AsianEvolusioner Learn how to BAT

[AsianEvolusioner 18]

NOTE: this is the first time i post my BAT project in ST. I' still learning how to BAT....

This time, i wanna make a BAT, maybe i can say it is w2w, but actualy it's not.....

i use some of japanese mid-rise buildings as reference and of course i do alot of modifications.....

My current mission in BATting is making some of modern mid-rise buildings ( i like asian building). But my projects, will not 100% asian. I make a BAT to show some evolutions in Asian architecture. And i do more fictional BAT

SO i also need your help to give comment and suggestion to my BAT.

My Finished BAT

Status : Released ---------------- Link

Very nice work. you've certainly got some talent. obviously it's a continuous process of perfecting your work, but it's easy to see that what you release will be of high quality. Allow me to be the first to say, "Welcome to Simtropolis." you will meet some great BATers soon i bet. JasonCW is very helpful and a skilled BATer and happens to be the moderator of this forum, any questions on anything from the site to BAT, he's your best bet. welcome and good luck!

[patriots_1228 51]

welcome to ST the first attempt is better than my BATs already so im betting you'll be good. i like it!

[Jasoncw 11,839]

Yes, very good so far! 

Look through the Omnibus and read the BAT tutorials there.  There is also a texturing tutorial in my signature.  

If you ever have any questions, just ask them.

forget about it's nightlighting...... i wast just a test.....

i want to change some parts of this kind of building like doors, windows, and bilbo.....

i hope you give a comment or suggestion for my BATs.......

[AsianEvolusioner 18]

sorry for double post....: note to Mods : could u merge my current post with previous one? i cannot find "modify" function in this forum thread..... where??  nevermind, i've found it......

here's an update for my BAT..... 90% complete for main building (texture is not final).....

Any suggestion???

[2ch.net simplayer 180]

You could copy some elements from my past work like this one.

[AsianEvolusioner 18]

wow very nice model, i can make a BAT based on yours with a little modification(roof, sides walls, and texture.... but, can u give me another pics of this BAT, especialy for all direction view...

[nofunk 1,933]

Wow. You're off to a very good start! I look forward to seeing more progress.

[AsianEvolusioner 18]

thanks for your comment.... but for this two weeks... i dont have much time to do some updates, coz i will have  a final exam next week..... so maybe my BAT progress will be slow..... hope you understand...... but i promise, all BATs you can see here, will be rendered and LOTed ASAP ( i hope i'm allowed to release them in STEX)............

[Q-Tips 37]

Hi. I like what i see. Realy cool if you ask me!!! If there is anything worth mention who i would chanced, it would be the wall texture on the last building, the bricks are almost same size as the windows and that is a bit big. However i do like the darked spots at the top of the wall close to the roof. It gives it an realistic feeling.

[Glenni 1,444]

Hey, you're the guy who's sarungman at sc4d, right? Anyway some great progress from when i last saw your thread there!

[AsianEvolusioner 18]

yah, you're right glenni..... i'm happy that you remember me.......

[Cockatoo 2,256]

Those are awesome! I've wanted some more Asian city block pack style buildings for a long time

[AsianEvolusioner 18]

@*****atoo-210893...... yeah mee, too..... i'm always waiting for someone making BAT in asian style. But it's only a few of them who make it. I like asian style more than euro or else..... i hope i can contribute myself to people who want to make asian style city.

so this is my three BATs which are only a few step to be released..... (not finished: nightlighting)

in fact i wanna make some low rise row shops.... but i should finish these BAT first..... i

f there is any suggestion,let me know before i render these BATs........

[Jasoncw 11,839]

I think that you should make the windows brighter.  Even if they are "black" in the game, they shouldn't be literally black.  To see what "black" is in the game, take a screenshot from the game of a black building, and use the color selector tool in Photoshop or MS Paint to see what the color really is.

[Sim shady 12]

looks great eager to see these on the stex! I feel for you on the finals coming up XP Ugh...so much cramming to do...so little time...

[Cockatoo 2,256]

The updates are very nice. All of these buildings would make a wonderful addition to any city! Can I reccomend that you ues colourful nightlighting- that really helps give it a nice touch

[Shadow Assassin 336]

Wow, nice modelling. Suggestion: On that plain concrete side (the grey part) of each building, you should have a faded billboard there or something. Of course, it'd be different for each building, but it's just a suggestion.

[AsianEvolusioner 18]

okay...... final step in BAT after i've done with nightlighting......

After this, i'm gonna render these BATs,

for now, any suggestion before i start rendering? sorry if cant make colorful nightlighting ....

[2ch.net simplayer 180]

Billboards with Chinese/Japanese/Korean characters than just English?

[AsianEvolusioner 18]

that's the problem..... i'm indonesian, i dont understand japanese/chinese/korean language (i know i can use google translator for that problem). But actually, i use japan/china/korea building just for the reference..... and not until my BATs are really really asian style......

And for optional i can make my BATs with Japanese/chinese/korean characters if someone provides me th bilbo..... so i dont do any hard effort to make bilbo in those languages....

if until 24 hours from i post this post, no one gives any sggestion i'll continue my work to rendering process....

[skyliner22 16]

Try these on for size! The Japanese billboards on those buildings would be excellent for my CJ!

Just for some reference

[AsianEvolusioner 18]

yah, skyliner22, becozof your idea, i make japanese billboard..... like these.....

How do you think?? if you want some billboards more, just send me pics (i hope bigger than before, or you make it by yourself (for the bilbo and then send me the pics).....

NOTE: the pics above is final.....now i'm in rendering process, i'll release this BATs next week.... stay tune!!!

After this BATs release, i'll continue my project into Modern Commercial Office (fictional of course) and still in Asian Style (i hope so)................ please wait......

[tankmank 853]

[bixel 1,221]

[AsianEvolusioner 18]

yup, those three my previous BATs have been rendered..... and i'll release them ASAP...
