Why can't I make stuff like this properly  e: also with my background it's a little tough to not pick really bright colours because last time I did 3D regularly, I did cartoon stuff.

Keep at it! The games got a really strong lighting system, one person might have a realistic lighting mod, and another will have some mad vibrant one.

This game handles specmaps weird. It's either FULL BLAST, some specularity, or none. Part of the "toyish" look of the building might be because the whole roof is uniform shinyness even though I have the roof tiles to be quite dark on the specmap  e: I can't believe I'm still working on this thing.

Hit 200k today without really trying. Cargo ships just form huge lines now to get into my ports. Everything flows quite well. The red stuff has a lot of traffic but doesn't seem obstructed in any way. Except for the red on the highway on the left, which had an on ramp that was causing some issues and has since been removed.  not shown: as predicted, my five-roundabout-mega-intersection started to choke out at around 200k people and got replaced with one of those large Pinavia intersections linked earlier, which made things a lot more compact but doesn't seem to be much of an improvement. Will probably have to replace it with something more heavy duty later. Have a couple of scenic screenshots to round out the collection    Map: Hong Kong

That FAQ on how to update workshop items should really be in the OP. I deleted my updated version trying to get the old version out of my game, and the "guide" on the wiki is trash because it tells you how to get the update button, not how to fix the loving thing.

I Just realized that even though I've plopped most of the buildings for the Eden Project that it still says 0 of 1 completed and lists a building that I've already plopped. Anyone else had this issue? Does this get messed up with mods?

I finally got the workshop to update my stupid mod properly. It's less saturated and has an edited specmap so it's not as toy-looking, and not as washed-out as the last "update" (I need to update the screenshots). It looks somewhat better than my (really popular) wayshrine mod in my opinion but if you don't like my style, it's not really an improvement.

So I'm making a thing. Still figuring out the finer points of the map editor and I'm actually more interested in building cities, so it'll probably take me a while to make something worthwhile playing.

Cincle posted:Why do my office building say they need to be covered by more services while everything is totally in the green? I just plop down a full set of services like every other or every third city block. It seems to get the job done. Public transport is another one that's easy to overlook. I do find it strange that the triggering factor for my sludge-filled wasteland of an industrial zone upgrading was the addition of several elementary schools.

Y'know what'd be awesome - if we could set the "style" of a district (as well as policies) such that you could choose from either preset or custom lists of buildings to make distinct looking suburbs, make more use of the variety. Be nice to have 'historic' districts with older looking buildings as well as making sure everything in 'techno park' looked appropriate. That way sets of DLC buildings (workshop or official dlc) could be grouped together for a consistent look. I have no idea if that's even possible though, but I can dream. Also has anyone found any mods that let you build zones up against the one way offramp roads? I found zoneable pedestrian paths but not for the single lane one way streets, many of which exist in my home town so I thought it would be fun to re-create. Not fun for the cars. Fun fact: some got turned into two way streets that also allow parking - loving grand ole time driving along one of those fuckers - oh poo poo someone coming the other way? one of us gonna have to park - is there room? No? gently caress.

Just a quick one again. I see 3DS max has a feature to automatically make auto uv maps. I'm gonna learn how to do it 'properly', but for the time being, can I still paint faces with materials manually, and run some action to generate these magic UV maps. Fuckin things. Jus wanna texture cubes

simosimo posted:Just a quick one again. Eventually you'll want to do some manual UV editing to really optimize space on the texture, or to do things like giving a window lots of detail despite it being small on the building. It's annoying, but it can actually save you work because you can stack like surfaces together so that they all use the same part of the texture.

Pyrion just killed 6000 people in his town with shitwater. That was after building a 48 MW dam and leveling it a few days later after realizing what a terrible idea it was. Good to see his dota skills carrying over to other games.

It's annoying, but it can actually save you work because you can stack like surfaces together so that they all use the same part of the texture. Yeah I see the upside, esp with repeating parts. So on a single texture, does it matter how big things are or where they are placed? Lets say a 1024x1024 texture has every part of a basic house, a large space for the wall because we want that information to not be blurred and a small spot for the doors and windows, and even smaller areas for misc stuff like pipes and guttering. Am I right in assuming that all you are doing is creating points on this flat texture with everything on, and these points/coordinates are reflected on the model. So 'rectangle one', which is 25px by 200px lets say, this rectangle will be a part of guttering. I then select the face of the shape in the 3D view and then this 'rectangle one' selected area appears on the face. I'm trying to learn after work each evening, i've been jumping between Sketch/Blender/3DS so my heads all over the place. The actual modelling is the easy part, who knew! Just wanna crank out some small props for the workshop, lets hope I can crack this poo poo soon.

Patch just went up: added a Film grain slider in the Graphics options, like for the Tilt shift. (Users with the Disable Film Grain mod subscribed from Steam workshop and enabled will be notified with a "Console warning" when the game start and the game will automatically disable the mod and set the film grain amount to 0 so that no action from users is required apart from closing the Console panel). road upgrade tool now works between two-way and one-way roads and right mouse-button changes direction of one-way roads nerfed parks decreasing commercial demand

Reading what I wrote though now makes no sense, I blame being half asleep D:Anyway I've pretty much reclaimed land from the sea with the dam + water pump system, and on the left hand side have a dam giving a good energy supply by having my water treatment plants behind it giving it a good boost. Top right dammed river I have my drinking water. Almost finished building most of the city in the big open area of the sea.

In all seriousness though, I go by that intersection all the time, and it really isn't as bad when you are driving on it, since you just follow the signs and honestly w/o this aerial view I had no idea that there are that many roads at work there, since all the paths are pretty isolated from each other. Now Rt. 66, of northern Virginia, that is nearby, that thing, is a nightmare... At almost all hours on every days of the week there will be traffic jam on that road...
