Nycc06 rocks

Yeah - I'm just practicing Batting in 3dsmax, so atleast one of us could render it with proper lighting, shadows, etc. But good to hear from you.

[Vlasky 1,803]

just WOW! Can't wait release!

Hey guys, gosh, its been a while since i posted in my thread, but anyway, i haven't forgotten about the glorious world of BAT, just a quick update, i will be releasing, not 1, not 2, but 3 bats on Christams day this year. They will inlucde the two previously exclusive bats, the Hammond Tower and Amethyst Tower as well as the long awaited Four World Trade Center. I'll post some new pics of the 4wtc over the weekend so keep watching.

Here's the new update on 4WTC. The roof still needs to be modelled and so does the remainder of the base. More updates soon.

[SimFox 802]

you lighting rig is faulty - notice how top part of the model doesn't cast shadow on itself

[Simcity player 13]

looks great

[nycc06 229]

don't worry simfox, i am aware of the lighting rig problem. It will be corrected before the bat will be released.

the 4wtc looks perfect! looking forward the next pictures and the night version.

[nycc06 229]

hi everyone, heres a new update on the final renders of 4WTC before its release on Friday.

     

[SimFox 802]

something is wrong with night view... if you look at the top of the tower it is brighter (albeit bluer too) than day view... But that is sort of technical glitch.

Another matter is how brightly lit areas at the base are sitting next to totally black ones... it looks odd and unnatural which spoils the tower itself. You could lighten the texture on the base and use omnies rather than spots there

[Aaron Graham 4,417]

WOW!! it looks good you need to be on the NYBT if you want to be on the team just PM Simcity4fan12 to be on the NYBT team.

[T Wrecks 10,209]

Wow, that's looking great!

Is the texture on that whitish roof junk final, though? The way it is, these parts stand out a bit too much, I think... other than that, I don't see anything that hasn't been mentioned yet.

However, I'm curious about the lot on which you intend to put this one. The irregularly shaped and angled base won't make it easy to find a lot design that works well in game, at least not for a regular, non-overhanging lot.

hi guys, merry christmas, just a quick note, i've been trying all week to get 4WTC to export and have so far been unsuccessful. Because of this, i will only be releasing the two exclusive bats today. not to worry, i will be releasing 4WTC as soon as i can get it to export. Thanks for the trixie as well guys, and have a great christmas

[Nomadic 23]

You did an excellent job on these two exclusive BATs, they will definitely be on my CJ.

However when i was about to download the file and see this

More downloads than views, I hope it is a glitch and nothing bad.

[nycc06 229]

Good news everyone, i finally got Four World Trade Centre to export today and it will be released on Jan 2nd 2010 to the stex. So happy new year everyone!

[Keegan V50 15]

[kellydale2003 2,276]

WHAT!? You won a trixie!?

Congrats Nyc006!!!

Wow haha - I always disappear before the trixies. But you were absent forever! Congrats my friend.

[nycc06 229]

Thanks for the congrats on the trixie and thanks for the comment on 4wtc. The next tower i plan to make is two world trade center, but it won't be ready till probably late May this year.

[nycc06 229]

Heya guys, back for a little bit, here's a quickie render of my next mini project, the Corby N1 Tower, which should be ready for release by early summer. Its a 345m commercial tower for my New Autsin collection. Let me know what you think. BTW for all those wondering, the new world trade center project will be completed, (eventually, lol) and i will start work on the next phase WTC Tower 2 (aka 200 Greenwich Street Tower) after University's over in the early summer. The plan is to have the WTC project including towers 2, 3 and 5 completed by the end of the summer and the whole complex by next year. Until then i leave you with this pic.

[nycc06 229]

[nycc06 229]

Good news everyone, should be finished university for the summer in a couple of weeks so i'll be able to start working on the WTC project again. Until then i have a new release for 19th May to celebrate my 20th birthday. The Castle Reach Tower can be seen in the renders below.
