some time ago I mentioned like t make buildings to build on slopes with their own foundations.

Well I started on these.
^ Made some old houses that can have back yards that will build on slopes. Both parts can go on slopes or 1 part flat land and other part on slope.
They will build on slopes facing North west, North East, South-West and south-East.
* Made some shops that will also build on the slopes with brick work foundations.
* Also added some wells. these well ca be placed in parks and used as a wishing well or on a farm for water supply to the homes.
* Made some 3 store units (Already have some for flat ground, so now we will have some that go on slopes as well).
* Made a country church
* A country town hall that is used as a school weekdays, church Sundays, and Friday nights and Saturdays for dances, weddings, and other entertainment,
* A country fire and ambulance stations (animated).

That all I got time t tell you. Bus comes in about 10 minutes.

Cheers

I still have no internet at home so trying the one at Library.

Here the latest AuzObjectsPre1900 with the buildings on slopes for you to try.

Added the following objects to this set.

In Accidents/Emergency:
* Country Fire Station
* Country Ambulance Station

In Parks + Play Grounds:
* Wishing Wells (also 1 that can be used on farms t supply drinking water.

In Churches:
* Country Church

In Buildings on Slopes:
(These go on slopes and have their own foundations).
** Shops Face Up Hill
** Shops Face Down Hill
** Old houses that go on slopes
** Back yards that can be used with the houses on slopes and with houses on flat ground with a sloped back yard.
** 3 story apartment buildings

In Houses:
* Old West Town with out horses
* Old West Saloons without horses.
* 2 Story Apartment Buildings
* 2 sets of back yards for the 2 story apartments.
(These apartments have a lane way between buildings so owners can access their back yards or walk through to the next street)

In Shops:
* Shops that match the ones on slopes.

This what you can do with the sloped buildings.

The only remarks I have is that the houses would look even better with just a bit of texture:

Just randomly sprinkle a couple of lighter/darker pixels on them, thats all.

And with regards to the roofs of the shops.
Those have some very light texture, but I think they also could do with just a tad more visible pixels.
That way they look better in normal zoomed out view.

EDIT:
I really like the animations of the emergency buildings, nice detail!

Not too important as there probably soon will come a version v18

GarryG wrote: ↑07 Apr 2023 09:54 Just to give you early warning that there are some BIG changes happening.
Starting to re-make some objects sets to try and reduce the number of items and GRF files.

Today I was able to delete the AuzObjectsPre1900 and move all those objects into AuzTownObjects and AuzTownObjectsAddOns.
