Sneak Peek Image - GT Waterwheel - No Support (Patreon)
Content
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 deleting the supports, but that didn't work unfortunately because of some trouble with the object meshes. So I had to make it from scratch and copy everything over except for the supports. Took a bit more time then planned..
About making your own supports, you can either use walls, short walls or platforms. The advantage of making your own supports, is that you can choose your own wallpaper for around these supports. For the platforms you first need to place a short wall around it, before you can use wallpapers on them. I will work on some example buildings later this week.
The other thing I worked on today were the custom catalog thumbnails. Because as I said before, VFX don't show on the thumbnails the game generates itself. So I had to make screenshots of all waterwheels and cut them out to make them into custom catalog thumbnails. As these are quite small, you will have to wait for the release and/or a video to be able to see them.
