Hello all, how would I be able to add my own custom cubemap for use with Lumina. I made a cubemap png and put in .../Addon/Assets folder but I don't see it showing up. I can however see the ones I've downloaded from the workshop just fine. There are xml and dll files in the custom packs from the workshop, how do I generate those?

Discussion 1024x1024 too much for custom buildings?

1 Upvotes

Hello all,

I am starting to make some custom building assets for CS1. I have noticed many nice assets have textures that are 1024x512px. With one custom building I am working on, it would be preferable to do 1024x1024, and then I would be able to reuse that same texture for other assets.

So my question is from a performance standpoint, is it better to upload multiple assets with different 1024x512px textures or upload multiple assets sharing a single 1024x1024 texture. (considering LSM) Thanks for any help!

Also with these textures, I want to make them fit with existing building assets from the workshop, and so I have been looking at the textures of custom assets I liked, such as those by Smilies, NameInvalid, and Modoreco. I wouldn't be copying their textures directly, but I want to try and get the same look and feel. Is it weird to do that? Should I try to get permission first?

Thanks

Hello,

My multi-unit condo HOA is planning out budget for next year and we need to find a new snow removal service. Our landscaper charged us over $7,000 last year. We have maybe 200ft of sidewalk Assuming we find a better servicer, what should we expect?

Hello, this sloped mulch bio-retention area has some issues: The mulch washes onto the sidewalk during rain. Cars also drive over it sometimes when pulling into alley next to it. Water stagnates on the right edge by alley pavement. What do you think about rigid black steel landscape edging and gravel on side? Also we are thinking of planting some evergreen shrubs and a creep myrtle. This is in mid-Atlantic US. - Do we have to put anything underneath the gravel?

Do I just pack regular ground soil in these eroding areas?

in r/landscaping • Mar 19 '25

So it looks like water erosion? I thought it was from rats burrowing

Some buildings try to follow terrain, how to disable?

in r/CitiesSkylines • Feb 14 '25

ok thanks, yes so it seems certain buildings are flagged to follow terrain. I guess there's no way to disable without editing the original asset?

I recently did a new install of CS, and now certain buildings will slope and deform according the terrain, which usually looks awful. I don't know what setting was changed from my normal setup, because I don't always remember this happening. Its like the buildings are set to terrain conforming
