Here's another great view showing part of the foundation >>

Paul, your last procect is impressive indeed !

At first i did not understand why there was a gap between the two towers on the lower section, but things are much more clear after looking at Bixel's pic.

[paulvmontfort 616]

Thanks for the replies!

@ T Wrecks: Thankyou for your concerns. And I have some good news later in this post . By the way, would you mind modding Pacific Place, I think you're the right man for the job

@ bixel: Thanks fot the images although I already had the first and second. But very much thanks for the last, I could use some reference for the base

And now for the good news:

Simfox sent me an updated script file with which I managed to render Pacific Place without any problems. Day view is now officially ready and I can now continue with the night view , Thanks Simfox!!

That's great news indeed! Concerning the modding job, the problem is I don't really know what the complex could be... Landmark comes to mind, ok. Apart from that, however... maybe a huge CO$$$ plop? Or a CS$$$ plop? A growable just doesn't make sense to me. 

[paulvmontfort 616]

I was thinking of a CO$$$ and CS$$$ ploppable

BTW, It's almost ready:

[Keegan V50 15]

Woah!!! ,that looks impressive!!,top quality batting there paul!,really looking forward it its release 

and since its mainly a hotel,i think it should be C$$$,but if its mixed used,then release both C$$$ and CO$$$ (j/k)

all the best

OMG, congratulations!! This has been what, 4 years in the making - I bet it feels good to finally have this masterpiece over and done with.

[T Wrecks 10,209]

I think we have a page flip... I can't see the last post. 

EDIT

Now it's visible.  4 years, you say? Jeez... Well, it's over and done with BAT-wise, but the modding will take a few days more. I got the menu, the in-game descriptions and the reference design for all three lots done, plus some rough ideas on job numbers and landmark stats. Screenshots have been taken as well. What's left now is the readme document and creating the actual files plus some packaging.

[Keegan V50 15]

Great!!,well looking forward on its release soon!!

all the best

[T Wrecks 10,209]

Well, I PM'ed the link to the final building to Paul a few days ago, so I guess it shouldn't take that much longer. 

[paulvmontfort 616]

Sorry for the long wait. I was on vacation .

I now uploaded Pacific Place and solved the multiple parts issue. You can now download this BAT without any problems .

[Keegan V50 15]

Many thanks Paul!!

all the best

Today I went on the STEX and...oh well, Pacific Place was there!

You put an unbelievable quantity of time and dedication on it, and it's great to see a BAT who took four years to be made finally done.

Thanks Paul !

[paulvmontfort 616]

I've started redoing and improving some of my first mental ray BATs. The first result is on the STEX now: the Bank of America Tower. Also to come are the Bank of China Tower and Y.I.

[SimFox 802]

may be you can take another go at BoA... Night view has odd effect of tower floating in relation of the base...

[paulvmontfort 616]

yeah i know. I made a plane with a iluminating material on it underneath the main tower. But somehow the light is leaking through objects. The light you see on the 2 floors below also comes from this plane. However, I don't know yet if I'll actually make a V3...

[paulvmontfort 616]

I started doing some minor adjusments on this one again

[Simcity player 13]

"gasp"

[tankmank 853]

Wow it's looking epic

[Keegan V50 15]

Damn now that is really something out of this world!!,awesome!

all the best

happy 21st birthday, your three days older than i am lol, have a good one.

[Cockatoo 2,256]

I noticed your name in the birthdays section. 21 eh? Congratulations.

[T Wrecks 10,209]

Yeah, congrats from me as well. Almost 11 yrs younger than me, sheesh... you make me feel old, I'll hate you from now on.

Back to topic: Good to see that the Ryungong (sp?) Hotel is still being worked on, it will certainly look impressive once it's done.

On another note, having seen both cockatoo's mind-boggling golden glass cladding on that Aurora Building and your recent V2 of BOCT, I couldn't help thinking that a Far East Finance Centre V2 with a facade treatment by cockatoo would be a winner,

[tankmank 853]

Happy Birthday

[Jasoncw 11,840]

The hotel is coming along well. I like the panels on the cone part at the top of the building.

Happpy birthday!
