Furnaceface posted:This would own, especially if I can recreate Habitat 67. Seeing that, it'd actually be really cool if there was a mod that procedurally combined smaller prefab units to make a building, like how Habitat 67 is designed. I don't know whether the engine supports that, though. In searching for procedural buildings I found this page which apparently has a program for creating building models procedurally from photographs - it'd be really cool if someone could figure out how to use that to make buildings for Skylines

Can you delete your installed mods by just finding the directory they're saved in? Or do you have to unsubscribe to each ... and ... every ... one.

Domattee posted:Kinda? It's going to lose at least a couple hundred polys as is but a lot of the detail is repeating stuff that will have to happen either to the entire building or not at all, so I have to check how bad the difference is in-game. e: Also, we should go to the modding thread for more technical talk.

How can you even tell what size the stupid massive buildings are? I'd love to unsubscribe to all the big bloated 70mb ones but I can't figure out how to determine which are big and which are not made by hi-res hi-poly spergs

Is there a tool that can open .crp yet? A lot of the stupid-large assets could probably be fixed by just opening and saving them in GIMP or something.

Hunter Noventa posted:You can actually unsub from right in the game's own startup menu. I don't know about your install, but that menu on mine is painfully slow for unsubscribing to a bunch of things. Even with that improved asset menu mod. It was much, much, quicker to go through Steam, and I don't think even the improved assets menu shows the size right there. Easiest way I found was to go to your subs, filter building, then go through all (250 or so for me) subs and see which ones are too big file wise. Maybe there's an easier way, but I couldn't think of it.

Light-timing looks like  , though. What would be great is if you could just select a string of intersections in a row and have the game compute the optimal synchronization for you. Or the way it works in my hometown, where the lights are fed information from sensors under the pavement.

And I'm not a sperg, so I model buildings to fit the style and look good. Oh wow, can this conversation be moved into the mod thread? Not because I think its going anywhere different its just I didnt see ridiculous mod drama happing so fast, normally takes years to surface. Lets savour every drop.

With the thread title being "you should purchase this game, you won't regret this" I'm pretty sad. I own a Venue 8 pro and a Dell laptop--both of which are under the min. system requirements--so I imagine that I won't be able to run this game, meaning I will regret the purchase.  Also, Intel Integrated Graphics aren't supported, so I guess even if my processors were faster I still would be hosed.Even though the game looks pretty, I'm surprised that a city building game is intense enough that my lame computers can't run it. Has anyone had luck with running the game on a less-than-optimal system?

I'm glad my rule for file size is helping people out. It's sort of just a rough guide though, so if you really must have a 15mb building go for it. I have no doubt large complex Frank Gehry buildings in the future will have to be like 15mb. I just think it's better to wait for the good buildings to come later, because there's no good reason why a simple box is 20mb. What gets me are buildings that are just so plain and basic are so bloated. Makes me half tempted to learn how to just do texture edits so I can upload optimized versions of everyone's creations. But that'd start something and I'm not sure I'm ready for it.

I have a feeling a lot of the bloated buildings are from either first-time modelers who don't understand less is more when it comes to real-time rendering assets for a game, or SC4 modelers who once again have zero experience rendering in real time and come from a world where people would brag about how long their building took to render.

They should be in the Steam folder: Steam\steamapps\workshop\content There should be numbered folders in there, those correspond to games (so for example my Cities Skylines folder in there is '255710'), and all your mods should be in that folder. I'm pretty sure the numbers are the app ID of the game in Steam so your folder should be 255710, too. Moridin920 fucked around with this message at 07:44 on Apr 9, 2015 |

I built a cargo train station with a huge six lane roundabout connected by ramps to two highways in the middle of nowhere and the travel time calculation still brings a fair bit of traffic to it from the industrial areas. It's relieved pressure from the two cargo stations in the city itself, and I can build a huge fuckoff industrial zone there when I get around to it. Bonus picture:  Only when I'd built that huge highway bridge from the back to the huge roundabout in the middle did I wake up and go "Man, this is a bit of a mess." To be fair there's a fair few ramps and poo poo that can be culled. I also wish the pedestrian pathways didn't look like a gray space spider is stalking the city but they're so useful! Thanks to them and the public transit system the university generates negligible traffic and I only need one in the entire city. Sulphagnist fucked around with this message at 12:49 on Apr 9, 2015 |
