[unique pivot]

I'll remove the cyberpunk road under it soon

I want to make "ending" for roof

but I am stupid and messed up

got this

hm

[midnight obsidian]

now make diagonal roof

[unique pivot]

oh no

it's not that bad

now finished

when I'll finish all frames

I will separate them in groups and make rotation aware

so like there will be a "straight triangle roof" with several height versions, 2 frames per height

and "turn" with several height versions too, and 4 frames per height

I think it's a very cool feature

I will also add "wide" roofs but I am too lazy to explain

[uneven plover]

Looking nice

Are those road decos? Because if you make them road deco you can place it on slopes too

[unique pivot]

even more finished

[unique pivot]

nah, all roofs are decos

I added code so they can be placed on hills tho

(I mean just decos)

enough for now

I will finish soon

and add wider frames

[livid agate]

[unique pivot]

I can make it white and then use color keyword

To get a lot of variations

And save space

[frozen aurora]

Progress as of now

[frail monolith]

To me looks like a Med-Rise Italian Deluxe shopping centre

[frozen aurora]

Lol

It should look more skyscraper ish after i finish the bottom most floors

[frozen aurora]

Alrighty, the bottom most/hardest part thus far of the tower is complete

Time to take a little break and eat lunch

[glass harbor]

Nice

[unique pivot]

finally

all of the main frames are finished

now I am going to add wide parts hope they're simpler

or maybe no

just make them as bonus roof variant

It's going to be 800 pixels wide

hehe

these parts are weird in terms of perspective but they'll be useful for large roofs

a

well I guess this isn't necessary hehe

[uneven plover]

Lol

You should make your angle higher for slopes

[unique pivot]

yeah thought it should be like that

my bad

@uneven ploveris this one ok?

[uneven plover]

Yep

Kinda needs differeny colors

[unique pivot]

yeah ik

no shading for now

also I will add some texture

I made these as separate images and they're scattered everywhere across plugin space

[lunar snow]

@unique pivot modular buildings?

[unique pivot]

yes

[lunar snow]

Awesome

[unique pivot]

working on decos n stuff because these look plain

but I should finish triangular roofs first

[livid agate]

probably for the best

[unique pivot]

yeah

I thought this is just weird and unprofessional

but if you think

some numbers are thinner than others, and if they were in the same image I would have to add empty space

so I am saving a bit from this

:[

alright I'll just lift the center plate

not like someone is going to connect it with thinner roofs

now the trickier part, corners

bruh

[oblique tundra]

🤔

[unique pivot]

bruh

I also realised I'll need 4 more angles

like I have ones to go 🔳

[ember junco]

Whatcha tryna make

[unique pivot]

but no angles to go

roof

[unique pivot]

for my modular build plugin

these are getting just frustrating

[uneven plover]

Yes I know that feeling soo well

[ember junco]

I mean the building

[ember junco]

Awesome

[unique pivot]

I am trying to cover it up properly

@uneven plover you see that??

time to commit a war crime

[midnight obsidian]

that one pixel 😩

[unique pivot]

and this

wait what's that

these are weird

Oh I think I should lower two tiles a bit

world peace achieved!

now need some details and a bit of shading

pretty sure some tiles are overlapping but who cares

uh oh

it was almost compatible with some roof tiles

oh wait

this one is lifted

👍

[sharp kettle]

Make the right corner piece darker

[unique pivot]

need to add some texture, and fix/add shading at same tiles

yeaj

I did

still in progress

I can make mcdonalds roof

!!

modulable mcdonalds

just imagine

the future is here

okay I'll fix shading soon, want to make it functional now

also I got an idea how to make modulable pipes and fences on roof

man I need to make an array and animations now

boring

this is like I did with windows

write weird and long code and forget about it

my eyes are hurting

I mean seriously they are because of too much pc

lessgo

wait how do I make them rotation aware... it may not work with so much frames

rotation aware doesn't work :(

I guess I'd have to split roofs into... let me count

15k drafts

bruh

or at least 10k

it's mostly copy-paste but still

maybe make these roofs as separate pack

[glass harbor]

The top one reminds me when the Minneapolis stadiums roof fell in

[unique pivot]

lol

btw maybe I can just change the ordering and stuff will work

I'll just hope it works

[frozen aurora]

Just gotta finish one more floor and the other side and then it'll be good to start the set back

[unique pivot]

I fixed

it has constant difrection

just to the wrong side but it works

catastrophe avoided!

imma add more roofs to finish

[fickle frigate]

remaking old plugins is more difficult than creating new ones :((

[unique pivot]

triangular roofs are a huge step forward for my plugin

I just need to finish the code

[fickle frigate]

your roofs look abit blur

i think u should add more contrast and details to it

[unique pivot]

I think these look better like that

[old portal]

Nice

[frozen aurora]

Thanks

[versed pike]

I uploaded my plugin like 10 hours ago

Are taking a bit long to get approved

[unique pivot]

I think the code is done

and I can reuse it for other roof parts

[livid agate]

but can it run crysis?

