Cities Xxl Community Mod [project]

Following this discussion:
64 x Furnitures - XXL - by Ieyasu and by Karaaib

As suggested by Monty, could you help us update the CM to add additional buttons
Can we start by improving the decoration menu, by making the buttons of the "IUM"?
Thank you for your answer!

 

Very very Good news,

Tonight, i work on the images for the buttons,
for the "tags" can we use the same as XL?

 

Here are the tags and icons XXL




Inspired version "XL"

Code:

<Tag>GemCity;Decoration;Furniture;MS18</Tag>

<Tag>MS18;GemCity;Areas;Decoration;Nature</Tag>

<Tag>MS18;GemCity;Areas;Decoration;Plaza</Tag>

<Tag>MS18;GemCity;Areas;Decoration;Tile</Tag>

<Tag>MS18;GemCity;Areas;Decoration;Texture</Tag>

@Altiris
You will find all these, download here:
Dropbox - buttons CM XXL.rar

Thank you very much,

 

Is this a mod or just thumbnail images?

 

I do not know what to tell you of more
Have you read the previous post?

 

Drazicdesign,
Totally cool that you and others are working on including more of the XL UIM in the XXL CM. I'm also glad Altiris is willing to help in this venture. Definitely great that it looks like you're going to expand decoration sections so the many decoration items have more places to be separated into. I do hope we can get the Entertainment button too, it was under Commerce - Leisure - Cultural I think. A lot of XL mod buildings that could be brought into XXL.

 

Radiant Dawn,
These are just thumbnail images. Hopefully they will be incorporated into a new CM that will allow decoration items to be separated into more sections thus thinning out the selection under any one button.

 

bluejeans,
The sandbox makes all maps have unlimited resources, in other words resources won't be limited to certain areas of a map.

 

Wow thanks, great job.
It works very well,

I have two questions,
1 / Is it possible to have the upgrades "lamp", "wall", "bench", "trash" as in the XL version?

2 / Is this normal, that this version 2.09 is lighter than version 2.08?

 

Thanks for the update Altiris. If you don't mind i'm also trying the patch.
What would be the tag for this one? Furniture instead of Areas, for example?

And how about the Areas, can you specify the tags. I recall in xl you could put areas/tile (or something like this), and it would only appear once tiled areas were activated...

 

Altiris,
Thanks for adding the additional filter buttons! Now finding decorative items is a little easier. I really love how there's a section now where 2 of my 3 parking lot mods sit nearly alone, that cuts down on many, many clicks searching for parking lots at the end of the list. My wrist thanks you! The one parking lot mod that doesn't seem to show up in the new area is the Small parking Lot for XXL V1.0 by Supersnake, it has many versions of very small parking lots. Looks like now it'll be a matter of time before some furniture mods are updated to use the new buttons.

Thanks also to Drazicdesign for creating those graphic buttons! I like his suggestions about having those 4 other buttons done so we have a few more sections to split up all of the many furniture items into.

I'm excited that some are working to bring the XL UIM to the XXL CM. That would help make many of my XL mods work the way they're supposed to.

 

1/
Here a example in Cities XL:
With this wall selected, a menu is available to perform an upgrade,

In "Cities XL" it is the same functioning, with the benches, the trashs, the lamps.


Here tags:
- For the walls

Code:

<Tag>Decoration;MS18;Furniture;GemCity;BuildingUpgrade;Wall;UP_1</Tag>

- For the trashs

Code:

<Tag>Decoration;MS18;Furniture;GemCity;BuildingUpgrade;Trash;UP_1</Tag>

- For the lamps

Code:

<Tag>Decoration;MS18;Furniture;GemCity;BuildingUpgrade;Lamp;UP_1</Tag>

- For the benchs

Code:

<Tag>Decoration;MS18;Furniture;GemCity;BuildingUpgrade;Bench;UP_1</Tag>

Believe it is possible to get the same functionality in Cities XXL?

 

Thanks Altiris. Very important addition allowing more organized menus.

 

I really like upgrades! So nice to have multiple items stored under one item in a selection from a button, then one can access item and choose which upgrade is desired. I love the way Drazicdesign did his Animations Ploppable mod where there's one menu item that has about 28 different upgrades.
