i found a low poly poplar to use. i also took a picture of Apollo and asked a AI 3D model website to generate a 3d model from the picture. it made me a 600,000 polygon statue which i optimized and reduced to 3400 poly :)

and i did put 4 of those on the pillars :)

Here what it looks final, without the textures though. i need to find textures

And so much fun !!!

and

4th Wonder shot 13 (https://mega.nz/file/cNclVKIS#hcI8qpWElOrGD-bxCqlxHN2FADf88kwnbsgXniXkTtg)

I was very happy with the Taj Mahal .... but this one .... i am a lot more happy ^^
It makes me willing to do more of those hehe

i think , in Banished, it fill an hole so perfectly, strong building you put once in a city.
and i think it will make cities more complete overall.

If you're planning on making more Wonders, the Library of Alexandria would be a great addition! It could work as a school, fitting the 'knowledge' theme perfectly. It would be awesome for the more advanced stages of the game, with a larger student capacity and a wider radius than the standard school.

thats a strong suggestion you made

Not sure how to fix it, but remember when the cabin stayed dark? Might be the same thing happening again.
Title: Re: Doing a 4th Wonder presently :)
Post by: Necrolex on December 29, 2025, 08:24:55 PM
Are the trees configured as decorative objects or as 'real' trees for the game?
Title: Re: Doing a 4th Wonder presently :)
Post by: Necrolex on December 29, 2025, 08:32:37 PM
I think it might be like that AO issue with the cabin from before.

nan it was the optimizer that changed they way to apply the texture to the form. i fixed it

Delphi Oracle Wonder (https://mega.nz/file/UMFHDART#ImtPW20FXXJjHELnTfC5ZkvtUgN7QPrO2N8K_J6cQpA)

I'm glad you found the solution! It's looking really beautiful.

About the wonders: it's a shame that water in the game only works at sea level. It would be stunning to see the Hanging Gardens of Babylon with water channels running from the top all the way down, but that would only work in a 'non-hanging' version, or one where the channels were only on the ground.

Ah, great to know! I completely misunderstood how it worked. I assumed fountains used a different type of simulation.

Oracle of Delphi v1.0 by Red Ketchup



https://worldofbanished.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=727

Oracle of Delphi v1.0 by Red Ketchup

Desc.: The Oracle of Delphi was the most revered prophetic site in ancient Greece, where the priestess (the Pythia) channeled prophecies from the god Apollo, influencing major decisions for Greeks from individuals to empires for centuries, located at the sacred site of Delphi on Mt. Parnassus, considered the world's center (Omphalos). The prophecies, often cryptic riddles delivered in trance-like states possibly induced by vapors, guided politics, war, and colonization until the oracle's decline under Roman rule and eventual closure by Emperor Theodosius I in the 4th century AD

Comment: The Oracle of Delphi model is hypothetic because it is in ruins for a lot of centuries. I designed the model by using a screenshot I did from the model made in Civilization VI and I adapted it for the Banished game. Although it is an oracle, in Banished, it is acting as a church. This is my 4rd wonder.

Role: Church.
Dimensions: 15 x 16 tiles.
Building cost: 600 work units, 42 logs, 340 stones.
Feature: Happiness Spirit.
Radius: 50 tiles.
Nb Citizens: 800 adepts.

ENJOY !!

One step higher !! ^^

5th Wonder shot3 (https://mega.nz/file/0JFRhaYD#fSIl6H5eM4CKQFb2zeZ5es5KEUHVwN7KDHSNlmcbxoc)

The model i am making seem and look simple, but in fact, it is complexe, and needs of a lot of calculations and adjustments because 90% of it is always in angle. All walls have a 10% angle ^^ so it is not that simple lol

Etemenanki v1.0 by Red Ketchup.


Desc.: Etemenanki. Temple of the Foundation of Heaven and Earth was a ziggurat dedicated to the Mesopotamian god Marduk in the ancient city of Babylon. It now exists only in ruins, located about 90 kilometres (56 mi) south of Baghdad, Iraq. Many scholars have identified Etemenanki as the ziggurat for the biblical account of the Tower of Babel.

Comment: Etemenanki, also known as the Tower of Babel from the Bible. This is my 5th Wonder made for Banished. My model is not that high to compare other wonders i did recently, pretty  par with the others ^^ Although it can look simple, this model took me a lot of work because all the walls are in angle. I got to do a lot of adjustments and calculations.
