Change TheoTown.getStorage() to City.getStorage()
...
Okay, that's what I thought
I just wanted to make sure it wasn't anything more complex than changing the prefix
stadiums are hard
Mmnn jumping into crocodile's mouth eh.
Before
After
Belk's...makeover? Not really an improvement but rather a change to make it more like real life.
Many Belks have the three arches like that
done, but currently adding night animations
small stadium
that is not
some comments:
grass is near perfect
but the white lines are blurred
make it clear
and thin
it's too thick
Ok i will fix it tomorrow
This is what i got untill now
The middle part is closer to the right
the other two looks uncanny
overall vehicles I made so far
some related to NASA some don't
I could like to see cranes trucks
uuh it's actually stair truck
Ik maybe a future project
wait "crane truck" u mean tow truck or something
do it
it looks like recovery vehicle that military use or maybe it is
it is similar to recovery vehicle
Yeah even this insane monsters exist lol
yea
It could be cool to make like huge building under construction, just need more vehicles
i have a plan on doin the largest mining machine in germany but i think that is way too difficult
The rotatory excavator?
this one but i might gave up on this one
ooooh ya
I support it, could even buy it by 250 diamonds lol
linger is bad in making shadows
one finish product
@pastel summit the TCPS. he was part of it

Old Brazilian Public School (not finished).
Oh nice
Before:
After:
Food Lion Improvements
(Time for PenangLion to be triggered about the back again lol)
Future brazilian public school. Not finished yet, I will add night version soon.
Maybe tomorrow (?)
1990's and 2000's architectural style.
some comments
i just kinda dislike the roof being just the normal diamond formation
should be more like the roof on the building on the back
schools like that have these roofs
Hey guys any plugin ideas here, PM me if you have one
i just kinda dislike the roof being just the normal diamond formation
@pastel summit I know, I also find this roof style ugly, but I tried to represent some schools of my state. Those schools were not so old, but the old schools have pyramid roofs. ๐
Guys, the grey roof is fiber cement roof.
not floor
the red one is the floor
Confusing
Wow
im not sure about my newest plugin... it has tons of modules to build
since it's a 5x7 so i separated it into 5 parts
god my brain is melting due to TOO MANY ADJUSTMENTS!!
vehicle are done. NASA related or not
I believe that the vehicles on NASA need to be refueled too
korean road pack
wat
ok
yEs
new target
@orchid sorrel some interesting questions, is there a setting for the speed of the train? or is there a limit for the speed for it?
they work as any other car
so, yes
you can add a "speed" attribute to your car definition
be aware of maximal road speed
@white snow wee woo
Before
After
Big Lots...also not really an improvement, but just another change to match closely with real-life
Hello guys who have full frames of road deco
scuffed cropping
Can I put sound in the building?
depends when should it be played
I want to make a sound when I get close to the building.
someone create Night City 2077 Corporate centre skyscrapers
Do it yourself
is this from a game?
this is bad idea mate. Copyright, remember about copyright. also no thanks mate
Soo whats this
@jolly wadi well do it yourself
Confusing about 4 lane highways ๐ซ ๐ซ
done 4 lane highways available soon ๐
I want to make a sound when I get close to the building.
@fierce haven
You can try this code. 
plugin.json
[{"id":"$soundID",
"type":"sound",
"file":"sound files"},
{"id": "$pluginID",
..stuff..,
"script":"script.lua"}]
script.lua
local bx,by
function script:event(x,y,level,event)
if event == Script.EVENT_PLACED and Tile.getBuildingDraft(x,y):getId() == "$pluginID" then
bx,by = Tile.getBuildingXY(x,y)
end
end
function script:nextDay()
local sound = Draft.getDraft("$soundID")
local vx,vy,vscale = City.getView()
if vx >= bx - 25 and vx <= bx + 25 and vy >= by - 25 and vy <= by + 25 then
TheoTown.playSound(sound)
end
end
this looks like a 6 lane highway
Brazilian Public School (finished).
What :0
the problem is that it doesn't look good when it moves
I loved it
@rain gate thanks