[frozen aurora]

It's normal, they should probably be out tomorrow

[unique pivot]

icon

[frozen aurora]

The LeVeque Tower may be finished today

[versed pike]

Lol, i said that and some later get approved, is now avaible to download

[frozen aurora]

Nice

[unique pivot]

@versed pike so did you transfer it to anims?

now I will add other roof parts

people check #plugin-support, sorry but it's pretty important

[old portal]

I really like it, but you need to increase the contrast

The shadow should be stronger

[frozen aurora]

Ok, I'll see what i can do

[versed pike]

Oh no i forget that!!

But i dont know how to do that

Is there any tutorial?

[unique pivot]

you can learn and release as update soon

I can help in dms just later

or you can give sprite and code and I'll modify it

[old portal]

How much opacity?

[versed pike]

Which parts of the building should be a diferent sprite?

My building is entirely one png.

[unique pivot]

yiu should have base, 1 floor and top

in separate images as I said

you can In one, next to each other but different images are easier

[versed pike]

At least for my next plugin i will try that, and later i will update the "Edificio Torre" with that

And yes, literraly the name of the building is "Tower Building"

[unique pivot]

I just need a straight roof tile

[frozen aurora]

Not finished yet, but is that better with the contrast?

[unique pivot]

but for this I need to check if does one keyword I need exist

[versed pike]

Wow looks amazing

[old portal]

It looks nice to me

[unique pivot]

it's a tradition at this point

sus

I'll add roof tiles and finish it tomorrow

I think I worked pretty good on this addon and thanks to chipper

[frozen aurora]

Ok

[unique pivot]

rate this building

[midnight obsidian]

9/10

[frozen aurora]

Alrighty, I think this contrasts enough?

[fallen sand]

This mod you can Trade garbage and you get infinity energy and you can Trade energy for money soo profit+++

This

[frail monolith]

Looks amazing. Perfect for a NYC bldg

[unique pivot]

Will it be 10/10 if I make grass roof?

[midnight obsidian]

yes

[uneven plover]

Wowowoow you got my attention

This looks like turkish hamam and now I realised I can make ottoman structures with it

Atleast some

[frozen aurora]

Ok, much better contrasting

[frozen aurora]

It's a building from Columbus.

But it does look like an NYC styled building.

[unique pivot]

Can you show me an example for these structures?

So I may make some assets for them

[unique pivot]

Sounds too overpowered

[glass harbor]

It’s a Columbus building

[frail monolith]

Perfect

[unique pivot]

That's a big sprite

Nice

Btw I need to learn drawing on phone

[frail monolith]

For me looks like a Lower Manhattan Hotel. But Perfect work

[old portal]

More representations of Brazilian buildings for the Rio de Janeiro Pack.
They should be released soon in the next update.

[uneven plover]

Looking awesome

Especially last pic

[uneven plover]

I cant find the hamam I talked about it is not really famous but this is a castle in my city

Your plugin dont have cylinders but no problem

[unique pivot]

Hm that color looks similar to that rtobys wall

I can make a castle tower

[unique pivot]

The second reminds me of kekman citadel tower or whatever it's called

Idk why

[old portal]

Can you send me a picture of this tower?

[uneven plover]

It remind me ponte tower at south africe but roof looks like the ingame cylinder tower's design

[versed pike]

Wow they looks amazing

[uneven plover]

But ponte is more lifeless and scary

Looking like a huge concrete wall chimney where people lives in it

[old portal]

This is the real building

[uneven plover]

This sure looks more modern I really like how you made the windows

[old portal]

Thanks!

[uneven plover]

Bernardo do you use mobile or pc to draw those?

[old portal]

Mobile

[uneven plover]

Wow

You have a big tablet or something lol

[old portal]

No

[uneven plover]

I cant even use mobile keyboard, you might notice it already lol

[old portal]

Lol

[versed pike]

I wonder how the people draw these buildings in mobile, im too lazy to do that

I do them in PC

[uneven plover]

but imo

The people who uses mobile for pixel art makes more details unlike pc users

Examples are bernardo and rockfort

But examples are less too since it is also hard to use mobile pixel art

Soo if you do you do it awesome if cant not really

[frozen aurora]

I'm worried that the tower's proportions are a bit off

We'll see how it looks once completed tho

[uneven plover]

Looking nice, some international buildings to blend in big districts

[unique pivot]

Well I would like to disagree but then I realized I don't make much details myself

I think this is more of a skill thing

For me drawing on pc is more comfortable

[uneven plover]

I dont mean pc users dont make details but if mobile users can use it and if they are good it is always looking awesome

[unique pivot]

I am too lazy to even learn drawing good in pixly

Well yeah

Btw Yusuf I will add canyon outlines

I didn't forget

And nasus suggestions too

[uneven plover]

Great

[unique pivot]

Also I can use your outline idea for other stuff

Like pipes or fences on roof

That would be awesome for customizable roof deco

I should've thought of that before

So you can draw like this

Man, I can make walls with transparent windows

And props to place inside buildings

Like landscape tiles so you can make them under roofs

Gosh that would be awesome

A great opportunity for details

You can actually make stuff inside your building

Hope I won't use too many drafts, already should have a ton to load

But I get so many ideas

[frozen aurora]

Ok, once the LeVeque Tower is finished, I'm gonna do the Rhodes State Office Building

[glass harbor]

L

K

[rain gate]

School remastered!

