About This File
INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION MOD -
WALL-TO-WALL INDUSTRY
BSP Aluminum Architectural Metal Company (AAMC) by SimHoTToDDy
1 - INTRODUCTION/OVERVIEW
This is the first upload in the third (and probably final) series of IRM W2W lots based on BAT models made by other artists, this time a mix of dirty and manufacturing industry. Let's kick this off with some more BSP stuff, namely BSP Aluminum Architectural Metal Company (AAMC) by SimHoTToDDy.
The building will provide 80 I-D jobs. Since it is basically a snug fit towards all sides, I decided to leave it on a very simple, tight-wrapping lot so you can use filler lots or let mech/anchor lots develop behind the building. You can slo integrate it into tight W2W areas with house rows situated back to back. Since the building looks pretty similar front and back, you might not even have noticed it on the screenshots, but I actually flipped the building for some more variety. Hence, the two following lots are included:
- 1x2 straight, stage 1 (2 lots)
In keeping with the other IRM stuff, the job numbers are intended to be in line with Maxis stuff if you use Toroca's Industrial Jobs Quadrupler. Since you cannot zone large coherent areas with W2W industrial and the lots can be complemented with fillers, the resulting job density will, in fact, be not that excessive. For the same reason, growth stages for IRM W2W are generally kept low.
2 - USE
If you extract this archive to your root plugins folder, it should create a folder IRM\IRM W2W Expansion\[NAME OF BAT], where [NAME OF BAT] represents the name of this download item. Within that folder, you will find all the game-relevant files and a sub-folder containing the HTML readme and some screenshot(s).
If you no longer wish to use this download, proceed as follows:
- Bulldoze all lots pertaining to this download
- Save all the cities and exit the game when you're done bulldozing
- Remove the associated files from your plugins folder
Hint: Just to be sure, I recommend moving the undesired files somewhere else and doing some checks before you delete them permanently. This way, if it turns out you forgot to bulldoze something, you can add it back in temporarily until you're done.
3 - DEPENDENCIES
IRM W2W Base Pack
Since this is an extension to the IRM, all the dependencies of the original IRM base pack still apply.
In addition to this, you'll need the original upload of the BAT to see the building:
BSP Aluminum Architectural Metal Company. Only the .sc4model file is required.
If you want to have the option of blocking the enclosed lots from growing temporarily, for example when you want to go back to regular (i.e., non-W2W) IRM industry for a while, you can use the IRM W2W Expansion Blocker v 3.0 (or higher) from November 22, 2016 (or later).
