About This File

Simcoe Place

by 6459978.

A minutely detailed recreation of the 30 story office tower in Toronto, Canada. Everything from the roof junk to the truck loading bay is recreated here faithfully. BAT features include realistic, full interior nightlighting, as well as transparency mapped windows. The lot comes in both growable and ploppable forms, with stats that complement the game's original buildings.

This lot has been a long time in the making, and I owe credit to some dedicated "behind the scenes" contributers. In no particular order: many thanks to T Wrecks who created and tweaked all the lots for this BAT, as well as providing a superb custom menu icon and readme, and thanks also to the "super-renderers" SC4 meister and Pooty for their persistence in producing a great final product.

Dependencies:

None at all!

Package Info:

The zip file contains everything you'll need, and a few things you shouldn't copy into your plugins folder. Only copy the SC4model file located directly in the zip and one (or more) of the contained lot files. Do not copy the screenshots or the readme into your plugins folder as this could degrade the game's performance.

CO$$ Ploppable
CO$$$ Growable
CO$$$ Ploppable
Landmark

More than one of these lots can be used at the same time.

I don't know how you would want me to work on the night-lighting. If you look closely you'll see that it is fully interior night-lighting with interior geometry. Completely realistic -- this building has no massive floodlights on it if that's what you mean.

Awsome I walk past this building almost everyday. You should do the CBC building next to it.

Ever since it came out, this has always been an important building in my cities. The planning for my downtowns usually starts with plopping this, and building around it. Time tested, very well made.

@Evil Weasel: You have most probably just copied one of the sub folders to your plugin, and missed the model file. Please stop making a fool out of yourself every now and then. Tip: if everything works fine for eveyone but you - think before you post!

6459978 must have moved on to great things after this. Can't believe I downloaded all his residential bats and missed out this one. Btw, I agreed that almost all pictures of his bats on the STEX don't do justice to the quality of his work.

12 years later and this still looks fresh! You were so ahead of your time it's a shame you don't BAT anymore. Your second upload, Stephens Drive I think, was years ahead of anyone else in terms of quality and concept. I just got back in to the game after a 2 or 3 year absence and I'm (re)downloading custom content and (re)discovering familiar accounts--so glad I found you!
