Introduction

This is a pack of 26 unique rock models. These are huge assets suitable for covering mountains and creating cliff faces.

These were originally modeled by IceKazim. I licensed them through CGTrader, reduced the tri count on most of them, created even smaller LODs, and recolored the textures to match existing rock assets. I put a ton of work into optimizing and configuring these for modern Skylines standards.

Having done several maps for this game, rocks have always been my biggest creative bottleneck. This project is an attempt to address my landscaping needs once and for all. Hopefully, they'll address yours as well :)

Classic Grey

Classic Grey is my name for the coloration of the vanilla rocks. I've left the vanilla textures in this set (mostly) unaltered, and did my best to match it for the workshop models. As a darker grey with a fair bit of green, it works particularly well for wetter biomes.

Features

- Most of these rocks don't conform to terrain, so they can be raised and lowered with Move It to reside within or above the terrain as you wish. This allows you to ignore slopes entirely and build completely vertical or overhanging cliff faces.

- Most of these rocks have rendered bottoms, meaning you can hang them in the air. This increases their tri count, but provides a lot of flexibility. You can even build rendered caves!

- Every one of these is water friendly. No water glitching.

- I've balanced the LODs to look good from a distance without being unreasonably heavy.

Use

- You'll need some sort of anarchy to place these on dry land. I recommend using Fine Road Anarchy 2 with anarchy active (CTRL A), which allows you to place these anywhere you want.

- I *think* you can find these in your road menu, because they're configured as road pillars for ... reasons. I'm bad at Mod Tools, okay? Just use Find It to pull them up.

- These require a bit more patience to use than traditional, terrain snapping rock assets, since by default they float in the air. Use Move It to nudge them into place.

- If you want to push the illusion even further, load them into the asset editor and place your choice of trees and bushes on top of them. Overhanging trees! In theory, this might work with the tree snapping mod as well, but I've never gotten that mod to work for me so I can't confirm.

Technical

- Main model tri counts: 360 - 7860

- LOD tri counts: 180 - 1178

- LOD texture size: 256 px

1K Textures

This version uses 1K textures for most of the models (and 2K textures for the 4 terrain conforming models). These will look a bit blurry close up, but should look fine as background pieces. If you have the RAM to spare and you're looking for something a bit sharper, there's a 2K version in the collection above.

These are great for sinking into ground for small cliff edges along roadways!
FewCandy shows it in her vid, (GREAT TIP VID!). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8TSDz5xHr1Y

Are there any smaller ones like this that are also non conforming for that use? Seems I'm burying 90% of them. Smaller would be great. Any help?

@aubergine18 The short answer is no, unfortunately.

Do these things share textures? (will Loading Screen Mod be able to share their textures to reduce RAM consumption?)
