Hello.

Long time nothing new here I did not write, because of lack of time. But came the right time to make a few projects that I did recently. I hope it is you like. If you have any suggestions, tips or criticism is highly encourage you to share them.

Already finished work on the trade fair hall, presented earlier. And in the meantime, two houses W2W.

This is the hall:

And this is this two houses w2w:

At the moment I am working on several projects, but due to lack of time, progress is not too great.

However, the project created more blocks of the 70s massively built in Poland. So far, almost complete, is the first form of the block, but I'm going to create even a few with different shapes. Of course, there is still some texture, and many details, but the total mass is slowly nearing completion.

What do you think of past projects?

I cordially greet all visitors and I want to add that already in the near future I will add some projects to the STEX.

[Ceafus 88 1,794]

Your projects look really good

[harishna 847]

Great buildings you are really good at this.

About the hall I am supposing the blue is going to change right? I still don't like the shingles very much...especially the ones in the tower, to me they still look too big and even a tad too saturated.

about the block not much to say rather than it is a very interesting project, I am sure Todd will love it, I will wait and see how this develops!

[supremec 77]

They are awesome your BATs

[vivydu29 60]

These BATs are really great.

Excellent Job.

Hello again.

Introduced several significant changes to previously submitted block. Short walls have been changed. I removed the balconies to the staircases, because in fact, such solutions do not meet in the blocks and "flattened" the roof, because previous suitable as a roof of higher buildings. I also added small details to the roof. Have yet to apply the texture window and I think that the first block will be considered terminated.

At the moment the block is as follows:

harishna:

As for the construction of the hall is a metal skylight "painted" blue, like window frames, so it presents a realistic color. The only exception is that in its present form in the skylight of the building was closed many years ago. However, as I found old photographs in which he was still visible, I decided to apply a color adapted to the current working status. Since this is also part of the Y-axis tilted, it is also brightened by the render more.Similarly, with elements of the tower. Their surface is not perpendicular to the ground and this causes the "overexposure" during rendering. I try to choose a little darker texture if I succeed, but this is what has been "removed" from a photograph of the hall. Better probably will not because I try to imitate what I now state. Nowadays, sometimes painting cries out to heaven for vengeance. Thanks as always for any guidance and valuable feedback. I hope you continue to follow my slow progress in creating.

All other also thank you for your comments and encourage you to follow up my thread and if you have any comments or other similar instructions, feel free to comment on.

Hello after a break.

Recently I have not had much time, but what little I could do. Several projects started, but because progress is slow, I decided not to publish far. Recently I noticed small rural churches hungry and decided something to do on this issue. Following is the latest project. It is not yet finished. Is to add a few minor details and a pair of textures, as well as night lighting. The plans are still several other churches and completion of projects already started. And now the church has already discussed below. This is a church located in Ustka, Poland.

By the way, I have a question about the program LotEditor. Where to set the appropriate parameters to add-ons built on sloping land without exposing the foundations? Give me some good advice or guidance on this issue. I am talking about the situation as presented on the occasion of the presentation of the block. To block built on a slope, and instead of portraying the foundations and building on flat ground to the block was built on site and off-kilter foundation instead appeared as if modeled part of the block below ground level.

Waiting for your feedback, suggestions and criticisms, as it probably will be something that needs improvement.

[supremec 77]

Fabulous, I especially love the church (but to much brown for me )

[Francis90b 748]

The church is coming along well so far.

[abstynent 117]

Hi after a long break. Despite the lack of time in the last days I was able to start or finish several earlier projects.

Frex_Ceafus:

Thanks a lot. I'm glad you liked my designs. I try as best I can reproduce the buildings made ​​by me.

harishna:

I am glad that recently presented proposals like. Not everything goes to 100%. Sometimes you have in certain situations to compromise. I try to be a possible derogation to be minimized.

supremec:

Thanks. We are constantly learning. So many things still ahead of me. All the time I try to pay attention to any suggestions and comments. As for the church to me was this brown really liked, and probably a longer stay.

Vividu29:

Thanks so much.

Francis90b:

Thanks. The church was almost completed. But the pics I got from a friend and it turned out that the left side is the side aisle, which I have to earn some extra money. So take a few days before I finish it.

As I wrote at the very beginning, a few more projects, more or less went to the front.

The resulting second version of color to the one presented earlier building.

The Church, as I wrote requires the addition of the aisle on the left. But in the meantime darkening were stained and fixed minor bugs.

Also among the blocks was the second model.

It was created also another house from Bydgoszcz. This time it is a house of Marshal Foch 4th Street.

He also built the adjacent building. In fact, it is building a similar facade, but the corner. But it turned out that I can not fit on a plot of 1x1, since the corner is a projecting, semi-circular tower, and because the sides are after 14 meters, I can not fit into the W2W.

