V2.3 Stable

This won't be a particularly console-friendly comment, but I'd really prefer TFP left the paint alone. Right now on PC we can mod in additional paints via OCB and pyro paints, which adds a bunch of non-apocalypse textures. Our newly constructed bases can look pristine. TFP does a great job with textures, but if they add a bunch more I'm betting they'll all be run down textures... and as I understand it even through mods there is a hard limit to the number of textures the game can support. So we could very well lose pyro paints (or its future equivalent) in the process.

As someone who uses Pyro Paints, I still disagree with this. More paints in vanilla are a good thing. They removed a LOT of them, so there is plenty of room to add more. More paints in vanilla mean the POI can have more variety and not use the same few paint schemes over and over again. Different paints aren't just for bases. They are important for POI as well. Using a mod doesn't help with POI unless they are custom POI that were made using that mod. I do agree that if TFP adds more paints, they should include some that aren't old. Those might be appropriate for most POI, but people like nice looking bases, so they should also include some that are nice.

As far as a limit, yes, there is one. But considering how many were removed and that Pyro Paints worked fine when those were all there before, there's no reason they can't add more back to the game.

En tant qu'utilisateur de Pyro Paints, je ne suis toujours pas d'accord. Avoir plus de peintures dans la version vanilla est une bonne chose. Ils en ont supprimé beaucoup, il y a donc largement de la place pour en ajouter. Ça permet aux POI d'avoir plus de variété et de ne pas utiliser les mêmes schémas de peinture encore et encore. Les différentes peintures ne sont pas réservées aux socles. Elles sont également importantes pour les POI. Utiliser un mod n'est d'aucune utilité pour les POI, sauf s'il s'agit de POI personnalisés créés avec ce mod. Je suis d'accord : si TFP ajoute plus de peintures, il faudrait en inclure des plus anciennes. Celles-ci pourraient convenir à la plupart des POI, mais les joueurs apprécient les beaux socles, il faudrait donc en inclure aussi de belles.

Concernant la limite, oui, il y en a une. Mais vu le nombre de peintures supprimées et le fait que les peintures pyrotechniques fonctionnaient bien lorsqu'elles étaient toutes là auparavant, il n'y a aucune raison de ne pas en ajouter davantage au jeu.

Are u saying, a long Time ago, in the game there was muche more paint??

Yes, though the paints were mostly not ones you'd really use. They were things like a paint that looked like a beer cooler before we had a real beer cooler in the game, so they just painted a block with that so it looked like one. Things like an image of a medical "plus" and stuff that some people would paint onto crates. They did take out a few paints you might actually use for walls or floors, but not too many.

I used them quite extensively in my early games. I think there were about six options: meds, ammo, food, and some other stuff. Then I saw that there were "boxes" and "boxes with labels." I started using the labeled ones extensively. They couldn't be painted, so I forgot about that paint.

I'd like to see more pure-color paints. Right now, a lot of the colors look a bit shabby. That's fine for POIs, but not so much for a base.

Oui, même si la plupart des peintures n'étaient pas vraiment utilisables. Il y avait par exemple une peinture qui ressemblait à une glacière à bière, avant même qu'il y en ait une dans le jeu. Ils ont donc simplement peint un bloc avec pour qu'il ressemble à une glacière. Il y avait aussi des choses comme une image d'un « plus » médical et des trucs que certains peindraient sur des caisses. Ils ont retiré quelques peintures qu'on pourrait utiliser pour les murs ou les sols, mais pas trop.

Je pensais pas ça de tfp

I used the paint option but wanted more options. I actually made up my own titled crates using Unity which I had to do from scratch as I had never used it before. Luckily Xyth had a tutorial on how to go about it so I clumsily made them. They worked great and then TFP soon after (VERY soon after lol) added the ability to label your crates.
Here is an old pic of my crates.

And one from later update

You know you can scrap and sell stuff, right?

I am just scared of what could be in the one that have no label on it.

G...G...Gracie? Is that you?

Dyes being back for armor will be great, but I'd also like to see more paints added back since so many were removed.

Reading your post gave me a screwball idea to post in pimp dreams, of course
many of my ideas are a bit screwball so nothing new.

 

[Cruiser]

I don't think I've ever seen a game updated so often in my life. Great job, TFP Team!

I guess you were not around when A14 came out. went from, if I am not mistaken about the Alpha version, from 14.1 to 14.2 in less than 24 hours, because something in the update screwed up RWG worlds. We had tiny islands ;-)

Cuz idk what they were smoking when they thought of the frostclaw and imo it could have worked if they made it look more undead like show some ribs, scrachs, boils, bloody eyes and rotten face. The rest like the hair, ears and teeth could be just the result of Mutated. And i would have given it like some old generic pants vs the loin cloth

The plauge spitter still looks fine and tbh im sad too see him go but it what it is
