Your Prisons

Postby EasyPockets » Fri Jan 11, 2013 12:24 am

Hey... So I have been playing this game for well over a month now but I'm consistently running into problems which isn't the main problem or question. The problem is that I feel like I have done every style of prison (indoor, outdoor with little rooms, cluttered, ect.) So if anyone has photos of their prison and would like to share that would be awesome.

This was my attempt at a fairly spacious yet secure little prison I called Hunt. It ran pretty smooth, every prisoner was fed and the only fights were cause because I got bored. Image

Wow, with that many solitary cells are you building Guantanamo?

Looks nice though. Novel shower design too. ;)

Those solitary cells are for my bored moments when I feel like prison wide warfare. And the drains around the shower is because I get really annoyed when a prisoner breaks the toilet, thinking about what's in that water as it spills across my somewhat sparkling clean shower dosn't thrill me.
Yes, that is a penguin with rabies. Deal with it.

LOL'd. Partly off-topic, but how do you guys take screenies of your prisons? When I use printscreen it only shows my desktop and not the prison... Dual nVidia 460s and latest drivers if it matters.

Um, well.. it's a little embarassing. I can't vouch for others, but I use a fraps-type program on linux (recordmydesktop), then play the video back and take a screenshot as it's playing. :)

If I ever supplied a prison save, you'd see the horrible inscrutible shit I get instead of an in-game screenshot.

I use print screen and it paste directly into imgur if I intend on sharing it.

I've done multiple complete full prisons on different threads. Heres a picture of my small 201 prisoner prison. Simple 2x3 cells with 10-20 prisoners per block.

And heres my medium size, with a similar layout.

Yeah, just go to your savegames and you'll find a png image over there :) shortcut: search '%appdata%', then go to Roaming which is in the same folder as Local, where you'll find your saves.

current prison: 24 prisoners inc, fingers crossed they don't destroy my precious prison.

Does your deliveries area still work for new prisoners? I can't find any info on how close to the road it has to be to still be able to accept prisoners.

Good eye; that should cause the infinite garbage loop bug. Or was that fixed in A5? Now I have to go try it...
