More Frame Houses

Post by benpark »

2 Story frame style houses for German and Hungarian maps. I'm nearly done with what I need for late war villages.

The 3 with double chimney are farm house type free standing houses. The others are meant to be abutted to make a row of houses that make up the center of a village. This will allow a greater squad capacity and choice of placement in a smaller area for (hopefully) better urban fighting.

Roof distortion not in model.

Rob, I was thinking of your two story house piggyback when I made 'em.

Lemme know if you need anything specific that doesn't have too many weird angles, and I'll try my hand at it.

Ben,

Here's what I'm thinking for more urban buildings ...

1) your model's above but with a flat roof.
2) a 1-story version ,flat roof.

This way you can stack two 1-Story (4 squad building, 2 / floor) or stack a 2-Story creating a 4-story (4 squad building, 2 / 2 floors).
Or, stack three 1-Story for 6 squads, 2 per floor.

These could be special buildings (used for stacking) which do not contain a door graphic.

If you want to go further than perhaps a Basement level ... ie, small windows on top, no doors.

Any thoughts?

EDIT NOTE : Don't go too crazy with the stacking idea because I don't know if it'll work at all (ie, can we select the upper structure without being placed in the lower structure, a clicking problem mostly). The only way I know it works is when you can select the upper structure (ie click on it) when the lower structure is classified as having height. I've tested this by taking a watch tower and placing it on top of a factory building that has height ... I was able to mount the tower after the troops climbed up on top of the factory.

Very interesting idea.

I'll make up some tests and we can see what's what.

Maybe we can see if "sewers" are also possible.
