Here's an update on the office tower.  I detailed the base some more, and textured the windows and such.  I haven't gotten to the roof yet..

Very nice office tower. I like it!

[hackinosa 29]

Great tower! What are the stores on the far corner that we can't read?

I like the look of the Red Lobster, when is it going ot be released?

 

And your large building is looking great around the base. Can we see a pic showing the whole of the building so far? Even if it isn't finished.

Awesome Office Building so far.

The Red Lobster is already released, just look in the exchange.

[Mexicanboy13r 12]

[vidioman 21]

It looks great! As long as the window lights aren't purple!

I just double checked, and it appears the lampposts were custom, and I didn't catch it.  They are in the Radcliffe Camera building, by Calaban.  It is a really nice building, so i'd recommend downloading it.

I have been a fan of your stuff for a while now. I don't post a lot of messages but I just want to say HOLY COW!! you are a BAT master. Keep it up. BTW this might be the wrong forum but I would love to see a version of Texas Roadhouse (I work there). If you need some pics you can find some at www.texasroadhouse.com .

very nice building, looking very cool
Have some duckies and bunnies for all of your work

[oneil_1 138]

Neat! i like thet!
how do you think doing a mega mall? I think it would be awsome! with sky roof it would make it even better

[SimGoober 2,351]

So many ideas, so little time....  I'm not sure what I will be doing, but as ideas roll into my head, I'll tinker with them.

 

Here's a little update; the office tower is on hold while I figure out what to do with the roof.  I have a completed model, I'm just not happy with the roof.  I'll play with it some more.

 

In the mean time, I started modeling a Perkins Family Restaraunt.  Ironically, I stopped at one on the road, and had a really bad meal.  Probably a fluke, but they forgot to cook the fish in my fish sandwich... not too tasty.  So far, it is just the rough model, with little detailing and no textures.  i may have it done for next Monday, if the weekend goes well.

You are SimNation's corporate guru SimGoober. You have single handidly created most of the stores required that can be found in most power centres and restaurant strips across the USA. Awesome work. I am sure that every member of this site greatly appreciates your work.

SG that Perkins I think is going to be one of your best buildings that i've seen in a while.But All of your buildings rock the Simcity World.

[megaman 1]

Looks like it's another building that we will like and sims in our city will also like because of food and buisness.

One idea for a store after your done Perkins and the office tower, Giant is a one of the leading supermarkets in the Washington D.C area.

[hackinosa 29]

the Perkin's is good-looking so far, i've been to a few on trips down south, and i haven't been too impressed, lol

[HoustonBAT 0]

I think it looks Home Town -ish... (The Resteraunt) But its GOOD!

I like the Building, I am getting tired of the Spires and orignal designs everyone is doing, its not a complete skyline with out a 1960's black box.. I am serious! Every City has one!

Thanx Goober your lots bring life to our cities.

very nice work here

Here's a different style of office building I am tinkering with.  It's a more suburban style, and I want to do a few of these.  This one is rather big, about 6 tiles long, but only 12 stories tall.

 

I need some feedback on this style.  I haven't really played with the roof yet, and am trying to decide how much to junk it up.  I kind of like it bare (I'll play with the textures), but I'm wondering if I should add either a few large HVAC units, or a couple mechaninical rooms.  Mose of the smaller towers like this I see either have roofs completely covered in junk, or almost bare...

 

[subedei 3]

That looks awsome SG. Thats exactly what SC4 needs. Keep up the great work.

Looks interesting...... What has happen to your brand name buildings?

[ardecila 124]

He's still kinda doing them. See the Perkins a few posts up?

SG: That office building looks great. You need to reduce the night-windows usage, though. A lot of people who work in such suburban offices don't work nights.

BTW, SG: what would you recommend to put in the back of a small fast-food restaurant? Help would be appreciated.

When I play the game I prefer bare roofs b/c I associate 'junk' w/ Dr. Vu.  However, now that I want to BAT I now notice stuff on practically every roof.  I think a tiny curvy shaped air conditioner outlet and a couple of vents can potentially be realistic looking without being gaudy or obsequious.
