Kakado's BATs

[kakado_to_save 514]

I made a few changes

WARNING

promise me you will ignore the roof texture - it is horrible i know

[Francis90b 748]

Looking good so far, but that roof texture...

Seriously, looking good so far.

I'd move the front door a bit more inside the building, or change it's colour, so that it stands out more.

[kakado_to_save 514]

Well I am back BATting!

I don't know about the the textures on the top (with the dirt and stuff)

and i was wondering if someone can send me a link for nightlights or explain to me please?

[IL. 1,043]

Glad to see you back to making BATs

Your BAT is very nice.

Maybe you should make the roof lighter, it is too dark to be asphalt or a roof.

[paulvmontfort 617]

I actually like the dirt and the roof color looks fine as well. Maybe you can try to make it lighter to see how it works but it looks nice as it is

[IL. 1,043]

I agree with trying to make it lighter, and see wich one of both is the best.

[kakado_to_save 514]

?

[paulvmontfort 617]

It paid off to make the roof brighter, I like the 4th the best

[T Wrecks 10,210]

Yes, I'd go for No. 4 as well. It's looking good, btw!

[SimCoug 5,976]

That is a perfectly depressing looking apartment building. Will you be releasing it in a couple different color tones (depressing colors, of course) to add a little variety in game? Just a thought. I can see this work well as some slummy apartment complexes. Great job so far!

[darn42 1,268]

This looks very similar to a condo complex that my family rented a room at in florida. At least to one part of the building. I started modeling it for non-BAT purposes a while ago but I used stupid methods and it became impossible to work in the scene anymore (.5 fps) so I just quit working on it >.>

[kakado_to_save 514]

SimCourg:

dran: except the fact they weren't in a Socialist Prefab?

[darn42 1,268]

Yea pretty much They looked pretty nice actually, but they had the whole jutting out balcony, 3 stories I think, windows in betwee the balconys >.> Btw, good work on what you've got so far. It's looking nice.

[SimCoug 5,976]

Love it. Commies need color too.

[JayStimson 212]

Different (colors) textures and a prop family would be nice for building a R$ housing development neighborhood.

[kakado_to_save 514]

I think those 2 colors will do

i don't want a lot of lots to make and renderings

is the color fine?

[T Wrecks 10,210]

Well, as for renderings you are correct. But if you make the buildings a family, you'll have one and the same lot, and on this one lot all variations can appear.

[kakado_to_save 514]

Is everything ok?

[SimCoug 5,976]

Grrrrrreat!

[IL. 1,043]

Perfect

But you still need some roof junk.

[Sgt Pepper 864]

I dig it.

I like the grime on the roof and the trim at the top, but I feel like with how grimy that looks, it'd be in more places of the building. It makes it look like it has the roof of a slum, but the facade has a more cleaner look to it. Just my thoughts on it.

It's very nice.

[КaZZ 203]

cant wait when i can use them in my cities, when u gonna relase finalversion of them?

[Gn_leugim 858]

I say: yes!

[Toothless Stitch 2,901]

Ok =Yes

Perfect = The side walls and the roof are too empty

[JayStimson 212]

I agree with skyscraper241, the roof needs "junk" and the gable sides need something. Windows and a ventilation duct ?

The wall texture is also rather plain and flat. Try finding a cinder-block type texture if they're supposed to be really cheap housing.

Otherwise some type of brick.

These are a really nice design and size, it would be a shame to not put the effort into the textures that they deserve.

Kakado_to_save - I always loved your BATs! Have you considered starting an israeli cj instead of kamtchatka r.i.p.?

Have a great day!

[kakado_to_save 514]

I didn't update anything really because i re-modeled some problematic parts of the BAT and re-placing some walls

so ... hmm .

I already centered the building and i need to know if there are any problems before I render?

[darn42 1,268]

Did you add roofjunk yet? That was the main thing that I saw that needed to be added. Pretty much the only thing actually.

[kakado_to_save 514]

I found an historic video with that building in it

0:33 and the whole prefab area 4:51

Btw - please mute -.-'

(i live right next to those building but over the years people added rooms and destroyed the original shape)

I threw some crap over the building hoping it will work ..
