    I think all of the roof textures should really go, not only the tile horrendously, but also colors look very fake, particularly grass - it's totally nuclear!

    Also tables look a bit over-sized. I'd say it really isn't a problem if they are small and hard to make out, it's much worse when the are so ginormous (at least 2x the real size).

    Also the shape of balconies is significantly wrong! And given how crucial part of the building these ever repeating balconies are it troughs the whole thing off.

    But I give you it's tricky and tacky building to re-construct and to make look good in game!

    Also since most of the tower is just mindless repetition the importance of roof and the base only grows! So You better take another look at the relative proportions (also height) of various elements of the roof top terrace.

    Good Luck!

    Thats a huge building, and architecturally it seems to be a mix of several styles, which I'm not sure I like. The modelling and texturing looks good to me, but I don't have any reference image to base that off.

    noise used for glass and reflection don't look realistic. Have you applied the noise to the glass material or to the ground plane?

    It looks like that because your noise is crossing from one glass pane to the next. You should learn how to use multi/sub maps. Take a look at Jason's tutorial on glass materials.

    On your bats I would try and find some actual textures rather than just colors (at least that's what it looks like) They could be much better if it wasn't for the bland and repetitive textures. And I think this has been said before, but don't rush things. Please. It will come out much better then if you just try to release it as soon as possible. I hope you heed my advice.

    I like the roof texture, it suits the building well. However, I feel like it should be worked on a bit. It looks like somebody took their fingers and smeared it across the image; as strange as this sounds, I would find some rhyme/reason to the water stains on the roof. I hope that doesn't make me sound strange. :P But I DO hope you get what I'm saying. ;)

    Sorry but the roof texture doesn't look convincing and now is worse as the access roof and the main roof have the same texture so it looks completely unnatural that the stains continue form one roof to the other. I would check how people like Madhatter, Simhottoddy, Nofunk and others work their roofs so you get an idea.

    As usual the model is good I just hope you planning to change most of the textures (if not all). As I am assuming you will change them I will wait to make any comment until you have applied "final" textures to it.

    Where to start? This is my first commenting on this thread. Have been quite critical of the uploader rushing out his/her work to the Stex and keep updating version 1 and 2 of his/her clearly non-polished work. At the time of my post, the above Standard Chartered building was pulled away from the STEX (that awfully coloured Standard Chartered signage!!). Until now, did not know the Thai Bat team has a bat thread, so while I am pleased that you do, I think you need to listen to advice. I like what you did with Wattana Heights despite the flaws (your bats always have flaws, this time your base/indoor parking entrances does not connect with the lot well), because you make some interesting residential bats and at least I appreciate residential bats. However your Lebua State Tower (which Simfox has made some blunt comments) is an ambitious project but utterly not worthy downloading.

    You should find a niche for yourself even if it only means doing projects of lesser difficulty. So far you have proven to be one of the most inconsistent yet frequent uploader on the STEX, and it seems like you are stuck at an intermediate level. I am probably not the fairest person to give comments like this as I am not a STEX contributor, but I am just giving advice from a user's perspective, as you have released quite a number of files so far on the STEX, and none of them are really excellent, which is a shame because you don't try to perfect your work. There seems to be always some flaws standing out so badly. For whatever reason you are failing, here is hoping you will try to improve and for once give us some stunning work, even if it meant to be a tiny 1x1 lot.

    As Simfox say, good luck!

    I agree with everything Kendiecasttsoi has said above. My great hope is that the OP will listen to all the advice given in this thread...

    I will never understand these obsession of some forumers to criticize every single thing about the BATs of On0122222. If you don't like them, don't download them. If you want things your way do your own BATs, your own models. I think you will survive and the world will not come to an end if you don't have a building by On0122222222222222. I stop batting because of this obsession with perfection and reality. Even playing simcity stops being fun for me because I thought perfection of reality in a SIM game was the way to go. Now that change, and I play the way I want, with some BAT that not fullfill the level of excellence some forumers demmands, and I have fun, even using models released in 2004/2005.

    These are his creations, if you don't like his job, don't download them.

    Sorry for my english, as On012222 said too, english is not my native language and I do what I can to try to express my toughts.

    On0122222, I like your models, I have all of them.
