Hi vampo, there is no exclusive update to Väterchen Frost theme. This theme was updated once, so maybe it was this theme he meant.

Hey Hedeci, i was watching Fluxs Avalon series and he mentioned that you have an Add-on for your Väterchen Frost theme. Is it set so only friends can see it? Would be cool if I could try it out since I am looking for the Concrete Texture that is supposed to be in it. Anyways, really dig the VF Theme!

Thanks for a great map! Actually first winter map I am playing :) But I would like to point out one small issue - since some normal roads are used around the map snow plows actually spend a lot of time to reach these places which cause a need to build multiple snow dumps even for small town (for which one would be enough normally).

This is amazing and I like it. However, the roads texture seems to be changed and become very plain. does anyone have the same problem?

Thank you for very nice Theme perfect for snowfall DLC

Looks great

Issue was theme mixer 2, unsubscribed from that and got all of my snow back

Sorry about false alarm, the problem is definitely with my game / mod setup. I just tested the CO winter theme on a CO map and I get the same result sooo... guess I'll start testing mods...

Hi folks, was wondering if anybody might know what would cause this problem:

Playing on Winterlust map.
Funny thing is I know this theme works, I've used it before, so I'm guessing it's some kind of mod conflict?
Thanks for any help you can provide.

That is a really beautiful (and probably the best) winter theme. When I thought about making a winter map, it was clear that I will use this one :-)
In case you are interested in the outcome and want to see how people are using your theme, have a look: Grimsøy

Looks fantastic, Have to get the DLC! ON HOLD

Better than original! When I'll buy Snowfall DLC - I'll play ONLY IT theme.

I would have loved this theme if it wasn't for the fact that any fertile land becomes this ugly minty green.

das theme ist ein ehemaliger patreon reward. Es ist nicht öffentlich verfügbar. Versuch mal eins von Ronyx Themes, oder das von Arnold J Rimmer, die sind beide sehr gute theme maker.

Hallo, Ich habe mir die Karte Kristianstad heruntergeladen,. Der Auto benutzt dafür das Thema Rheingold. Er meinte man solle dich dafür anschreiben. Ich würde mich sehr freuen wenn du es mir zur Verfügung stellen würdest.

love the theme whats the steam train used in theses pics

Holy COW

This Winter theme is awesome for snow maps. I'm enjoying it on the Liechtenstein mod map. Thanks!

amazing!

Thanks for bringing it back <3 The Christmas Village save game is just not right without this :)

BonBonB really did drive home that I should rate content creators in one of his videos. I have been too lazy for years but I'll do it now. Thank you for making my cities so much prettier!

@ecania Export to png is what I meant. I'm a little inacurate sometimes. :D

Thanks for the answer Hadece, im respecting your answer with a bit of sadness, fully understandeble, Im following your guide and managed to make textures i can use, so thanks so much for the guide, the last step of the guide was saiyng, save as png, that wasnt possible, I was forced to save to psd and then export to png

@ecania
Sorry, I'm rarely on facebook and didn't notice the messages. The textures are selfmade for big parts, so the answer is no, I won't share them. But I made a guide how to make map themes with lots of tips, take a look if you like.

Heya Hadece, I been trying to contact you for a couple of weeks on FB, but im failing....need to ask you if I can use some textures from this theme, making a mixed theme, summer and winter, I need to know if you let me use them and if I shall mention you when uploading the new theme,or put you as a contributor helping me with the theme.You saw my tiny try on FB when using photoshop filter on some screenshots from a map I work with with this theme....I hope u will see this message.

I found snow decals or decals in general don't work well for landscaping, because the LOD disappears when you zoom out just a little. So while you are at ground level things look great, the moment you zoom out to see your city the snow is gone.

@Apples
That is not possible. The decal does not react to slopes. However, Ronyx69 made snow decals, try them out if they work for you.

@SkiRich yes, its the alpha channel.

Good to know. The invisible nature of the ruined is controlled by that alpha channel right? I need to try that out.

@SkiRich thank you very much for the kind words. This theme has some flaws, since it was my first attempt on making a map theme.( I will update it after I finished Rheingold). The secret in this one is a nearly invisible ruined texture that allows the cliff to directly meet the snow-grass texture. Cliff behaves almost the same as the Rheingold cliff in the guide so basically that was the only difference.

Found it. Now that I know you made this, I don't need to make my own. You are an amazing modder thank you. Ah who am I kidding, with the game fubared due to the 1.9 update I'm gonna tinker in the editor. I would love to know your secret for snow texture, and getting the cliffs to have snow without actually painting snow on them.

Great work Im new what is DLC ? how do you use it for this theme

I was looking for a theme to go with my city and yours is just perfect :D Thank you for your hard work

Why have they done this to us


they should of allowed Snow in the base game

@Arid_hills

Yes, Snowfall is required for this theme, since it's build as a winter theme, which is exclusive to the Snowfall DLC.

do u have to have snowfall?

Yes, it works now! Quite beautiful, the two paired together!
Thank you!

@comatosedragon Sorry to hear that. Maybe the map has to be fixed. I'll check today, please try unsubscribing and subscribing the map again tomorrow and give me feedback, if it works.

It actually seems to be something with the map, not the theme, because I can load this theme with another map; although I can not load your map with any theme (other than vanilla)

I'm getting the problem Vinterthorn had. (CS tells me upon loading Winterlust, that Väterchen Frost is missing). I see you fixed A Natural Disasters bug, I don't have that DLC; is there a previous version available? (or is it something else entirely?) Looks awesome - would LOVE to try it

@MrMiyagi indeed, i switched at least 6 times between map theme and map to re-adjust the sun-intensity. These bars are far to sensitive and extreme.

Omg tell me about it. I sit there for hours fiddling with the water colors, moving the thing by micrometers. It's very sensitive. I've never done foam before but I'm gonna give it a try soon

@MrMiyagi thank you! It has been a huge struggle to get the cliffs and the water realistic. Next time it will be faster :D

Really nice theme! I love the cliff textures!