Planning to make a anime flag pack
(no intent to public release, for now)
Waiting for your ||backlash|| feedback
"anime flag pack" do u mean animated flag pack?
Static flags, sorry
It's a Anime flag pack
Flags from different animes
I've already made the ones from Youjo Senki
And I'm planning to do the flags from One Piece
Shingeki no Kyojin
so your the second who is making a anime flag pack
its somewhere said here but im not gonna scroll a months back
i dont remember ;p
but why make flag sets
i was the one who kinda killed it because of flag set 3.0
Ok, nice concept.
i have some flag poles if you need any
And decided to expand
i decided to expand and took forever
I thought this would be something similar to Bevise's animated flag pack
@hybrid sedge Any help is welcome
took a few months to complete flag set 3.0
i and Jolly wanted to make a full animeted 4.0 set but that will take even more months
we havent even begon
by mean full is by making 190+ flags x 4
Just make a animated template then make the anime flags then combine them together
@white snow If it's to make a animated flag pack, that would be impossible to me
I see
I dunno for you @hybrid sedge, but I don't see me doing it
i and jolly would need to make 760 frames for making all flags from current times
nah fam
too much
I just make a simple almost to point of Bevise's
Ah yeah, I almost forgot
But I might take a risk doin that
Half-animes also count
i stopped at making plugins because i dont care anymore
i have 8 plugins already
why would i need more
I'm planning to put Avatar flags on it
@white snow remember me trying to hype a project of mine that i never finished
Oh-ok mate
road deco set update 2
i have the frames for making the code and to update it but i didnt see why i would
Another simple mast design I've done
The first one I posted is a wooden mast
For ships and ports
This one is for euro-inspired realms
old beta pole for 3.0
I remember that
how i used to make flag plugins
flag set 3.0 alpha , beta , full release
now imma sleep this is too much
feel free to use these Ranger
@zealous aurora
Thanks champ
Do plugins auto update?
Dear @uncut salmon
Since plugins are made and updated by their respective authors, they have the power to update any time they want to, so in long-short story, it all depends of the author post an update.
If your question is about the plugin store, they're posted then reviewed by the system, if approved, they automatically enter in the store, but they have to be uploaded by the author first
Yours truly
@zealous aurora
your truly, a blue mast w/concrete base
stop the pings REEEEEEE
@fierce haven Stuff mean your plugin codes are there.
"script":"your script name.lua"
Place in same folder with json, and sound files.
Did somebody knows how to add lights on a car?
thx
Yeah, that's limitations from the games, repeatedly play the sound. Just change view far from the building sound will stop after finish the last sound.
WIP
You can run the script using lua every x seconds (depending on sound duration) and make it check for proximity and if you are close, play it
Yes
@rain gate your road pack is nice but the name conflicts with my road pack with the same name on the store lol
But there is no sound
You change the playlimitations. Change back to be 0
@rain gate your road pack is nice but the name conflicts with my road pack with the same name on the store lol
@hybrid sedge what your road pack name??
Road pack..
lol
that's a old pic btw but I was tired to change it
but keep it the same name lol
@rain gate it's called road pack but keep the name the same
@fierce haven
playlimitations is a variable to make limit the games to play the sound once (not repeatedly) when you stay in view near building positions. When the view is outside of radius, playlimitations will be zero in next day and when you back to the building, the sound will play once again.
oh i see, ok sorry for same name next update will be change, thanks for mention about it
Still works ร
@fierce haven
What do you mean? Sound still not play or sound still playing repeatedly?
Hmm, I've tried it and it's no problem. Sound play once when view in near of building and play once again when i'm back to the building.
There is no sound
Did you define the sound draft?
Variables problem.

Are there any good cargo container plugins out there. I really need some to finish my container port? I would appreciate the help.
I know there are containers in the game, but I want containers like these.
But u should do it YOURSELF
There's a plugin by that same creator with those in it
@stoic palm what's it called?
I don't know but I know it does exist
i think was made by mayor rascalov (sorry if i spelled it wrong)
Actually u didn't
the wheels are actually hard
almost done :)
Good
Ok thanks
new building, de rotterdam in holland

