@kid1293 This set really looks great.  I just happen to have a lot of stone just lying around on the currant map so I'm just going to have to give these a try right away.  Thank you for another great set.

Thank you very much @kid1293 this means a lot to me.  Late now but hopefully get some gaming in this weekend and will be able to build up a little settlement :)  Thank you again. :)

@kid1293 the stone houses are very nice, look great.  I tried to build the town hall but game froze up both during building and when complete.  My guess is because of new 1.0.7 limits, my game still 1.0.6.   Other than that, so far so good.  :)

Calling in 'advisors' !!!

Can anything be added to this mod?
I know school/blacksmith/tailor/baker/market and all that.
I like the style of the buildings and it can maybe stand alone
and not only be an addon.
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: kid1293 on June 11, 2017, 12:59:14 AM
Well, I have tested to add some ivy texture to the chapel walls.
Opinions?

Looks great to me.
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: Abandoned on June 11, 2017, 03:55:52 AM
Looks good to me too.   :)  The ivy is part of the texture not a separate deco piece, right?  Lighter green wouldn't look as good in winter, this is nice older weathered look to it.  The wall is new, is that cemetery only or a separate deco wall also?  That texture would look good on a 2 story tower house or lighthouse maybe.
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: kid1293 on June 11, 2017, 05:25:01 AM
The ivy is tweaked into place on every piece so it will not be separate.
The wall will be cemetery and separate pieces.
Not ghosted though, a wall is a wall.

I like towers. :)
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: Abandoned on June 11, 2017, 12:20:12 PM
Maybe a few of the separate piece walls could be crumbling old broken stone wall pieces.  :-\

:D I wish, I wish but I thought that if I release this people are going to want ghosted walls.
So, in my solitary eagerness, I made with/without ivy and ghosted with/without ivy.
With crumbling walls there would be even more. I don't want this mod to be - That Wall
I'm still puzzling the code for ghosted wall together.

But I thank you, @Abandoned ,for caring.  :)
If anything I would like a tower, but I'm a long way off from starting that.
And I don't know what to do with it.
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: Abandoned on June 11, 2017, 08:36:19 PM
With or without ivy sounds good.  Maybe a few ghosted deco tombstones.  I hope the ghosting wall is going well, you don't sound like you are in a happy mood.

Had a terrible night. Shift-delete on a whole group of files.
When I tried to recreate I should copy and edit.
Accidently I moved a bunch of files and edited.
It wasn't until I should compile I found out that many files
were missing. So back to more editing.


It's working for now but I am not happy with the direction of it all.
I have - cemetery/ivy cemetery/fenceless cemetery.
Freestanding fence/ivy fence/ghosted fence/ghosted ivy fence.
All because I wanted to learn how to make a cemetery.
And the model is not very funny.  ;D One can only laugh.


I made a school building. When finished I found out that it looked
almost like the chapel. What a bummer! All that work.


I think it will not make it into stand-alone. It is a disaster zone for
mutated buildings. :) So it will always be an addon.

@kid1293 the stone houses are very nice, look great. You surprised me there is also a spa. Thanks a lot. Chapel +chapel walls -Looks good to me too. With or without ivy is also nice. If the chapel  - cross to the roof or the small bell towers will be fine. The school and the chapel will be different . Do not worry too much is Ok :D
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: kid1293 on June 11, 2017, 11:57:44 PM

Thanks!


...and @taniu , a small bell tower on the chapel is great.
It will take my mind away from the cemetery for a while.
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: embx61 on June 12, 2017, 12:00:12 AM
Yeah, that is what I do.

I work on some more stuff then just one at the same time so I can switch between them a bit if I get bored/frustrated with the current one.
It can be a sore to keep working on the same stuff over and over.

Here is the idea from @taniu
I think it works very well.
Now I will put a f-key variant of school with ivy.

Edit --- school is done.

@ kid1293 . Ok. :) Cool screenshots . Or maybe a cross ? I send some photos of wooden churches, maybe something to choose from for your idea?- "Forest Outpost ", "Rowhouses", "Colonial","HouseBoat" - wonderful mods, I often play with them.
Thank you, I am very happy that they are wonderful homes, a small chapel, a sauna, and many wonderful extras . . Cheers :D

@Abandoned - Sorry for closing my doors.

