    red51 You can add a "selection tool" - an overlay that surrounds the active blocks - to the "C" menu of the paint tools to allow some modifications on the textures itself: Of course, to change the origin point of a texture in local mode with the directional arrows ... but maybe also to change the texture scale/alignment outside creative mode

    We clearly need another way to rotate texture, but we already have a way to do that. For wood texture especially, I don't see the problem: You can just build with texture alignment set to "local" ("C" menu with a block in your hands). That works pretty well, you just need to remember that the wood fibers are aligned along the vertical axis to keep a right orientation.


    The issue is more to rotate a floor texture around the vertical axis when you have a building that is not aligned to the grid.

    Thanks a lot red :) That will be very helpful next time I (or anyone else) need to calculate the strange shape of certain blocks for some weird object.


    Actually, I found the solution to my specific problem after a night's sleep, but much more complex than what you just explained. Your information should allow me to generalize next time :)


    In my case, I wanted to calculate the shape of the tiles placed on this roof, in particular those above the apse:



    I've also attached my spreadsheet for anyone who might be interested. It's not quite finished, but works pretty well already. It comes without a manual, so you need to have a basic understanding of geometry to use it. Just complete the green boxes and don't touch anything else.

    When I want to build something with complex geometric shape, usually I calculate certain blocs. Obviously, I don't do that manually, but through a libreoffice's spreadsheet and console commands IG (size, surfacescale...). This way, the necessary calculations are done only once to create a tool that can be reused in different situations. Only the parameters need to be adapted to each case. For example, the windmill I recently published uses this technique.


    However, I am currently stuck on calculating the "surface offset". I know there is an inverse function somewhere and that the only two variables are the block dimension and the surface scale in the axis considered, but I can't find the formula that will allow me to control this. Would it be possible to have a point on the math behind the surface offset?

    I tried to find a "setgap" or a "gap" command to set manually the gap value, and surprisingly it doesn't seem to exist. Maybe I'm wrong.


    Anyway, It would be nice to have such a command, especially if we can also set a negative value this way. I would like to use negative values to make tile rows: they need to be imbricated one into the other.


    Edit : I don't know how I managed, but the "gap" command does exist and accepts negative values. So a thread for nothing, sorry.

    Old Windmill



    I completely rebuilt my old windmill to fix some details that no longer suited me. The new version uses about 10% fewer blocks and is more detailed.


    I made three variations in limestone, sandstone, and black shale, with exactly the same shape, and others are easily doable in creative mode.


    It was built on the grid, if you want to keep that, change the blueprint's pivot to "Selection Area (Legacy)" point in your settings (Miscellaneous -> Blueprints).


    There are a few blocks around the mill to make it easier to place back on the grid; you'll need to remove them. It's also designed to be sunk into the ground down to the door level; feel free to add a few steps at the entrance.

    Thanks :)


    Sorry to answer in english, but I'm french and I still need some training in german.


    I have already asked red51 if this green arrow can be visible in blueprints too some mounth ago. I think we just have to hope he read this and put it on the list for one of the next updates :)

    Antique furniture

    VIII – Chairs



    15/06/2025 - Initial release.



    Description


    Antique furniture is a series of blueprints with the ambition to cover the main types of furniture that can be found in the western world during the pre-industrial era. Currently, 8 sets are ready (bookshelf, bed, table, throne, pottery, cabinets), and few others are in various stage of progress.


    The Part VIII - chairs contains 9 different chairs.



    Installation


    Unzip all the content into your blueprint folder, usually \Steam\steamapps\common\RisingWorld\Blueprints. Of course, you need to use your blueprint table to obtain the set content in game.

    If you have installed an older version of the set, you should remove it first.

Currently, 7 sets are ready (bookshelf, bed, table, throne, pottery, cabinets, stools & benches), and few others are in various stage of progress.


    Part VII, stools & benches: Its 7 differents variants of stools & 6 variants of benches in 3 sizes.


    Each piece of furniture has a coded name who allow to quickly know its type and dimensions. For example :

    Bench_T1-W2

    T1 → Type 1

    W2 → Width 2 blocks

Currently, 6 sets are ready (bookshelf, bed, table, throne, pottery, cabinets), and few others are in various stage of progress.


    Part VI, cabinet: Its 3 differents type of furnitures (Sideboard, Welch dresser, and Wardrobe) in various size.


    Each piece of furniture has a coded name who allow to quickly know its type and dimensions. For example :

    Wardrobe_T1-D1h-W3-H3

    T1 → Type 1

    D1h → Deep 1 & half blocks

    W3 → Width 3 blocks

    H3 → Height 3 blocks

    Possible adjustments


    All the blueprints are built in modular snapping mode, but on the grid. The shelves are all at a specific height to facilitate the placement of objects inside using the grid. Each individual shelf is made of a block and a cylinder. You can easily adjust they height or number, by coping the shape (INSER key), and moving it up or down.

    P.S. Thanks red51 for fixing the resized doors & blueprints bug few version ago, that allow to publish a clean version of this cabinets.
