greetings.
today i come with perhaps an odd suggestion and request, which most likely, i won’t be able to see or fully enjoy. perhaps it will get ignored, or lost in the ether and whatever. but at least i tried.
still, i firmly believe it would be great if modders could get it to ease a little bit their works and creations.
as i’m seeing, lots of people actually try to make custom buildings, which it’s great.
however, despite having lots of rendinsts to go through ( which i’m not sure how many actually view every single page like i did. and let me tell you it’s not a fun experience, nor one that anyone should go through just to find what they are looking for ) there aren’t really ones dedicated for proper construction, nor slighlty modern themed objects.
so, as shown by the community, the modders loves to make custom buildings.
what i hate though, is that we lack majority of shapes with specific materials.
which most of ours structures ends up looking like legos with many different colors and materials due to having a huge lack of variety.
or, end up being squared for the most part.
which, initially, and as it sounded, i wanted to focus this suggestion about construction assets. but i included and renamed this suggestion as a suggestion list of rendinsts. because at the bottom, i will include other types of rendindts that wound be great to get.
anyway, i’ll cut straight to the point:
more prefabs / modular construction assets
so, first and foremost, it’s essential to:
- create a new rendinst category & call it, " walls / buildings parts "
perhaps underneath the *houses part
such as the other folders for an easier search and organized place to find all assets needed.
next, create the follow rendinsts shapes:
shapes needed
-
floors
a simple shape, often being either in a square, convex, full circle and/or of a triangular shape -
“full” walls
it’s a simple wall with no characteristic, but again, best to get new type of walls with similar textures.
would be great to get half walls, shorter walls, longer walls etc. -
wall with windows
a simple wall with windows. would be great to get one with squared windows, another one with circular windows, and other walls with 2 / 3 windows opposed to being just one.
for more choises of course. similar to already existing building:
-
curved wall
there aren’t many of those, so it would be great to get them with uniform textures to create buildings with. -
curved wall with door
self explanatory -
curved wall with window
-
convex wall edge
-
triangular diagonal shape
-
under roof wall top
-
wall with arc
-
plain tile roof
-
inner corner roof
used to connect roofs.
tipically used in the inner parts of a L shaped houses -
outer corner roof
-
outer rounded corner roof
-
diagonal roof
-
corner roof rounded
for more roundy roofs since cannot be done with current rendinsts. -
inner round corner roof
-
caved-in curved roof corner
-
caved-in curved inner roof corner
-
caved-in curved roof
-
round curved roof
-
double roof
which as briefly explained, those are shapes.
of which would be great to get each shape set for the following textures:
or rather Lore friendly patterns.
but yeah, generally wood, various type of bricks, concrete and on and on.
in order to have actual pieces that matches rather than being, once again, a lego looking building.
additional rendinsts
in this category, will mention additional rendinsts that would be great to get. which aren’t necessarily part of construction unlike the first part, but are still rendinsts / objects to place around the map. )
concrete, gravel & general type of roads
what has been asked since day one, were roads.
which yes, sooner or later we will get a map editor, but it would still be great for being able to make built in or flying objects for a plain level etc.
having both choises so to speak.
with " cap " versions similar to the ones used for trenches.
[Optional]
Modern assets
so, this may be controversial, but it’s important to remember that most mods are made with modern profiles. which would be great to allow players to create custom modern maps. therefore, some assets would be great. such as cars, streets objects, palaces etc.
newer type of concrete barriers,
Assets from war thunder
interestnly, i’m not sure how precisely the conversion works, but i noticed many shared assets between enlisted and war thunder.
which makes me believe conversions are possible:
therefore, it would be great for many modders mods if enlisted editor gets the following assets ( including their respective destroyed_ri ):
Horch_830_a
kurogane_a
m983_hemtt ( perhaps needs a retextures )
mim104_patriot_command_post_msq_104 ( perhaps needs a retextures )
