[JEC 100]

buenas noches, jeronij

gracias para su entusiasmo; actualmente, soy bueno.

pero, yo no he hablado espa

[Superchan 23]

that looks great, could you consider doing New York Cities former Pennsylvania Station.

[cammo2003 20]

Great start. This thing looks massive. Keep it up.

EDIT: Just saw some photos of the place. Damn, can't wait for this one!

[Lord_Bertrum 3]

An excellent BAT and a great memorial for all of us, let us not forget those who were injured, sometimes they're forgotten about as we think of the dead. Many people have to go on with missing limbs and shattered lives.

[JEC 100]

well, it's been a while...

 

need i say more?

 

oh, anyone know why the tiled roof texture rendered strangely? i've also started the new part of the station (shouldn't take too long), this is just the winter garden.

Hey JEC,

Wow! That thing is massive and extraodinary! I can't wait to have that in one or more of my cities, also how will the trains get out with the tracks level below street level?

By subway ofcourse

[Superstar 69]

Wow! This is gonna be huge when complete! Good luck and awesome work

[Lord_Bertrum 3]

JEC This is an absolute masterpiece

[Mickebear 2]

your station is stunning, and really very appropriate memorial for the catastrophy of 11 March.

[GoaSkin 2]

A little bit off-topic:

Does anybody want to create a Cercanias-train?



@MikeBear:

I shot a photo of an underground station: somehow with a devils message. There are many pentagrams in the roofs and the sign of the spanish commute trains on the top. Rumors that this station opened 666 days before the march 11, 2004 are not true (it's much older).

[madawac 48]

This is simply stunning JEC! Looks so good. Can't wait to dl it.

@GoaSkin

This sounds a bit very strange.
Pentagrams are no devil messages, it's totally the opposite: pentagrams are protecting symbols, not evil. They are drawn to protect from demons! So if you look at this from this point, the trains should've been protected by the pentagrams.
Sorry for off topic

[JEC 100]

hey, thanks everyone.

GoaSkin, i have though of making the cercanias-trains, the ave trains, and the metro (8000) trains, but i don't know how to do graphics.

 

but i do know how to make really big bats:

 

the winter garden doesn't have any exporting errors, just the usual virtual memory limit (which could be a problem this time).

but, i haven't decided exactly how i am going to divide the puerta de atocha,

 

btw, currently the lot size will be 13 x 41 [:0]

[frogface 352]

wow that is amazing
might it be better to split the old building and new into 2 seperate lots? 13x41 sounds a bit big
I may give an AVE train skin a try, i cant model but i can re-skin and its very similar to a TGV model

[ardecila 124]

JEC - would you mind rotating that little building next to the terminal, and releasing it seperately?

I like it very much.

thanks.

[Rezidor 0]

Wow,it's very very great!

MfG Rezidor

[jacqulina 162]

great work

[NicolaiS 8]

I don't think there is a better way then this building in remberence of the 3/11 Madrid bombings. This is an astoudingly great BAT and I am very looking forward to see it complete. The size ... it fits nicely on a big city tile and man will my rail look more realistic then ever.

Thanks in advance for a truly great BAT.

 

[sharkbait16 0]

Wow, that's huge!  What's the biggest building ever released on STEX, area-wise?

[GoaSkin 2]

I think there are some airports with a bigger size.


@JEC: I cannot run any software for creating models. To create train skins you need to create one bitmap file where the graphics of all sides are merged one after another.

I think Trolca or Mikeseith can help you with that. Just have a look to the Topic Train MODs in the forum Modding - Open Discussion!

[thebestguy 0]

Hey JEC, iwas going to propose this building before the anniversary of the bombings, actually i did try it, but it didn't get posted, don't know why. I'm currently living in Madrid and i can tell you that is a very acurate building you got there, very nice, but you could also do the circular building which is the one above the cercanias station at one side of the cloktower. But nice all the same!!!!!

Are you going to post it in the stex? i would love to have it in my city

[debussyman 1,348]

That's a great station. It's very big.

Good luck with it

[mambomumba 8]

Wonderful JEC

Please, finish this project. I want at least one of your half-made buildings in my city before I get married... ( I'm fourteen at the moment... )!!!!

This could easily be split into two lots that could work either seperately or could be placed next to each other.

[JEC 100]

ardecila, are you talking about the small building in the bottom right corner? if so, i could probably do that.

GoaSkin, thanks for that information, now that i think about it, the models aren't a problem, for the 8000 metro i could use the bart trains, the tgv for the ave, and i know there is one i could use for the cercanias.

 

hopefully i'll be able to release this building here, and at capitalsimcity.com

oh and thebestguy, i'n already a step ahead of you :

http://img117.echo.cx/my.php?image=atocha9qa.jpg

 

the parking is higher than it really is for it to work well in simcity, so i placed a memorial there, instead of the entrance (the circular building).
