I am currently exploring various possibilities for making a town. I don't want a heavily armed fortress, but a farming town, with two roads crossing through it. My question is: Should I make stone walls for it, or no walls, really? As I siad, I want it to look like a trading post, and a farming town. I am currently considering basic stone walls - no towers. Additionally, if I do make walls, should I try to make them on a hill-like ring around the town? |

Farm/trade post eh.. well IMO the wooden fence would work well.. |

i don't think walls would work to well..maybe try making some gardens..and making the village very open but then the surrondings have an abundance of trees |

That could work too.. ![]() |

Where is your town going to be? Just my idea, but if you are making a town that will be sieged it would be cool to make the walls destructable, although I dont know how to do that. but I agree with lenko the wooden fenses would work well too. |

Hey lenko are you that guy who made that dumb a$$ cinematic? That was just a waist of time and a waist of clicking on a link? ://// |

Wood fences would work well, although if you were really serious you could get someone to make a model of their own fence. In TFT, you can make anything in the game a doodad or a unit, so you could have them fall down and stuff, but it would probably look bad, cuz there's no death animation for a fence. You'd need an animator. STFU Mephisto and Lenko, I think I recognize the red part of your sig...Where'd you get that? |

Mephisto: Yes i'm the one that wasted your time with my stupid cinematic.. i guess.. i dont want to start anything so just please stop being an a$$ to me.. hey im trying to start cinematics and the first isnt always good. Chicken_Soup: Its part of the background i use that came with my puter ;) maybe you saw it in your backgrounds? |

Yes, I've pretty much settled on wooden fences here and there. The town won't even be surrounded completely - there will entries into the said fences, ect. I have one other question: How does one have more different tiles then WorldEdit allows? Does that mean I have to use USME? |
| 08-12-2003, 04:07 PM | #10 |
for different tile sets just look under the advanced settings in the world editor |
| 08-12-2003, 04:51 PM | #11 |
But they only let me have up to 12 different tiles (And some tiles require 2 slots) What I'm looking for, is getting over the 12 slot cap. |

Ill look into it and see if i can find a way to get more than twelve.. |
| 08-12-2003, 08:13 PM | #13 |
Just choose tiles that only take up one slot. |

You can't replace, or add the red tiles, and some of them take up 2 slots. Look at the COTN part 4, scene 2 pallete: It has 24 worth of slots. |

DK prolly has a program or something like that that allows him to do that... |