Bruh why does Linger's plugins is so controversial?
linger?
linger?
in which part?
his plugins lacks a lot of stuff from my view but what controversy?
He was part of TCPS and time to time a solo plugin creator. He is also Chinese as well
@lunar snow in the forum he knows that his plugins are bad and he is trying to clean them up
Yess! 6 lane roads
Lisboa Pack
Perfect
Lookin good
thanks :)
Black Bull's flag (Magna's Variant) - Black Clover
Pls someone help me downloading a Plugin from forum :/
Umm ok thanks
Say if it's worked
Let me open TT
i would recommend to put everything in a folder to organice stuff
also, did you uzip the same plugin twice?
@sweet topaz
gain, put like the towers or the parks stuff in a single folder
because if you just put your plugins like that, it will become hard to navigate if you have lot of plugins like that

Just Epic@signal lagoon
If you want to make it, this basic fun transitions json codes.

any suggestion?

thx
what else should I add
Damn @white snow how can u make the firetruck that good?
DETAIL BY DETAIL
this might be enough
who want to try my plugin (which hasn't finished yet), can download it below.
Note: - this plugin is a trial version with a duration of about 5 years in cities in the game. There are no restrictions about the total city.
- activate the plugin in the plugin settings menu.
I hope I can get your feedback on DM about lagging, experience, and other things you want.

if there are no lagging issues, I will update it on an existing plugin
๐ฎ
You've earned the expert title

nice

@white snow would you consider have the firetruck being a 1x1 plugin as well

Okay literally next to this plugin how to make a service building with unique or custom vehicle like
St grew hospital
guys?
Okay literally next to this plugin how to make a service building with unique or custom vehicle like
@white snow ok so what do u mean?
u know the st grew hospital yes?
it has custom ambulance. I wanted to know how to make like that
so that the airport firetruck can be used
@white snow understand
I think that u make the building a spawnpoint
@white snow
But first u need to code your firetrucks as car
i think I have something like that
Ok find it
Did it work?
uuuuhhhh it's a collection of json of different types of vehicle in the game
[
{"id":"$building_spawner_id",
...
"car spawner":[
{ "cars":["car_id"],
"radius":4000,
"count":10,

Oof
One question, is JSON sensitive to capital letters?
no
Ok, thx
but i would recommend to use caps on Tittle and text only
Yeah, I found the issue
I had put quotes in the numbers ๐
Ok, nvm It dont load, oof
json keys are case sensitive
JSON keys?... IDs?
Nvm, I need help, the game just ignore the plugin (It dont load)
?
The game just dont load the plugin, start as normaly it do, but in the Local Plguins panel, I cant see anything about my plugin
i dont think It is stored in Local plugins plus the plugins that are not from the store usually not shown in the plugin list as well. try to check if you see a tag that says new
{
"id":"$carfirebrigade00",
"type":"car",
"frames":[

],

{
"id":"$animationcaralertlights00",

@white snow
Yes, that's car json code, if you want to spawn it, place the id in "car spawner" on your building.
i dont think It is stored in Local plugins plus the plugins that are not from the store usually not shown in the plugin list as well. try to check if you see a tag that says new
@white snow Thanks
๐ Ahh yes... (Brain: Oof)
The game just dont load the plugin, start as normaly it do, but in the Local Plguins panel, I cant see anything about my plugin
@fast cave
That is plugin.manifest files needed
u could try using draw ground: true. just leave a empty space in the area that u want to be transparent
Emmm... Thanks (I need re-draw the building, I lost the original fine, F)
and then the game automatically render it as see tru not a water render
Emmm... I will do that... (Editing...)
or since u r in a pc try this
make a open land, no trees or everything, and then windows+shift+s key and select the area
basically a copy
Interesting... Thanks
Seems like since the drawing format is pixel art I dont need re-draw the building : D
Oof, I forget about the layers
Perfection
@signal lagoon your plugin work well without lag
Thanks, nice. 
the colors seems off. a bit
Nice, but strange...
Looks good to me
@rain gate hey u seem like a good creator. Where are u from? Im from Vietnam
kinda doesnt fit the pixelart style theotown but looks nice
if that goes through id actually get it
Good art
@white snow i use 8 bit colors
ahh. try to make it realistic as possible
@white snow zoom in
it looks like it's floating
oooh that is really off. try to compare that to Ingame mountain
@white snow it's true the color is different because I think it's moss
this is I made a moss. just with combinations of different green, little yellow, some black and white for contrast and some mixing of colors
tho in this case I added a bit of pink and grey
Look at the plugin made by a user named Jollyan, the color of the grass is also different because not all grasses must be the same color
u can zoom in in the game then look a diffrens too
i actually know about, also him, that but what I'm trying to apply is realistic as possible
you can make your own thing
it is okay
that's why it is accepted
i do the best for this plugin
thats okey i will fix the colors before uploading, if make a stange for you guy
I knew I recognized these mountains from somewhere
hot inspiration
that mountain on the bottom right looks like it was stretched wide putin style
So you saying this mountains literally looks same as mbetixz's mountain?
ngl, looking at it, he/she just pumped the saturation way up to look pixelated and added some tress
yeah
the first time i looked at it, it didn't fit the TT syle in my opnion
and now that the reason why
mhm
@rain gate So what do you have to say about that?
any answer about that?

