Maldrick - Old Courthouse v1.00Adds Services buildings in the style of the vanilla theme that provide safety happiness. Staffed by the Bailiff profession.
Old Courthouse - large radius, one per village
Old Bailiff's Office - medium radius, three per village
Very sincerest thanks to all of the modders who helped me get back into modding and with getting this completed.
@kid1293 and
@RedKetchup generously shared their vanilla textures for this, and I couldn't have gotten through it without their coding help, as well as
@Tom Sawyer and
@Discrepancy .
@embx61 gave a lot of inspiration, as well, as I was getting started with it. Thank you very much, gentlemen.
very very nice and well done !!
looks real as Luke's
Thank you, guys. I wanted to force myself to work within certain constraints, and I missed the "golden age" of early modding when a lot of vanilla-like buildings were being done, so it seemed like a good way to go for a second effort. Loved kid's Old Town mod when I got back to the game a couple of months ago and that got me thinking about doing something like this. Learned a lot in the process.
@1 Thank you, I hope you enjoy it.
@RedKetchup Your roof texture is absolutely perfect. Many thanks, again, for sharing it. And your other help, as well, of course.
Well done :) does not look out of place at all with the other vanilla buildings, but at the same time offers something new!
I love the introduction of a Bailiff profession and the Henry reference ;)
Thank you,
@Discrepancy .
I couldn't resist giving a nod to KCD. Such a great game. The death message has to do with the bailiff being pummelled while enforcing tavern hours. :P Considered including Father Godwin in there somewhere.
Wow. You're off to a good start! :) :)
I must pass the ball and say - Now we need a village! ;D
Congrats!
Thank you very much,
@kid1293 . I would have been lost without your help, and your textures made all the difference. And your Old Town set. Had so much fun playing with that when I got back and got me thinking about the vanilla game again.
I, honestly, have no idea what's next. Have some thoughts for what comes after, but need more experience first, I think. Haven't done anything that makes anything yet, and I'm a little sketchy about it. Had good results starting with a test chapel for this. Might sink into making generics for a bit just to get my personal kit in order.
I'm open to suggestions. :D
Those white corner stones would look awesome on a full village set.
Also, any chance the texture of the steps could be used for a stone road?
An idea for a town big storage barn: Keep the central main part with the doors. Remove the left and right extensions but keep those smaller coverings and place them along the longer sides filled with deco storage barrels and crates. Copy/paste the entrance to the back. Keep the steps but place them all around the structure at the same spacing as it is now at the front.
You did a very good job! I am glad to have a different way to get safety happiness besides wells.
Very nice. It will be interesting to see what you do next. :)
A wonderful addition! Thank you.
Thank you, everyone. It means a lot to hear what people think and I'm thrilled you guys like it.
And thank you for the suggestions. I'm probably going to get into another theme for a bit because I need to keep branching out into other building types, so doing a theme makes sense. But I do have some ideas for something I'd like to do with the vanilla theme down the road and I'll definitely see what I can do with your suggestions. In the meantime, if you like the vanilla theme, I highly recommend kid's Old Town set. He did some very interesting things to add to the vanilla game without going too crazy with extra production and keeping it "vanilla." Also, Red's "Old" buildings...Tailor, Blacksmith, Bakery, and there's one other that escapes me at the moment. He also has a large school and apiary that fits the vanilla theme nicely. I think those last two might be in the older mods section from before 107, but they still work with 107 just fine. I put all of that together for some play when I got back to the game a couple months ago and it was very fun. There are probably others that I'm not thinking of at the moment. I still love the vanilla game, too. :D
@Scoots Circus Welcome to the boards! Very glad to hear you like the mod. Thank you.
@Gatherer Thank you! I was originally going to try to match this with the vanilla town hall textures but, truthfully, I'm finding that I'm less bad at modelling than I am with 2d images, which I'm awful at. And thought this would look nicer than the painted on stones. Discrepancy does a lot of cornerstones and I think they really look great on a model, too. His are just beautiful, imo. I will definitely revisit this down the road but I have some more learning to do first. I'm, honestly, not sure about a road. The extent of my experience so far is with houses and modifying a chapel for this. I gather roads are something of a challenge when it comes to textures, but that's just the impression I've gotten reading what other modders have to say about it. But I'll have a look at it when I get to that, for sure.
@galensgranny @elemental @Kimbolton Thank you very much!
Great looking buildings
@Maldrick . I'll have to give them a try when I get back to Banished. I've been playing a couple other games lately; taking a break from Banished while modders get some of their stuff finished.
Thank you,
@Hawk . Hope you do.
Have to ask, what have you been playing?

