Please send me the txt files in your game files directory (on Android that is Android/data/info.flowersoft.theotown.theotown/files) to info@theotown.com so that I can investigate the issue. Could it be plugin related? In this case you may rename the "managed plugins" folder to temporarily ...

For better overview I moved discussions about custom shaders to here. Here you can also suggest changes to the tutorial.

To go to the tutorial: The Custom Shaders documentation

What are shaders and what can we do with them in the context of plugins? This topics tries to give you some insights on that. For discussion you can use this topic . The structure: General Overview General Concepts How the default vertex shader works in detail How the default fragment shader works i...

By using w, h you tell the game the size of individual frames of the animation. The game will then try to get count many such frames from the provided image. The game will not calculate w, h automatically for count>1

I made the graphics so that each subframe has this size. It should display all of the 6 frames with this code as it does in the game.

"doesn't work" is not exactly helpful for us to diagnose the issue.

In the animation I specify width and height explictily so that the game knows the size of a single frame. It then uses count to extract that amount of frames. These will then be used to play the animation.

Here's part of the definition for the in-game wind turbine: [ { "id":"$animationfan00", "type":"animation", "frames":[{"bmp":"blades.png","w":60,"h":58,"count":6}] }, { "id":"$windturbi...

It's a legacy attribute to animate your buildings. For that, simply provide multiple frames to the "frames" attribute and then use "animated":true to let the game know that it should use these frames to animate the building. Nowadays I recommend to use separate animation objects ...

Thank you for the reports. There was an issue with the caching server that has been fixed

Hi, in a best case scenario the city file got corrupted and does therefore not appear. Please provide me with the contents of the correspondent region folder here or via pm.

You mean the edges on ground? Will give that a try

Hi, thank you for the report. I updated the plugin. Let me know if it works now.

The plugin heavily relies on Lua to draw the lit windows. This is normally not an issue unless you start to overdo it (like in this case with more than 20,000 windows). In this case the best optimization is to try to reduce the amount of drawn images e.g. by merging the frames together into bigger o...

Sorry to hear that you are unhappy. We admit that enforcing the rules in a consistent matter is hard and that we can improve on that. On the other hand, I want to emphasize on that the "price" for plugins is in place to finance the store and things around it (including adding new features ...

Please try to join the game's beta channel on Steam and report back if it makes any difference.

Hi, what hardware are you using? What exact version of the game is that?

The rendering will always happen in a single thread only, that's a limitation of OpenGL. However, from what I've seen so far that should not lead to performance implications on PC.