[chilly mango]

I still can't see anything but left and right twix factories

[rain gate]

No, in reality it's a school. Some schools in past used to have these chimneys in outside.

[chilly mango]

But yes nice building

[versed pike]

Looks good

[ember junco]

Awesome when will you release it

[rain gate]

Schools like this but I never understood the reason for these chimneys. it was very common in stores too...

[rain gate]

Thanks. 🙂

[rain gate]

Thanks. 🙂

[rain gate]

These chimneys had/have heating purposes (they are probably part of an underground boiler that produces heat for the entire building). The same happened with several art deco buildings during the 1920s (you can notice buildings and skyscrapers with chimneys in cities like New York and Chicago).

Thanks for information. :)

You're welcome.

[frozen aurora]

Ok, I might have to restart the LeVeque Tower, it's kinda disproportionate and it's a little frustrating, the project may be postponed and I might start the Rhodes State Office Building and maybe another building before I try and remaster the LeVeque.

[glass harbor]

Okay

You should make buildings in Dayton Ohio, they don’t have Many and they are also

Box like

[vagrant echo]

Anyone know any forum exclusive plugins? Thanks

[versed pike]

https://forum.theotown.com/viewforum.php?f=43

@vagrant echo

[vagrant echo]

Thanks!

[versed pike]

Enough for today

[unique pivot]

added straight roofs

imma fix a thing now...

I am redoing this part because it's a conical failure

[versed pike]

Wow that looks hard to do

[sharp kettle]

looks like a builsing for a terrorist base i like it

[unique pivot]

it was wrong

and I fixed

lol

I should make an entrance covered in bricks and rubble

I am not sure how do I correctly put stripes on this

[uneven plover]

What tha

[unique pivot]

gotta fix some ordering for rotation awareness

(and by fixing ordering I mean randomly changing it until it works)

is there any way to specify 2 frames per rotation?

@uneven plover do you know?

[cloud cedar]

What plugin is for the cranes?

[unique pivot]

bruh

fixed

now I need to add X connection

and "wide" parts

then join all parts into one file and that's all

I can go full copypaste

[unique pivot]

adding wide slopes

[rich birch]

a lighthouse and a seabus ,Coming soon

[uneven plover]

It might be order or smth cant really remember

[unique pivot]

I fixed already

[uneven plover]

bruh I had plans to use seabus 😭

[unique pivot]

thank god it was the ordering

[uneven plover]

But okay you can use it akunbaru

[unique pivot]

otherwise I would've been fcked

I wish I had inspiration to create so many plugins like akunbaru

[rich birch]

Really ? Then I'll delete the seabus plugin and just release the lighthouse later

[rich birch]

Can I see your plan?

[uneven plover]

Yep with making a port for it but you can use it, I wanna ask if seabus will spawn from light house because that kinda not realistic

I have a port but it is ugly and old

[unique pivot]

do a collab

lmao

[rich birch]

No... The seabus comes from the seabus itself (just like the rjroldan ferry) but if you make a special port for that seabus... THAT'S A GREAT Idea

[unique pivot]

I am actually going to add these roofs and mcdonalds logo

[uneven plover]

I made that sea bus texture actually

Gave it to pounkiller soo he can add it to ship plugin

[rich birch]

Yes then I will remove the seabus plugin package from the plugin store and leave it to you

[unique pivot]

I remember it from marytime pack or how do I even say that

[rich birch]

I'm sorry if I make you mind🙏

[uneven plover]

I think you should add a small boat for light house rather than a sea bus too

[unique pivot]

I should've made up this name

ah, so that's the pounkiller plugin

with your seabus

[uneven plover]

It also have istanbul ferries

[unique pivot]

I don't understand why is there titanic joke in ferry description

[uneven plover]

We had a discord server for turks in gold ages of plugin making good old times

[unique pivot]

imagine naming files

I wish I could've born a bit earlier

[uneven plover]

I was thinking to update the old ferry plugin on plugin store by me adding this to it and fixing texture bugs

If I can ever sit on computers chair

[unique pivot]

each day my test world becomes even more chaotic

2b2t

[uneven plover]

My first plugin in store

[unique pivot]

I just started plugin creating recently

what are the reports?

[uneven plover]

Lol they are useless

You have some?

[unique pivot]

no

I just wonder who would report ferry pack

and why

[uneven plover]

Recently I cant really see reports

They probably removed it?

