Ancient Greek Temple  1.0

   (22 Reviews)

About This File

In addition to my very first BAT ever, an Ancient Greek Theatre (http://community.sim...-greek-theatre/) I present: an Ancient Greek Temple! I learned how to texture in 3ds max, so the temple is looking way better than the theatre, but I'll probably change the textures of my theatre in the future.

 

Stats:

Plop cost: §0 (as the Ancient Greek built it)

Monthly cost: §50

Bulldoze cost: 25,000§ (as it is on the UNESCO list and isn't supposed to be demolished at all)

Landmark effect: 100, radius: 50

Park effect: 100, radius: 50

 

No dependencies.

 

Enjoy!

It's a great BAT, especially for a first! But it'd be great to see it more "ruined", maybe making second version with a more decayed appearance? That'd be really awesome :D But other than that, I'd still give this a 5/5!

What exactly do you mean by "more ruined"? Adding some stones or pillars that are not whole anymore or ... ?

No, like I said: my first BAT was an Ancient Greek Theatre, and in addition, this is an Ancient Greek Temple :)

And well I did in fact UVW map the textures for the pillars, and the roof, but they are too detailed to be rendered. I could try to render the model in HD quality, but wouldn't that be overkill? In 3ds max it looks like this:

The UNESCO list mention is nice :-D. I like this temple! I understand why others expect it to be more ruined - because it reminds of the Parthenon, just surprisingly 'clean'. I don't mind it not too ruined though, let's pretend it was unfinished (no roof) and then stood hidden for three thousand years... somewhere and somehow. But you know what would make this absolutely gorgeous? the [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statue_of_Zeus_at_Olympia]Statue of Zeus[/url] inside (not necessarily gilded). And maybe some altars too.

Well, as you mention unfinished, I based the temple on the temple of Segesta in Sicily (http://www.livius.org/a/italy/segesta/segesta_temple04.JPG, http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/65/Segesta%2C_Tempio_greco_%282%29.jpg) which was in fact unfinished :)