I told you I like towers. Shhh, don't tell. It's a secret. 8)

And yes, I feel much better. Some sleep and good food.
Are going for a walk now, will continue modding this afternoon.
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1

Post by: kid1293 on June 13, 2017, 05:37:53 AM
Had a run of extreme luck, smooth and problemfree modding.

I can share the secret with you. I decided to do something with
Ghost House technology I was testing in another thread. (I like that name)  ;D
And I do like towers. :)

That 6-storey building in the background consists of 6 separate apartments.
Only the bottom floor has a footprint. The rest are ghosted.

Later I will AO-map the 'towers' and test some more.

Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: Abandoned on June 13, 2017, 07:46:30 AM
oh my gosh @kid1293 look at those towers and for more than 1 family, fantastic and I see 3 textures that really blend in so well with the other buildings.  :) good job
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: kid1293 on June 13, 2017, 12:22:54 PM
And the textures look even better now.

Some people don't know what I mean with AO-mapping.
Ambient Occlusion. A kind of shadowing.

Take a look at the example. You can clearly see the difference in the textures on the towers.
With AO they are more distinct and 'present'.
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: Abandoned on June 13, 2017, 02:03:12 PM
@kid1293 I can see there is clearly a difference with the AO mapping, very nice  :)
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: Gatherer on June 13, 2017, 02:24:52 PM
Nice looking apartment blocks. With the church in the picture as height comparison it looks they are almost the same height as Red's 3-story houses.
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: kid1293 on June 13, 2017, 02:59:49 PM
Which one of them.  ;)
They come in all sizes. You build as high as you want.
Well, not really, I have only made 6 floors. But I can easily expand.

I see it as a test if I can build like this. It works without problems.
The bannies on the upper floors use the bottom door and the builders
stand on ground, but inside the bottom floor, when they build upper floors.

Each floor has a flat top version for building more and they also have
one roof version to stop if you want. Each has a demolish-button.
All comes with 3 textures, from other buildings in the mod.
You can use the bottom floor alone (with roof) and don't build upwards.

They are rather handy when you need to squeeze in a lot of people.
6 persons on each floor - 6 floors - 5x4 footprint.
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: Abandoned on June 13, 2017, 03:09:51 PM
The view must be nice from the upper floor balconies  :)

Post by: kid1293 on June 14, 2017, 10:53:16 PM
Thanks!
I will work now and then on them.
My plan is to add Smith, Tailor, Baker and Butcher as bottom floor buildings.
Then it's easy to add just another floor and have living place upstairs.
That will fit a smaller town.
Or add several floors to get a real city skyline. :)
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: Abandoned on June 15, 2017, 04:35:44 AM

If you knew me 15-20 years ago, you would have said - Don't you ever plan for anything?
That's all changed. Must be the Age of Maturity. ;D

Well, here's a quick build of the smith. To the left ready to be expanded upwards and
to the right the ground only version. I maybe put some crates in or something.
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: Abandoned on June 15, 2017, 07:09:43 AM
ya, that must be it  :)  The blacksmith level looks really good and the wood texture with that stone and roof is very nice.

Looks like a two-way-only communication. :)

The wheels keep turning.
Here is the tailor in two versions.
It produces vanilla and linen clothes.

I feel I'm running out of steam on this one.
I have no ideas for baker and butcher. Maybe I reuse the tailor model and
put something else in front...
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: embx61 on June 16, 2017, 02:26:06 AM
Nothing wrong with that Kid.

Lots of houses/buildings were build the same way, with the same materials, same layout, and still are today.
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: kid1293 on June 16, 2017, 02:52:04 AM
I know, just look at my rowhouses. :)

But I feel a bit down since I really need a second model to make another tower.
Now everything multiplies. with/without roof on every floor, different textures and all build stages.
It is growing so rapidly I don't think I want to make another tower.