[unique pivot]

idk

[unique pivot]

void is now a house

[uneven plover]

Just this, people spamming sexual in reports

[unique pivot]

lmfao

[uneven plover]

I have like 20 reports and 17 of them are sexual

Hopefully devs removed this

[unique pivot]

should've not calculated cords myself

rotation magic

red triangle roof copy copy (2) copy copy copy.json - notepad

wtf

this works! and it's rotation aware

just need to fix some textures

[subtle pier]

That looks really good

[unique pivot]

thanks

[cloud cedar]

Damn they be jealous doe

[unique pivot]

@chilly mango

@hybrid sedge

umm

[chilly mango]

It's gone

[unique pivot]

good

anyway

rate my depressed pizzahut

I need to make a dark brick wall

like this

[uneven plover]

And bigger Windows

[unique pivot]

@uneven plover

[uneven plover]

can we have windows like this image too?

[unique pivot]

yes

1 second

also I can add rtobby style windows

[uneven plover]

but add depth to it like rockfort's building

[unique pivot]

wdym

how

[uneven plover]

this is by rockfort, he added some black outlines for empty places

[unique pivot]

I can add wall with outline in it ofc

[uneven plover]

this

[unique pivot]

oh this?

I know I was going to add this anyway

[chilly mango]

That's to make the windows look inset in the building

Rather it being exactly the same spot

[unique pivot]

yeah, I know

this should work

[uneven plover]

yes soo much better

[unique pivot]

I need to lower the right one a bit

[orchid sorrel]

move it one pixel down and one pixel right

so it's ♥️ consistent ♥️

[uneven plover]

wait

kulche how does speed works for animations?

like what the numbers mean mason

big number is slower right?

[orchid sorrel]

no

the bigger it is the faster it goes

[uneven plover]

oh wow

okay

thank you

[orchid sorrel]

np

[unique pivot]

bruh

imma move it again

[orchid sorrel]

what's wrong with it?

[uneven plover]

middle soo empty?

[unique pivot]

the firts one is 1 pixel away from edge

second one is 0

@uneven ploverwhat do you think?

[uneven plover]

looking nice

[sudden minnow]

what

thats cool

[unique pivot]

oh. I forgot one small thing

[sudden minnow]

I should get back to drawing

[unique pivot]

this building wasn't drawn entirely

I just built it

don't mind me for doing this again

when I release the addon

I'll make a district of amogus shaped builds

[uneven plover]

holy cow I lost my animation codes again

[unique pivot]

I need to add some stuff for airport terminals

it would be useful

with inclined roofs especially

[uneven plover]

nice if you had road decos for roofs 😳

[unique pivot]

@uneven plover can I ask you to draw (not now but soon probably) warehouse roofs like this?

you're just very good at it as i remember

I will add some walls with inclined tops probably

[uneven plover]

I am not super good, I can try but read my bio

[unique pivot]

hehe alright

finish code ❌

pyramid ✅

[uneven plover]

ian big brain adding save slots for anim dev tool

[unique pivot]

just realised I could have another way to add this thing

like split it in half, and give it brighter/darker colors on two sides

should I do it or leave like that?

or make as variation

[rich birch]

ok since you are going to plan to manage it then i will remove this seabus plugin. . goodbye seabus plugin, now this seabus is redirected to you yusuf :) 🙏

[uneven plover]

ohh

stop

if you used it on a plugin before I dont want you to remove it

because people payed for it, it can stay

[rich birch]

Thank you yusuf 🙏
But if you manage the seabus plugin, i will help you (if you want)

[uneven plover]

yep thank you

nice plugins btw I like heli port and medieval port

[unique pivot]

I think I am going to finish my modular build pack before any other plugins

I don't have major things to draw

Just adding new assets by modifying already existing ones

And simple props

[rich birch]

Has your helicopter project been successful?

@unique pivot Come on simon release this plugin when the roof project is ready you have to release it I can't wait 😁😆

[uneven plover]

yep I used your heli port pixel height and divide it to 20 and then used number 8 to divide 375 I found 46ish number and it worked. Only that it was miss alligned to right 11 pixels soo I used handle x 11

[unique pivot]

I want to add some walls and roofs, and then several variants/colors of triangle roofs

Then "rooms" and some simpler props to place inside or outside

[rich birch]

Great, Btw how about your industrial plugin "excavator" which is like a big miner's drill?

[unique pivot]

I also wanted to make transparent walls on roofs

So it's like actual glass

[rich birch]

Sounds interesting

[unique pivot]

And you will be able to customize the insides of your build

[uneven plover]

lol I was going to use it for steel mill plugin but I cant really work on lua, maybe after I went to university

[unique pivot]

Like mall or shop

Or railroad station

Btw nasus already used it for one of his stations I think

I may add railroad-tall walls

Most of stuff will be quick

I already have the code

I can just paint a small fence texture and then just change the code in seconds

[uneven plover]

you have road deco roofs?

[rich birch]

I mean this one 😅

[rich birch]

Yes, finally I can design malls and stations in more detail

[uneven plover]

yep I know, it was going to mine coal for steel mill but I cant really try to understand lua

[fickle frigate]

My new record : 3300 downloads in a day

[uneven plover]

nice

[rich birch]

Yes, I also don't understand lua... Never mind lua, I'm just confused about making the animation (let alone pasting it)

[uneven plover]

lol

[rich birch]

Can you put the pagoda package together with the 10-story pagoda tower? Please

[craggy kite]

Hi

[uneven plover]

hello artem

are you the guy who made russian buildings on forum?

