0.47 or 0.50

Postby wolfmimir » Mon Aug 20, 2012 1:48 pm

What one do you prefer? I started with playing 0.50 and it is just all confusing AND annoying, Ive been looking att all Sips Towns videos and he got it more simple and easy.
In 0.50 im not even able to build a roof or a complete wall!
Ive downgraded to 0.47 and stuff is already more simple and easy.
I dont like 0.50 for: layer system is annoying, i want to be able to see my whole town without switching between the layers and be able to easy interact with them all, the layer system in 0.50 DONT make that easy.
I jsut think they should stick with the format as it is in 0.47 over 0.50.
Whats ur opinions?

.50b is far better then .47b.

Yes .50 is confusing - Yes it takes awhile to adjust to it... but once you do it was way more open to your creativity and the system is really simple once your use to it.. you will do all the things with out even thinking about it.. like you played .47b and before. Even scrolling I really don't notice it anymore.

I also prefer the layered surface to what it would be like if we didn't have the layer system... and you can't really get rid of the layer system because I need to be able to hide the town... so I can see what is going on.. on the ground. Though some hote keys to move the camera to max height and surface would possibly help.

The darkness you get scrolling up - is to be removed, it is a temp fix to the issue of the game looking flat and a bit odd I guess. Proper shadows or something will be tried to fix it. So whatever update we get that in will make the newer version more preferred.. as I still prefer .47b's brightness over .50b's darkness.

They just added the layer system so it will be somewhat annoying for a few updates. I prefer 0.50, partially because they fixed the ATI problem...

If you find it too frustrating you can use the creative mod, and you can uninstall it after you complete your buildings.

building size needs be no bigger then it was in .47b really.. I think I have been making things bigger though but I plan to go a different route on my next town..

As for time to build it.. it can take awhile to build.. What I do is.. plan out my base buildings.. then build the walls for each of them up 2 or 3 high.. then start the second story for the ones I want to have it then do roofs when I can make a ton of stone..

But I like building it up here and there I think ... cause I like seeing it come together and turn from nothing to a work in progress town.. to a town... but not much you can do with building speed... besides get more people to build it ..

I like 0.50 better to. The new building sistem IS hard to get by, but multi story buildings really bring way more variety even custom roofs. So a Redo of Morrowinds Balmora is now possible! (And WIP ;) )
Sure the whole scaffolding and building up in slow speed annoys some people, but i think it is also a thing of reality. You can have outsourced zones for your peoples needs while you build. Before 0.50 Walls just came where you assigned them to be - plop -. Which townie could build a whole building in 7 minutes? Now every house is a big project (as it would be in RL) for a mere 15 people to do and while progress is slow i am always aving fun to see how the building grows up and gets Done. I find this better. It connects you better to your town on another scale. in 047 You had to move / destroy / replace a building. no problem, some minutes and you had a new one. Know it is a real pain in the ass and so you have to plan more and are more enjoyed when it gets done and looks good.

Sorry for my bad english!

I have a great idea, What if we had more speed options? Sure, there are some currently, but speed three is still too slow, what if we could speed our towns up twice or thrice as quick as speed three?
