VectoRaith's Traditional Javanese Buildings Tileset Pack Update v1.005


Update v1.005 for VectoRaith's Traditional Javanese Buildings Tileset Pack is now available!
A major update to catch up with the entirety of VectoRaith design style changes. It includes these following:
- Redraw of original set (Building 1 set) to adjust with new style
- Style adjustment for better modularity based on standalone Modular Buildings Tileset Pack
- This allow this series to take advantage for partial modularity design
- Modularity allow better customization in the future
- Partial modularity allows more natural collision feel when used in-game compared to full modularity
- Partial modularity also gives easier customization compared to full modularity
- Please keep in mind that although I designed the new sets to be partially modular and swap-friendly, modular use of the tilesets may reduce or even nullify swappability between corresponding set. Swappability is always 100% if you use the building design as is.
You stil can find and use the old tileset that is placed and renamed in the same folder
Dev Notes:
It's been a long time since I last visited this architectural type. The reasons of why it was not updated quickly unlike the other Buildings Tileset Pack lie on the traditional Javanese architecture itself:
- Traditional Javanese architecture does not have 2-story or any other towering buildings, much until the arrival of Colonial Era, thanks to the earthquake-rich locale with slow realization of the importance of earthquake-resistant technology. From the perspective of tileset making, this make the development of buildings set 3 almost impossible.
- The designs are too vernacular. For example, there is significant difference in building walling and roofing between normal house and meeting hall. The normal house itself also can have different roofing style based on the caste and aristocratic level! This vernacularity make it almost impossible to simplify them into one common design.
- Traditional Javanese buildings examples on the internet are often too aristocrat-centric! This is very bad, since the tileset series must encompass common buildings in the society. I have to really visit some rural area to solve this problem alone...
That's all for now, happy tilemapping!
