Modern & Near-Future street tiles

[Cherno]

Hello,

I'm splitting this up from the Cyberpunk 2020 Framework topic over at the Maptools forums so it doesn't get cluttered up.

I finished my street tiles, all are available plain for modern use and with blue lights lining the streets for a cyberpunkish look.

Also included is the PSD file which I used to create all the tiles, so in that file is everything you need to create your own tiles, even some instructions are included in the "data" layergroup.

In any case, if you have any ideas for stuff that is missing, please tell me and I will try to incorporate it into the next version. I will even do custom work if you need one specific tile for your campaign, maybe with a certain marking or something.

Here's how to use the tiles:

After extracting, there is the main folder with all tiles plus the PSD file and a folder "Lights" which has copies of all tiles, only with curb lights.

All tiles follow a simple naming scheme to quickly find what you're looking for:


First digit:
I = Straight Road
L = L-shaped Turn
T = T-crossing
X = X-crossing

Second digit:
N = Narrow street, for suburbs and side streets, alleys etc.
W = Wide street, for main roads and highways

Other keywords:

Asphalt (plain road without sidewalk)
VTOL (VTOL landing spot)
Plaza (plain sidewalk without and road or curb, as well as some decorative asphalt spots in the middle... For putting a potted plant or something in it.

I recommend first doing a basic street layout, then placing special street tiles for pedestrian crossing etc, and then adding a 3 square wide sidewalk along all roads.

Even better would be to create your city grid in your favourite graphics editing program, this way you can easily add grunge and trash etc. without having to worry about tiling issues.

Comments welcome! (Via PM or eMail: "chernoskill (at) gmx (dot) net".

Have fun building your city

Why does everybody hate the housreules/homebrews forum?

 

[Cherno]

Because uhmm... Look, behind you, a three-headed monkey!

Thanks for moving the thread

I also added PDF versions of the L4F Tiles, check the first post.

Very cool. I'll definitely use these next time I run a modern game! Would you be able to attach them here? It's just that so many threads with external links get searched for years later, and the links are broken by then!

 

[Cherno]

I'd consider it, but I see no way to attach zip files, only images?

Besides, one can always contact me and I will be happy to make any files available again

These are very nice. And needed. Finding well-designed modern floor tiles is nearly impossible. Fantasy abounds and sci-fi is possible (but still fairly distant) but the only modern tiles I seem to find are zombie apocalypse oriented with mutilated corpses scattered all over. You have a few tiles like that but not every single one like most sets I've found.

Thanks for posting these.

Just use the attachment manager below the post edit box.

You say that now, but that doesn't help in 5 years when someone finds this thread on Google and you've long gone, the links are broken and your email address has changed!

Okeelee dokeelee, I will look into it, but not before I add some more stuff to the collection.
