Red/Yellow Round Rocks Cluster

Description
YOU MUST SUBSCRIBE TO Red and Yellow Round Rocks prop TO USE THIS ASSET

Rock Clusters 1 is a decorative asset to create awesome looking shores, river beds, bluffs and many other rocky scenery.

Credit and many thanks for these beautiful models and textures goes to Nobiax[nobiax.deviantart.com].

In order to be able to place rocks in the water while still being able to have them grouped close together and positioned relatively randomly they must be placed as props inside an asset. This is my improvised solution.

These are 9 rock props placed on circular 1x1 park assets each with random rotations. The size variety and orientation of the props results in random appearance when plopped and by rotating the asset while we lay many of them close to gether we're able to get a pretty tight rock formation that's not too repetitive.

They are modded to be placeable anywhere, don't spawn seagulls, and are flood-proof.

There are two versions: One with red and yellow tones in the rocks, and one with green and blue. The props comes with two shades in each of their colors and 18 different size possibilites for added variety.

Model is 200 tris with 1024 textures and 128 textures for the custom LOD's.

  • Menu position: Parks Menu
  • Cost/Maintenance: 0
  • Amount of Seagulls spawned: Massive.

IMPORTANT ISSUES:

Buildings object limit
These are "park" assets and as such each cluster you place counts as 1 item towards your buildings limit.
Prop rendering distance
These are prop based assets and props are not visible if you zoom out too far. Set "level of detail" setting to maximum in Graphic Options menu to increase this a bit but they will still disappear from far away.


This level of randomness in rock placement and overall variety is not possible with "building model" based assets as opposed to prop based because you'd need 20 different assets each with slightly different rock placements to achieve and there is also the problem of the rock model not sinking to bottom of water.

If you're looking for rocks that are visible from any distance this is not for you.

DISCLAIMER:

Prop textures optimized for, and Images taken using Temperate biome and BloodyPenguin's Daylight Classic mod. Can't guarantee perfect match for all biomes.

Enjoy!

Oddly enough after the ND update, these are causing trash trucks to fill up completely when they pass by. It's not just these, the single rocks of other assets are causing it too.

Not really, but I'll move them to the correct category when I get some time

I guess these are kind of deprecated due to 1.4?

You only need the props I linked if you want to use the clusters. For the stuff in the collection you don't need to do anything except subscribe and then find them in the Paths menu.
For clusters:
Step1: Download the props that I linked in previous comment
Step2: Download the clusters.
Step3: Go to content manager->Assets and enable the props and the clusters.
Step4: Open a city/map and use them

Well, maybe I fisrt have to DL Red/Yellow Prop, then Blue/Green Prop, then.. etc ?

Hi, still nothing ! I must be doing something wrong... But what :X
Katalepsis  [author] 25 Nov, 2015 @ 12:29am 
For these clusters to work, you need to download the required Items --> Red/Yellow Prop and Blue/Green Prop (which are not in the collection because I think they are ugly).

Hi TPB,thanks for your answer !
Yes, I have DL your collection, just no rock pops :( Even with the biggest zoom I do.
I got the icon in the paths menu, but nothing pop when I click on it. All the graph settings are maxed, I tried will all types of maps, nothing..
I also tried to draw road closed to the supposed rock place (the rock seems to be detected), but stillnot working.
An idea ? Would you need any more information ?
The pics I see everywhere with your rocks are just crazy ! NEED IT !
Thank again for your help !
