Here they are.
If you do this, try not to make the rooftops too pointy though...

I mean,the pictures you used. The bmp files. Add them to an archive and upload them to a file sharing site .If i save the pictures, directly from here , their quality will be poor.

Can I ask you how you did? The perspective tool in PS will change the treetop base size, and need recalibrate it manually. Please share

I see you sharpened the wooden walls as well... Good work
Thank you for this, I really appreciate it. When you're done post them on a sharing site too so that I can retrieve them.

Ready. I didn't had the background so i couldn't test them ingame.

@Salamandre . I never use perspective from free transform option.
I use instead copy/paste parts of building who need modification to match the new angle or perspective , and distort /skew them. Erase tool with different levels of flow and opacity .Clone stamp to add missing parts. And sometime i also need to manually paint some of them . Gaussian blur it's also a tool i use on new painted parts to soften the edges . Those are the most used tools i work with.

Yep... I made a little modification on the rooftops myself (making it more isometric, sharpening some edges) and I thing the result is good.
Thanks for your help. So what do you thing of it?

No its ok, I've been thinking about that myself...
I think the problem with the Thatched Hut is not the angle though. The problem is that being an external dwelling it needs some sharpening on the edges (it looks somehow too cartoony for a town screen).
I think I can solve the problem with some photoshop editing... Change some colors around, so that it may be more smooth...
Anyways, thanks for your support, I really appreciate it. I'll post when I have some more progress...

Hi all
An interesting modification, instead of creating an entirely new city, added new elements to the existing city. Just those buildings pirate average fit this city. Maybe it's better to replace them with anything else?
But apart from this very cool idea!.

Actually this mod isn't about just Conflux, the new dwellings is an addition to the mod I describe in page 1.
As for the Pirates, that's the jist of it. The Conflux is now a rogue town (that has a port by the way) and the existence of Pirates in such a town is more than appropriate. In fact in the version that is downloadable now there are no Pirates, but there will be in the update so that's why I made the dwelling

Thanks Ayreon, really appreciate it.
There will be an update (in which many aspects have been fixed) as I stated so stay tuned for more... In the update there will be the new Conflux town screen as well. I have changed the Danger Cove and Thatched Hut a bit... I think its now nearly completion ( If not so )

Yeah I changed it a thousand times and still ain't quite happy about it. But I don't think its that bad... The colors DO blend in though, as they are kinda the same as the mountains in the back. But anyway I don't know what else to do about it so...

Open the background in photoshop. Then add the cave in another layer .
Now set the layer opacity to 85 - 90% . See how is work.

I don't really get it... If that changes the colors that's not necessary, I think the colors are good... The shape of the Cave was what was bothering me, but then again after some games... I begin to like it the way it is. I think I'll keep it that way. Thanks anyway.
