Additional Blocks Mod: Remake (0.7)

Omschrijving
Have you ever been a fan of the original Additional Blocks Mod and wanted it to be updated? Now the time has come!

Additional Blocks Mod: Remake

Introduction
While this mod is heavily basing on the original ABM, it is not a simple revival of the existing assets. There were plenty of changes introduced to blocks within the .7 update, including changes to placement mechanics, textures, generated edges and so much more. Therefore my goal was to more revive the idea of this mod rather than the individual blocks themselves, though I was also partially basing on the original source files that Ayliroé, the original author, was so kind to share. I wanted to thank him for making this great mod back in the day, as well as allowing me to work on this remake.
Features
As this mod's intention is to severely widen the amount of possibilities when building in ME, a few new systems have been introduced:
  • Overhaul of arrow slits - a new type of arrow slit has been added to all types of walls
  • Overhaul of vanilla windows - the windows now allow a closer approach to them to simulate leaning out, massively increasing their usefulness
  • Brand new overhang, balcony and machicolation system, introducing much more realistic and practical models as well as a smooth transition between all possible shapes
  • Full set of diagonal walls as well as a new type of inverted small round walls
  • Couple of other custom blocks to fit the existing system or requested - offset stairs, triangle floors, etc.
  • Careful adjustment of compounding to allow walls with no gaps between towers, etc.
  • A handful of secret blocks you may like.
Future Plans
As this mod took enough time already, I am releasing what I have for now, but there are still plans for slowly continuing the development of this mod. This would include:
  • Support for large round walls - due to the amount of blocks needed, there are currently no variants for these
  • Diagonal stairs
  • Various missing ceilings and arches
  • Diagonal roofs
  • Sloped versions of the battlements
  • Reviving the original ABM murder holes
  • Regrouping the existing blocks in a more intuitive manner (if you have been using the mod a lot, feel free to share suggestions)
  • Other reasonable and small requests. If I like the idea, I may add it.
Warning:
Due to the amount of blocks included and the time already spent on it, some non-critical features of this mod may be temporary or not fitting perfectly. This especially includes construction models and icons, where I just reused the closest vanilla equivalents. I have also not been able to test every possible context of use, so if you find any problems or errors, please let me know.

Happy to share blends and sources though if someone else wants to give it a try.

Thanks!
It's gonna be a while sadly, I have quite a lot of ongoing projects on the industrial side of ME lately.

Gods above mate, either you've got mad spare time or you need way more sleep than you're getting, don't get me wrong I'm hella grateful to see this old gem polished up again and getting some new work but this kinda shit has got to be pure liquid burn-out

Thank you for fixing something that needed to be fixed. It's a kindness you've given to remove that pesty little itch that was wiggling in my mind while playing.
