Showcase Houses

[Rei of the Sea]

Does anyone know of a place, where people have uploaded their workshops for others to import into their showcase tab? I suck at building houses, and I want some options.

I'd like to know this also .. plus is there a way to TOUR the houses? Try before you buy?

The ability to tour the houses would be great. Purchased a house thinking it had two floors and was spacious but it was only one floor with two small rooms...

I've started putting together a guide to show the footprint and screenshots of the initial houses that the devs organised for us,
https://steamcommunity.com/app/1084600/discussions/0/6770657417434606900/

It would be great to see more information in the Showroom Manual.
Agree with previous comments, that for something that costs such a lot of money we should be able to have a preview of some kind.

Just doing these existing houses for the guide takes quite a while to do. There needs to be a better way long term.

I've done a bit of testing and now wondering if the devs have yet to finish a workshop system for us to publish our own creations.

What I've worked out so far ...
1. In building mode, create a house.
2. Using the Save Showroom options I called it Bearnwyn
3. It is now visible in my Showroom Manual
4. The Export option saves the file with BDP_load of numbers.bp2 in a folder of my choosing.
5. I used the Import Template option which added another page to my manual.

Question ...
Can any of you see it?
I'm guessing not as it feels like an incomplete process.

Devs - If you read this, please comment.

The tutorial says "When you get a showroom file from your friends, you can import them in the manual, and then you can build it after successful import." I take that to mean we have to have the file already to be able to use it in game.

I did this also. It was a pretty house, but in game there was nothing to the inside. I think it was M_03.

I saw your guide and it's awesome. It will def help with the existing options. I was hoping to find people who had already uploaded their file to the internet, so I could import some more options. Some of the existing houses, have weird rooms, that you can't get to from the rest of the house. Which for me bothers me.

I see a couple of options on reddit, one is really nice looking, but huge and probably very expensive. lol

I was only able to find one on reddit. IT seems it's not a major used feature by others I guess.

You should be able to put your .bp2 files online to share. The only showrooms I have found were in the Nexus Mods website, but there are some really great ones

The instructions you shared are really helpful, Rei of the Sea! I wanted to confirm that my series of numbers in the path is the same as what you listed.

Has anyone else been having trouble with the showroom being buggy? I see duplicates of some showrooms instead of what I expect to see. If I scroll forward then back, sometimes I will get stuck in the showroom. I will always get stuck and have to turn off the game if I use the second screen of the showroom where it shows a preview in the main construction app instead of the book. If I click one of those showrooms, a pop-up shows me the furniture in the build, but I cannot click accept or close on that pop-up. I usually have to exit the game from the steam library page, losing progress.
