I've been busy creating mods that take advantage of the new random map generator from Foundation. You can now convert any map to have arid, alpine, desert, tropical, or temperate vegetation. In this video I show you how each mod affects the same map. I also review the new Realistic Stone and Berries mods, and give a preview of a change coming up for Pagan Worship.

Переглядів 3,3 тис.2 роки тому
Two fun weeks of learning Godot and making my 3D city builder. I tried different approaches to building a simple environment, landed on a draft art style, and spent many frustrating hours trying to get my navmeshes to work.

I switched to working on a 3D city builder prototype using the Godot game engine. This week I finished a building definition system and a new iteration of the camera. I learned how to load glTF files from Blender at runtime, and how to save and load objects in the world.

Foundation with Batyushki's Modpack - Arras Town Centre Rebuild
Переглядів 2,2 тис.2 роки тому
Playing Foundation with Batyushki's Modpack, I start with a town of 950 people and redevelop the town core, in the meantime growing population to 1250 with a new fortified town centre, cathedral and housing districts. This is the Extremadura map using all the mods from my modpack (see foundation.mod.io). The focus in this game is on exploring how a town would develop from an organic design to a...

The housing spread in 1.0 is killing me ;) i miss being able to cram 10 villagers into one house as part of the great hall with your mods Batty!
I completely hooked to the game, and I was super interested to know how to mod the game with assets. It seems a person will have to learn code if it wants to mode the game. Did you had previously knowledge?! Is it possible to create assets or variations of construction and just add to the game without coding? I would love to create some assets on blender and add to the game so the structures have a little something of me.
Hi, you will need to code, though Lua is not a complicated language by programming standards. If you can learn Blender, you can definitely learn Lua.
@@BatyushkiDev Thank you so much for the reply... I will start with Lua as soon as I give it a break from the game :D
Great video. Thank you for it. I have question - how can I have more than 5 soldiers. From the start I can hire 5 suitable people but after that what?
You need to unlock Spear, Bow or Sword companies in the 2nd tier of the Military estate. Then you can add new companies of 5 soldiers each.
We need more experienced players to educate the new player base, most videos online are brand new people playing. Please upload more.
I'll do my best :)
This is so helpful. Thanks! Any idea why am I only capable of creating just 1 company? How can I recruit more militia?

