Athens Style Apartment Block  1.0

About This File

This is an accurate model of a typical Apartment building found all around Athens. There are thousands of these that today create the sprawling white metropolis that is Athens.

 

This is my first real BAT. I wanted to make a set for my city of Athenian style 60s buildings and this is the first in my series.

 

Its accuracy even goes down to the awful sunshades that litter the Athenian Skyline!

I really hope you enjoy my work as it is really my first attempt at a serious building in BAT and I hope for more to come soon...

 

It comes in two versions, Growable R$$ and Ploppable LM.

No dependencies are required here.

 

PART TWO IS NOW AVAILABLE HERE.

 

Thanks to Glenni for all his good help and advice with gmax on the Simtropolis Chat. I really Appreciate it.

Pretty darn cool....seems a bit out of proportion though...maybe its too big? The scale seems off....look at the tiny cars parked next to it.

I think the cars are disproportionate...Look at the tennis court...It looks correct to me but then put a car on the court and look how small they are... Now comapre the bat with the court and looks correct...So its a matter of picking something to scale against I guess..

It's bootylicious, man! I would have preferred if they were closer to the edge so the 'linked' together but that is just my way. Good job any. :)

Ill definetly keep your suggestion in mind, I was originally going to do it that way but I thought people would prefer it with a bit of space. They are pretty close together nontheless. Cheers Guys :)

Indeed, I removed it from the plugins again, design is OK but the building is way too large, factor 2 smaller and it would fit in.

I'm sorry to tell you that I had to remove it from my plugin folder as well. compared to other buildings in the game it is way too large scaled. Just compare yourself with the left pixture above. the blue building right to it has how many storey - 20? 25? 30? and your building, half the size has only four? no way - it doesn't look good in the game. but still, it is a nice BAT, just downscale it and I would like to see it again!

Wow, the ceiling heights are pretty high. Higher than standard buildings of the same number of floors