I go slowly with the baker and the building is almost the same as tailor but I still
have to make it from scratch. Started to UV-map just a moment ago.
I can leave it with the restriction to build only one. That would take care of repetition.  :D
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: Abandoned on June 16, 2017, 05:13:30 AM
@kid1293 the tailor looks good , baker might be a bit tricky with oven but I'm sure you will work it out.  Don't feel down about it, there is no rush or deadline.  Take a break up on the roof balcony  :) it is a happy song.  Have a good day.
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: kid1293 on June 16, 2017, 06:06:11 AM

I have decided to pull long pipes, through the building,
from the baker to the chimney. :)


Just kidding, but who knows what the bannies come up with?
Some sort of central heating.  ;D
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: Abandoned on June 16, 2017, 06:10:27 AM
 :) central heating, there's a good thought, plus the smell of fresh bakery, nice.  However, need all those upper levels between roof balcony and noisy blacksmith.
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: kid1293 on June 16, 2017, 01:26:03 PM
After some setbacks with the code I have a working baker.
Now it is getting late and I want a whisky. :)

Night.


edit - I have prefixed everything in the new buildings with 'Tower'
I don't know what to call them. It was my first plan. To build a tower.
Maybe I figure out something better.

Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1

Added thought for this mod, maybe a lower level storage unit with crates or a cart.
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: kid1293 on June 17, 2017, 04:55:45 AM

@Abandoned  -  OK to PM.


Storage... For a while I thought of adding a ghosted underground storage.
But... where do you click to remove it?  ???


I had a late night thought about building a big market mall with place on the roof
for several towers. Also scrapped - too modern.
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: Abandoned on June 17, 2017, 05:07:32 AM
@kid1293 what about a separate lean-to storage unit to add to the side?  Rooftop market too modern and too unpeaceful  :( maybe a rooftop unit with a bigger balcony, a wood bench and a green plant or 2?  Maybe still too modern.
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: kid1293 on June 17, 2017, 05:17:07 AM

'Up on the roof' ?  ;)


That one can be done, but since I have 6 floors it has to be 6 rooftops.
I'll let it sink in. But I can not make bannies walk there.
Well, I can, but I need the same space at the bottom for work and producing stuff.

Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: Abandoned on June 17, 2017, 05:25:52 AM
oh, it can't be one rooftop fits all.  Okay if they can't walk there, it might get too crowded.  :)

@kid1293 The buildings are fantastic  :) u remember about "Ginger Baker" and "Xmas Mark".I have a question if these mods - update? Can you add something for little kids? Candy - after my time I made in a frying pan simple candy = oil or butter + sugar or another simple dish "kogel - mogel" = eggs + sugar can add cocoa or lemon juice. I think for kids, maybe fruit juices or desserts such as Fruits , Smoothies. This is my only suggestion. What about this idea? To these fantastic buildings add a little candy shop?  :)Cheers!
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: kid1293 on June 17, 2017, 06:26:31 AM
@taniu - You certainly push this idea with a lot of time 'til Christmas. :)
I'll see what I can do. I have another thing to do with that mod later.
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: ancientmuse on June 17, 2017, 02:22:33 PM
@kid1293

I like the idea of a market (just a ground one) so that we can build all of the other buildings around it... kind of like a nice little mid-sized central market for bannies to shop and chat with their neighbours.

I think that would pull it all nicely together.

:)
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: kid1293 on June 17, 2017, 03:02:58 PM
@ancientmuse - I'll see what I can come up with for a market.
It's only fair to give it a chance. It's the central point in many towns.
On to-do list. I work like a stubborn ant. One thing at the time.

Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: kid1293 on June 18, 2017, 05:09:04 AM
OK. To avoid overworking it, I can make a 2-storey ground floor boarding house. (With/without roof) :)
Should be easy. It's on that list I can't find. :)

Since you need another icon anway - why not multi-purpose?

Groundfloor - shop or tavern
first & (optional) second floor - boardinghouse(s)
3rd and up - more residences (if desired)...

:o

EDIT

Oops, I see you made up your mind already...

Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: kid1293 on June 18, 2017, 05:18:26 AM
Just my thought, I went out on the balcony to get some air.
(btw - you can rotate upper floors to place balcony front or back.)

I realized that it is all about space. I can not hi-jack more space
from ground, so up one it is.

Should the boarding house have only two floors? It is not much.
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: Abandoned on June 18, 2017, 05:25:00 AM
I would say not more than 2 because if you build it way before you have enough stone for stone high-rises, it would look out of place with the rest of the set.

Well, he's already planning with / without roof... so you can expand any time  :)


Kid, how many peeps can you put into each floor (boarding house)?
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: kid1293 on June 18, 2017, 09:22:33 AM
I haven't come there yet.
I have an slightly exaggerated 6  persons on each floor.
So it's only natural to have 10-12 persons.
That's one reason I asked for more than two floors.

