Dark Black Modular Rocks 2K

This is a pack of 26 unique rock models. These are huge assets suitable for covering mountains and creating cliff faces.

These were originally modeled by IceKazim. I licensed them through CGTrader, reduced the tri count on most of them, created even smaller LODs, and recolored the textures to match existing rock assets. I put a ton of work into optimizing and configuring these for modern Skylines standards.

Having done several maps for this game, rocks have always been my biggest creative bottleneck. This project is an attempt to address my landscaping needs once and for all. Hopefully, they'll address yours as well :)


This set is roughly matched to the dark color rocks by Avanya. I might have gone a *bit* overboard with the darkness, but these should work well underwater or for volcanic formations.


- Most of these rocks don't conform to terrain, so they can be raised and lowered with Move It to reside within or above the terrain as you wish. This allows you to ignore slopes entirely and build completely vertical or overhanging cliff faces.

- Most of these rocks have rendered bottoms, meaning you can hang them in the air. This increases their tri count, but provides a lot of flexibility. You can even build rendered caves!

- Every one of these is water friendly. No water glitching.

- I've balanced the LODs to look good from a distance without being unreasonably heavy.


- You'll need some sort of anarchy to place these on dry land. I recommend using Fine Road Anarchy 2 with anarchy active (CTRL A), which allows you to place these anywhere you want.

- I *think* you can find these in your road menu, because they're configured as road pillars for ... reasons. I'm bad at Mod Tools, okay? Just use Find It to pull them up.

- These require a bit more patience to use than traditional, terrain snapping rock assets, since by default they float in the air. Use Move It to nudge them into place.

- If you want to push the illusion even further, load them into the asset editor and place your choice of trees and bushes on top of them. Overhanging trees! In theory, this might work with the tree snapping mod as well, but I've never gotten that mod to work for me so I can't confirm.


- Main model tri counts: 360 - 7860

- LOD tri counts: 180 - 1178

- LOD texture size: 256 px


This version uses 2K textures for every asset. This takes up a fair bit of RAM, but the size is on-par with the vanilla rock formations, so if you can handle the vanilla rocks you can *probably* handle these. But if you're concerned about performance, a 1K version is available in the collection above.
