this

[fervent glacier]

I'll just stop bothering you I guess

[fervent glacier]

And im kinda bad on shading stuff

[sharp kettle]

just follow tutorials and examples innit

also please turn off the pings aye-

[fossil plank]

It'd really help (if you haven't already) if you went and watched some tutorials on YouTube, the pins on this channel are also invaluable resources, just practice enough and don't expect your first creations to come out as a masterpiece and you'll figure it out in no time.

[sharp kettle]

my first plugin lol (never actually coded it to become an ingame plugin)

was looking at ingame building style back and fourth

[still gorge]

Doesn't look first plugin

[sharp kettle]

drew it 5 years ago

[still gorge]

Ye looks good doesn't look frist plugin tbh

Mine was 😭💀

[static knoll]

I like the red one with white, it's similar to one that always passes near my house (I think it's from my city government)

Already Waiting for Approval

[fervent glacier]

Terminal 2 test

I'll remove some dots that was drawn accidentally around no where

[charred skiff]

Is it a perfect cube?

I think no

[fervent glacier]

Doesn't look good for yall

[fervent glacier]

It's based on terminal 2 naia it is a perfect cube I'll show you

[charred skiff]

It is not a perfect cube yk?

[charred skiff]

I dont think so

[fervent glacier]

It looks like this

@charred skiff

[charred skiff]

It is not a cube

[charred skiff]

Put on other layer

[fervent glacier]

Did

[uncut acorn]

Me? I’m always active here, and it doesn’t mean I’m long not been active

[charred skiff]

Ok

[fervent glacier]

I'm referring about terminal 2 in naia

[fervent glacier]

Sorry for bothering but Did you make the naia airport pack?

[charred skiff]

??

[fervent glacier]

The airport in manila

[charred skiff]

No one made naia

[uncut acorn]

No

[charred skiff]

Ik?

Lol

[stoic palm]

Some one has xD

Very old

[uncut acorn]

there is

[charred skiff]

Fr?

[fervent glacier]

I wanna remodel it lmao

[charred skiff]

Lol

[uncut acorn]

made by michaelbello

[charred skiff]

Ohh okay

[fervent glacier]

But my terminal 2 sucked already lmao

[charred skiff]

Beacuse it is not a cube, and it looks fine

[stoic palm]

Is that staff micheal or a different one lmao

I can't keep track

[charred skiff]

You will improve

[fervent glacier]

I'll do terminal 1 after 2

[charred skiff]

Ok

Maybe start with something easy?

[fervent glacier]

I'll start with terminal 2 it's easy

[charred skiff]

Cause making an airport is hard

And you are a begginer

[fervent glacier]

Yeah

Uhhh

[uncut acorn]

this guy

[fervent glacier]

Let me try to make Dali store

I'll queue my airport for now

[uncut acorn]

Tbh the jetways look futuristic

[fervent glacier]

I'm remodeling it btw

If he was online...

I'll keep ts for now

[sharp kettle]

it can fly above your mayor's mansion in game now!

[charred skiff]

Make it isometric

[fervent glacier]

Made smth easy

Dali store 😀

[sharp kettle]

its an improvement

[fossil plank]

Should definitely reference in-game graphics

[sharp kettle]

altough, that store roof isnt symmetrical

[fervent glacier]

There's a tiny bit of shadoe

[sharp kettle]

been saying that since 99 😭

[fossil plank]

(I know)

[sharp kettle]

dont forget the shadow on the ground too

[fervent glacier]

Added shadows on cars

[fossil plank]

Did you entirely ignore the 2 pictures chipper sent earlier on how to properly do shadows

[fervent glacier]

So I need to make the

[fervent glacier]

Darker shadow

[fossil plank]

no... no

look at the picture and compare to yours 🥹

[neat cedar]

uh

[lavish sail]

uh

[neat cedar]

Did you realize that the lights arent coming from that side

Shadowing is still wrong

[lavish sail]

Give that poor person a ruler

[sharp kettle]

im going to cry

[neat cedar]

Guys wait wait

[fossil plank]

I'm already crying

[neat cedar]

What if he lives on equator or a tropic 😭🙏

[fervent glacier]

Let me fixxie

[fervent glacier]

Tropic

Yes

[neat cedar]

Let's focus on the shadow

[charred skiff]

It is not isometric...