hello guys, what a best app for building in android? i want to built my own house
you mean to make plguin? just check pinned messagues to find some apps to make those
he mean this
yes, sory for my bad experience becaus firt time i use disqord app ๐ญ๐ญ
okay
i will try download these app, thanks for helping me
(PC version) Why this option is no longer availiable
add waterfalls and cliffs not
only pyramid mountains.
@untold pumice I think someone already made that as a plugin
For real?
I remember some really did some cliffs but i think it was deleted
there is a cliff plugin made by lobby on the forums, i think
where can i download mods directly from the game?
Nice
We call it "sabit" ๐
aaah
i guess u posted this on the wrong channel mate
scenario 1.4
yes. the 6x6 ver
is it a working vehicle ?
not yet
that's quite interesting tbh, i wonder tho, do you have any idea how i can allow a vehicle to spawn from a specific category building (such as T , TT or TTT ?)
but if u want it I'm goin to release all the vehicles I made to the resources in forum
they look all promising tbh
i have also been working on a lot of vehicles altough i never made the json for those
airport vehicles, that's something we have been missing for a while
nice pack.
definitely a highlight of the month
haven't saw somebody doing proper textures till now
tweaked the CHR-380 texture a bit
of course, it's not that good since the texture is 1-2 years old and hasn't been touched since
that's quite interesting tbh, i wonder tho, do you have any idea how i can allow a vehicle to spawn from a specific category building (such as T , TT or TTT ?)
@keen helm
You can use id of buildings to be the targets of your cars.
ok, thanks.
Or lua. 
that should be helpful, thanks a lot.
here is my current project
i think theotown lack a lot in term of tree variety
is it possible to add an Icon to Trees ? @signal lagoon
what icon do you mean?
alright i'll try to explain it better
i would like to create a custom frame preview for the tree
Just put
"preview frames":[{"bmp":"26x26px.png"}]
in your tree codes
Sorry, its must preview frames
thx, the idea is that i want to have a preview of both the tree and a leaf of that specific tree or maybe one of those
here is how i begun
this is a Maritime Pine, common in the mediterranean regions of France and in the Aquitaine region
otherwise, thanks for the help
do the preview have to be a 26px x 26px one ?
"preview frames":[{"bmp":"26x26px.png"}]
@signal lagoon
I little bit forget for code rarely used. 
Interesting Tree
thanks, as TheoTown lack a lot of those, i thought it would be nice to work on a few trees species
just like how i made the redwood trees
Oo, such great thing
Recomendation size. You can make it larger, but i think there are not auto resize on that.
that's what i feared thanks for clarifying
e
it is like a long time ago. maybe it got deleted
@sly ocean where is cliffs by lobby?
@untold pumice https://forum.theotown.com/viewtopic.php?t=3609
Thanks
there is also these made by kingtut https://forum.theotown.com/viewtopic.php?t=3717
just click here to download the .zip
you know how to download plugins from forum, right?
you don't need
Ok
can somebody send me a picture of decent looking airport fire station cus I don't have too much time to look one.
for more better understanding to what am i goin to make heres a road map. It is not a 100% sure that everything that is shown is goin to make out so there's a point of change some where there
i am a long time member ^^
yes, i have taken a very long break
but since i got free time
i do some stuff
here is the Maritime-Pine Tree Icon
๐
the icon thing doesn't work
Piรฑa
the icon thing doesn't work