[craggy kite]

Probably :/

[fickle frigate]

In the pagoda packet, there is already a similar tower

[unique pivot]

I thought of adding these decorative parked cars, stalls, maybe other stuff

Nasus used these walls to outline elevated rails or something

You can't build fences on railway, that's a problem

[rich birch]

What other plugins are you planning anhkatori ? Can I suggest a vietnamese ships plugin?? (It's okay for decoration only)

[unique pivot]

But you can use it with existing railroad station plugins

And decorate front wall/entrance

[fickle frigate]

It is hard to me to draw small plugins :((

[fickle frigate]

I am remaking one of my old plugin

[rich birch]

What application do you use to create the plugin?

[unique pivot]

my plugin is probably the first one with random night lights on a fence

[rich birch]

Oh then, can you remake the vietnam bank tower plugin (the twin ones)

[unique pivot]

Ahkatori has pretty cool plugins btw

[unique pivot]

Also, I think my plugin is pretty useful because you can make humongous buildings without wasting more plugin space

[rich birch]

Finally there is also a recycle plugin with power generator (1 building has 2 functions)

[fickle frigate]

The Katori condotel

[unique pivot]

Soon I can release additional wall assets for my modular build plugin

Thats cool

[rich birch]

Finally the tower I'm looking for is coming soon

[fickle frigate]

Yes, i will remake it soon

[fickle frigate]

I use Photoshop

[rich birch]

Yay, ok good night everyone

[uneven plover]

good night

[frail monolith]

Gn

[unique pivot]

too grey

I need to make another thing I think

hope it won't need much code

[unique pivot]

stacked floors

[glass harbor]

Could you make American restaurants?

[unique pivot]

what do you mean?

I planned to make mcdonalds roof

but I am not sure what did you mean in the context of modular building

moved all roof stuff into one file

[unique pivot]

I made blank white roof texture

the color is a bit extreme, though

I just randomly typed it

just need to fix one thing

[glass harbor]

No like could you make an American restaurant pack like not a modular building.

[unique pivot]

I was actually thinking about it

but then I realised I live too far from US

and I don't know more american restaurants than mcdonalds, KFC, pizza huts and stuff

and some chick a fils but I just saw these names once

[glass harbor]

Okay well since I live in Ohio I could tell you

McDonald’s Wendy’s KFC chick fil a Burger King sub way sonic popies Arby’s

[unique pivot]

k

I'll try finding pictures for them soon

[glass harbor]

Those are just a few

[unique pivot]

I am kinda busy now

[glass harbor]

Google maps do you have it ?

[glass harbor]

Ik I wasn’t asking if you could do it now but I was wondering if you could like in the future.

[unique pivot]

yes but I don't know how much do I need to travel across US to find some

probably a good idea tho

[glass harbor]

Google maps

[unique pivot]

yeah I may do it in future

I have google maps

[glass harbor]

You don’t need to travel clear across the United States

Lmao

[unique pivot]

I was joking

[glass harbor]

Oh lol

[unique pivot]

talking serious it wouldn't be hard to find them probably

[glass harbor]

Mhm I see

I’d totally make them I just have no clue I how to make plugins.

Like I do but not draw them

[unique pivot]

okay

native english speakers here, please tell me if something is wrong

[glass harbor]

English isn’t the only thing I speak, I also speak marrian

It’s like every language that we we created mix together

[versed pike]

Guys, i upload my plugins on the forum in the case You want them for free

[unique pivot]

I know I just asked for all people that speak English good to verify this naming

[sick rune]

Can we add custom tips to the loading screens? I don't remember whether this is possible, but maybe someone else does

[livid agate]

No, that is not possible

[sick rune]

Okay, that's what I thought

Thank you

[storm flower]

Ngl the parking plug in I hsve is quite good

[rich birch]

is the texture good now??

[sudden minnow]

That looks good to me

[versed pike]

Finishing roof, but i think are something bad in the proportions :s

[versed pike]

Guys is there a line tool for those waterfront walls?

[next pendant]

Yes there's one recently

In forum

You can search for it

[versed pike]

i need that thing, someone created a thread with that plugin but got deleted

[versed pike]

I never saw these plugins, what are they name?

Should put the building in a
A: 4x4 lot
or
B: 3x3 lot?

[uneven plover]

Lol is that even theotown? Roads are soo different

Looks like simcity 3k

[versed pike]

i checked the link of the image and not, is another game

[uneven plover]

Lobby and theo did take some of simcity game buildings designs

But not direct copy

[midnight obsidian]

That soviet rural brick houses plugin looks stolen to me

[unique pivot]

before

after

is this a good change?

[leaden cobalt]

indeed

[uneven plover]

Nice roofs

[versed pike]

[unique pivot]

should I add inverse wide corners? this can be useful for complex builds but -128x21 texture space

[worn plinth]

Is there already a plugin like this?

