Hello all,
There won't be any updates the upcoming two weeks as I will be on a vacation to Italy for two weeks starting this saturday. As my former vacation wasn't that fun as both me as my girlfriend had Corona, we will probably enjoy the n...

To fix the 'problem' with the water vfx falling on top of the small CL waterwheel, I've separated the original support from the world debug house.
This wooden support also comes with a gutter from which water flows down on the waterwheel. Ri...

I've finished the thumbnails for all items I made so far for this pack.
To easily find all items I made for this pack in your game whenever it will be released, you can simple type "Waterwheel" into the search bar for every item to pop-up in th...
I've mentioned before that there might be a few recolors of the supports that don't match that well with the colors of the small waterwheel.
In the above images you see 2 wooden recolors I've changed to make them to match better. The l...

In my last post I mentioned I found a few new problems with the waterwheels.
These problems have now been fixed.
In the images above you see how the waterwheels with support will look when placed against a wall on the grid.
The first...
I've found a few new problems with all waterwheels.. Each time I think everything works as it should new things pop-up. So the things I need to fix first now:
Placing Against Walls
I just noticed that all supported versi...
Supported Small Waterwheel version
Now the small waterwheel also has a supported version! As there are no strange big holes on the other side of the waterwheel (which was the case with the large waterwheel), I was able to add t...
Small Waterwheel
A sneak peek on the final waterwheel of this pack, the Cottage Living Small Waterwheel. As can be seen in the image above, I already made it placeable on water surfaces. I've also made it able to produce power,...
CL Waterwheel Large + Short wall
Finaly worked on the Waterwheel pack again today.
About the image above, as it's been a while since I've worked on this pack, I decided to first try to create a nice example of how the large ...
Hello all,
I've finished replacing my banners accross my socials with new ones! Not all look exactly the same as each social media platform uses a different banner size. Therefore some animals might pop-up in another place on the banner when...

Hello all,
I just finished the banner which I wanted to place on Tumblr and YouTube, but I just found out it's too small for on YouTube... :(
So I need to find out the right size and then try to recreate this one more or less.
But it'...

Just a small sneak peek at the new banner I'm working on right now which is going to be used on YouTube and Tumblr. The banners here on Patreon and Twitter use different sizes, so they will be a bit different then the others.
I think this ...
Hello all,
Some time ago during my Covid-illness, EA updated their modding policy and while the biggest part of it was about early access (Which I barely offer here on Patreon), a small part was also about what can and can't be used while pr...
2022-08-08 14:40:45 +0000 UTC View PostHi all,
Just wanted to let you know, that's I'm not feeling that well yet. I have a soar throat for days now and I'm very low on energy (probably also as sleeping isn't going that well). This makes that I haven't worked and won't be working ...
2022-07-31 15:58:26 +0000 UTC View PostLast week my girlfriend walked the Walk of the World for the first time, here in The Netherlands. Normally this means walking 40km each day for 4 days long. As there was a heatwave though, only 3 days were left.
I'm very happy and proud to ...
Hello everyone,
Walk of the World
This week will be another week with barely updates unfortunately (except from the one I shared earlier today).
The reason is because my girlfriend will be walking 'The Walk of the Worl...
Instead of making the dark concrete look lighter, I've changed it into a rusty steel look. It's the same texture as where the axle in the middle is made of. So it still looks very dark, but at least it matches the steel in the middle now. :)

Wooden Recolors
From the the three wooden supports I made for the GT waterwheel, I changed the first 2 to make them better match with this large CL waterwheel.
For the first one I borrowed the texture of the waterwheel it...

The other thing I've worked on today was adding the same kind of support to this larger waterwheel as I've added to the smaller one from the Get Together EP.
I've first tried adding the support to both sides, but as the other side of the wat...

Sorry for the delay, but finally had some time to work on the waterwheels again today. :)
Cottage Living Waterwheel - Large
In the image above you see the large waterwheel that came with the Cottage Living expansion pack....
First of all, when looking at the example builds above, don't look at their surroundings. Especially not for the second one as I build them on a lot in New Crest.
I wanted to make two simple examples for making custom supports with platform...
So now that I finished the textures for the supported version of the GT waterwheel last week, I thought it would be good to also make one without the supports, so you can make your own. Therefore I tried simply cloning the supported version and de...

So here are the ones that took me the longest to make. The problem with most of these, was that the edges would look strange with stones not lining up. So I've added some cement to the edges to make it look less disturbing.
It might look a b...

So here are the wood recolors I made. Besides the first wooden texture, I've tried to make two recolors of that same wood with a different color tone. The one on the second screenshot should be looking quite the same color as the waterwheel does a...

Spend quite some time on creating the support recolors today. Besides making the wood recolors and natural stones recolors, I also decided to recolor the concrete look.
In my opinion especially the second recolor looks even better then the f...
2022-06-30 20:45:05 +0000 UTC View PostJust wanted to let you know I've been working on changing the textures I shared before, but I'm not quite happy with it yet. Also I want to add some stone textures before sharing the results.
As for the Concrete texture, I'm trying if I can ...

New Concrete Look
Icemunmun finished the new UV-map, so today I could play a bit with new textures. Something I didn't thought about, was that because of the new UV-map, the old concrete look changed it's appereance on the obje...
Hello all,
Finally found some time to work on the waterwheel again. This sneak peek is all about the extra vfx I've added to the GT waterwheel, so it looks better when placed on the water surface.

Hello all,
I'm back from my vacation, but had an incredibly busy week which gave me no room to work on the waterwheels pack unfortunately. I didn't even had time to look at my photos I made during the past week, so I guess I wil do that firs...

As I will be on a vacation for the upcoming week, there won't be any new posts.
My next update about the waterwheels will probably be about extra vfx added to the GT waterwheel as it only has some water drops falling of the...