Therefore, the uprising as a 2x2 corner modeled on the original. In the meantime, I created a 2x2 version of the enclosed annexe.

I hope that the new round of projects will fall to you to taste. Any suggestions and comments indicated. It will help me to eliminate errors and improve further in the development of new bats.

[abstynent 117]

Hi after a long break. Although no provision in the last few weeks, has not been idle. I created a few new projects.

Below I present to you a few new projects. Some of them are already completed, some still requires minor amendments. But I am curious to your opinion, because maybe something I have been unnoticed.

In the last set out the project has changed texture of the roof. At the moment the building is as follows.

Also, remodeling and re-texturing was my first project. When I started the night light is also learning. It looks like this.

There has also been like this corner building (now also with night light omni)

Since I still have two version of the color front, I'll do on the basis of a simple W2W buildings.

And the latest project you are currently working. This is already completed. This is the Invest Bank building, which stands on the street in Bydgoszcz Dworcowa 71st

There will also be a second version with a slightly different roof and another painting. At the moment it looks like this. But in the end will be mirrored.

I have also completed another block of concrete slabs (unfortunately I have no pics so far). Rise to yet another version of its shape and the "under construction" and then the whole will be exported.

What do you like my latest works? What do you think needs improvement? Waiting for opinions, suggestions and criticisms, if any is.

[Jasoncw 11,840]

That's a lot of BATs! Good luck.

For your lights, there is something called "near attenuation" and "far attenuation". They control how far the light goes. "Start" and "end" (the two numbers which control attenuation) control when and how fast the light fades.

If you had:

Near Attenuation

Start: 0 End: 40

Far Attenuation

Start: 80 End: 200

Then your light would start to fade into its full intensity from 0 meters to 40 meters. At 40 meters it would be its full intensity. At 80 meters the light would start to become less intense, until 200 meters when the light would completely go away.

In the lower right preview, there is a light above the door. It looks really good, but it is also lighting the wall next to it. If you make Far Attenuation about 2 meters then the light will be cut off before it can reach the wall, and only the area above the door will be lit.

[Ceafus 88 1,794]

You have a nice set of BATs there, they all look amazing.

[Simbourgeois 139]

Very nice BATs. They will be a nice addition to any European city

Keep up the great work!

Best regards,

Simbourgeois

Mayor of Belleville

[abstynent 117]

Welcome back after a very very long break.

Thank you for your comments. For a long time showed nothing here. This is because in September for now I had very little time. However, not been idle. Several new BAT's established. A few let out on SC4D. Here, too, I do upload.

However, to show that something has happened, here is some pics of my unpublished projects.

Small family houses

Still unfinished project renovated building in Bydgoszcz

There are also a further Pre-Fab Blocks. One L-shaped and one in the shape of the letter S. Sorry for no pics.

And at the end of the projects on which I work for a few days. A set of half-timbered buildings. So far I've done were about thirteen. I present them below.

This one below is the W2W

Feel happy for watching and commenting. In a few days I will show you a few more half-timbered houses

[abstynent 117]

Hello again.

Aaron Graham:

Thank you very much

Francis90b:

Delecto:

Thanks

Silur:

Thank you. I try to as I can

ee99:

skyscraper241:

Thank you. I am, I am, but for a long time I have little spare time to devote himself to the next projects. In any case, every now and then something new uprising.

sejr9999:

Thank you. Market Hall was my first such a complex project. Increases all the time my skills and try to make buildings more difficult. Patience, and of the subsequent my work ..

On the day of the game screen to present a set of timber-framed houses to see how they look in the game.

And the project they are working off and on for several days. Front entrance of the Municipal Theatre, defunct since 1945, it had burned a third time and was never rebuilt. Since that time, here is an empty square.

I hope you like it.

I look forward to any suggestions, comments and criticisms.

[zahrul3 471]

Nice BATs!

As for the rural German(?) houses, they're a nice addition to the STEX, since they are rare.

[SimCoug 5,973]

Your timber houses look great! I'm looking forward to using them.

[Ceafus 88 1,794]

O, wow, I live these wooden roofed houses, all of your BATs are stunning, great work!

[abstynent 117]

Hello everyone and sorry for such a long period of inactivity. Unfortunately, it was caused by the death of the hard drive in my computer, which led to the loss of all the data as well as all finite and infinite models, which have not yet been made available.

Among other things, have lost two small houses and yellow house was unfinished, and the building of the municipal theater.

zahrul, SimCoug, Frex_Ceafus:

Thanks a lot.

After a long break, and many attempts to recover the data, I decided to re-sit for gmax and try to create new models.

First, drawing on lessons from the first attempt, I decided to once again get on with building the municipal theater.

At the moment, progress is as so:

I hope you like it.

[Sgt Pepper 864]

Wonderful details and the textures on the walls look great so far. Can't wait to see more.
