Building Requests Filled

Welcome to the Building Requests Filled sticky. This is a special, low-use thread that has one purpose: To log what requested buildings BAT users have started on, and when they have been completed.
 
REQUESTERS: DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT POST REQUESTS IN THIS THREAD. This is a log for building projects taken on by BAT users, and to log when they are complete, not for requests. If I find any requests in here, I will delete them. If they are for buildings that have been requested before, I'll simply delete the request. If they are requests for new buildings, I'll PM the author with the contents of the post, and ask that they repost in the correct thread. Check this forum for BUILDING REQUEST FILLED: <building name> threads to track the progress and make comments on requested buildings that BAT users are working on.
 
BAT USERS: If you have the time, please scan the Official BAT Request thread periodically, and look through the Building Request Poll threads that I will be posting every so often (please don't post them yourself, I'll post and sticky them periodically myself). If you START working on a requested building, please post here, and name the building, guess and specify how long you think it will take to complete, and if you wish, post progress reports here. Also, start a BUILDING REQUEST FILLED: <building name> thread in this forum, and log your progress there. When you complete the building, post here and note the name of the building, and if possible, post a link to the building in the BEX.
 
This thread is intended to be low use, and generally just a log for reference. Before you post a request, check here to see if someone has started or even completed the building your requesting. DO NOT POST REQUESTS HERE. There is no gurantees that all requested buildings will be made. The most frequently requested buildings are the most likely, so if you really like a building, go post a request for it in the official request thread, or find one of the request polls, and vote for the next one you want made.
 
Happy BATTing, everyone! <ahttps://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/images/smilies/10.gif>

    Filling request #1:  The Ranier Tower
    Estimated Completion Date:  Early to Mid March
     
    Filling request #2:  777 Tower
    Estimated Completion Date:  Late march to Early April
     
    Progress will be posted (tonight, I hope) in the BUILDING REQUESTS FILLED: 777 and Ranier Towers thread.
     
    I wouldn't normally be working on more than one project at a time.  However, I can only get the polygon count so high (around 40k or so) here at work before it becomes impossible to work with.  Then I am limited to my free time at home to complete the model.

    The Theme Building at Los Angeles Int'l Airport

    I'm going to give Late May as a completion date as I don't have a lot of free time and I'm still trying to master gmax.

    Progress (as well as requests for help) will be posted in the Building Log: Los Angeles Int'l Airport Theme Building thread

    EDIT:  The Theme Building has been put on hold for the time as my computer is having problems with gmax and I am working 6 days a week so there is no time to work on it or diagnose what is wrong.

    OK folks.

    Ol' GrampaAl has a request for you outstanding BAT creators.

    I would like to see a collection of Log Homes. Large, small and in between.

    These homes should have doors, windows, and lighting.

    However, they should not include decks, chimneys, porches or railings. Those items should be separate props.

    We could use a collection of props to go along with these as well.

    Chimneys, stove pipes, decks, railings, and other things you might see either attached to or part of a log home or surrounding it on a lot.

    The more items we have the more interesting lots we can create.

    I especially would like to see a field stone chimney made of large and interesting field stones.

    Anyone for stained glass panels for the Front door? If you make one, could it be a separate prop that could be just fitted on the door rather than part of the door it self. Rather like those store fronts.

    Thanks, I will have to watch the BAT page now to see how this request is shaping up.

    Construction on the Frost Bank Tower in Austin, Texas has begun by me. If anyone was going to request this building, or take on the project by yourself, hold your thoughts. It has already been started, and as soon as it is finished this beautiful building will be available for the entire Simtropolis community.
