Anyone know how to create a new city set?

[Kyriakos]

I can open the nif file, but it has a lot of buildings, and more importantly i do not see where their textures are. I suspect there is just one texture for all (a detailed uv-map) but ideally i would want to add textures individually. If this cannot be done though its not that great a problem.


By the way, when was the last time someone made a completely new city set for this game? I plan to have unique models (working on an elven set).

edit: any info about how to make the file is welcome of course...

People have made new citysets before. Some of them include: Hobbit, Cybernetic Consciousness, Data Angels, The Cult of the Planet, Drone, Lord's Believers, An entire pack of Ethnic Citystyles, Future, Dark Elf (Link broken), Gaia's Stepdaughters (Link Broken), Southeast Asian, Native, Sioux, Brother Lal from SMAC, and many, many more

I know they were made, the question was if they were made relatively lately, so that i can hope to get in touch with their creators

I beleive the only one who still is on the site that created one is hrochland otherwise i would look to mods like realism invictus

query about cityset I have not noticed , I answered just about the shade. I will send you by PM my secret recipe for a simple cityset making

 

[dacubz145]

Do you know if anyone has made an acient greek one yet? I have not seen one and there isnt in the ethnic cities mod (plus the mod is gone) so if no1 has seen that, that is what i would suggest

I never add citysets (but I want to soon) so i dont know which ones have been madee

Most of those who do good citysety is gone. Last , I think Freya for Hungarian mod. I do not know if Freya is still here ... : (

@Kyriakos / from firaxis is one texture for all buildings in cityset because other way would br too big. Old citysets worked by this way, when you changed path for texture in one NiNode (in NifSkope), program was change all paths in nif file.
Today you can make cityset with more textures but it will load the memory game I think. The Firaxis know why they selected this way
Maybe you can use one greater texture file...
