Paeng's Bilyk & Colin Towers  1.0

About This File

Here are two good-looking towers (based on some Maxis originals) that will fit nicely in any setting.

 

A few different versions are included -

 

Grow: 8x3 and 3x8

Stage 6 RES$$$, capacity 994, all styles

 

Plop: 4x2 and 2x4

CO$$$, capacity 432

 

 

DEPENDENCIES

 

* SG 01 Megapack

 

* Porkie Props Vol 01

 

* Paeng Texture Pack v103

 

 

DEVELOPER NOTES

 

The lot is modded in such a way that it will not be stopped by any blockers - in other words, it should show up even if you use Maxis Blockers (BSC) or Peg's MTP Replacements. And it won't replace any default lots either, so you should be able to use it as a plain addon without needing to fiddle with your current setup.

 

At stage 6 and with the footprint in two different orientations you should be able to grow it a bit easier than the elusive originals.

 

Also included are two ploppables as functional landmarks with CO$$$ jobs.

You find them at or near the end of the 'Landmarks' menu with custom icons.

 

 

INSTALLATION

 

Put the whole bundle into "(My )Documents/Plugins".

You can delete any lot you do not wish to use (e.g. the ploppables).

 

To un-install - bulldoze all lots you may have plopped from this pack, then remove it completely from your Plugins.

Another proof that Maxis buildings can look nice when provided the right lots. Great work, Paeng!

I always loved these two maxis towers. But the lotting, as usual was crap. With your relot though, they look as any other high quality BAT. Nice work, Paeng!

Awesome relotting !
Maxis buildings are actually great, but those buildings need some improvement with the lotting. Good job Paeng, 5/5

Fantastic remasters of Maxis content with fantastic lots! My only concern is that they appear to be slightly overscaled.

Very nice addition to my cities. Installed. 5/5
Looks very much like the lot will have to be 3 x 8 as an 8 x 3 will be parcelled out by the game. (tested this).

Nonny, yes - that's why I ended up including both. It takes more patience (and money, for bomb&regrow) to get the 8x3... ;-)

5/5. I like the Maxis buildings but the original Maxis lotting was weird. Thanks for fixing it.

How did you know I was planning to start on a large city and needed some tall buildings?
And, by the way, they look great.....

R$? Who on earth would afford to live in such a building if they were of the lower age classes? XD

Yeah, I was kinda wondering about that comment too - somehow I can't picture this building in a run down low wealth neighborhood, crammed with 3000 residents... ;-)

It's a Maxis building, makes it seem that the Maxis buildings are good on their own, once they replicate and dominate the city, only then does it appear boring and repetitive.