Idea:
(sorry for the ascii drawing)

xxx
xxx
xxx
zzzzzz
zzzzzz

Where z = a wider base building and x = tower
edit - But I can have a freestanding boarding house if I want.

I'm totally into making a roof-top chill-out zone after Abandoned's idea.
Then I have some signs I should have done now.
Something with storage and making a nice hedge.

As I was reading through this post I noticed that you were talking about everything multiplying as you ad new floor types or buildings to your tower buildings. Instead of having each new type with two versions, one with roof and one without (for building upwards) why not make each new type without a rood and then ad a separate roof type that could be added to any building floor. Then you could have F key variants of the roofs creating different visual renditions of the same building.

Sorry @Kristahfer I can not do that. I need a chimney with smoke.
That must be attached to a residential home.
I have thought about it.
To be honest, I need a roof in 6 different heights too. Can not be changed in-game.
Add another texture and it multiplies.

Condos for rent

I guess I am walking into a dead end here. Condos does not fit Banished.
But it is all about having fun. And yes @Abandoned it is moving forward.

This is what I have been doing lately. The one to the right (on 5th floor) is reserved for
Mr. Red Ketchup. He said he was interested in a calm place in the shade. :)

Jokes aside (or maybe not) - I was very taken by the post by @Abandoned . Up on the roof
so I decided to make a spot for the bannies to relax. They deserve it.

Now back to solve the problem of getting many nomads into a small space.

Absolutely... I mean I'd be hard put to build those into a medieval or colonial scene...  :D ... but hey, mix that with the mission, mex fantasy and other choice pieces, and you could come up with a cool contemporary setting, maybe a mediterranian fishing village or such - thankfully without cars, too...  LOL

Post by: kid1293 on June 19, 2017, 02:46:52 PM
Or just one of them 6 floors high in the middle of nowhere.
Good for a laugh. We all need that.  ;)

Right now I have f-key variants of those roof-tops. No change in deco
but the edges matches the houses. A lot of wasted space/polygons and work
for only that. I will change that. So there will be only one roof-top to each floor.
This mod is growing larger so every saved resource is a plus.

@Paeng , I'm going for a two-storey ground floor building with an annex
to increase the limit. It will be 'standard' tower model with two versions.
With/without roof. Let's say 10-12 in tower plus another 8 in annex.
That could easily be (with a shoehorn) 20 nomads - 5 families of 4.
Is this reasonable?

edit - and @Paeng , did that crop field in the background belong to the city designer?  ;D ;D

I don't think a market should be built on ground floor of a tower.
So some kind of freestanding market/shop.

Then, maybe, I can go back and test hedges.

But first listen to the sounds of the night.
I hope you all have it nice out there. :)

I can confess, I belonged to those who thought;"Now he's gone totally crazy . These towers in Banished? No! At least not for me." But I must also confess, the result has turned out well. :) And maybe I will try to make a more contemporary settlement. Why not? Diversity is great! The possibilities unlimited. But if you make markets and boarding houses, please stay in the present (or at least recent past) and make an hotel and a supermarket. :) That would fit!

And @Abandoned, lightning bugs do exist here but are very rare. I've only seen some a few times in Sweden. Kid lives very much in the south and they might be more common there. It's closer to the continent and as I lived in Germany we regularly had some in our hedge.

@Nilla I was afraid no one would know what I was talking about.  When I was a child we had lightning bugs in the city but with pollution and chemicals and lights they died out.  But we have them again here in the country for a few months in summer and they are just magical.  At dusk they rise up from the natural areas and hedgerows twinkling like mini Christmas lights.  Any day now the crickets should start chirping.    :)

First - I never thought I could win anyone over for these 'Aventuras en el sol'.
They are a bit strange in Banished. But then we all start as gatherers and hunters.
Then CC with (almost) industrial revolution. So why not this?
After all it is a test if it's possible to build like this.

There is a problem with double-click. You never know when it happens.
There is no footprint so you can place hundreds of these ghosted floors
at the same spot. A bit crowded.
And you can not place them alone. They're totally invisible to the bannies.
They walk right through the buildings if placed on ground level.

