Wood Door Textures

[Nedelosk]

We want to make wood doors for ever Wood type. And for this we need textures for the doors. Can anyone make textures for this ?

[arrrrik]

Do you want them to be re-colored vanilla style doors? Or more like the wooden doors from Natura/Witchery with unique looks to them?

EDIT: Also, I can't remember for sure what default texture size is in Forestry, but I'm thinking 16x?

[mezz]

All the vanilla doors are unique, so it would be nice to have unique Forestry doors that fit with the vanilla theme. Forestry is 16x.

[arrrrik]

Rad. I'll see what I can manage over the next week or so.

[arrrrik]

Last question: handles and hinges or no?

[mezz]

Yes. Vanilla doors all have hinges, and the wooden ones all have handles.

[arrrrik]

Here's the initial doors. Some of them I got a bit, ah, carried away on, so if you're not a fan of the more bold experiments (palm wood comes to mind) let me know and I'll do something more traditional. Also I was indecisive on a few, so there may be a few options for the same wood.

I think most of them look very good! Some may need some tweaking to look right in-game, I'll have to try them out next to their woods once they're implemented. Giganteum could use some more texture/noise, maybe some extremely subtle wood grain. Palm is interesting, we'll have to see how Minecraft handles the odd shape though. Hopefully it works fine. All said, I think they look great. Thanks for contributing!

[arrrrik]

Took a second whack at Giganteum. This feels a lot better.

Also, while I'm pulling the colors straight from the texture files, it might still be a bit off since I'm using some garbage internet program and I'm not sure it's processing them correctly. No Photoshop at work is the sad counterbalance to me having a ton of time to make textures at work.

That said, most of the grains are pulled from the same files, so they should match with a quick HSL adjust on anything that's too "off"

You probably can't install anything on your work comp, but if you can, Paint.net is a great lightweight editor for pixel art.

[arrrrik]

Yeah, unfortunately the work comp is a government comp, so I definitely can't install anything.

[mezz]

Ok I'm most of the way through implementing these and they look good! Turns out Palm's shape will not work without a lot of effort. Can you make a rectangular design, @arrrrik ?

[mezz]

Here's what we have without palm:

I also made door icons to match the vanilla style, which was harder than I expected:

I'm really happy with the results! The doors look very nice.

[arrrrik]

I'm really happy with how those look in world. The icons look great too! I can definitely make a regular shaped palm door. I'll have something done tonight.

[arrrrik]

Here's an updated palm door. I went with a "peeling paint" look, showing the palm underneath. Kept the feel tropical while showing the wood color.

[mezz]

Hmm it's a good idea but I don't like the painted look in-game with palm wood.

Maybe if the dominant coloring was palm, with hints of peeling paint? You can't really paint anything else like that so it's hard to make it match in a bigger design.

[arrrrik]

Yeah, I definitely see what you mean. I didn't do this one with the planks next to it, so I forgot to think about that. Kept thinking "Tropical!" to the exclusion of "cohesion!" I'm not 100% certain this will work the way I want it too, so I'll try and come up with something better tonight. It might! But, you know, maybe not.

[mezz]

It's better than before but I like your other door designs more. Maybe you could make something with planks missing, but have the trim still around it to make it fit the rectangle requirement?

[arrrrik]

I tried that and it sadly didn't work. I'll try and do an ocean/Caribbean themed cutout for the window.

[arrrrik]

Here we go! Nautical palm door.

Thank god I'm making this one at home. So much easier with Photoshop

[mezz]

Looks good! There are some transparency issues around the cutout though, some of the door around it is not 100% opaque, and the glass is semi-transparent instead of like the Minecraft style (like the Ipe door).

[arrrrik]

Shoot, looks like I forgot to set my eraser opacity to 100. Easy enough fix though.

[arrrrik]

There we go.

[mezz]

Thanks! Looking good.

@arrrrik I just got access to ExtraTrees from Binnie! I want to add their woods to Forestry. Would you be able to create 39 new types of doors? No rush heh.

[arrrrik]

I can do that!

Awesome! The doors have been getting a lot of use by builders on Forgecraft recently https://twitter.com/Rosespikes/status/744007250755235840

[arrrrik]

Oh man, that looks great. I'll probably knock a bunch out on Sunday night and hopefully have most of them done by the end of next week.

[mezz]

Sounds good. I still have a lot of work to do with the code involved, so it may take me longer to implement them.

[arrrrik]

For a variety of reasons (including the fact that there's just so many) it's going a bit slower. But here's what I have so far.

[mezz]

Very cool! This is going to take me a while, you have no time pressure.

[Nedelosk]

@arrrrik Any new textures ?