weird
Weird indeed

when i load the plugin on PC, the preview frame does not appears, instead, i have the tree frame
try changing "preview frames" to "preview frame"
doesn't work as well

hmmm
K
pretty much any text editor will do
QuickEdit or something if you want to code it the hard way
also make sure to read some tutorials on forums: https://forum.theotown.com/viewforum.php?f=41
I don't want a crutch like a thing doing it for me but a foundation
You should see the Getting Started article
Kind of like modding through editing files where everything is all there and you change some numbers and letters instead of type it all yourself
writing jsons is very easy when you get the basics, but you can simply copy the code from the tutorial and change some values
the How to write a plugin tutorial would be the best to start with
QuickEdit? Are there more or is it just QuickEdit that works
I don't make plugins on android, so that's the only app I know
but there is a plenty of text edition apps on the store
anything that allows you to input text and change the extension will do
Extension?
in this case it would be .json
Oh a format
K well Imma go and get out of your hair for right now thanks for the help and assistance
This might be a very rough start and might not be possible or done but I want to make a HD pack where people are 2 pixels are instead like 8x8 pixels a square adding better look and detail
This is possible, but keep in mind that plugin space is limited
Roads will not be straight gray and have small cracks and a day/night cycle with proper lighting effects and reflections (I'm a very creative person that never gets to finish there ideas)
expanding your plugin graphics 8 times would consume 8 times more plugin space
...so Its limited...well great
Maybe I can make a bundle? ๐ค of multiple packs?
You can switch on and off everything you don't want like realistic water waves and animation,ect (this probably not gonna happen let's be real :c)
yeah, you could make each thing a separate plugin file
But I am inspired and highly confident
that's a good thing ๐
I'm probably either going to fail or become a over achiever
however, since it's your first time making a plugin you should start with a small 1x1 building
of the building?
on the json side, "width" and "height" attributes, values of 1 would define a 1x1 building. Both of these have to be equal.
On the graphic side, you can find building templates on a forum thread with the same name, probably
good luck 
INSPIRATION +5
test
-_-
Ikr
It's good
Did I do it?
"Name": "Joe",
"Money": 100,
"Job": "unemployed"
}```
I think that's json
it looks nice
@rain gate just ignore those reports
Will do
seems it's not working
@keen helm
I'm just to know, tree categories can't use the preview frames.
But, if you still want to make your trees have preview frames, you can use fun.
Single tree codes:
[{
"id": "$initiatorid",
"type": "decoration",
"category":"$cat_tree00",
"width":1,
"height":1,
"frames":[{your tree frames}],
"preview frames":[{your preview frames}],
"frame alignment area":true,
"fun":[{
"actions":[
{"type":"remove"},
{"type":"build",
"id":"$yourtreeid"}]
}]
}]```
If you want to make a multiple trees, i think you can put `"frame":frame count` on the fun condition and actions.
```JSON
"fun":[{"condition":{"id":"$initiatorid","frame":1},
"actions":[{"type":"remove"},{"type":"build","id":"$yourtreeid","frame":1}]}]```
[{"id":"$initiatorid",
...
"frames":[{1st preview frame},{2nd preview frame},{another preview frames}]
...
}]```
Did I do it...im new so don't expect alot
"Name": "Joe",
"Money": 100,
"Job": "unemployed"
}```
It's not a script but it's json right?
What is wrong here the quality or the price?
Why are u using discord white mode?
@lunar snow
Seriously
Also the price isnt it
Overal : Unrealistic, Cartoonist, Expensive
Not me
Oh nvm
For me whould be 30 Diamonds

Its possible to demolish whole composition in 1 side demolition?๐
actually no. because the composition only combines separate buildings in each predetermined positions.
...you lost me
lol, i'm replying @sinful meadow
@still coral https://forum.theotown.com/viewforum.php?f=41 <= (almost) everything needed is there
This is so confusing and this pixel art app is really complex
What is airboard and why cant I adjust size of brush or tiles
How do I make a building in art form...do I have to use pixly?
Pixly is not the only app, you can use any drawing software that allows you to disable Anti-Aliasing
For example, I use Clip Studio Paint
(A software that is 0% designed for pixel art and 100% for other drawing styles, and cost like... uh... 50$ in the cheaper version)
