INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION MOD -
WALL-TO-WALL INDUSTRY
DDT & Sons by Odd_from_Sweden
1 - INTRODUCTION/OVERVIEW
This is the fourth 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. This time around I dug out a more obscure little BAT that may not be part of practically everybody's plugin suite yet - DDT & Sons by Odd_from_Sweden.
The building will provide 76 I-M jobs. The shape makes it ideal to fill small, 1-tile gaps in existing W2W development. As you can see in the screenshots, it exists in 3 different design variants that will appear randomly (I turned them into a building family). The following lots are included:
- 1x2 straight, Stage 1 (2 lots)
- 1x3 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:
Oddbats - Previously unreleased BATs from the user Odd From Sweden with full permission 1. Only the corresponding .sc4model files are required:
- Oddbats-DDT_And_Sons-0x5ad0e817_0xf9df09d9_0x30000.SC4Model
- Oddbats-DDT_And_Sons-variation-2-0x5ad0e817_0x19df19df_0x30000.SC4Model
- Oddbats-DDT_And_Sons-variation-3-0x5ad0e817_0xd9df2382_0x30000.SC4Model
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).