[neat cedar]

Wait does it even fit into a template?😭

[sharp kettle]

im going to loose it

🙏

[neat cedar]

it is easy to comprehend if you are not a toddler and had drawing experiences before (childish drawings count)

[sharp kettle]

@fervent glacier

[fervent glacier]

Thank you

Look

This is the reason why I keep being bad on pixel art

[charred skiff]

Sad(

[fervent glacier]

Litreally

[fervent glacier]

I'm done

[fossil plank]

you... still didn't fix the.... shadow

[fervent glacier]

.

[sharp kettle]

but i see you fixed that roof

[neat cedar]

barely

[fossil plank]

hey I mean it's progress

Better then nothing, keep it up

[fervent glacier]

Yes

Let me fix

[fossil plank]

We're on the right track, somewhat I suppose

Keep it on the baseplate though

[sharp kettle]

god bless america

[fervent glacier]

I'm done

It's over

[sharp kettle]

Json: allow us to introduce ourself

[fervent glacier]

Thanks for helping me out

[fervent glacier]

Don't worry I'll do it

I have been doing json in miencraft resourcrpacks

[sharp kettle]

oh i forgot theres PCA

This guy right here is your best friend

[fervent glacier]

Ngl I'm gonna redo the airport

[sharp kettle]

goodluck

[sharp kettle]

ive abandoned him for 3 years now, havent talked to em since-

[fossil plank]

I've also recently moved on from him, he served me well, we made many plugins together

[charred skiff]

Nice

[fervent glacier]

Chat

It worked

[charred skiff]

Show

[fervent glacier]

It worked but it's floating

[fossil plank]

crop your png

[fervent glacier]

It's cropped

[dusty hill]

it doesn't look well

[static knoll]

Irregular Shape

[dreamy hearth]

ooh knew it looked German, didn't expect somebody to actually make Frankfurt's airport considering Munich's airport was alr made

anyways this football field took longer than it should've

[ripe jasper]

no i was just lazy to type out a full sentence saying same w emeraldo, nice to see androx again

[surreal oasis]

Would you like to learn a very decent trick to improve your graphics?

[fervent glacier]

I'm referring on something

Like how do I exactly make the store won't float

[surreal oasis]

Yeah but you still need to improve that image tho

[fervent glacier]

Like?

[surreal oasis]

We can turn that into something like this but in a different color scheme

(made by me btw)

I'd like to know what graphic suite do you use.

[fervent glacier]

That graphics looks nice but I'm kinda beginner on doing things so I guess I'll try doing it

[surreal oasis]

Its really kind of easy

I do advise using Ibispaint

[fervent glacier]

Oohhh

Ibis paint

I use that

But I used pixel studio

[surreal oasis]

Use Ibispaint instead

[fervent glacier]

Now how do I avoid my build to float

[surreal oasis]

@fervent glacier You might need this

[surreal oasis]

Can I get an in-game screenshot?

aeaeaeae

t he we l l

[fervent glacier]

@surreal oasis

[surreal oasis]

Firstly, Draw Ground must be True, and secondly, your image is only cropped on the top, left and the right, and not at the bottom which is why it looks like that

And yes. Proportions are off. The building you made is too large.

[fervent glacier]

So proportions needs to be enabled

[surreal oasis]

Proportions ain't a setting

Something is off with your sprite by itself

[fervent glacier]

Alr

I

I'll redo

This is the image

[surreal oasis]

Instead of drawing the baseplate, I recommend using the ones provided in this file

By its looks it should've been a 2×2

[fervent glacier]

Alr

Let me make a house

[surreal oasis]

Y'know what I'm going to do a quick demo of how to make a plugin

[fervent glacier]

@surreal oasis what Brush do you use?

