[New Town Mod] Refugee

International board Content creation
#142

@riindlit I guess there’s a mod within your list that modify these neutral creatures and create the issue.

Here’s the mods I’m using too that I know are compatible:

Expansions : HoTA, WoG

Towns : Coutryard, Grove, Asylum, Cathedral, Fairy, Ruins, Haven, Forge (MDT & Heavenly 2000), Cetacea.

Other : Graphical, artifacts, objects/terrains & translation mods should be good. Neutral Heroes is ok.

The mods below should be fine :

Towns : Retreat, Abyss, Death Valley, Preserve, Pavilion, Tartarus, & Highlands towns.

Misc. : Tides of War, tok Extras, Creature Flugels, Campaign Heroes.

My guess would be that the issue come from overriding rogue’s “upgrade” data inside a .json file, which should be caused by either :

  • Axoloth Creatures Pack : Because of creature “Thug”; or
  • Antagarich Burning - map assets : Because of creature “Cutthroats”.

Please try disabling one of this mod at a time, and tell me which one is incompatible with Refuge town.

When it comes to translations, I’m not working on these files at all.
I will need a screenshot of the errors or a log to understand the issue.

Or it could be because I changed a lot and lot of things,
but this should be good for later versions as this town is now in a “stable” phase.

I might have forgotten to re-enable some translations inside “mod.json” though.

since 1.1 it is one of the most interesting towns, alongside with courtyard.

Hi,

I have worked on other town mods because the other mods needed more improvements. I have also rescored the town themes but I like the theme of Refugee. Here are some advices I can share:

  • It seems that the Watchtower is rendered on the map with vanishing points (perspectives à 3 points de fuite) whereas it should be rendered in isometric. You can do that in Blender.
  • You can upscale a sprite with SUPIR to work on it more easily.
  • I should redraw the marketplace using inpainting AI when I will get time but there are so many things to improve else where…

Good Route has no flying units, Is it possible to change T6 Enchanters to some flying creature?
Or give a siege ability to Dragolems to break down walls?

Hello Yuya!
There was recently added a new terrain to the New Terrains Mod, that would a great as a native terrain for Refuge. I mean Plateau. It’s actually very similar to the “rough”, so I it wouldn’t change of overall appearance of the town, but it could get it’s own, special terrain.

Hawk made recently a video about new terrains on the youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_VwtN5Pt5U

I am interesred, what do you thnik about it.

It’s better to ask terrains creators to make another town-connectors in newterrains-pack

#152

Yes, but it’s kind to ask the town’s author for permission. :slight_smile:

#153

These new terrains looks good. Yes, it would be a nice addition to add a “Refuge connector” so people that has both my town and “new terrains mod” would be able to connect these two mods.

I will let the author of “New terrains mods” make this connection if he’d like to.

@ftiercel I don’t think blender would work since I’m working on a full 2D-setup. Every lightning I did is done by hands on Photoshop. I will try to fix that in the next patch.
@leozx Thanks for your feedback. I will try to find a solution for the next patch.
@misiokles Thanks for the update with better compatibility system. It’s very helpful !

Hello!
For some reason, in VCMI, I cannot seem to upgrade rogue to cutthroat. Would you please take a look at this? Thank you very much!

#160

Hello! I am trying out a new fix. If it works, I will fork the branch and push it to the main branch. Thank you so much for this faction!

#161

Known issue, already fixed in currently unreleased update.

Though, since the new update is taking me some times, I will release a hotfix :+1:
