nybt-forum-threads Aaron Graham's NYBT Residential Thread

[Aaron Graham 4,417]

Sgt Pepper- Yep your right, it's up to me to bat it, but I do take so sort of requests, but I have to study it to see if I can make the bat. 915 West End Avenue is sort of a Francis90b request, but Francis90b and I have some sort of deal with the release of the Bromley. Maybe Vlasky may have a request done for him.

Parisian & Francis90b- Francis90b is right, the Ansonia is on a diagonal lot with will make it hard to back, yet it's already hard to bat it with all the details.

gutterclub- Yep, your right it looks like this is the new bat request thread.

30 E. 81st Street

I like the fact that you are varying the ground floor shops with the different color versions of this. Even though they're small, that detail is appreciated by me.

[Darknono35 3,138]

Lovely, I can't wait to see this one in my game .

I'm agree with madhatter106 about the variety of color, that give seems to be different building, very well done

[MTT9 187]

This are just great Aaron! Can't wait to use them

[gutterclub 2,729]

These are one of my favourites of yours and look extremely useful...could do with more generic corner buildings for sure! That said, and its personal preference, but i'm never taken with the pink bricks..would prefer them to be more terracotta...however, NYC doesn't really have terracotta brick like places in the UK does?

Minor personal point..otherwise I LOVE THEM

[Aaron Graham 4,417]

Girafe- Thank you, tree hero!!!

Francis90b-

madhatter106- Thank you!!

Darknono35- Thank you!!!

MTT9- Thank you, I know you can't wait.

gutterclub- Thank you, I will try to change the pink version, i have to think of another color, but this are some pink building in New York City.

201 E. 19 Street

Another update, still have some more things to work on before moving to the variations stage. To let you guys know it's getting time to make a new building, the ones I'm working on is half way finished. I may have to make two more to keep the production going.

[Susaji 523]

Nice!

[Darknono35 3,138]

WOOOW it's will be one of your biggest masterpiece. I love it

[Parisian 556]

That"s awsome Aaron. Marvellous work. Can't wait to have it ready to download. By my side my bating fever is coming back, i need download the BAT, lot editor and I will be ableto come back soon and ready to integrate the team again with a better work hope so.

[MTT9 187]

Wow! Looks amazing

[Sgt Pepper 864]

I love it, distinctive shape and setbacks.

[mattb325 28,891]

Love this newest one, Aaron...it really is a great variation on the ziggurat style.

Hopefully the Chase Manhattan ATM on the ground floor doesn't charge fees to withdraw §§§

[madhatter106 3,931]

Hopefully the Chase Manhattan ATM on the ground floor doesn't charge fees to withdraw §§§

It's a monster megabank, of course it will charge fees. They just charged me 23.00 for the privilege of reprinting checks for me, incorrectly for that matter...

Re: the BAT - I like the details of the rolling doors on the east side. I always like when I catch the side or back of a BAT and I see those little life-like "real" details. The roof texture looks really really dark - perhaps too dark? I don't know, it just seems too dark. I would suggest upping the brightness on it just a hair, but that's me. Also curious as to what the little patios on the north side will look like - is there an entrance to them, or are there just windows? I can't tell, the hedges are obscuring what looks like the door access to them...

[AlexandrosB13 184]

Wow these look fantastic! Not sure if i am bad batter and can't find anything to suggest or these are close to perfection (if not perfect yet)

[Ion_Cannon 677]

Good work as always Aaron, keep it up

[Francis90b 748]

30 E 81st street.

Variations are looking really nice!

However, i'd say that the "orange" one might need some slight desaturation.

I don't mind pink, but i think that the "pink" you're using is slightly too light and saturated.

201 E 19th street.

It's looking very nice, but the real thing seems leaning a lot more towards red than what you have.

I'd also say that mortar needs to be toned down slightly.

Thinking about colour variations, i'd guess that this one would do quite good in white with black window frames.

In order to do variations, i'd assume you'd do some shop variations as well.

Perhaps you might make two versions of it with the "current" shopfront (i.e. chase bank) and two others according to the architectural drawing you've seen and posted there.

[libellibicus 396]

Very, very, very, very nice BAT.

[Aaron Graham 4,417]

Hazani Pratama- Thank you!!!!

Darknono35- Thank you, and your right, this will be another one of my biggest bats but it's not my largest.

Parisian- Thank you, can't wait to see you bat again.

MTT9- Thank you!!!!

Sgt Pepper- Thank you team leader.

mattb325 & madhatter106- Thank you, Madhatter106 is right knowing to Chase they do charge fees, it's a monster bank.

AlexandrosB13- Your not a bad batter, it's just not easy to find flaws on great batters.

Ion_Cannon- Thank you!!!!

Francis90b- Thank you, I hope you like the fix up, I have desaturated the pink and the orange a bit.

libellibicus- Thank you!!!

30 E. 81st Street

I have desaturated the bricks, I hope they looks good. I think I am finished on this building, if so there will be two more building that is finished, the NYBT Hattan House and 30 E. 81st Street.

I have already did the night lights, I just need to render them for the public.

[Darknono35 3,138]

Wooow yeah ! Another BAT from you in my cities. Great my friend !!

[gutterclub 2,729]

Quite stunning, bricks look perfect

[Aaron Graham 4,417]

LOL!!! Darknono35 This is the same building from before.

Thank you gutterclub.

[gutterclub 2,729]

Maybe it's my work monitor, they look less pink

Either way, my comment still stands

[Aaron Graham 4,417]

Please Remove this post Moderaters.

[Francis90b 748]

The yellow fix finds me fine with it - but i'd still darken the pink a little, though (i'm speaking of subtle change there, not to change the colour).

"Bricks" look perhaps a bit too big - what about resizing them a little bit, let's say 75-80% of what they are now?

EDIT: I said "stretched" the first time - but i have to correct myself, because at a second glance the ratios of the bricks might actually be used somewhere - however, if they are too big this might be somewhat look "strange".

[Darknono35 3,138]

Yep I've recognized your 30 E. 81st Street. But it's will be ready soon, it's what I've wanted to say

[Aaron Graham 4,417]

Francis90b- I will work on the texture. Your not the only one that think the brick texture is stretched, I thought it would just pass.

Darknono35- Okay mate.

Does the bricks looks better, before I change the uvw maps on the other models Francis90b?

365 West End Avenue

Here's a new bat, remember is not a promise, until it in texture stage. Yes, this building will have a water tower.

Here's the google map link.

[Darknono35 3,138]

That seem better to me for the brick textures.

And one new bldg you're an BAT Factory

[gutterclub 2,729]

'he's a machiiiine'

I'd still love to see a Max version of the Transportation building, and the Timpson Row as well..