[dusk kernel]

Was taking a look at how my plugins were doing
Never thought GABP would surpass 100k downloads and get so many nice comments

Almost makes me wanna go back and make more buildings

[dreamy hearth]

progress for today; might put this again on hold until April 15 cuz Holy Week

[frigid tusk]

Finallllllly a football field big enough

[fervent glacier]

@surreal oasis what do you think?

[surreal oasis]

Decent

You do need to use a building template

[fervent glacier]

I used tiles

[surreal oasis]

Y'know what take this video for reference

https://youtu.be/k2CAJHhqMAw?si=KakYUsaDGdpZW9hW

[fervent glacier]

Let me import the plugin

[uncut acorn]

Holy schmups oh yeah

[ripe jasper]

the hold until april 15 is so filipino lololl

looks epic

[charred skiff]

Xd

[fervent glacier]

Made a house how do I fix

[surreal oasis]

What brush did you use?

[near flame]

why do you make it so blurry

[surreal oasis]

@fervent glacier PLEASE just watch my timelapse

It has all the steps you could need (without explanation)

[charred skiff]

Fr

[fervent glacier]

Did

[surreal oasis]

Watch it in the slowest speed possible, and observe

[zealous ruin]

What plugin is this?

[uncut acorn]

1/16

[dreamy hearth]

New railway pack from TCPS iirc

[fervent glacier]

Digital pen and the triangle shade near digital pen

Ngl what's the best pixel art app to use for theotown that is compatible for Android 13+

[surreal oasis]

Ibispaint

That is how it is

[fervent glacier]

What brush did you even used

[surreal oasis]

Digital pen

[fervent glacier]

Same

But for shadings

[surreal oasis]

Use Felt-Tip pen at 2.5 to 0.4 Brush size.

Make sure that everything is on different layers

e.g the uppermost layer is the lineart layer, followed by the shading and noise layer, and the color layer

[fervent glacier]

Alr

[royal linden]

New version of my old building

[near flame]

new version is better of course

[eager oriole]

nice

[odd tapir]

Both looks amazing

[stuck radish]

I already showed you what is a isometric

[prisma vault]

Nice. Does it come in different colours?

[stuck radish]

1 pixel not isometric

[fervent glacier]

Where

I told ai so

[stoic palm]

Because AI is all knowing

[fossil plank]

what has plugin creation come to

[sharp kettle]

what has the world come to

[fervent glacier]

I'm pissed

EVen its not isometric im trying

But I think thanks for helping

[ripe jasper]

everything is made up of 2x1 pixels in tt

2x1 pixels horizontal

you get it right(my analogy)

[stuck radish]

Ai doesn't know anything

And this is isometric

[stuck radish]

I already showed you

[fervent glacier]

I shaded on ts 😭

[stuck radish]

Yea don't free draw

[fervent glacier]

Dude i-

[stuck radish]

Oversized

[fervent glacier]

That's 3x3

[stuck radish]

Each pixel should be 1x1

Still oversized

[fervent glacier]

Hm

So do I resize it?

[stuck radish]

I guess this helps

[fervent glacier]

Thank you

[static knoll]

Could you make a new version of your plugin for that orange and white building? I don't remember the name.

[fervent glacier]

I'm gonna crash out myself outside

[royal linden]

I will do it soon

[static knoll]

That looks great. Aesthetic.

[sharp kettle]

or dont use 3D model at all and simply draw it from scratch so you know how the isometric shape should look like

[stuck radish]

Im not going to say if it is isometric or no

Find out yourself

[fervent glacier]

Alr

[stuck radish]

Oh wait i was wrong

[gray gate]

U get the actual lenght using 0.54

[stuck radish]

Ye ye

I mistoke

[sharp kettle]

bringing the transportation update 1 step closer

Now the rotation frames

[static pollen]

If you used shading layer it's pretty fast to make the symetric frame

[neat cedar]

Slow readers: 🥰
Fast readers:💀

[fervent glacier]

Where in India is this

[sharp kettle]

[fervent glacier]

Lmao

[fervent glacier]

Average fake depressed users that needs gf

[sharp kettle]

jesus christ please chill out with the pings

[sharp hare]

why are you doing it in ibis paint

thwre are easier ways

anw its your choice

[fervent glacier]

I do not know much on pixel studio anyways is it isometric

[sharp hare]

The wings, i don't know. The fuselage seems like yes.