Second - I go for hostel, but when I first saw the roof-tops I immediately thought 'hotel'.
Supermarket does not sound right. Everybody knows what a supermarket is today.
It is BIG. I don't think I can do that. 12x12 with a tower in each corner?
Not nice to have the neighbour looking over your shoulder all the time. :(

@kid1293 hotel would go well with this part of the set but maybe not so well with the original stone houses of this set and not with forest outpost this is addon to which has no boarding house either.  Vanilla doesn't go at all.

I was about to make a 'tower' version. Bottom large building.
One version with roof and one with a flat space to build up a tower or two.
But I'm slowly getting tired of making tower modules.
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1

And here is another one. The hostel.

This freestanding is rather nice.

I don't want more of this model. I go for an open market later, tomorrow, summer....

I take a break from buildings and concentrate on making a hedge. Not easy.
It can't be 20000 leaves.  :o It can't be all 'box' and square.  ???
I will test a thought I have. Testing is slow.
Must build and write code just to test a single piece.

Be well.

Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: embx61 on June 21, 2017, 05:39:42 AM
@kid1293

I once looked at Cossacks Mod at the Hedges part he had in it. (Fountain Mod)

The hedges are just a bent plain upside down U shape for the straight connect pieces. End pieces are at one side closed with a plain or both side closed if by it self. Then the texture is just a bunch of small leaves on a semi transparent texture.

You could just start with a box, delete the bottom, and chamfer the top sides so it becomes rounded just a bit to not make it look to blocky at top.
But you can also leave it square for nice trimmed hedges.
Add the semi transparent texture and that's it. For connector pieces just delete the two sides of the box, For end piece just delete one side of the box and so on.

They look pretty good for being low poly.
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1
Post by: kid1293 on June 21, 2017, 09:34:19 AM
Thanks.
I have to make end sides on all so I can have them both as freestanding
and on the cemetery. I have no separate endpiece.

Actually, I have been modelling and texturing all day (and I wanted a break)  ;)
I am trying a new approach. Three layers of 'boxes' with a random seed applied.
They become a little irregular and (I hope) the layers under will show through.
If this does not work I will try to smooth them into shape. And I can always try
different textures to see if density and size matters. Three layers and several
shapes means a lot to texture and later a lot to code. I'm persistent!

Your word keeps me going.
One positive voice kills all the opposition.  :)


I wouldn't call it opposition, more a silence, but...


Anyway, this mod is a hodgepodge of ideas and I like it that way.
There are opportunities to add a part of town built with these
buildings and you can use different parts as 'addons' if you want.


Some have asked for a market and I know I said yes.
...I think I have done enough for now.
Use any small market parts and build a wall and add storage... you know.


I will test some more. Tomorrow (checking clock) ...today is holiday here
so that means a lot of free time to doublecheck and maybe release.


For now, live long and prosper. (always wanted to say that) :)

But you never know.

Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1.1
Post by: kid1293 on June 24, 2017, 01:20:53 PM

Spice garden is what I was thinking. Then I can skip the seeds completely.
There is no other use for spices. Except for some butterscotch if you want. (had to Google it)
So, some sort of candy made from 'sugar and spice'. ( no music comment? )
The Ginger Bread Baker can make candy.


What is "chocolate covered marshmallows santas" ?
Does not sound like a combination I want to eat...

Say it isn't so, no chocolate covered marshmallow Santas in Sweden?  No chocolate covered marshmallow Easter Bunnies either?   :o  They are delicious marshmallow in santa or bunny shape covered with a thin coating of chocolate.  What about peeps? I just had my last Easter bunny peep floating in my coffee cup this morning. 

I think Bannies need a separate candy shop because baker has to make cookies.

Another fabulous set from you, Kid (http://worldofbanished.com/index.php?action=profile;u=2582), that I recently discovered!  The small stone houses are super cute!  I was wondering if the roofs to the church and school are supposed to be white only, differing from the roofs from the other buildings in the set.  Personally, I would like them to be the same as the others.  It was making my townies think the snow never melts off the church and school roofs.

With so many different mod sets I have found that I love, that all don't go together in the same neighborhood, I need to make different "mini towns" on the same map so I can use them all!
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1.1
Post by: embx61 on August 28, 2017, 03:18:31 AM
Yes

All us modders have our own design and creativity ideas.

