SimCity 4 had a huge impact on me. I think it also helped me acquire a career in Building Information Modeling (BIM). I pointed my interviewers to my content for SimCity 4 - and my knowledge of Autodesk products (from modding and building making). Really working hard on your passion will yield results. Kudos to Haljackey for the article

Great job!

Great, I will check that out, perhaps I can iron out some wrinkles myself.

Is this still active? Do you have a working mod? If so (and Asset Tool works) I can start work on my HK projects for this game (Finally..............) Additionally you said there is room for 6 more Zone Types. I am pretty decent at C# and I will look at the repository or maybe even fork it. I was thinking we can restrict ResidentialLow, ResidentialHigh to 6x6 (use a conditional) and create 2 new Zone Types ResidentialDense, CommercialDense and allow that to open to 8x8

http://gamedev.stackexchange.com/questions/66312/quads-vs-triangles Personally I am still learning the UV-unwrap stuff, cause texturing for these models is very very hard compared to SC4. But I will be releasing some buildings pushing 4000. There are many tricks to keep detail while removing polys. So my recommendations; 1 Cull faces not visible by camera, and all 'under' faces.. even if you like to go FPS mode. 2 Replace fence model or balcony model with a texture with alpha channel. 3 Trim excess detail even though this is artistically painful... 4 Examine parts of the model where a surface could be remodel cleaner

Pretty sure its javascript.

Lemme know when we are able to add buildings. I've been playing Mirror's Edge, its really inspiring because the buildings are texture very basic-like but its rendered beautifully like Simcity2013 I want to get some custom buildings in the game soon.