You are on of the driving forces of the game. Many of the mods you have done in all this years have became part of the game. I thing that you would continue to make this game a far better one.
Thank you! I'm particularly pleased to see some elements of Security make it into the game.
I decided to try this game out, and seeing your mods makes me so happy - knowing there is something to look forward to in future playthroughs is awesome! Thank you for your work. Also, excellent video and i love the structure!
Will you make a new lets play with the update?
Eventually yes, once mods are re-enabled.
i miss ortodox church mod in 1.0
It will return, once mods are re-enabled.
Foundation is one of my favourite games because of your mods. I’m enjoying the 1.0 release but I really miss all things you brought to the game. I was building bulstling vibrant towns because of your amazing mods and I hope we get to see more from you in future. A big thank you for all you’ve made over the years! 💜
You are the best!
Thank you for the great overview of the differences from the early access version, since I haven't played since then. It's been a while since I have played and I can say that the fortifications look to be the biggest difference. I also like the new visuals, to include the new castle.
Tanks for all your awesome and useful mods you made over the years Batyushki! They make the game even better
Hi, I fell in love with that game since a few years now, they have been inproving a lot, and I played a lot of iour mods and mod packs too ! I enjoyed your let's play, please make some more now 1.0 is real ! Vanilla and modded onf later on ! I beg you, you're a legend for this community. Sorry for my mistakes, I'm not native, tried my best ! Much love to you, keep it up ❤
Great video. A must watch for everyone playing this. Can you please make something for the military part?
It crashes constantly
I had quite a few crashes too, but the devs are patching things all the time to make the release version more stable. There was another unannounced patch yesterday.
@@BatyushkiDev That's what 6 years of EA is for. There is always room for bugs and improvements, but a game that won't stay running an hour without a crash and reset to autosave is a problem. I'm simply saying it's an unfortunate series of events for a 1.0 game.
Cant wait for your mods mate.... but is it even possible to mod now???? there is only one button in the new release about mods and it sits in the savegame loading screen?!?!?
Not yet but it's coming once the release is stable.
Such a well written video. It's clear, in depth and you go straight to the informations ! Can't wait to go look at your mods!
@batyushki I just scrolled through your mods and can't wait for their 1.0 adaptatio! Especially the terrace mod which looks amazing for detailing and terraforming 😍
Looking forward to see your mods updated Batyushki!
oh my favourite modder, thank you for making this game worth playing over and over!! looking forward to seeing what comes next!
Great overview and explanation of key mechanics and elements, such as housing density. Thanks much !!
haven't played this game in a couple of years, thanks for getting me up to speed, will help when i pick it up again.
I was playing this game when it became available on steam. It was quiet unique. Especially with the organic development of the city and customizable buildings. But surely graphical and game mechanics weren't top notch. I am surprised how well the release version turned out. So many changes how to progress with a lot of new content and improvement. The same for the graphic. Yes, it is cartoon ish but the amount of details make cities feel authentic and alive.
The dev team have put a lot of thought and work into the final product. It was a long time to finish but worth waiting for I think.
Hello from Germany and I am very happy that you are still there. I'm sure the devs will block the mod for the time being because of possible bugs in the full version. Which makes sense. Long live Foundation :-)
always good to hear from you
Nice to still have you here - so my hope mods come back get´s higher. To you allready know if mods come again? But I also like that DLC-idea, to at stuff, to honor there work - would that not be something for you!
yes mods will return but we don't know exactly when yet.
@@BatyushkiDev Thanxalot - time doesn´t matter - just important they come back
Thanks for the video! I am so glad you are still there for the full release, enjoying the early acccess using your mods was so great!
Thought I recognized your name from my mod list...
Great video from someone who actually KNOWS the mechanics of this game. Would love a series going full-bore into each progression tree - monastery first would be my preference!
Great idea! I’d watch that for sure
Is anyone else having problems with commoners moving into houses? I've had other commoners move into houses, so I get how it works. Also pathing warnings and housing warnings even though there are empty spaces. The pathing error was they built a house where the door wasn't big enough to leave...
Try reaching out on Discord so that the community can help you resolve.
is it possible to turn off the tree animation? I want to play this but that visually annoys me for some reason
Yes, hit ESC, Settings, Video, at the bottom there is a toggle for tree movement. You often have to re-set this every game (it will show off, but trees still move until you turn it on and then off again).
Welcome back ! Eager to see what mods you'll bring to us. I loved your warehouse mod best !!
You are a legend in the Foundation community. I have 1000 hours+ in this game because of your mods.
You took the words out of my mouth… 10/10 comment for a 10/10 modder, content creator!
yeeeey, you are back, I have used your mods in the past and enjoyed your videos. Glad to have you back and looking forward to the mods!
did you made some new buildings for your mods? I'm still waiting for some new updates. like ports, cowsheds and pig farms.
Right now, mods aren't enabled for the new Foundation 1.0 release. I'm waiting for the devs to give instructions before we can start work on incorporating the existing ones into the new game. And I'll need to do a lot of graphics work so that the visuals match the new aesthetics.
@@BatyushkiDev i see, thanks. I'll gonna wait for them to allow mods
I look forward to using your excellent mods in this new game. Most of all I'd like to see seasonal change with time, from flowery spring to snowy winter with occasional weather effects. It'd be truly awesome with this art style. Something like in Manor Lords.
That would be amazing, but I don't expect it given that the devs have not prioritised snow graphics in the past. I think I'll likely be able to cycle between the new four light settings and add some snow as particles, similar to the old Seasons and Weather mod. But we'll see once modding is re-activated in the new release!
@@BatyushkiDev The two core components this game lacks at present are: 1. the feeling of time passing through cycles, per 1/2month day/night abstraction, per year through seasons 3 mnths each (this would make it so amazing, visually stunning and can be user-configurable) + pops aging and passing on. 2. adversity, let there be some mild danger as it was intended to be a laid-back builder but occasional animal attack, adverse weather, lake/river flood, fire, rats etc. (user-configurable) would add so much to realism. As it is now, it is a good game, but feels like a city building photoshop than a simulation. Add those two + pops stories and quests (as they level up) so you develop some attachment to your inhabitants (levelling up after all) and it could be the game of the decade. Here's a challenge for you! 😀
Foundation has really grown from when I joined the Kickstarter all those years ago. I love your videos and builds 👍
Wahoo!! Its finally here!!!
Love how you describe every part of the game! Absolutely delightful video! - Chris from Polymorph ;)
Can't wait to see all the new and updated mods for 1.0!
Post part 3 brother!! <3
he's back!!! love your past videos and all of your mods of course <3
Great intro, looks fantastic. Going to get stuck into it today. Thanks for your mods.
Thanks much for this! I'd heard of the upcoming release, and your overview should make the *transition easier. It is been *such* a lovely game, and looks even better now.
I look forward to seeing your mods in 1.0

Thank you for sharing, I was hoping you would make a series when 1.0 was released, I really enjoyed your last series. Any huh, thank you!
이런 게임이 수백만년동안 업그레이드가 되면 우주를 창조할수있을까? 지금 우리가 존재하고있는 이 우주도 가끔 누군가의 게임일것 같은 느낌
I was waiting for this 😂❤
👍When will you release a new "Foundation series"? I would accept this immensely.👍
Once mods are up and running again I will definitely do a series.
Hey ! First off, love your mods, thanks ! Second, any chance to get the map seed for this gorgeous map ? :D Anyway, I subscribed and looking forward to your new mods !
I love this game for its customisation. I wish It had a dark fantasy style. That would be sick
