About This File

This is the Quadrahedron Matrix orignally made by 2ch.net simplayer

 

If you ever downloaded the original version of this, you'll notice it suffers an extremely bad case of the plop-without-a-building disease.  Meaning that even though it was just a landmark with jobs, it would suddenly start to "grow" in your cities but leave behind an empty lot with no props on it.  The original version as it was modded was basically unusable.

 

I have re-modded and re-lotted this file.  I worked for a long time on it and finally the only way I could think of to make it right again was to turn one of the models into a landmark building with the others as props.  The original included different versions with many "tiers."  This version has only the one-tiered type in four different configurations.  They are:

 

A standalone version:  No bridges

A corner version:  Two bridges forming a corner

A side version:  One bridge (pictured)

A T version:  Three bridges forming a T configuration

 

At least the 1-tiered version is by far big enough for most people's purposes.  When carefully plopped properly, connecting the bridges, you can create a network of interconnected towers in a lattice, or "matrix."

 

Stats for my re-modded version:

 

Lot size:  4x4

Plop cost:  $50,000

Monthly maintenance:  $150

Minimal garbage, electricity, and mayor rating effect

 

Realistic?  Probably not so much.  But let's face it.  Anyone downloading this isn't particularly concerned with realism anyway.  1.gif

 

Thanks of course goes to 2ch.net simplayer for the fantastic models here.  Unfortunately, he is long gone from the SC4 world and was not around to ask for permission.  I asked around with the STEX "experts" on ST and they all feel it's okay to do this.  It's a shame that the original had such severe problems with the modding, since it's such a brilliant model.  It's high time that people are able to use and enjoy it.

 

So enjoy it!

Edit by moderator Terring: The lots of the buildings have no textures. To fix this, make sure you have PEG MTP SUPER PACK

What's the story here, has the STEX 10MB cap been lifted? I've seen a couple of new files lately that are way in excess of that, this included. It still says in the rulebook that we need permission from the big guy upstairs to upload over the limit, is that still the case now that 10MB+ files are being processed. If so I better go tell Bixel to stop chopping up his mega complexes!

I REALLY hope this doesn't crash my game when i try to plop it. lol Big bats like this tend to give my simcity a heartattack, like when i tried to use a space elevator bat. Hopefully this will work. Now about the bat, great work! To you zel, and to 2ch.net for the overall models. 9/10

Glad you modded this one! I was coming in a flu of empty lots while testing buildings and mods for Simmars. But as for the 10MB limit. No lock-ups for such files? I'm surpised.

Rebs mentioned "Arcologies". I thought the same thing. Reminded me of the Arcology Dome from CIV 4 BTS from one of the futuristic war mods set in the not so distant future. Very cool!
