Jin Mao Tower 1.0

Looks very nice. Good detail. Love the fact that it gives you CO$$$ jobs. 5/5.

Very nice building! Any dependancies?

YEAH! This v.2 is good! 5/5

Light rig is too small, there are no shadows on the top 40% of the tower. This is a rather large issue that is easy to spot, I don't see why people aren't rushing to the forums asking how to fix it.

Model looks decent, but the textures are rather bland from what I can see in the small picture (We could use a bigger one). You have a lot of talent, I just wish you put in a little more effort to iron out issues, If you went that far I'd say this would be spectacular.

isnt there one on the stex already?

Didnt batman jump out of this building?

Can you tell me where it is i can't find it?

How does this have over 2,800 Downloads with only 1000 views? The numbers on this seem inflated for how little time it has been uploaded.

@simhottoddy: that is rather wierd but still the bat looks nice

I think this has been released before: https://www.simtropolis.com/stex/details.cfm?id=25117

Wait, but the lighting is different though.

this actually look better than the older one. but the boxy building next to it seems to lack textures. does it really look like that?

cool building ... mao was a capitalist.

this is 6x5(glow)??i cant find it in plop.

English is not the uploader's first language, so I guess one reason why he is not seeking much help to improve his bats is obvious, which is a shame, as I aint going to download huge bats with huge flaws.

Looks Great, but it is growable or ploppable because it is not in the landmark section nor grows. Are there dependencies? What is wrong?

it is only growable.

What is the building to the left? it looks really cool.

i cant find in the landmarks!. can someone please help me because this happens a lot

The Jin Mao Tower (金茂大厦) was actually designed by a group in Chicago, Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, I believe. The thought was to modernize and extrapolate upon traditional Chinese architecture, thus creating a tiered pagoda of steel and glass. It is also modeled after the superstition, where it is built in patterns of 8 (八), so as to be close to the emperor and thus the gods, which would be nine (九） for good fortune. The Grand Hyatt is located in the upper floors, and from the observation deck which allows an inside glimpse of Puxi （浦西）and Pudong (浦东）as well as interior view which is a spiral of lights. Quite beautiful inside, out, and visually. At least that is what I can remember from when I went there in 2000.

You'll need the extra cheats dll to find it...you have to look for it in the buildingplop menu in the 'J' section...

Nicely done, but it's a little hard to find within the game.