[rain gate]

yeah that would be nice

[rich birch]

@keen helm I think one of your trains has a bug like the one in this post, I hope you fix this bug soon

[unique pivot]

def not a rotated frame

hehe

[keen helm]

Oh

Aint supposed to happen

[unique pivot]

I hate this

how

why tf is it a car

a flying car

[midnight obsidian]

VOID

[uneven plover]

You cant fix it

It is like that for every car you can drive

[chilly mango]

trains are just cars that are resticted to rails

manually driving them ignores those restrictions

[rain gate]

Please give me this texture I make Mitsubishi dealership

Someone please give the texture of concrete

[sharp kettle]

Its.. avaible on world texture

(On forum)

[rain gate]

Thank you!

[uneven plover]

This hurts my feelings, ı spent more time on landmark than office dresdner platz

Maybe it has a possible error 😔

[unique pivot]

Dude you got featured at least

I wish I could too

[uneven plover]

Yes thats nice but when we were testing the plugin with Kyo he had an error than it suddenly disappeared and he used it normal

[blazing stone]

Gyeongju tower, Korea's landmark

[old portal]

Rio de Janeiro Pack Update:
(2 new buildings)

[uneven plover]

those are looking awesome

[unique pivot]

I agree

donut

[old portal]

Thanks, guys!

[unique pivot]

I counted 5 amogus builds in my test city

[versed pike]

That looks beautifull, how much buildings that pack will include?

[old portal]

With this update 15 buildings

But my target is more than 30

[uneven plover]

almost enough to create a new game with it

[unique pivot]

me who got 50+ buildings in a pack

[uneven plover]

I mean enough for residential

[unique pivot]

ahkatori straight up conquered gallery

I just realised that

[uneven plover]

yep

and fourth image has your building

[unique pivot]

yeah

that's so cool

I feel like I'll be seeing your tower somewhere too soon

[uneven plover]

I dont have that feeling lol

[unique pivot]

it's pretty cool and even got on featured tab

so why not

I wonder if did I forget anything again

[uneven plover]

I guess the reason ahkatori's stuff is on gallery too many is how he is fast about making plugins

[unique pivot]

oh, ordering and lighting

yeah I wish I was such successful

but he has monster speed

and I am slow + making larger plugins

[storm raft]

@uneven plover dont be down for me this is the best plugin you made so far

[unique pivot]

I'll probably finish modular build before august starts

[uneven plover]

thank you

[unique pivot]

holup

it's august

half of summer passed alreadyb

bruh

And I didn't do anything worthy

[uneven plover]

same, today went too fast to me

it is night time already

[unique pivot]

20:20 for me

[uneven plover]

we are in the same time zones, I am from Turkey and you are from russia

you are from Russia right?

[unique pivot]

yes

why is lighting here in first place

I don't remember it matching with anything

oh nvm

that's because I just mirrored the frame

I think I am ready for copy paste and new variations

writing color by myself, I wonder how will it look

[unique pivot]

well what else could I expect

[uneven plover]

I am going to play ian's tool

[unique pivot]

speedrun it

[slender briar]

and i hate it ngl

[unique pivot]

Well his plugins are kinda cool, though

[slender briar]

semi

but one thing ticks me off

they're blurry and probably taken from somewhere

or poorly made

in theory they're good but his technique is either crap or the buildings are just taken from somewhere

good yes but you can see the underdetailing in the base and the blurryness

didn't even bother to at least make the trees on the top on the right different they're just copy pasted

again only complaint i have is how some places are underdetailed and overal blurry look

structure is great

and another scary side is the monopoly it has

his buildings are everywhere and it feels like you can't get in

[unique pivot]

Didn't use his plugins much because I am saving for nothing and I don't need skyscrapers now

Yeah base looks kinda weird

I don't see that trees are fully identical

But some are repeating

And I can't say about blurryness because the whole image is blurry and as I said I didn't use the plugin myself

[slender briar]

no i looked up close they blurry af in game

[unique pivot]

But even if you think, even the base/entrance of my own plugin is a bit lame

[unique pivot]

Huh I'll check in game

[slender briar]

could be better but at least it has hints of it being the base

kathori's plugins just end at the ground they don't start from it

[unique pivot]

well I made it like "wait I don't have a door"

Don't remember his other plugins but yeah this one base is honestly a bit weird

[unique pivot]

May update it but just don't know what to add, looks ok

I should update the connections

[midnight obsidian]

man

i sure do create plugins slowly

but quality over quantity, that's what's important

[unique pivot]

I agree

[slender briar]

weird shape experiment

[unique pivot]

I hope my modular build megapack will get popular

[frozen aurora]

I've been very quiet lately since I last updated y'all, so here's some progress that I've made on the Rhodes State Office Tower

That's about as tall as the building will be

It's the tallest building in Columbus and the 5th tallest in Ohio

[unique pivot]

I don't want to sound too optimistic or selfish but I think that pack of mine got potential

[unique pivot]

Nice

[unique pivot]

New Яндекс HQ?

