You will need to track down every remnant of the program (registry entries, application data, plus the program files themselves), remove them, and then re-install (sometimes the "uninstall" function is sufficient if it is still operable). Non-destructive recoveries sever the guts of the program from the proverbial "brain" executing the initiations, which renders the program useless. Replacing the guts and the connections (re-install) usually is easier then trying to restore the original associations, at least from my experience.

If you still have something icky crawling around on your HD, you should try Malwarebytes if you don't have it already. Glad you still have your data though, that is the important stuff

Yep... Did ALL of that! 

And I already had the malwarebytes thing...

And Tadaa!!

The shopping mall... unsure wether to change this facade though.

More progress on the construction tower... Just working a bit more on the base.

After finding some more old files... I found these condos. I gotta say I kinda love them

 SimHoTToDDy Saves the Day!!!  Thanks Sim!

I've been trying to upload the Richardson... I fail at it! I'll find a way.

[Aaron Graham 4,417]

Let me roll over and die, those models you have are perfect.

[ThomasSimpson 466]

Have you uploaded any of these in this thread? I'd love to download some.

[SimHoTToDDy 2,938]

My pleasure, I only know from experience

Would like to see you finish one of these off some time. The condos in particular are nice (still need a ground floor and roof, each floor looks like it was arrayed up) perhaps a SC4 render of those?

By the may, my name is Todd (everyone and their mother has a user name starting with "sim" on this site lol).

*oooooooooooohhh*

[art128 4,618]

Those BATs are sweeeet !

[kellydale2003 2,276]

@aaron - Thanks! 

@thomas - I only have one upload... Search "kellydale2003" on Stex!

 

@Tod - Yep, I just had those floors arrayed, no base nor top piece.... I wanna work on these! 

Just cleaning files and fixing up files and paths... I remember what part I was stuck on before I uploaded the Richardson. I'm trying to make it a ploppable... but fail at it! haha, so idk... just might upload it as a Landmark Only + Growables.

But I wanna finish construction tower... I'm just as anxious as everyone to get these BATs on Stex!

Here's more progress... I'm just on a quick internet connection: so these are a few days old... not the most recent render (i'm too lazy to render atm)

This is just a quick photoshop into the real-life thing. Z4!

But yeah, I'll be back with some renders probably this Saturday (may 1st) ... and hopefully an upload.

Thanks everyone! 

[TekindusT 3,809]

Now the building looks awesome, and the lot looks really promising, I'll be there to download it when it's released...

[allez l'om 1]

All buildings looks breathtaking. I love the condos. It's something really needed into the game.

[iuri99 48]

Very nice Skyscraper.

I prefer 90 degree Crane

[Liberater444 11]

can you PLEASE release the underconstruction tower???? that is sooo awesome...

Keep up the great work. Those reflective windows are perfectly textured

[kellydale2003 2,276]

Thanks guys! 

Here's a little teaser...Just adding some detail to the top than I'm off to do the nite-liting! 

And here's a "quick" project I started... I was so inspired by amthaaks vertical extensioned hotel that I decided to try it myself

PHASE ONE: Create old building over orange shaped box.

PHASE TWO: Higly detail box, and only create two facades.

PHASE THREE: Create Skyscraper Box! And complete bottom facade.

Phase four and five are still to come! The back of the building will be glass, hopefully I blend this together good. Might change the glass colour... And the skyscraper is just a box! I didnt add any detail yet... It might not look good yet, but who knows! This is my first time doing this!

And I moved to the country side in a beach house... so i dont have internet YET! Its a big move considering living in a highrise condo to a flat big beach house! haha, but yeah, hopefully i can find internet access and keep ya'll update frequently!

[WhiteKnight 0]

Hi, thats a really cool concept to have the glass tower on top of the old building. Will you ever upload any of these? It seems you have plenty of projects ready for upload.

[Chris M 406]

PLEASE finish your older projects before moving on to new ones! I love what I see, but it's getting frustrating that we're not seeing releases while new projects are coming out of the woodwork. :-)

[harishna 847]

I agree with DragonAnime, can't wait to get that tower under construction it looks sooo nice I love the underground floors!!!

[Za 164]

Nice: I like this concept, actually

[JLAAPRTM 12]

That is excellent!