We try to stay as compatible as possible with the resources but the design and creative aspects are our own.
The good thing about it is that there is so much diversity.

There is always something to find what they like for about every player.

Creating mini towns is a good way to use a lot of mods and several area's blend together quite well.
brads is doing this currently in his blog.

Some players choose only several mods for the map they plan to play what they think goes to together close enough.
Then for a next map they choose some other mods.

I still wish that Kid would one day make the school and church not all white but in the same color palette as the homes. I love that salmon almost pinkish tone.  And also, I wish he would make a matching house with a footprint a bit larger than the cute tiny house, but smaller than the tower house/business stackable building.  Or, maybe another modder would make something on the scale of the cute mini house, but a bit larger in that same color palette.  I wish I could mod.

Hi Granny!
If I do the school and chapel in the same palette they will look like any other house.
But I agree on the roof. It does not have to be white. But do we want all roofs the same?
I want to keep the walls. They sort of signal that this is a different building.
And I like them! That's all only minor changes.
The problem is that I am now trying to mod something entirely different.
I can put that on hold and go for a 'middle' sized house. 4x4 plus road should be fine.
No angled variants. Maybe the mod gets big. I don't know.
I'll let you know what I will do.
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1.1

Oh yes, I agree, Kid, that if the school and church matched totally to the cute little houses, then the school and church would look like just any other house.  But, they do need in a bit of color in my opinion.  I think the roof colors of all those buildings being the same color is fine.  Or maybe that tannish color that is used on the borders of the salmonish color roofs and window frames.

A 4x4 middle sized house would be great.  Angled variants aren't needed.  I have scarcely used any angled buildings- just small sheds or maybe a very small house. 

I love this set so am thrilled that you are considering doing just a bit more with it!  I appreciate your thinking to put your other project on hold for a bit.

@kid1293 just a thought regarding church and school roof color, what about f-variants, 1- keeping the original but adding 2- a set matching color and a 3rd choice the dark green color of the ivy.  I think that would look nice as well as retaining the uniqueness.  Hi @galensgranny   :)
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1.1
Post by: kid1293 on August 29, 2017, 04:08:16 AM
I already have f-key variant. With/without ivy.
I guess the simple solution is to give school and church same roof as other houses
while keeping the woodedge and walls.

Green roof? That's a new one. :)

Post by: galensgranny on August 29, 2017, 05:30:57 AM
Sounds, good, Kid- giving the church and school the same roof as the other houses.  :)   I'm working on a village now with the other items in the set and waiting for my bannies to get some education and religion (in color coordinated buildings, of course.)

I am having an interesting time arranging the tower pieces to make a large apartment complex over embx1's Material's Store and your bottom level smith from this set.  Of course I selected one of your stone textures that coordinated with embx1's material's store.  It's great that the upper levels of the stone towers can be smooshed together one partly inside the other  And that decorative trim that is included in the set really makes it all better.

Hello, Abandoned (http://worldofbanished.com/index.php?action=profile;u=6047).  So you like green.  Green roofs are fine in general but unless there were other available buildings in the same color scheme, just that school with a green roof would be kind of an odd building out.  Unless there were other items that matched in some way.

Post by: Abandoned on August 29, 2017, 05:41:59 AM
oh oh, @galensgranny , you will get me in trouble with Kid if we suggested more matching green buildings.  :)  The green roof would match the ivy on the walls and cemetery and some shrubbery, nice for a separate area away from the houses.

Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1.1
Post by: Abandoned on August 29, 2017, 01:11:39 PM
No, green not necessarily better than white, I just thought it would look good on the church to match the ivy, maybe even mossy looking but the matching roof you made looks very nice on the church and school so green one is not really needed.  Maybe later for something else.  :)

White roofs can look nice if the building is darker.  On my computer, the school and church with the white roofs and that color stone look washed out.  On my computer, it doesn't look as good as in your screenshot in this thread. 

For this set, for another color roof,  maybe a dark gray would be good, like the dark gray/light black color on one of your mountain mansions.

Post by: kid1293 on October 28, 2017, 09:13:19 AM
I have uploaded a fix for a serious error.
V1.21 has changed footprint on all tower floors.
They are no longer ghosted. The upper floors can be built on roadtiles that fits the ground floors.
This means you can no longer rotate upper floors to have balcony facing forward.

