  • I am still planning out how some of the jobs I want to add will work, along with how they will if no one is actively employed as them. As ideally they revolutionize some things that players are not fond of, but does make it so players are more engaged with the city as a whole. But that may come in future updates after the initial scheme is set up.

    This status is for anyone who disagrees or has some generic questions with the taking away of some (3-4) ownable properties. Valid reasons for disliking must be written down, liking this status means nothing.

    the problem is those large buildings are also the only places large orgs can base without taking up 3 apartments at the same time, other that office.

    I made this message too long (increase character limit for profile comments pls)
    Here’s a pastebin of what I had to say: https://pastebin.com/g77uqiZh

    I don't disagree that they are useful for larger orgs but also without modifying the map they are the buildings that both fit the theme of the potential jobs and the size of things required for them. I would say editing the map would be best but that's outside my expertise and takes a lot longer to do.
    Are people still looking for legal jobs with good pay and help contribute to the community at large? Even if it comes at the cost of us having to use some properties that are privately ownable currently. It would turn them into NPC businesses but with access to these jobs and some of the tasks they entail. This is not final but likely what it takes.

    When this idea has been more polished I will be making more an official poll on this. But for now I need to roughly gauge how people feel about that. As I don't like taking away player options but at the same time they're the most logical means for this to happen. If you disagree please give valid reasons why.

    So the more responses the better. I will not be giving details about what it is, but I will say it has impacts for a lot of things if we want it to but we can scale it up over time, so it will originally start as jobs then perhaps grow from there.
    Hello, would you happen to know if weather effects are making a comeback? I saw that you mentioned that it would be a pain to reimplement them if chosen to do so.
    This looks 100000000000000x better and please add it to the normal model? it's already been done. especially for the most expensive car in the game.
    Hey man, since you're working on cars and textures a lot lately, can something like this be possible as well, from a technical standpoint that is? Thanks : )

    Not really, given how lighting works in Source and how we have to manipulate values to fake a day/night cycle, having pure white would mean at times it gets entirely blown out and the car becomes nothing but white with no other detail. That's why even at the lightest it stays a light grey, so then when it is at fullest brightness it maintains some details. Vice versa for black values.
    While this is closer than you generally would be to someone's face, what do you guys think if I try upscaling the face textures (and maybe others as needed)? It won't fix the geometry issues with droopy eyes or talking chins, but it can at least make things look a bit cleaner.

    Yes I did, I also changed some other parts on it, to fit with more of the blue theme I like to use for PH.

    Looks very nice, clean. good work :)
    TDM material fixes are going live. I also completed some other things that you may notice right away and some others are upcoming, as I was going to push some extra changes, but I noticed there are a number of things waiting in the wings for a larger update so those will wait until then. If there are really bad ones, please let me know but I tried to ensure it all is as good as I can reasonably do.
    While it's not practical for me to do at this time as it's a ton of steps to do (more than I already do for just fixing what there is now), I have done a bit of testing to make a couple car's rim textures much nicer. Here is a preview of the results on the Nissan 350Z. So if some are really bad I will do them after I finish material update.

    For anyone that owns the Holden HSV W427 (the one with the red interior) how important is it that the interior stay red?
