It might be a 4.0 bug since it also seems to be happening with shipsets and every portrait mod. No worries though, take your time!

I'm away for a good few weeks. It's very odd that random empires are using them. I can't really do anything until I get back in front of my PC. I think it will be an easy fix though.

For some reason random empires can spawn with these as a graphical culture, and since some of them are missing default_ship, those empires can't create any ships or ship templates (besides defense platforms.)

I noticed this with "tee_18" and "nest."

Are this mod compatible to Planetary Diversity?

Как же круто!

Sorry for two such quick updates. There was a small edit needed to the set in the second image. One of the buildings looked a bit out of place so I had to blend it in better with the rest. If you don't see the change, unsub and resub. Sometimes the workshop doesn't register such small changes.

Once I've got to 24 cities I plan to go back and refine all of the sets so that they blend in better with the planet backgrounds, but that's not going to be for a while.

Anyway, I hope the newer ones are to people's satisfaction.

@tilarium Correct

OMG, that's so neat ^^

@little_tree wait… they finally put in a way to have city sets, ship sets, and portrait sets without having to have fall back versions of others?

for reference look at subterranean_01 and solarpunk_01

Awww class! I'm gonna use it for my mod too.

So in addition to the tag 'has_city_graphics = yes/no' in graphical_culture.txt, there is also a 'generate_shipset = no' tag in species_class.txt

Either I didn't see it or it was added with 4.0. Either way, there are now no 'ghost' shipsets in this mod

@Little Tee hey, this mod is awesome! Thank you for update!

I have a suggestion for the "issue" with shipsets, I've send you friend request and can help you out with it. If you interested give me a shout :)

Well done!

@Sugar & Spice
They work fine for me.

These no longer seem to be working, no descriptor files...?

This is a must have for any City Set mod for Stellaris hands down :)

Was looking for something like this for so long you. Thank you!

Beautiful art, my friend. Certainly will be putting this one to great use!

Hello, I've created an Italian translation. I know there's not really much to translate but it was mostly a way for me to learn how to make translations. I'll move onto bigger projects next. Still, if you want you can add a link to my translation

Oh fair
I have always wanted to make a standalone mod for the ST; Infinite clothing
could never figure out how though
so if you do that i'll keep an eye out

@SalmonFeet - It's not. It's from Bronze Age Pre-FTL in ST: infinite. If I ever do anything serious with clothes, I'll probably upload them, but for now it seems silly to upload one piece of clothes.

@Little Tee what what mod adds the clothes?

Based mod description. Looking forward for more.

I'll add you so we can discuss further

@Teamson: Thanks. Yes, they do.

Great job! Do they come with different levels of development?

Dope

@RMD🦆cc: I'd need a little more info, but sure, I'll give it a go.

Buildings. Maybe weapons too.

Regarding requests, I'll see what I can come up with.

@RMD🦆cc - what kind of icons?

primitive city sets are very underated, could you make 2 which includes pre industrial and post industrial ones? maybe variations for post industrial like a steampunk archictecture, even the 20th century style buildings

You got skills. Could I ask your help in making icons, please?

The cities are well done, i will give you a prize for that. Also, cna you make a "Solar Punk-ish" type of city. I mean, futurism with some nature? - Something like Vekta City from Killzone Shadowfall as a reference?

good on you for not using producing a.i vomit copy paste content ur process seems authentic and explorative. these r all quite fun !

@Tolga: It's from Remastered Elves.

Awesome new city additions! Don't get many new ones anymore, people don't seem to interested in making them.

nice mod where can i get the protrait ?

Just wanted to say I love the bluntness of the questions. Very based. Also great mod thanks!

@RMD🦆cc

A combination of Time, Gimp, Photoshop, Google, and also some help from AI.

At least one style (Image 5) is made from various building images already in the Stellaris files. I plan to refine that one a little - shading, saturation, and so on, and also make a few more using this method.

Another (Image 6) was taken from a city style in ST: Infinite, and if I'm honest, is the one I'm least happy with. I tried with the Romulan, Klingon, Federation, and Cardassian styles from that game, but they just don't 'feel' right, so I won't be converting those.

Finding or generating cool images is easy. Finding the 'right' images and then cutting and editing, and making them fit well into the game, not so much.

It's not a simple case of AI gen, copy, paste, upload, and I thank people for their nice comments.

These look great! How did you make them?

These are pretty cool, hope you make more soon

Damn thats some really nice city set you did wander why there is so few on the ws

Interesting. More cities design is always cooler !

As far as I'm aware, while it IS possible to have a ship set not have a city style, it's not possible to have a city style without a ship set. If that's incorrect, and someone knows how to do it, that's definitely something I'd fix.

A workaround I suppose would be to give each city style a fallback graphical culture that links to a ship set mod on the workshop that doesn't use/have a city style. The issue there is that this mod would then depend on updates of other mods, which is something I'd like to avoid.

@Spirit
Yes

i must ask: are there any blank shipsets included? a lot of ship and city mods have that issue.

ecumenopolis views inclusive ?

Good stuff

Thank you so much for these, normally you get new city backgrounds from different ship sets, new species or total conversions that are all hundreds of mega bytes if not several giga bytes.
So thank you!!!