[fervent glacier]

So it's almost

Ill fix the engines

Then wings

[fervent glacier]

@sharp hare I made 2 types one for flying and one for ground

Time to make the stress part 🙏

[outer shadow]

are there any diagonal bridges?

[wanton stag]

Am I dumb or can I not see the difference haha

[wanton stag]

Can you share what to use?

[fervent glacier]

I will be testing these don't say any errors I'll do my best

Wait

Is Bus Terminal plugin not working?

[near flame]

yes bus terminal plugin is pretty buggy

[charred skiff]

Ye

[wanton stag]

Quick question

If the standard pixel tile is 32x16

Must single tile houses be restricted to 32x32 graphics? Or can there be a "tall" single tile structure?

[midnight obsidian]

Yes, you can have tile houses up to 32x1024 if i remember the limit correctly

[wanton stag]

Criminy that doesn't work at all

Are they blurry because android doesn't handle small files well

[livid agate]

It's blurry in preview because it's a small file and it gets increased in size with an interpolation that causes it to become blurry.

In GIMP, it looks fine

[raw heath]

Can anyone give suggestions what should i add next

[surreal oasis]

You should add more details to the side

[sharp kettle]

lmao, mandiri

also, roof decors

[median orchid]

I think the glass color is a bit too dark

[surreal oasis]

No it looks fine

[fervent glacier]

Hmm

When I export them it seems very buggy on textures where the textures are half

Or maybe I should skip this for now on

[wanton stag]

Oh that's cool! Thank you

[wanton stag]

Yeah some texture on the logo side would be good

[wanton stag]

If you wanted to be more realistic, you could probably add like some white or grey boxes on the roof to be HVAC/ACMV

[uncut acorn]

Fresh

[fervent glacier]

Naia terminal 2 wip

[ripe jasper]

Naia?? Philippines?? Uy pilipins 🇵🇭🇵🇭

[fervent glacier]

I hope that guy who made naia airport pack is still alive

[ripe jasper]

oh michaelbello?

hasn't been active for a good while but he's probably chilling somewhere in phil

[fervent glacier]

I'm gonna ask him if I can upload naia airport pack inspired by him

[charred skiff]

of course you can lol

as long as you didnt copy

[fervent glacier]

@charred skiff ts I made

[charred skiff]

ok?

[fervent glacier]

Is it fine now

Or needs improvments

[charred skiff]

it definitely needs improvements

[fervent glacier]

Like

[charred skiff]

shading, wings, cockpit, engine

[fervent glacier]

Ngl I'll stop making planes plugin stuff for now

[fervent glacier]

Is it isometric 😔

[charred skiff]

ig

[near flame]

no

[supple tapir]

Is there limit in installing plugins? If so, how many plugins is the limit?

[charred skiff]

nope

[supple tapir]

Good news!

thank you

[charred skiff]

np

as long as your phone/pc can handle tho

[supple tapir]

[rocky mirage]

There's Indonesia, dude

[charred skiff]

Dont worry

[charred skiff]

Thanks))

[charred skiff]

Wdym?

[eager oriole]

you have a lot of plugins ☺️ they are nice and then start with another, i do the same but "finishing it"

[charred skiff]

Uhh

Xd

[eager oriole]

xd

[midnight obsidian]

Can relate

[charred skiff]

lol

[midnight obsidian]

I love making plugins

But as soon as i hit a roadblock

That love turns into hatred

[charred skiff]

same

i just make them for fun

[sharp kettle]

Nuka-Cola lookalike

[eager oriole]

not finished but i feel like it needs more details

[charred skiff]

niceeee

[eager oriole]

its supposed to be a water pump from the ground

[eager oriole]

thanks

[orchid sorrel]

bump

[wicked pumice]

how to download plugin

[eager oriole]

lol

[orchid sorrel]

you download it

and then put it in the plugins folder

Ptag files

[agile forum]

