Great stuff! I plan to use these for harbour building.
Do they replace the existing concrete plate or is at a new object?

Fred, is it possible to change colors on edges such that one doesn't see anymore the tile periodical structure when you place several plates as seen in your shot?
Otherwise very cool colors!

I did not make a new object...just recoloured the originals...so they replace the originals everywhere

actually...I just used the burn tool in photoshop to darken them.....i think the tile pattern will remain whatever you do.......

if you want them as a seperate new object then let me know


I already deleted the normal harbour objects from my own maps.....to try and avoid the memory problem....and tried using the taxi plate instead....looks OK

[fabianfred]

actually...using the burn tool was a bit haphazard....so i've re-done it useing the brightness to get the darker effect even

will upload in ten minutes...

[fabianfred]

OK updated

I know I'm a bugger but: possible to remove the periodical appearance at higher distances as seen in your last screenshot? Also somehow colors look better to me in first version...

That's true, but having the adjoining edges at roughly the same colour makes for a smoother transition. (just trying to clarify and help out)

[EDIT]Need to refresh more often when I browse fora with tabbed browsing. Doh! It looks great!

[fabianfred]

sorry...cannot remove the patterning...updated at the download site to this one...a bit darker

If its possible to make them as new objects that would be great.

What I really need is a selection of plates for making docks.
I liked the earlier version which were darker and more "dirty"

Could there be more sizes made?

Some long ones. I think the width is about right.

--and more selection of curves --- I ask for too much

[fabianfred]

it is easy to make these available as a seperate new set.....but I am not able to re-size them or alter their shape


at present this mod will change them all globally to this new colour...

to make a new version

just open the new folder in your MODS folder......and rename the concrete folder to concrete2.....

then add these lines to the bottom of your static.ini

with this mod...since I have already extracted the tga files....you can just load them into Photoshop and colour them yourself...then just Save...

Many thanks. That will keep me busy.
