Discussions : New Medieval Town v 1.02

[RedKetchup]

it is going a little bit slower than expected... and i lost 2 hrs today for maybe a stupid letter somewhere in the code that i was never seen ...

since the canal 4 tiles width are finished....

doing 6 tiles and 8 tiles large
in both 6 and 8 i made : the straight, the end, the corner, the 3way and the 4way
still missing the bridges, gates, filler1x, the dock and fishing dock. and the TP
and maybe 2 jokers (8=>6 and 6=>4)

maybe i will have 1 or 2 days late on the schedule. i ll announce tomm night if i postpone the launch or not.

[RedKetchup]

i can say ......
after that, when released... i ll take 1-2 month off lol if not maybe more ^^

Ketchup any chances, you can make an medieval variation of CC productions buildings like glassworks etc? This might be fun through.

@RedKetchup - Thanks for the pics on the previous page showing the clarification on the stone on your canals vs the quay wall pieces.  The more that I look at your stone texture, the more I like it.  As for running the wood barrier along the canals... I see no need for it.  Especially in consideration that historic canals didn't provide such barriers.

i made all pieces in 6 and 8x the trading posts asked alot more time than expected ^^
they had something wrong anyways i had to fix (something about the footprint size)

only jokers left to do. and check ALL my footprints graphics made of dirt

[RedKetchup]

the Jokers are done

Medieval Canal : Joker 8-6 and Medieval Canal : Joker 6-4 allow you to connect a 8 tiles canal system to a 6 tiles canal system to a 4 tiles canal system

only left to do a big copy paste and do the old brick texture (CC similar) which should take a couple of hours only
(for 8 tiles and 6 tiles. the 4 tiles are already made)

Impressive. Love your eye for detail in the structures and textures. Looking forward to try it out.

mwahaha to offer all the pieces in 2 different textures i need to make a copy of all my files. 602 files
to make it simple and fast, all my files start with 'New'.
so i made a copy of my folder, i took a 'file renamer' and asked to rename all files starting with 'New' and replace these 3 letters by 'Old'
took 2-3 click , and 602 files was made in 1 sec lol (NewMedievalCanal4x4WayBuild01AO.rsc => OldMedievalCanal4x4WayBuild01AO.rsc for example)

next, since they are text and there are tons of links inside that need to be changed.... i took TextCrawler and i asked to open everything that is .rsc and find inside all 'New' and replace by 'Old'
886 citations in my 602 files it took 2-3 click , and 886 words "New" was changed in "Old" in 2 sec lol
( Like this:  String _imageName = "Models\Canals\NewMedievalCanal4x4WayBuild01AO.png";  => String _imageName = "Models\Canals\OldMedievalCanal4x4WayBuild01AO.png"

thats what i call " effectiveness " and  " efficiency " !!! lol

Red if i might suggest little thing.

Maybe some new medieval decorations with new update? Like new sings etc.

[RedKetchup]

for the moment i didnt plan to do any decoration nor edit my old decoration items mod.

i finished to add 2 sets of canal system

New Medieval Canals : using the brick texture i was using on every building.
Old Medieval Canals : using a more colonial texture made of little rocks that you ve saw lately.

each canal system has 3 different size :
4 tiles (4x) which you ve been testing in beta medieval castle
6 tiles (6x) which is kinda an intermediaire with the large one and the short one
8 tiles (8x) which seems equal the big main river.

each size has 10 icons : End, Straight, Corner, 3-Way, 4-Way, a 1x Filler, Dock, FishingDock, Gate, and TradingPost.
the dock will serve has little storage (1200)

each canal system (brick texture) has 2 'joker' to connect different size of same texture.

i also set up 2 different cattle : cattle will have leather and beef, milky cow will have less beef , but milk. both will have B&W skin.

gonna add barley and shorgun to the mills (thanks to @kralyerg ) and will add mead to tavern.


the launch of version 1.1 will be postponned of around 3 days to finish all little things on everything (check footprints, or other details on everything the mod has)

[Kimbolton]

RedKethup,

Sounds great. Looking forward to it and thanks again for all your hard work!

[RedKetchup]

lol i will have pass all the night just to fix the brown footprints

Water in new canals looks 100% better than in old ones, worth to wait. Through this is only my opinion but. Canals needs some decorations like barrels etc.