TheoTown files are located under such directories:

• Windows: C:\Users(insert username)\TheoTown or %USERPROFILE%\TheoTown
• Linux: ~/TheoTown
• MacOS: /user/TheoTown
• Android: /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/info.flowersoft.theotown.theotown/files
  By default you should be in /storage/emulated/0/. Uninstalling the game on Android will delete all files, unless you decide to keep the files when prompted by uninstaller. (android 11 onwards restricts access to external storage for apps, so if the files cannot be accessed this way, opt for the in-build manager explained below)
• ios: Search "TheoTown" in the file manager app

If you cannot access game files through these directories, game has an in-built file manager for mobile devices which is accessible from the region view menu.

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

[eager oriole]

i also added another biome but in future i'll add more plants or rocks, i dont know

[static knoll]

It looks like an alien

[ripe jasper]

because it is

[wind smelt]

I have a question, how many pixels should be a floor?

I want to make a mid rise plugin

[tidal glen]

Well this are the baseplates for the zones

[midnight obsidian]

i'd say around 7-9 pixels

depends on your style

[wind smelt]

Ty

[misty pawn]

Hmmm......maybe add some sandworms ✨

[eternal sail]

mmmmm maybe a swamp biome with main colors blue and yellow or purple?

[wind smelt]

What do you think guys (still WIP)

Any ideas suggestions

[sharp kettle]

i cant see what that is

[wind smelt]

It's a mid rise building

Idk why quality is too low

[sharp kettle]

send an SS instead of the png

[wind smelt]

How I export as a ss in pixly?

Oh, I am dumb

ss is a screenshot

Here you go

Any suggestions for?

[sharp kettle]

the windows look strange

[wind smelt]

Yeah, it's my first time trying to make a plugin.

I think now it looks better

[sharp kettle]

consider taking examples from ingame buildings-

[rain gate]

Amazing

Here are some buildings inspired from Kowloon Walled City in China.

[sharp kettle]

r/therewasanattempt

[ripe jasper]

no no, in my whole 2 - 3 years of being here no one made kowloon walled city

but because its so dense it needs alot, and alot of proper details

you def got the base right

[rain gate]

I also made it so they don't need a road to live in

[fervent glacier]

Jet bridge wip

[ripe jasper]

that's realistic enough but it needs to look more worn down, the ads need to be brighter and there should be hanging clothes

[rain gate]

I already did hanging clothes on one building, but these are good suggestions! I might share this on the forum once I'm done.

[fervent glacier]

This is based of manila terminal 2 that I wanna remodel like Michael Bello made

I just didn't put walls on the front since this part is the walkways

[ripe jasper]

try improving more and come back to this project to slowly make it better

also the chinese characters look more like hiragana

[fervent glacier]

@charred skiff btw can I get your a320's ngl I wanna make philippine airlines cebu pacific and airasia.

[fervent glacier]

Just tiny little bit of fixes Ig

[ivory kestrel]

Can someone help me?
I tried making my first plugin but this thing always make that impossible

[sharp kettle]

thats not what i meant lol

forget it

[fossil plank]

lol

[sharp kettle]

show json

[ivory kestrel]

Wait..

[sharp kettle]

i wanted to continue making plugins today, but man ive ran out of motivation

[fervent glacier]

Wip

Ninoy aquino

[stuck radish]

Iberia A330-200

[supple tapir]

is there a lift bridge plugin?

[rain gate]

True

[surreal oasis]

A massive step-up from its predecessor

[eager oriole]

It is

[eager oriole]

✨✨

[eager oriole]

Maybe. it sounds great

layout but i don't know if make only one of those but bigger or make it like that. Or make variations like i did with the big buildings

I think i'm gonna make one of those bigger

[fervent glacier]

Dm

Nvm

[fervent glacier]

Do you have philippine airlines?

Or cebu

[rain gate]

@ripe jasper here it is, with the changes that you suggested me to do

[fervent glacier]

I recommend adding shadings btw

[stuck radish]

Nah
