[#28] a day at the City Center

Heya everyone!I am so happy to finally be able to share the City Center content pack with you today!After kind of a cursed summer and an additional delay because I caught Covid in the final stages of this pack I really hope that this Content Pack was worth the wait and I am really looking into sharing new content more frequently again with you in the future!

This one is huge again and covers a whole City Center block for you to explore!I wish you loads of fun with it!Greetings from Ana

Alright, listen up team!This one is a high-stakes operation - even by our standards.The target: The Federal Reserve Bank in the Finance District, right across from the Grand Global Hotel. My source says there’s a vault in the basement holding enough gold to retire very comfortably. Yes, gold, real metal. Not credits, not crypto - actual gold. Problem is, it’s buried under more layers of security than a corpo legal team.

Your cover is simple: Check into the Grand Global, blend in with the corpos, stay invisible, and get eyes on the vault schedule. Security’s tight, but nothing we haven’t cracked before.

Could also be worth it to keep tabs on the Eclipse Club on the other side of the street while you’re at it: Some of the bank’s execs like to gamble there after hours - maybe they’ll spill something useful after a few too many (loaded?) drinks in the VIP poker room

Or a whole other approach: You could rent out one of the nearby apartments and use one of the cellar rooms to dig your way secretly to the gold reserve.The choice is yours.

But beware! There’s a local precinct nearby, small operation, big egos. If they catch wind of you, play it cool. No heroics!

Remember, this isn’t a "smash and grab". It’s a job for ghosts.Do it clean, do it quiet, and for once in your lives - try not to turn this into another headline.

Winter Version Bonus Variant for the "Complete" MapsHere is an example of the first floor:

[For the winter variants I decided to stay with the Complete and Car free Versions only, so no cutouts for this one. The basements stay basically the same, so you can just use the normal variants here.]

Those come come as

modern and abandoned versions

most with variants with and without cars

the complete one: 9 level in total (basement, ground floor, upper floors & roofs), cutouts come with different level heights (depending on the building sizes XD)

300 & 100ppi JPG files

100ppi webp files and transparent overlays

(I am discontinuing variants with grids since it's bloating everything up pretty much, so these are all gridless)

+Floorplan Handouts as "Green-Screen" and "Blue" Variants for the Complete map and the Map cutouts for all level and both as annotated and empty variants.

The included Room types are the following:Hotel Rooms - Changing rooms - Bank Counter - Kitchen - Break Rooms - Living Rooms - Locker Room - Maintenance - Offices - Shop - Storage Here are some examples:

Each of the prefabs and rooms come as 100ppi & 300ppi PNG filesAlso all Prefabs & rooms are integrated with all the Assets and things from the creative GMs in the Dungeondraft [Thorough GMs] file - so you have all content neatly in one place.Also thorough GMs get the Dungeondraft files for the maps - so you can change it as you may need. 

Also new: The Start of a new Pack that will grow over time:Premade Buildings (Prefabs)

When I asked what more Prefabs you would consider great to have quite a few of you said that it would come in handy to have access to pre-made buildings that could easily be added into your maps as "side buildings" to make the surroundings feel more alive.With this pack I am starting adding the buildings I made for my maps as prefabs so you can use them for just that. Right now it has the buildings from the "City Center" included, but I plan on integrating Buildings from former packs as well and will add to the pack with new maps and buildings.

They are cut at the walls (much like the Rooms), so you have better options to mix and match as it best fits your setup.

Those are shared as:

The "Premade Buildings" Dungeondraft Pack

300 ppi PNGs

100ppi PNGS

Thorough GMs: You can now find the Folder "Premade Buildings" in the "#0_Other" Folder

Since this is a new feature, I would of course love to hear your feedback about it: Is it useful for you? Does everything work out alright? And so on. I also hope that it will be a great way to make your cities feel more alive even if you might just use the roofs to make a city center scene from above.
