TESTED: well, dewshine, the recolour works fine, but there's no catalogue thumbnails now. That's kind of important, so I'm going to try to figure out why they aren't showing up. Let me know if you can tell my why, otherwise I'll figure it out, but I'm holding off on putting these at the top till I have thumbnails.

Hey Great work dewshine! I'm going to download these recolour packages, test them, and then provided they work for me, I'm going to put them at the top of the thread.

Yep I know. But this is the beta forum, so please look at what I did and see if you can figure it out. If you can then tell me how you did it so that I can add that step of the rest of what I'm doing!....I can't seem to find info that indicates that this is a problem except for something Dr. Pixel was working on and he never posted how he fixed it. I'm sure I'm missing something very simple.

Thanks for the compliments Owai and Brass. It's all due to those fab domes of course, Brass.

Owai, no I don't have it up for download but I'll make it available to you if you like. Let me finish up the interior walls first though. Furnished or unfurnished?

Woot! I got the problem with the missing thumbnails fixed!. Lookie! *dances around the room* And I didn't loose the recolor options either. (the old brown color won't work unless I remake it but the texture isn't the best anyhow). Here is a pic of the updated progress. I'll get the small dome fixed and go back to the medieval fair...Do you want the castle roof pieces enabled too, Brassex?

dewshine! You are getting very good at this! You have my blessing to do the castle roof pieces if you want, I like black, but I'm sure that others would like white, red, green, blue...

Thanks alot!

You are so welcome! I would love to do a haunted castle or victorian so recolors of the castle pieces are a must,

Here are the fixed domes, thumbnails and all, with 3 recolors each. I still can't get the gold right, but that may be due to the fact that the material definition needs to be altered to be shiny...something I'm not ready to tackle yet. But I did remake the brown, and came up with a copperish tone in addition to a streaked version of your sandstone color. ...enough rambling, here you go...

The files are in the first post!

Motoki, there are 3 that I made included in the rar. I have done a test of a metallic gold (using the ingame reflections) and it works. I'm going to make a bunch of metallic domes today. There was a request for a mosic covered dome too, and I am searching for the perfect texture for it. Once I find it I'll put it up. Would anyone like the castle roof pieces in metal too? I think I'm gonna do them also. I'm thinking, Gunmetal blue, silver, gold, copper, white, black, ... LOL

Here is the first teaser picture of the gold metallic roof recolors and my attempt at a mosaic one.

They will be posted in the recolor forum. recolors here