[frozen aurora]

The building also plays home to 4,000 government employees of the State of Ohio and was the host of the Ohio State Supreme Court for a while

[unique pivot]

The shape is cool btw but yeah slightly unusual for a building

[slender briar]

nah just a weird thing i drew that i tried to make into pixel art

[frozen aurora]

The building is somewhat easier than the LeVeque Tower, but I promise that my Columbus project will not be completed until after the LeVeque Tower is complete

I'll do the LeVeque last

[slender briar]

some almost midnight horrible looking random sketches

[frozen aurora]

Also, should I release the buildings separately or all in one pack?

[unique pivot]

I know I am getting annoying but will you make it with animations?

To stack floors

[frozen aurora]

To make it taller or smaller?

[unique pivot]

To save plugin space

But you can do that too if you want

[frozen aurora]

I see

[unique pivot]

Well the texture is very cool but it's repetitive

It's not bad or something

I mean using animations for this will be very effective

[frozen aurora]

Yeah, it's a very repetitive building

[unique pivot]

I like how this building looks

[frozen aurora]

Nothing that really stands out except for it being the tallest.

This is the building IRL

I wanna do this building next

[frail monolith]

Looks like a Shibuya Tower to me

[frozen aurora]

Just around the corner

[unique pivot]

Yours looks taller

But I like it like that tbh

[glass harbor]

after columbus could you make buildings from dayton ohio?, i think they are not hard. idk tho

[frozen aurora]

The Google earth thing is zoomed way out so....

[frozen aurora]

Maybe

[glass harbor]

columbus's skyline is hot af

[versed pike]

I think i will make this building soon:

https://s3-sa-east-1.amazonaws.com/modernabuenosaires/img/obras/galeria/253_1415803588.jpg

[low geode]

Im thinking of making a plugin and i need some help

No one?

[versed pike]

i can help you

look this

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=knoyT3w9Fn0&ab_channel=LouiL

@low geode

also if you have doubts i can help you

[low geode]

Alright

Im considering making the stark tower

Maybe avengers

[frozen aurora]

It is cool, and i get to go to Columbus soon, not the downtown tho, rather the state fairgrounds

[glass harbor]

Oh

Cool

[frozen aurora]

Currently decreasing the spacing between the windows on the Rhodes State Office Building since it does look a little tall.

Each window is 4px tall with 4px spacing

So I'm making the spacing 3px now

Maybe it'll look a bit better now

[glass harbor]

Oh okay

[frozen aurora]

Ok, so is it possible that i can make the building I'm creating a commercial office tower but then give it a government influence as well because it is a government building?

[lilac shuttle]

Do dev tool automatically define x n y for you for animation light animation

Once you put in building ID

Like so

Plz

[frozen aurora]

Ok, another question, so how do I get my plugin into Theotown on Android cause the plugin folder under the Theotown folder is gone?

Cause there used to be a plugin folder inside of this

And id really like to test the plugin before releasing

[glass harbor]

That happend to me on my old phone

[old portal]

National Capitol of Colombia (Work in Progress) this building will be part of the administrative buildings pack.

[frozen aurora]

Finished resizing stuff

[lilac shuttle]

Is lua hard to write

For night animation

Pls

[orchid sorrel]

depends what do you want to do with it

[agile forum]

Files

TheoTown files are located under such directories:

▪︎ Windows: C:\Users\(insert username)\TheoTown
▪︎ Linux: /home/$USER/TheoTown
▪︎ MacOS: /user/TheoTown
▪︎ Android: /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/info.flowersoft.theotown.theotown/files
Reinstalling the game for Android will delete all files, unless you decide to keep the files when prompted by uninstaller.

[urban grove]

@glass harbor @frozen aurora

[rain gate]

Alas

[uneven plover]

You dont need lua for night animation sir

[orchid sorrel]

you need lua if you want the lights to eg. change colors

json is for static only

[uneven plover]

Sad momento

I have 86 rating now 😔 it is going down... Maybe I should make this plugin OP

[midnight obsidian]

Just change the texture to be a bright blue skyscraper

[uneven plover]

For cylinder part?

[chilly mango]

Don't forget to make it really tall

Call it the tallest building

[midnight obsidian]

Just make the whole building a bright blue box

[chilly mango]

Yeye

[uneven plover]

Oh lol

[midnight obsidian]

Protip: don't use animations

[chilly mango]

Easy first place for the month

Saving texture space is for losers

[urban grove]

I don't like the green on the building

[chilly mango]

If they don't have the space they're not worthy of your plugin

[midnight obsidian]

And for night animations, make it just a single color texture that spans through the whole building

[uneven plover]

Ahh

Vertical garden

@chilly mango can I make an upgrade to remove night animations

[midnight obsidian]

Make sure to also forget the shadows

[uneven plover]

Soo like I make the vertical garden an upgrade of building and once it is upgraded it lost some of night animations

[chilly mango]

Theotown files have moved recently

[uneven plover]

Bruh

[lilac shuttle]

I was just asking bc what I saw on forum n what I got from using dev animation tool from forum

Also I forgot how to write json for night animation

[unique pivot]

just realised I used red frame instead of white

and that's why color tag didn't work correctly

now i got too bright colors but they look kinda nice

why are they like this tho

ah I am missing a part of the image

[unique pivot]

I wanted to make black roof with white outline

but I think it already looks cool

but without it I'll have only color variations

[unique pivot]

I love this

@fickle frigate did you use someone's else texture for this?