For graphics I recommend Theo's basics tutorial. Make sure to get at least the 1x1 building template.
Yeah, That tutorial is very useful
I'm making desert houses
Adding texture...
Some texture and soft shadows/light
is the driveway slanted?
the roof is as well..
the roof is as well..
House idea, but in HD
is the driveway slanted?
Emmm.... I will correct that, thx
did you start from the bottom to top or the other way?\
I dont remember (๐ฅด ), I draw that house like 4 mouths ago, But I never tested it since my phone gets troubles with the battery
But I notice my mistake with the perspective
I tried but it says that no frames are found?
Reeee... I will re-draw the house, working in 1 layer is a torture for me
Before
After
Kroger improvement
The window thing near the back is supposed be some Drive-Thru Pharmacy, but I might remove it, despite the fact that every Kroger in reality has that feature.
What do I do...
I'm a newbie
(Didn't mean to send random white screen)
Y'all are so smart and talented and then there's me lol
I just started to test yesterday
Which app do you guys even use
Smh I wanna create skyscrapers
But apparently its hard and takes ages
Every software that allows you to disable Anti-Aliasing
I use Clip Studio Paint (Cost 50$), but other members use Paint.net, Pixly (Android), or maybe paint
Pixly is very cartoonish
But I'm sure its the only app android users like me can use
Not really, well... the UI yes, but the cartoonish thing depends of who is drawing it
So you're telling me I can create a modern looking skyscraper on pixly
The house plugin is my first serious creation in Pixel Art, but I draw in other styles like a hobby
Depends
If you have experience, or even a minimum reference of how to draw it
(Forum Tutorials can help a lot)
Not depends of what app/software you are using
(You can create masterpieces even in paint)
So lets say the image is done and you save it
How do you add it in to the game with names, details etc
You just need to export it to .png format, and for add functionality, you need to code a simple JSON file
Again, forum tutorials can help for JSON
why this looks like a reporter conversation from the tv?
This is so confusing
What did I do wrong?
It says I keep messing up with id?
Oh...i See it now
I officially don't know
You may forgot to out the image in the folder or you put the image name wrong
Is it bmp? Or bpm
It's thr name of the imgae itself
Well I'm copying from the sample so there is no _bpm/bmp needed?
Nopd
I feel stupid
Let me remove that real quick
K time to try again
I don't know anymore
how it's look? i can't imagine anymore, maybe need something?
What is it supposed to be a skyscraper?
basicly it a 3x3 cormmercial building๐
Maybe add a opening and area kind of how stairs lead up too the roof and add a yellow helicopter symbol with a blinking red attena /shrug
I don't know I'm not very good at this
ah yeah i forgot about door
I'm very good at details but very bad at the whole design thing
I am really great at idea but terrible at execution and working on them
@white snow yeah but i new in design
Can I have help
I'm new to this and I want atleast a small simple thing to work and not even that won't work
@still coral sure, you can help me
...how would I exactly help and thats not what I said at all but ok
mybe i send you a pic you can draw something then i make it as you draw?
...im very good at pixel art but I take hours on the simplest things cuz I love adding alot of detail and as much as I can so I'll try not too over do it...so I can be efficient
I'm not a drawer person... not unless I got a tablet and stylus and which I got neither
@still coral dam, yes sure, so i send you a pic then we work together
yeah like a team, you know
your project is important? maybe next time if you busy now
What do I need too do exactly you send me concept art and I make it into pixel art?
@echo quartz Its Just My First Ever Json Project
Do I have to make the plugin larger?
wait i have a plan @still coral
Tf did I do wrong
@static tendon i think you specify the x and y wrongly
I read that if it overpasses too much ???x??? In pixels then it cuts off most of the thing
I don't know
only on 1024x1024
I'm new to this cut me some slack ๐ข
that is wierdly specific and big
Lmao
resize the image, remove all of empty space
@static tendon i like the top of your building, maybe can i create like that?
@white snow what should I make the width and height
@echo quartz sure pal do anything you want
@static tendon no no, you just need select building then copy/cut then paste in new template
I don't know anymore
@still coral
Please send the plain text format of your code. I can't see anything in JSON Genie ss.
