UK Towns Set [v3.0/spiritual successor now out]
Moderator: Graphics Moderators
Re: UK Towns Set [V2 Now Available]
New version is available in the release thread, fixing the issues with 2x2 buildings appearing.
Re: UK Towns Set [V2 Now Available]
Hello, can I be as bold as to make a suggestion? Is it possible to make the buildings have a minimum lifespan so the town won't rebuild houses that are only 1 year old (Or sometimes one that was built 2 months ago)? Could be be set so they have to hang around for a least 10 years or something?
Re: UK Towns Set [V2 Now Available]
Sounds like a good idea, I think it is quite easy to set too... Is it a general issue across the whole set, ie. all buildings?
Re: UK Towns Set [V2 Now Available]
I have been finding it hard to try and do, but I'm a Noob at it. But I was asking about it in another post and was told this:

Re: UK Towns Set [V2 Now Available]
Looks simple enough, I will have a go when I get a chance, may not be for a few days though...
Re: UK Towns Set [V2 Now Available]
Okay sounds good. I always use the UK town set, nice buildings.

Re: UK Towns Set [V2 Now Available]
I'm in the process of map creation and selection, I had a hard time to find the newest version of the NewGRF in my grf list. Maybe include the version in the name in the upcoming releases:
EDIT: They also could use some (better) snow-awareness. The snowy houses are from the base set, the non-snowy ones from UK Houses:- Attachments

Re: UK Towns Set [V2 Now Available]
Improving the grf list name sounds like the kind of simple impovement I can manage... On the subject of the snow line what could be causing this issue? I guess the trigger height is set to the top of the snow line transition rather than the bottom...
Re: UK Towns Set [V2 Now Available]
So... I have been playing an epic game with lots of towns hitting 20-30,000 population and the UK Town Set buildings looked a bit short!
Here are some new tall (>10 storey) office blocks (16 variants, four construction stages, four rotations) I think would fit well, buttercup are you around to do some coding?

Re: UK Towns Set [V2 Now Available]
Looking good, it's nice to see some more development on one of my favourite house sets!
Re: UK Towns Set [V2 Now Available]
Its nice to hear someone likes my town set too

Re: UK Towns Set [V2 Now Available]
Just needs a crane(s) for construction stages! Also don't want to be a pedantic architect, but it's very impractical to build a building of that scale with exterior bearing walls as the main structure, so maybe some very rudimentary steal or concrete columns or core should be visible in the construction stage? On most tall buildings the exterior is just a skin whether it is mirror glass, brick, marble, or even concrete.
Re: UK Towns Set [V2 Now Available]
I iz in your repositories, stealing and coding your graphics. Teehee.
Re: UK Towns Set [V2 Now Available]
So, seven years later, and I'm back! I'm currently working on an update to this set...
So, what did you love? What did you hate?
I'm moving towards:
* Adding semi-detached houses
* Smarter terrace graphics
* More town buildings that look like tall terraces rather than random blocks
* More UK-ish modern towerblocks/skyscrapers
Oh, and hopefully 4x zoom for everything.

Re: UK Towns Set [V2 Now Available]
Wish list stuff; stuff appropriate to 1800 to 1900.
Re: UK Towns Set [V2 Now Available]
1800-1900s UK houses are dominantly the the classic terrace, perhaps with slightly fancier brickwork... Is that what you were thinking of? Or perhaps something older, like half timber and thatched?
Re: UK Towns Set [V2 Now Available]
... and a little sneak preview