[fickle frigate]

I edited the glass of a 4x4 skycrapter in world texture

[unique pivot]

ah ok

it explains why it's a bit blurry

but actually you might've opened it incorrectly cus world texture isn't supposed to be blurry

[fickle frigate]

In photoshop, resizing the texture may make it blurry.
And i also used the anti- alias function, which made the lines blurer a bit.

[uneven plover]

Yes shades on roof lines, I also do that

[uneven plover]

It is probably one world trade center

[unique pivot]

he said it's world texture

[uneven plover]

Yep it is in world texture

[fickle frigate]

No, it is the tall 4x4 commercial building.

[uneven plover]

Oh wow

I thoughy one world trade center was in game

[uneven plover]

I didnt use any animations for skyscraper 😳 lol I dont want to waste time on something that people dont care mostly, talking about general plugin users

[midnight obsidian]

i just made a private plugin for myself 😳

[uneven plover]

But! I did all the night anim one by one

Custom night anims very small and painfull

[midnight obsidian]

i ripped off some cars from the world texture, recolored them and made as a road deco

crap

i just wanted to have a single car

bruh

and they're not even sideways parked

i guess this is better

this is better though

[uneven plover]

Huh

Road side parkings?

[midnight obsidian]

yes

as i said, it's private though

[frozen aurora]

Thanks

[midnight obsidian]

gotta fix the blue vehicle at the top

ok fixed

[unique pivot]

Why not upload it though

Even if it's not that complex

[uneven plover]

It is a good plugin, release

I have came to a thought that I wont make plugins for community but my likes

[midnight obsidian]

i feel like it's way too low effort to be included on the plugin store

i literally made this in like an hour

[unique pivot]

It still may be useful for someone

I would post it

[cloud cedar]

I really need f—king parked cars on the side of the roads tbh

[lilac shuttle]

Can someone help me pls when they get a chance

[sharp kettle]

?

[unique pivot]

what's the problem you need help with?

[lilac shuttle]

I forgot how to write json for night animation

For this plugin

Also is this right

[sharp kettle]

Oh.. i dont use ian night animator plugin

[lilac shuttle]

[slender briar]

do the people want kekman to release something today

[low geode]

anyone have a traffic limit plugin or know?

[sharp dawn]

@slender briar pLz ReLeAsE bUrJ KhAliFa ToWeR !

[unique pivot]

he has burj khalifa or it's a local meme?

[torpid vapor]

DrRoqueForbrizol greetings from a hot south coastGB, Dorset probably 80 miles from Cherbourg! Enjoying your work!

[lilac shuttle]

Where is kekman

[slender briar]

here

[lilac shuttle]

Oh u change names

[unique pivot]

I figured out adding buttons to sidebar

I just wonder why is there two of them

[chilly mango]

Probably as you reloaded your script

Where do you add the button

In on city enter?

[unique pivot]

I never believed I would use this

@chilly mangoyeah reloaded probably

I have reloading script (def not copied) and icon script is not stolen too

is adding your own icon possible? just curious

[orchid sorrel]

yes, you can add your own icons

[chilly mango]

yes

theyre simply frames

[orchid sorrel]

I usually define an animation and then assign it as a draft

don't forget to get the first frame

[chilly mango]

yeah making animation drafts and using that is the easiest

[sharp dawn]

Yeah the Burj Khalifa plugin is a joke / local plugin maker meme

[chilly mango]

i use preview frames in some bits too

but nah

[unique pivot]

I made a sidebar button which opens a dialog

I am genius of programming

https://tenor.com/view/hacker-pc-meme-matrix-codes-gif-16730883

Can you make a game on it?

[orchid sorrel]

if you have the nerves, yes

for me gui is usually "I want to commit arson so bad"

have fun

[unique pivot]

@chilly mango hey, sorry for ping, but do you know how to make root closing function?

[chilly mango]

@livid agate fuck you

anyways

where was i

[livid agate]

?

[chilly mango]

what do you mean

[chilly mango]

my nickname

[unique pivot]

this bad boy

so i can close my window

[chilly mango]

set

closeable = true, -- Show close button, true by default

[livid agate]

its true though

[chilly mango]

ok

still accepted tho

[unique pivot]

wait

[low geode]

whats poppin?

[unique pivot]

with what exactly should I create roof object, @chilly mango?

[livid agate]

That's unrelated to this channel, war machine

[chilly mango]

uh

you use GUI.createdialog right?

[livid agate]

It's not good either

6 commits for a PR

[chilly mango]

its fine

you can squash that

[unique pivot]

I made "panel" at first

but then realised

it's not what I am looking for (probably)

I just want a fat window where I can place widgets

buttons, text fields and stuff
