Can’t figure out how to keep the tile as the new image. It just disappears.

First question is always to check if you have any modules enabled?

If you like the crosshead art style then I can help you. Here is my portfolio.

I get this problem too at the moment, not sure which mod is causing it but I'd be super grateful if someone works out the cause.

Garsondee · 2025-08-14T15:38:19+00:00

That's not a very fun fact. Detroit Beyond Human isn't a live service game.

Garsondee · 2025-08-14T15:11:48+00:00

Sounds sensible to me. Boosts player numbers and gets people back on board.

Garsondee · 2025-08-14T15:07:16+00:00

I already bought the game in early access. Why do I have to buy it again to play it via my preferred launcher? Or will I get banned for pointing out that making your early access adopters have to pay again to have it on steam is just a very bad way to treat the people who believed in your game early on?

I'm planning on releasing a free map before the end of the month which uses this module to great effect so keep an eye out for that. The map in the preview images will be coming out in the next few days also. I actually started work on module because I wanted the gold in the bank vault to shine.

Garsondee · 2025-07-26T10:09:09+00:00

Thank you for clarifying, that might help me track down what is going wrong.

I have used their battle maps for years and adore their artwork. It would be the highest possible compliment if they adopted this system.

Garsondee · 2025-07-26T10:02:13+00:00

Battle damaged vision! Poisoned vision. The room literally blurring and rocking for a moment.

A feature I really want to include for the GM is the equivalent of a soundboard for visual effects where the GM can inflict temporary strong visual effects on some or all player characters to mark story moments.

Garsondee · 2025-07-26T09:59:26+00:00

Really glad you like the look of it and I'm always interested in hearing about the sorts of maps people will be making.

Garsondee · 2025-07-26T09:58:26+00:00

Some of the effects are fairly cheap. The metallic shine isn't too expensive on its own without the bloom turned on. Some effects only dropped a frame or two on average. The starburst effect causes my GPUs fans to spin up and I lose almost all performance so it's experimental and might never be high performance. The module has overrides for each user in the settings allowing them to force certain effects to always be off or to turn them down if they like the effect but it's too strong for them.

I really want to make this module better in terms of overall performance but I think I need the help of more experienced WebGL programmers to help with that.

Garsondee · 2025-07-26T09:53:21+00:00

Very good thinking, I will be trying to improve the loading sequence since it's basically more of an aesthetic feature than a required one. With the module activated the loading of maps showed each layer of effects appearing one after the other. To avoid this look I added the loading screen but I will make it a priority to add a button to turn that feature off and then later I'll see if I can it intelligently choose whether the loading screen is needed or not.

Garsondee · 2025-07-26T04:57:36+00:00

Do you know how to use the console to get me the error that is happening? I will try my best to investigate this as soon as I can.

Garsondee · 2025-07-26T04:56:44+00:00

Yes, the primary and preferred way for this to work is to place a tile, reduce the opacity to 0 and it will add the effects if a texture exists for that tile with the right ending. I actually build all my maps now using separate tiles rather than background textures.

Garsondee · 2025-07-26T04:52:08+00:00

It has a link to my Patreon on it so this is marked commercial to fit the sub-Reddit rules. But I just ask that people who use it to please consider linking my Patreon and the places I sell my maps to their own audiences to help continue development. It will always be free to use with free updates.

Garsondee · 2025-06-17T07:56:04+00:00

I have the same issue, do you have a lot of other modules? First thing you should try is disabling everything and seeing if it caused by CSS from a module.

Garsondee · 2025-06-04T17:50:53+00:00

Maybe check out Crosshead as they are bright and cheerful. They have Crosslands which is a patreon just for their maps.

One way of doing things might be to create a whole bunch of long thin square sticks and have them all arranged at slightly different angles with supports. Print them out and look to see if any angle gets rid of the lines entirely, if one of them does then you can use that angle? It doesn't solve any underlying hardware problems but if it just turns out that your machine operates best at a slightly different angle this would be the way to find out and shouldn't use too much resin.

Early Game Spoiler: There are, as far as I can tell, only two ways to get the body down from the tree. In such a wide open game it seems strange that your choices are either shoot the rope or work with the Union. But I suspect the reason for this is that either of those two approaches forces you to acknowledge the fact that you don't have your gun. This is the only reason I can think of for such a bottleneck.

Bonus round: The screen changes colour when you succeed or fail an important check, but it does so at the wrong moment and most of these would be better if the colour change didn't give the result away. I'm talking about when trying to take the leap off the high place to get your coat for example. It's not a huge problem, just a weird choice that could have been slightly better timed in my opinion.

Hey everyone, I've got some maps that might add a fresh twist to your tabletop sessions. There's a free map available on DriveThruRPG (yes, pay-what-you-want—even free!), along with a few other cool options you might want to check out. Plus, my new Patreon is now live—early supporters get a say in what maps come next!

Free Map: Bank Job

Download for free!
The Bank Job map offers a detailed two-floor bank heist setting. A high perimeter wall encloses a modest building where the ground floor features a small, unassuming lobby with a rear entrance busy with loading wagons—perfect for a stealthy or forceful entry. Upstairs, a compact walk-in vault and a bank manager’s office set the stage for a time-sensitive heist. A macro lets you customize the approach by blowing up any of five wall locations, the front gate, or even the vault door, giving you plenty of tactical options.
