Pyramiden Barracks

Description
For some reason this description has been reset to the placeholder text.

I don't remember what I had written when I posted it, but in a nutshell this is a reskinned version of one of the games vanilla houses, meant to resemble the ones that can be still seen in the abandoned Soviet settlement of Pyramiden, Svalbard.

Construction requires more wood and fewer bricks, and hence is cheaper than the vanilla version.

Note: the footpath connections are set to be very close to the doors, and as a result can be difficult to define ingame, make sure you're drawing the footpath perpendicularly to the wall, and allow for enough room so that they don't immediately snap to the road.

Update (21/11/19): New improved skin of a Pyramiden-inspired barracks is available. On top of increased decoration, the vanilla windows are replaced by textures also retrived from Pyramiden, giving it a fresher look. More fancy, more fresh, higher quality living, but also more expensive ;)

so I checked and I don't see what you mean, they're the same size they've always been, same as the vanilla brick residential at 77%, on which they're modeled.

hmm, just saw your comment. I'm afraid I can't do that, as this is not a building I made myself, it's one of the vanilla buildings for which I made new textures. Maybe the building has changed since I did it? It was 5.5 years ago I see :'')
I have not seen how these look in years, and I remember there had been some updates on the vanilla buildings, so maybe it's not obsolete. I might check some day.

I like these a lot, but they seem too large. Could you scale them down a bit so they'd match the scale of vanilla residential buildings?

Thank you very much for this mod Comrade Joe !!! I use it a lot, it is a very useful mod for me. Glory to the Siberian pioneers! :steamhappy:

It surely is.
First of all, you can already use them without turning them into mods. If you activate "cheat mode" (press C+H+E), and then with the buildings tab open hold ctrl+B you can have access to the old buildings, churches and customs to build as any other.
If you want to turn them into mods, all you need to do is find the relevant game files (the 3d models and textures, etc, as are the files any other mod), and add them to the game as new items, with any changes in the design you fancy :)

Hey, you know the really old buildings that come with the game, like in the map editor for example, is it possible to release them as working mods? So we could make old cities :steamhappy:

I don't understand what you mean, however the building works perfectly if you can dedicate 3 to 5 seconds when defining the foot path to make it work.

Why, the game is ultimately given with its objects by the creator. Too bad, the beautiful objects of you can not be used for me:steamsad:

As I explained in the description the foot connection works but only in a narrow direction exiting the building, close to perpendicular. This happens because I tried to reduce the gap between the path and the house as much as possible.

Foot connection does not work, error message: building in the way
