"My fellow space explorers, it has been a long time since we left our home planet behind.  So it is more than understandable if you are feeling home sick so far away in deep space all alone. But now you may decorate your ship with paintings, that will remind you all of where we came from, what we left behind, and of that beautiful little blue marble we once called home..."  XDWhat up citizens of the Zorica System!!!  This is pstuddy!  And I am back with an extremely amazing mod for Rodina that I have been working on for the past 3 months.  I now introduce to Rodina...PAINTINGS!!!  Spice up the interior of your ship with these colorful and vibrant paintings and bring that boring and dull interior to life!  This mod took me a long time to complete because it was an extremely time consuming process to get these images imported into Rodina.  The reason being is because Rodina DOES NOT support textures as of yet and so I had to figure out some other way to import these images into the game. And also because of a little (sometimes annoying) thing called "life" got in the way too. :) I had to convert each images for the paintings into faces.  Each painting required a couple of processes to reduce the amount of polys before importing it into Blender.  Then, once in Blender, I had to figure out a couple more procedures to the reduce the poly count even further before finalizing it as a painting model to be exported out into Rodina.  The smaller the poly count, the better it is for performance and the less time it takes for the painting models to be exported out of Blender.These paintings took about a total of 4 to 5 processes and ranging from 1 minute to 3 hours!!! (depending on the quality and detail of an image) from being an image or screenshot to being an actual painting model within Rodina!  I'd say most of these paintings took me about 2 to 2 and a half hours just to export them out of Blender and that's excluding all the other processes!!!  So yeah, it was truly a pain in the you know what! XD  Unfortunately, this is also the reason why there will be no paintings for Corridor walls as they are curved inwards and thus I would have to save the painting models at angles that would be paralell to its curve.  Then that would mean I would have to make every single painting model (all 85 of them) twice just for the Corridors which would then take twice as long to complete as if it wasn't long enough and a pain in the butt already!  I am sure that there are ways to code in a script to just use the same models for the corridor curves but I am so not on that level yet!  LOL  So yeah, NO Corridor paintings!!! :)  So with that said, I truly hope you guys enjoy and appreciate this mod that I have put together for ya'll!  And now I am finally ready to release the first build of this mod!!!  They are found under ENTITIES in the ship interior editor.  Some paintings may have a split second and up to a whole second delay before spawning depending on the number of faces of said paintings.  There are a total of 85 paintings in this first version of the Interior Plus Mod!!!  I will be adding other interior props in the near future! ENJOY!!!
