New World Rototuna
(Fully Mac Compatible)



New World is a super market brand that exists in New Zealand. This is a recreation of the store in Hamilton, in the suburb Rototuna, hence the name of the BAT. This is my work place, so I know every nook and cranny, however I have taken artistic liberty and changed a few aspects of the building that I thought were imperfect in the real model, or which would things that wouldn't show up well in SC4.

Fully Mac Compatible means that it would work with all of simcitys fancy gizmos. The main thing to notice here is that the nightlighting works on the mac versions. There was never was any update for nightlighting on macs, so custom content never had working nightlighting. A fix has been known for a while now, but just never put into use due to the lack of demand. However, being a mac user, I had to make sure that these work.

EDIT: I uploaded an old picture by mistake, new picture zoomed in showing cars.

Details about this lot:

Its a functional landmark.

Cost: 9000
Jobs: 96
No Dependencies

I hope you like it, its not quite my first Bat, its my second, first one got stuck in the STEX somewhere, lets hope this one stays safe.

I have been to that shop in Hamilton! I can see you have modified it slightly, but it looks great! Are there any cars? 5/5

This is a nice looking bat, with a realistic amount of parking. The addition of cars if they are not included will help this a lot. Very nice job.

Great building. I was in Hamilton New Zealand in 2009 and I think I remember passing this. And I definitely remember the New World chain. The name sounds farmiliar. Anyway this looks like any supermarket would and I especially like the car park. It is nicely set out.

nice work Hamish, particularly the mac night lights. I have moved on to a bootcamp PC installation, but it cetainly would've been a novelty back in the day to have some CC with lights!

I never really visited Hamilton the last time I was in Kiwiland! Nice BAT anyway.

As a fellow mac user, I salute your effort and this fine grocery store. BTW, what ID range did you use for the nightlights on this building? I've done a few buildings myself, and need to make sure it doesn't conflict.

@HisDivineHand I think it was 162 or 163, something around there. I might make a thread in the mac forums soon to document what ID numbers are taken or something like that...

Thank you for this great work that works perfectly well, (lighting), on Mac version of the game, which is rarely the case. Greetings from France.
