I was just about to ask what it was but realized you had already answers "It's a covered public area."   - Its is gorgeous!!!!!!!!!  Do these exist in RL?  

 

17 eh?  Wow, you are even more awesome to create such excellent work.  I took a psychology class in college but it was my worst grade - C Minus - LOL.  I never understood it.  Kudos to you for studying it.

    Here's an update regarding a smaller dwelling:

     

     8afcd250760d41b89f235038cb7cba6281e0ec99

     

    This is a two-storey housing complex comprising of two subunits; a lower and upper level. The second floor must still be BATed.

     

    8afcd25076458371072af2b1a46fb89f6530006c

     

    The open spot seen to the right of the latter picture will include a, entrance way, common area and possibly driveways/underground access. Enjoy!

    I love your projects. Can you do small favor for me? I would like you to make a props that replace maxis car clusters with future cars. You can make it override the original file. It would be good to get rid of the maxis cars props. As you are a very skilled modeler it would be easy for you to do this.

    It will be an excellent idea :) . But, I'm not sure if we need to completely delete the Maxis stuff, I'm nostalgic :P . If you, dear Bipin you can create news cars clusters for our parkings area, its will be awesome with beautiful North American cars :O:);) some chevy, Dodge RAM, Ford, JEEP, GMC etc etc... lol . It's my dream to see those magnificent cars in the game one day ... sorry :D

    Heh, yeah... :P To be honest though, it's a great idea (albeit it not a small one). I will release one or two of these futuristic buildings first, then move on to vehicles. Everyone, let me know what vehicles you'd like to see. They'll all be futuristic, but to what extent? Remember, I want them to be believable and complimentary of the aesthetics entailed in my most recent structures.

    I'm thinking of streamlined very aerodynamic cars. They look more like some machines we will have in the near future than the wildly colored retro futuristic 60s cars. I think we need to replace maxis cars clusters because they were built in the petroleum age when cars burn gasoline and no longer fit for bright green future.

    IF it's possible for you, can you please have a look at those cars as well? 0:) 0:)

    I'd like to get those future cars to entirely replace maxis carb clusters. It would be a great contribution to the New Horizons community and Mr.Bipin will go down in sc4 history with 2ch.net.simplayer and timcravey. Not only will it save me and other NH members from spending countless hours relotting parking lots, replacing maxis cars with simmars rovers, but it also replaces the maxis cars in .dat files where relotting is not an option. Overall it is a potentially great mod.

    Here's a little update...

     

    8afcd25076744aafd143b7fc9e7acf77704a79fc

     

    ...Enjoy! :D

     

     

    My oh my, sorry for the late post but I just had to drop in and say that looks stunning! The "coldness" of the glass on top and the "warmth" of the levels below work really well together. Keep it up! Plus, the spokes (like the ones for bicycle wheels and such) are an interesting touch to the overall structure. Is this structure almost complete? Can't wait for the final render. =P

     

    Edit: Ah, and yes, forgot to mention about your potential/prospective BATs with future cars. If you're comfortable and only if you want, I would love to collaborate on that project with you.

    If you're able to do automata, then that'd be especially helpful. Perhaps I could make the higher-poly models for props, while you optimize them for use as automata. Of course, it would also be helpful if you modeled some for props and I did some for props as well. Let me know what you have in mind!

    Hmm, I've been wanting to do some Z6 renders for awhile now and automata is a perfect place to start. Now, I may not be the best at doing detailed figures/dummies catered to the cars here but I'll definitely work with what I got and hopefully improve quickly while I help you with this project. I can definitely also go ahead and pump out some framework/contour of the future cars that we will be working on as a collaboration and so can you (basically an exchange of ideas back and forth for a better product, etc.) And, I am completely fine with you taking over a model if need be for those higher-poly detailing of cars as you have more experience in 3d modeling and BATing--especially, with those tricky/intricate curves and angles that car modeling requires for that professional/grounded look and I am willing to work on them as well to be of support and benefit. Now, I do have a few car models that I have done couple years back just for fun. I will go and dig some up so that I can review/critique it and perhaps rework it from the ground up and base some contours on those past ideas that I have not finished yet and send you some. Coming up with ideas and proof-of-concepts is not a problem for me. So, let me know if you're still wanting me as part of the team and if not that's still understandable as I have some ways to go to reach the levels of our BATing experts here. It is strictly up to you as it should be. I don't want to be a burden and be detrimental to this project as we go forth. So, perhaps as a prescreening process I'll send in some renders for yah and you be the judge. In or not it's completely up to you, I just want to be proactive in the community so anything works for me that is both beneficial to the community and BATers here. Thanks as always, Bipin and have a good one.

    Thanks for the concise response Finnbhennach! Remember, you aren't working for some firm and I'm not some megalomaniac of a boss; it's just me, Bipin. ;) Make all the models you want, I am sure I will incorporate them into the finished product one way or another. You are anything but a burden to me. I'm glad to have you on board for this! I'd also like to say thanks to KonstantinII for the brilliant idea.

    Just few questions. Can I make a model in sketch up and import it to 3ds max? Can I open models made with earlier versions of sketch up in the new version sketch up program? Where can I get non pirated new version?

    That'll work. You can always download the latest version for free from Google.

    After seeing some of the content brought forth recently in the "Didn't make it to the STEX" thread, I've been inspired to rekindle my industrial props project; the one regarding construction machinery, water towers, generic facilities and the like...

     

    8afcd2507611211d3b1b8002d8175380a20067be

     

    Cooling towers are a long overdue addition to the game when it comes to custom content, for they are so versatile. Let alone, ones which have realistic grime textures. I had studied the patterns in which residue deposits on hyperboloid structures of this size when creating these BATs.

     

    8afcd25076748a9102721c218eeabb2ce48fa88a

     

    I began working on these about twenty minutes ago; this is my progress thus far.

     

    8afcd2507686a440b13109c8ae8727936e8b7c23

     

    It is also present in a HD version. Frankly, I prefer the HD version as I find the graininess is negligible when it comes to zoom five.

     

    8afcd2507634cccc0944de9ed2559221b93b8f93

     

    Enjoy!
