The required mod for this has been abandoned and the author explicitly states not to use it. Can this stadium be made to function without it?

Could you please create an NRL stadium?

Sub buildings are built into the asset editor now. Somebody needs to update these if the mod author won't

THIS IS BEAUTIFUL. ONCE I SUBSCRIBED TO THE LARGER FOOTPRINT MOD AS YOU INSTRUCTED IN THE NOTES ON YOUR PAGE HERE; IT WORKED GREAT.

Anyone know if this still works? Or if there are any other cricket grounds in the workshop - I couldn't see any

Is there any way to get this working again?

Richie Benaud would be proud ;-)

Hey mate just wondering if you plan to update this asset to use the newer Sub-Buildings Enabler mod. I notice boformer says its better not to use the older Larger Footprints (Snowfall).

What tab is it located in? I just went there to see a T20 Match!!!!!!

There are two variants.... hmmm guess ill just shut my big fat mouth. Cheers mate!

fit well in the -DOWN UNDER- all in one Collection:

@Shroomblaze: I don't know if a large building outside a grid can create bugs. When I made my first assets outside of the allowed grid (no LF), the terrain around them looked weird. I'll see to look into it before Christmas, possibly.

Hey whatif_85 I was wrong about the sub building enabler. You actually can keep the stadium as a solid piece. Drosovila did it with his latest stadium so maybe you might want to do that?

What about an australian football stadium ? It would be cool, too. ^^

OK, I see now. There might be a few other assets I may consider using the new mod, but this stadium should stay with LF. When I read 'deprecated' I expected bugs.

Just from how it works you'll probably not want to update. It uses a modular system of max 16x8 park sizes. So you would have to literally cut up your stadiums into section and make individual modular pieces and make them connect in a certain way for it to work. It's a lot of work for you Im sure having to cut the stadiums up and shit. Just better off using Larger Footprints and keeping it this way.

@Shroomblaze: I'll have to investigate the way it works before I re-upload the asset, though.

I still think larger footprints has merit.

well, the new mod has a limit of 16x8 modules so you would have to cut the thing in parts which might lead to a bunch of issues with normals and such.

@Shroomblaze: Thanks, I'll see to look into it next time.

Hey, They are looking really good now. I think the illumination on the field and seating looks super good! Glad you chose to do that. I have no issues with it and would use it regardless if you fixed this one tiny problem still. http://i.imgur.com/b2ThCOV.jpg You can see on the corners there is some random light still on the roof. Other than that I will still use these, thanks for the update!

Asset updated!

@Shroomblaze: Sounds good! I'm working on a workaround to place lights on all towers. Fingers crossed...

also another suggestion, Maybe you could add an illumination to the field itself? Maybe it might look good because the lights are supposed to be shining on the field. I'm not talking a big illumination, maybe like 1,1,1, - 5,5,5 range. Almost black, It might give off enough light to make it look like its being lit up. Worth a look I think.

Got it, thanks! Let's see if I can optimize asset size too in the process...

I save mine as PNG-24

Do you compress your .png files when saving on Photoshop?

Well, some of my recent things I've done in png format. Jpeg is still good imo (Maybe not for bigger assets) but not for the lod. I've found that using jpeg for lods with the new illumination system is just a bad idea. When you save the lod textures as jpeg you will get compression loss and have illumination issues. Best to save the lod textures as PNG for crisp illumination lines without and distortion.

@Shroomblaze: I got rid of the glowing lines, but the map still needs some tweaking before I update. What format do you use for your maps, compressed .png or high-quality .jpg? The game automatically compresses textures, but I want good quality and light files.

Ok, I'll see what I can do. Thanks!

I used black background on 120 areas and 192 on everything else, but probably the glowing lines may be the edges between 192 and black. I'll be fixing them soon. What about using an all-black background? Any differences from pre-AD?

(Sorry, I edited post while you were answering)

All black background will give you the lines around the edges of windows that glow a bit if you are trying to use the upper 128-255 range. Black background should be used for the lower 1-120 range and I actually like to keep the brightest setting at 118 instead of 120, I don't like it being so closer to the border there either because when I go to bake lod textures it might bleed into the 121 range.

ok, so for the glowing lines around the windows you can fix that by setting your entire background to 192,192,192. That will be considered no illuminated. Use that instead of black. For Diffuse colored illumination that is in the 120 and under range, then you use want to use a black background for those areas because I find that using 192 can cause problems when I go to bake lod textures. As far as your lined areas go I'm not sure how you created your model so I can't really give you advice on where to start to fix those. Hope you figure it out though.

@Shroomblaze I'm trying to understand how AD lighting works here. I read the guide here on Steam, but I'm still a bit confused about a few things.

Currently I have problems like these glowing lines you mentioned, others like 'bordered lit windows' and so on... all probably Photoshop/Asset Editor converting issues. Unfortunately, CSL takes a huge toll on my RAM and it's hard to use Photoshop as well. I'm still playing around with my other buildings in the meantime. Some people already managed to figure them out pretty nicely, but I'll see to keep my assets updated as I proceed. Thanks for your feedback!

Ok so I saw you reddit post and I have some critique. I've noticed on all of your large stadiums that they have these glowing lines all over them, you can see them in the tops of the lights, at the base and around the whole stadium in general some are big and some are small. Hoping you will fix these issues. Thanks! http://i.imgur.com/XnY27UF.jpg

AD'd!

sorry i see how that is confusing know but sorry after dark is what i mean

@Roryhg14 Our stadiums are ad-free. We are however working with the utility adviser about fixing our lighting system. Thank you for your patience!

ad?

You should consider making those giant stadium lights a stand alone asset. It would be really awesome to be able to place them wherever you want!

got it, and answered in other asset

Marvelous!
