Lobster Fishing Props

It's May. The spring lobster fishing season is well under way.

As props will be taking on an increased importance with the upcoming DLC, I thought I'd get a few scenic type props ready in case your walking tours take you through an area where lobster fishing occurs. I grew up around lobster fishers, so I've kind of wanted to do something like this for a while. You don't need any DLC or anything else for this, they're just standard props. Use with More Beautification, or add them to your own custom assets.

Maritimers or people from the northeastern coastal U.S. states will recognize most of this stuff.

In this prop pack you will find six props. One 36-foot lobster boat on stilts, not a floater unfortunately (I'm not going through the hassle of making a floating boat until it becomes a bit easier); two lovely bait shacks, a net and set of buoys, a traditional lobster trap, or lobster pot - as well as a pile of box-shaped lobster traps.

If you use Find it!, type 'Lobster' into the search bar for props and you'll see these.

The textures for each prop contain all the necessary maps for each effect.

N.B. A few of these props, namely the single trap have lots of tris and are heavier than I think props should be for this game. But honestly, I couldn't find a way to make them look like they should without the geometry. Finding a middle ground with the boat wasn't easy either. You've been warned. They won't cause you any problems - but they are more than they should be. I guess, just don't go nuts with the traps. You'll be fine.

The textures here range between 512 and 128 for main meshes and 128 and 32 for LoDs. The lobster trap, which is the worst of the bunch for its size has 338 tris on the main model. The boat has about 770 - curved surfaces. I did the best I could to optimize it.

Thanks again, please enjoy. And please let me know if you encounter problems with the upload.