[kellydale2003 2,276]

haha, I'm just having some difficulty linking the textures back together on my old projects! Kind of boring and repetitive when you keep doing it over and over... but I'm almost finished a lot of them... Just need to get passed my weakness: "Lighting! "... I hate nite-lighting... thats something i dont look forward too. But another update will be coming soon. I'm currently travelling and on the go, heading to calgary from Kenora here in Canada. Trying to update as much as possible!

NOT TO MENTION THAT "SECRET" PROJECT THAT I SHOWED ON HALLOWEEN! 

[SimHoTToDDy 2,938]

I really want the base of that tower. Gorgeous style and details that are sorely lacking in the game. I'm the kind of person who would want the building without the hideous modern glass box stuck on top of it, but that's just me. That and I think we have enough towers and not enough beautiful early 20th century mid rises.

[Bastet69008 1,102]

Very sexy ! I love the concept. Lot of details on that building I really like it! It might be interesting to have two versions, the whole model and the other version with separate models, like SimHoTToDDy we lack early 20th century mid rises (well we lack mid rises in general)

[kellydale2003 2,276]

Alrighty Todd! I'll take that into consideration, I think I was getting ahead of myself when I said "quick" haha. I'm just on vacation and I thought I would be at the computer 24/7. But I guess not

I think it might look better just as the building itself, maybe some other time I'll blend them together. The facade of the glass tower is going to take longer than I thought!

So here's a minor update, just adding more detail, and going to make the rest of the walls boring... it's supposed to be "quick"

Also, I think I got lost and messed up the scale of the building! ... Tell me your thoughts on the scale! 

That's it for now

[Timmystwin 201]

possibly a bit smaller, but still good.

[T Wrecks 10,209]

Yeah, I think it should be about as tall as nofunk's building to the left - or at least quite a bit closer to it. 

[vailo 13]

I agree with T Wrecks; you should scale it down a smidge, a little closer to the building on the left.

Your building reminds me of the Hearst Tower in New York...

[kellydale2003 2,276]

Here's a quick update ppl! Kkinda busy these days

^^^Started on the Trump Tower in NYC. I started it awhile ago.

^^^Working on the AZA condos... Just need to fix the textures and the nite-lighting. Will make the facade colours different.

^^^Decided to give this building a little different look.... Can anyone tell which one this is? It was brown and had blue glass. (It's in earlier pages of this thread  .

^^^Finished an oldie skyscraper... I'll upload it when I finish the lighting.

^^^ Finito! 

^^^Same tower as previous tower... just dif color.

^^^I might as well reveal why I'm taking so long on everything else. This photo is an older photo, I'm already done the facade. Just no time to render it atm.

An old mall I'm fixing up.

I'll do my best to fix these projects quick but with quality! Just need some help on nite-lighting and what not. If someone could teach me how to use tru-nite efficiently it'll be awesome! 

Thanks, KE.

[Sgt Pepper 864]

Holy Architecture Bat Man! Kellydale is back! I remember that Trump Tower you were wokring on. Didn't you email the old model to me for like a scale test before(back when my account was simcity4fan12)? But so far everything is great.

[Wrightguy0 40]

goodness gracious! WOWIE!

please hurry! *engaging Maximum Want*

[Gn_leugim 853]

oh god, so many works, and all astonishing!

[T Wrecks 10,209]

Wow! Concerning that Hong Kong tower you call "finito", however, I'd like to throw in my 2 cents: Modeling-wise it's a beauty, no doubt about that. I love it, and I love all the detail. The colour scheme you picked is very interesting and appropriate, too.

 I'm just wondering about the overall colour hue on that thing. I think it's shifted too far towards blueish/greenish to really blend in. Look at the white parts near the roof - they are almost blue, and it's a rather cool blue as well. In contrast, look at that modern building at the left edge of your screenshot (the one that's only half on the picture). You'll see that it has a certain warm, peachy tint to it. Only the shadows are blueish. I think it would be worth a shot to try and shift the colour hue more towards this peachy colour.

EDIT: Lowering the saturation on that ground flora might also be worth trying.

[SimFox 802]

I concur with TWrecks on both counts - color scheme and particularly the trees - these are way way to oversaturated and chemical green. Real flora isn't really green, but more of the shade of the yellow- It is important to remember when making trees.
