Hello! Indeed there is! I first made it as a Content Patcher mod a few years back, so here's the link to it. The CP version has extra options that aren't available in AT, like toggable flowers and vines as decor. Thanks you for checking out my mods! :D
The way Alternative Textures works is, the object, say the fence, has a random texture when put down, then you use the paint bucket on it and it opens a new window where you select the texture you want, then you use the paint brush on the same fence to copy the texture and paint it on all the parts of that fence. Both paint Bucket and Paint Brush must be bought from Robin's Shop (Carpenter's Shop).
If you prefer not to buy extra items, you can still use the Content Patcher version of this mod, just install that and the Generic Mod Config Menu mod to make all changes from inside the game whenever you want! (check both pages for better instructions)
I wanted to know if this mod is compatible with Gwen's Path Tilesheets, I really do love the colors you provided and I would like to change the color of the tiles of the park I made by the railroad tracks, I like Gwen's Crystal Floor Path, but the design is hard to see due to it being pure white.
Hello! If you are using a CP mod, use the Alternate Textures interface to set everything to default (aka the first texture in the list) with the brush/bucket thing so it shows Gwen's paths (in your case) and then only change the one you want to in AT. Thanks for checking out my mod! :D
I love the color palette you've chosen here, one question, can we not use one color? I laid down the stone flooring and turned off all but the purple color, I now have a stone floor with one purple stone randomly placed in very few spots and the remainder stones all default colored.
It's the way Alternative Textures works, each tile is a single unit, so even with only one color available, you use the bucket to color one tile, then either use the brush or the spray can to color the rest of the tiles with that specific texture/color (in your case, the stone flooring). I just provide the color/textures, my apologizes. Thanks for downloading my mod! :D
I'm noticing that when I paint cobblestone (I use black) my FPS will drop by 15-20 until I color them back. It seems like once a critical mass of cobblestone appears on the screen, it will start to lag consistently. The only resolution is to color it back to the default grey and then the FPS goes back to normal. I've tried the latest AT and the beta version and unfortunately neither seem to fix this. Do you happen to have any ideas on why this might be happening and what remedy I ought to try?
Here is a recent SMAPI Log in case it is helpful or relevant.
One thing I do when there's a weird problem with my content packs, is to move everything away but my content pack and the framework it was made for, and then test it again. Unfortunately I have no save files with that specific flooring "in a critical quantity" on the farm map, and even if you can confirm it is exclusively my mod that causes the lag, ultimately the problem it's on Alternative Textures' side since it's that mod that change the game's code, which I can't do anything about. Let me know if you are able to test just my mod and see if the lags appears even with just that installed.
I've done some further testing and from what I can tell it is likely a conflict. On my singleplayer save with fewer mods, I am unable to replicate the FPS drop but in my multiplayer game as the host, I continue to experience a noticeable drop once enough tiles shown on screen are changed in color. The multiplayer game has a lot more AT/DGA assets in it so my thinking is that it's possible this is the cause. I'll have to test it some more.
INSTANT download. You have no idea how much I've wanted to get this for a special someone who cares about the placement of EVERY SINGLE TILE. Thank you!!! The amount of mods out there for flooring are rather limited and this is exactly what the community needs more of!
