Prypiat lamp

Description
A street lamp inspired by the street lamps in Prypiat, Chornobyl. Replaces the regular lamp and the trolleybus lamp. The mod includes a backup of the old lamps, no need to bother doing it by yourself.

MANUAL INSTALATION NECESSARY!!!

How to instal
1: Go to this folder (the most common way)
----- C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\784150\2043672512
2: Select the folder "paths" and press CTRL+C to copy the folder
3: Go to this folder (the most common way)
----- C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\SovietRepublic\media_soviet
4: Press CTRL+V to paste the folder and update the old "paths" folder
5: Enjoy the lamps!

How to get back the original lamps
1: Go to this folder (the most common way)
----- C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\SovietRepublic\media_soviet\paths\backup
2: Select theese files and press CTRL+C to copy them
----- "lampa.nmf", "lampa.mtl", "lampa.dds"
3: Go to the previous folder ("paths") and press CTRL+V to paste the files and replace the old ones
4: Congratulations, now you have the old lamps!

This mod should not corrupt the game in any way if installed correctly. If you are not sure how to do it, do it only on your own risk.


FAQ:
Q: "Prypiat" and "Chornobyl"?
A: Yes, that's the correct Ukrainian transcription.

Q: Will you also release it as a monument?
A: Unfortunely not, this mod exists because street lamps are "very stupid" models, monuments are different and I don't know how to make them.

Q: How about lamps at parking lots etc.?
A: The mod doesn't replace those lamps since they are a part of the building model, it would be necessary to replace the whole buildings.



CONCLUSION
This mod happened "by a lucky accident". I tried to replace the lamps only just for fun and it surprisingly made a good result. Excluding streetlamps (and maybe power poles), I have no idea, how to make working models for this game.

Hmm, depends on the shape of the lamp. I mean, the light effect has one location and there's no way to change it, so the new lamp must have the light bulb at the same location as the original lamp.

Nice lamps :) Could you help me create polish lamps from 70's? I have .skp and .dae models for it but know nothing about 3d modeling and looking for someone who can make it.
Cheers

Well, one could hope.:armchair::kopi:

I was thinking about it, I'm not sure if it's possible. The sidewalk seems to be a new layer which appears along with the lights, the "sidewalk" without lamps seems to be the gravel texture which lays under the asphalt (not the regular gravel, the one you see when the asphalt is being laid). Changing the asphalt texture could do it but it still wouldn't look as good as the sidewalk with lamps.

OK, I see now. Thanks. I was looking everywhere.:cfacepalm: I'd like to see them without lights. It just looks nice. Maybe a Mod in the future?:md_smile:

You get that nicer sidewalk only if you build road with street lights.

Hmm, when I'm in first person view I seem to get This.

The sidewalk in the images from the first person view? That's vanilla sidewalk.

I like the sidewalk in pic #1 & #2 of this mod. Where can I get that? It's far nicer looking than the vanilla version. I have a couple of road texture mods, but they don't seem to use them.:winter2019sadbulb:

Simply, I've been already trying to rebuild Prypiat, what we are seriously missing is the apartment building "121-60-25"