Planetbase, The Long Dark & Transport Fever. :)
These buildings look so nice! You did a really good job with the textures.
Also, aside to Hawk, I love The Long Dark too! Are you excited for the story mode redux?
@angainor88 Thank you! Finally wrapped my brain around multi-materials and it just clicked.
@Hawk All great games! Have them but have yet to sink in to any of them very far because I'm forever going back and forth between Banished and 7 Days to Die. If you like survival games, I highly recommend 7 days, by the way. Might have to give The Long Dark a serious look before too long.
I don't want to derail the thread into survival games, but... :P
I really love them! Unfortunately I can't handle scary games, and a lot of survival stuff is also survival/horror :( I will look into 7 days though!
The Long Dark though is seriously my favorite survival game. It is beautifully atmospheric, and the struggle for survival is against nature (the elements, starvation, those damn wolves!) rather than zombies. I can't give it a high enough recommendation. (and they just re-released the first two chapters of the story, with the third chapter to come sometime early next year).
I guess I should make a post in the other games thread sometime :P
Just to derail this a tiny bit further, I saw Keralis playing Dawn of Man on Youtube. It's basically stone age Banished. Some people here might be interested in taking a look.
No worries...doesn't bother me if the mods are okay with it.
@angainor88 I definitely need to give TLD some serious play. I always wind up back in 7 Days, though, because it's as much a resource management / building game as survival. Some have called it "Minecraft for adults." Whole world is voxelized and with some notable exceptions everything can be destroyed and you can build whatever you want wherever you want if you have the resources for it. Yet, it doesn't look like any other voxel game and the world is very realistic and natural looking. It's also a total sandbox...You start with a can of food, bottle of water, and a bandage...the unexplored world is your oyster and a horde of zombies is coming after you every 7 days. Which necessitates base building on top of surviving. I'm specifically not into zombie or horror games, myself, but took a chance with this and just love it. The zombies arent that scary, just when there are lots of them like lots of anything would be. Oddly, packs of dogs and single bears are the worst. I find the game scratches the same itch as Banished even though it's an entirely different type of game.
Definitely going to have to make a point of getting into TLD soon, though. It's right up my alley and everyone raves about it.
@elemental Keralis is great fun to watch and I saw his videos on my YouTube feed but haven't checked it out yet. Hows it look? I did check out Foundation after seeing his stuff.
The game looks interesting. It's less cartoony than Foundation.

I never played the first release of Wintermute. Probably won't play this version. I like Survival mode better. I did watch a video if Wintermute though and I'll probably watch videos of this version too. At least that way I'll understand the story better. I just prefer free play. :)
The Redux has already been released for Steam users. Unfortunately I bought TLD at GOG and it takes them a couple of weeks to update TLD.
Urban Games released an update to Transport Fever the day after Hinterland released the Redux. I got the TPF update this morning.
I'd like to say it takes GOG so long for TLD because Hinterland pulled TLD from GOG sales, but it was like that before that happened. Now that GOG no longer sells TLD it might take even longer to release the Redux, if it even gets released at GOG.
Yes, Dawn of Man was one I have been waiting for forever, but it's not out out til March I think. I don't usually play the betas.
It sucks that they don't have The Long Dark on GOG anymore. I think they are still doing updates through it though? I hope they are anyway.
I like the survival mode better too. I usually play in Pilgrim (the wolves are too scary) so I decided to do Story Mode as a challenge since it isn't permadeath. I liked it the first time, and people are saying the redux is better. I can't wait until the weekend so I have some time to play. Not too much time though, since it's Christmas and visiting family and all...

According to Hinterland they are going to continue to update the GoG version.
Now all you need is a jail to complete the set
One profession and an unhappiness radius
Thank you very much Maldrick ;D- all good in 2019 and successful work on modeling new objects . Cheers ;D
And you, as well,
@taniu . Thank you, and Merry Christmas. :)
