[Ion_Cannon 677]

Ah you're alive, looking forward to seeing more of your work, and hopefully a release or two

[dubaidude303 1,119]

Glad your back!! Your BAT's are amazing! Hope to see some of your stuff on the STEX soon! Welcome back!   

[HOOK21 10]

i'd love to see a metro or a&p grocery store.

[Heblem 600]

Any suggestions?

 

[HansonNY 4]

Good lord! You're back! Not sure where that is but it reminds me of the Vatican a bit.

 

BTW, whatever happened to your BAT of the Time Warner Center and Hearst Tower?

[Aaron Graham 4,417]

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Your back!!! but, that building deserve over 20 thumbs up!!!

 

 

Come one guys let the thumbs up game begin!!!

[benno2005 105]

this looks fantastic great work

[art128 4,618]

Posting again as if it wasn't almost two years again..... Oh Heblem....

 

Looking awesome, excellent detailing!

[noahclem 262]

Looks awesome! Very nice to hear something from you

 

I'd suggest maybe lightening the white roof texture

[Bastet69008 1,102]

I initially thought someone had bumped the thread...Welcome back amigo!

[JP Schriefer 5,590]

 

Wow, suggestions? There is no mortal in the world who can give suggestions to make this better!

[Thin White Duke 4,072]

Well, maybe it's the lighting, but it does look a wee bit oversaturated, tbh.

[madhatter106 3,903]

My suggestion - finish it and release it! 
Glad to see you back again...

[Compdude787 916]

That looks amazing! It's great to see someone from the "olden days" return! I do agree that it looks a bit too bright, especially in the second picture. But, in that first picture, I thought I was looking at a real photo!

[__A 792]

WHAT. That's amazing!!!!!

 

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Your back!!! but, that building deserve over 20 thumbs up!!!

 

 

Come one guys let the thumbs up game begin!!!

Done!

[weixc812 509]

looks awesome!!! It's such a graceful and delicate piece of art!

[Toothless Stitch 2,901]

Haha, what. Just oh Heblem, and than, BAAAAM. Wow, always thought you were more of a modder. 

[darn42 1,268]

Wowee!

 

That modeling is the tastiest I've ever seen. A lot of the details are being lost in the render quality. I'm assuming that you are planning to up the noise sampling, but make sure you do no matter what. There are a lot of artifacts and striations that are noisy atm.

 

Seriously, though.... Wow.

[Jorge_carrillo 140]

 

Any suggestions?

 

 

 

 

Me imagino que quieres hacerle competencia a Debussyman eh? jajaja te ha quedado espectacular, ¿Es el Palacio Legislativo que tenía proyectado Porfirio Díaz verdad?

 

Pero si me permites, le faltan 4  patios, esas losas enormes que forman la techumbre impedirían la entrada de luz a las oficinas más cercanas al domo, fíjate en el plano que te anexo, hazle unos patios.

 

I Imagine that you want to compete with Debussyman ah? (Debussyman is also a Mexican as Heblem and I)  That's the Congress Palace that Porfirio Díaz had projected, isn't it?

 

But if you allow me , you mised 4 patios, those large ceilings may dark quite a bit the offices closest to the dome. look at the plane I brought you here attached, make those patios.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Que gracias a la revolución nunca se concluyó

 

(Unfortunately thanks to the Mexican revolution it never was finished )

The golden dome

[Ferrt 102]

 No me había dado cuenta que era el Palacio Legislativo de Porfirio Díaz, es una lástima que no se haya concluido. Hubo muchas grandes obras arquitectónicas durante el Porfiriato. Gracias por el aporte Jorge_carrillo.

 I hadn't realized it was the Legislative Palace of Porfirio Diaz, it's a shame that it wasn't finished. There were many great architectural works during the Porfiriato. Thanks Jorge_carrillo.

 

 

What an awesome work Heblem!

What an awesome work Heblem!

Creo que según el plano que traje Heblem cometió otro error además de los patios y me refiero a la forma del recinto que heblem ha interpretado como un enorme cuadrado con una media luna cuando lo que yo interpreto de los alzados es que se trata de una forma en cruz, la que bosquejo en la esquina encerrada en círculo y que tal arreglo debería ir en el resto de las esquinas, pero esa es mi apreciación.

I think that according to the prints I brought Heblem made a mistake, he intrpreted a square shape of the building in stead of a cross shape, I put a draw if what I am saying to be a bit more clear.

Hi,

 

I got redirected here by the ReadMe-text for HBS Tropical Flora Godmode Mod.

 

I have problem with it, I have installed it correctly, but I only get these boxes in my world instead of any tropical trees (meaning Simcity 4 Deluxe can't find it or something).

 

Please help!

[Bastet69008 1,102]

Hey SteffeeH, not sure if this is the best thread to ask your question but you seem new to the forum Have you download the dependencies?

 

[steffeeH 1]

Well it was either that or some random forum in Spanish, and I haven't spoke Spanish in a couple of years.

 

Actually I forgot to install it, thank you so much!

 

I'm pretty new to modding SC4 as you probably have noticed now haha, though I've played it for like a decade.

[Bastet69008 1,102]

No problem , that's something we often tend to forget in the excitement of using a new Mod sometimes , just don't forget the dependencies. Just remember that there are sometimes textures conflicts when you use this Mod on a steep terrain.

[Heblem 600]

Jorge_carrillo, gracia por correciones. Lo tomare en cuenta para editar antes de subirlo a STEX 

 

steffeeH: Good to know you have your problem alright

Bastet69008: Thank you for your help!

 

I just wanted to share something been hiding in my PC for over 3 years...

 

 

 

This project was in dust for over 3 years due I had rendering problems in my old computer, since last year I have pruchased a better, powerful computer which finally I can finish it.

 

Probably I'll release it soon at STEX... (or maybe not), depends on how it turns out...

Any suggestions?

[Ferrt 102]

Excelente!!! 

[APSMS 1,892]

Wow.

 

You really are back!

 

I think it looks great. Maybe using some newer lighting methods to add interior details to nightlights (light maps?), but these are really just icing on the cake. There are so few mega malls on the STEX. Make the lot TE inside (like the Pine Valley Mall lot by mattb325) to avoid the crime bug and save us a headache.

 

Thanks for sharing.

[T Wrecks 10,209]

Wow, this is massive! How is the lot configured, anyway? I'm wondering how to best accommodate such a huge and irregularly shaped structure. You may run into problems with the maximum prop count if you make a huge lot (in addition to the crime problem that APSMS mentioned), so it may make sense to use the mall as an overhanging prop on a small core lot and allow downloaders to dress up the surroundings with the SAM parking lot streets or any other custom parking lot system. The silhouette of the overhanging prop would be visible prior to plopping this behemoth so there won't be any unpleasant surprises when plopping. Growing such a monster is out of question anyway, IMO.