And, of course, since I changed the footprint you can not load this update in a saved game.

Great Thank You to @traceyfields for finding this!
(now they burn as they should) :)

edit - I add a picture that shows it all.

Post by: galensgranny on October 29, 2017, 03:05:03 AM
I would rather keep the old version of the tower building where the upper levels can be rotated to change which direction the balcony faces.  But, for people who have disasters on and like their buildings to burn, I guess this is good for them.

I love it being ghosted.  I can do all sorts of creative things with building looks.  I wish you would make more ghosted upper levels of different sizes and textures, Kid.
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1.22
Post by: galensgranny on October 29, 2017, 03:10:45 AM
Oh, thanks Kid for adding a new look- wooden version.   :)   

I would also be interested in something like more roof color options for these buildings.  I wonder if ghosted roof covers is something possible, maybe not for all the house shapes, but for some, such as the school and the little stone house, instead of making all new sets.

Hi @galensgranny - It is actually easier to just copy model and change texture.
I won't do the roofs just yet.

I have a question for you - It was you who wanted me to update Workplaces?
I have been thinking and I don't remember where I read it.
I don't have full access to Necora's resources but EB's and RK's can be added.
I will continue to plan for it when I have the time!

@galensgranny - I listen and I think!
It was easy to solve the rotated upper towers, so I made an update (again) :)
The problem is, there is so much traffic I can't upload it now.
It will have to be some time later.

Here is a temporary solution. I still have problems with upload.
From my Google drive. Version 1.23 with more free placement of upper floors.
I have it uploaded on Nexus. https://www.nexusmods.com/banished/mods/62

@adelegarland - I have seen Necora on forum but no posts. It's been a while now.
I have added RK's resources from Training Camp to Workplace mod.
I hope it works with CC's stand-alone Bison mod too!
After checking EB's resources I think I wait with them.
Maybe I take a look at CC's production to see if I can 'steal' anything.  ;)

@kid1293 here's a thought, would it be possible to leave Workplace mod with the houses and workplaces as it was, and make a separate mod with only the workplace pieces, anvil, etc, with the new resources add to those pieces only.  Those who want the extras added can have them and the original too and those that don't want all those extra arriving at the trading post won't get them.  Using the last version of the mod is fine if this is the final update, but if another update may follow, one would be forced to choose.   :-\
Title: Re: Kid - Stone House Addon V1.22
Post by: kid1293 on October 29, 2017, 01:35:12 PM
Hmm...

You make me think deeper @Abandoned ! :)
I, myself don't want those things in trade ports.
Maybe I should say my own meaning about this?

I have several times backed down and allowed new things which often
leads to compatibility problems. Forest Outpost with tany's wild things,
Colonial Houses experimenting with CC stuff and quite honestly I have
regretted them. Whenever one updates I have to update...
OK, OK, I would maybe not have bread if I hadn't used CC flour.
(but I can imagine the bannies being clever enough to grind their own flour...)

Being a grumpy old man who no longer knows how to play, I must say
I can partly understand people who want everything according to their
way of playing. But I had to do that for myself to get what I wanted.
Then the requests came. The rest is history.

I have recently found some time to play another game.
Banished is sort of lost to me. It will never be the same when I know
I can make a mod and change the rules.

To Abandoned - I don't want two of everything any more. With cross/without cross
But, I listen to what you say. This time we agree on not touching a working Workplace.

...oh, I get sad bursting out like this.

Kid (http://worldofbanished.com/index.php?action=profile;u=2582), I glad that you expressed how you feel about mods.  Keep to your way of doing things. 

I don't want too many mods with extra things not in the basic vanilla game, especially if they then require adding some full game altering mod to be able to use a particular building newly created.  I like using your mods not only because they look good, but they are not complex things.

QuoteBanished is sort of lost to me. It will never be the same when I know
I can make a mod and change the rules.

That is too bad.  I wish I could mod as then I would design all sorts of different houses.  I care more about how my towns look than their functioning.

Kid, would you feel up to making dark gray roof alternatives for the houses, at least just the stand alone houses?  I really need that for a village section I had been working on.  And if it is not too much, would you add one more style of standalone house like one more from your Nordic Housing Mod?  (The size of the houses in your Nordic Housing Mod are my favorite size.)

Not now, I am sorry  :(
