So I've been keeping up with the english mods and found out that there are some of you who are interested in creating an above ground camp or house or even a whole village... so i've been editing one of the models to start this mod...

I'm trying to make a new torch so that when in the treehouse you can create a torch up there but when I try to place it it stays on the ground... can anyone help me to make it attach only to the floor of the treehouse?

It is a WIP... A mini-mod that I am working on in my spare time... I did'nt know what to name the actual mod but here is the 'jist of it...

Tree House Mod (Swiss Family Robinson Mod)

-A Modification for Stranded II-

In this mod you will be able to build in the trees most of what you can build on the ground. In real life if I was to build a treehouse it would be a structure in which is built up in the tree that protects you from ground animals as well as the weather... not just a platform to stand on... so to me the treehouse that came with Stranded II I thought to be inadequate.

I created the model using the hut the fence and the original treehouse and it looks great! but I thought why stop there when it would be cool to have the storages in a tree and the desk in the treehouse and a bridge to link them together and even torches attached to the bridges and the floors of the platforms... kinda like a tree village, city... or whatever...

Edit: I'm a beginner modeler and I have tweaked a little here... I've created a new weapon called the compound Arbalest... I've made it so that you can make bottles by crushing the clam shells and by melting it and with the use of bamboo to blow the glass... Presto a bottle... you also can make the bandage and the medkit...

That'll just give you a powder that is 60%-70%
calcium.
Glass is made from Silica, aka sand, usually the smaller
grained sand, and a couple other ingrediants.

Raven Shadow... I know it's made from sand... that part was a lazy attempt to at least start the idea of being able to make bottles... no body else had... but i guess if i knew how to do the more complicated scripting i could have it so when you dug the ground on the beach it would give you sand and then we can see as far as the rest but for now like i said... it's a WIP and I'm a beginner. My main goal is to get some buildings done... Any help is welcome.

To do it you have to define a sand object.
Then place dig areas on the beach scripted to
give sand.
look at the adventure maps to see how fishing areas are used, it's the same theorie

No Eglish person attempted to make bottles. There are quite a few german mods w/ bottles ( i think) I know the extension mod has them

I think it's because it's believed that glass manufacturing
requires a level of technology that can't be realistically
achieved on a deserted island.

But glass has been manufactured since the 15th or 16th
century and different regions of the world have different
recipes for the glasses they commonly use.

Basic bottle glass requires 3 basic ingrediants:
1)Silica (any silica, such as sand, flint or any other
silica)
2)An Alkalite (such s sodium which can be found in wood
ash as lye)
3A Metal Oxide (such as lead or iron)

The silica is the actual glass, but melts at 2400F,
requiring coal as fuel and can be a little brittle.
The Akalite is used to reduce the silica's melting point to
about 1500F, which can be achieved with wood or
charcoal.

some simple recipes:
1)Wood-ashes and sand in a 2:1 ratio
2)Wood-ashes, sand, and iron slag in a 17:10:5 ratio
3)Lime, Silica and Clay in a 1:20:<1 ratio

old good work
