hkabat-forum-threads Massively Gigantic Japanese BAT Gallery

[Odainsaker 2,137]

This thread has been moved from the BAT - Open Discussion to here, to help bring together these two things (The HKABAT Team and The Japanese BAT Threads) that are of a similar interest.

Keep in mind though, that the BATs in this thread are not made by HKABAT Team members.  Think of it more as the HKABAT Team hosting these threads.

While hunting for more custom BATs, I came across this Japanese SimCity 4 BAT website: Sim City Force http://homepage2.nifty.com/kamurai/simcity/index.htm The website seems to be a hugely popular BAT gallery and forums with hundreds upon hundreds of cool images. The pictures of some of the custom projects are jaw-dropping: beautiful temples and pagodas, futuristic archologies, and conspicuously popular railguns and battle mechs. Unfortunately, the language barrier may present a problem for many of us not fluent with Japanese, but some carefully random clicking and guessing on the menu and links will get us around. However, as I cannot read the language, I cannot seem to determine the home source of the images in order to try to download the buildings. It may just be a vast gallery of personal projects, or maybe a compilation of available downloads from another site. The few that offer building/lot downloads sometime use the ZIP format, while others may be in the Japanese LZH compression format (the shareware PowerArchiver 2003 will open LZH archives). The English language version of SimCity may not even support Japanese lots, but it is worth a try. The Holy Grail shines before me onscreen, but I cannot find any download links! Aaaarrrggghhhh!

I like that tollbooth, with the widened plaza.  I think that's something major missing in SC4 (toll plazas are generally always wider than the highway they're on), plus I like the building style of that one.

On the left hand side of the front page are a list of connections.  Near the bottom of the list is one that connects you to a list of pages in the center of the screen, click on each one to see pictures of the lots.  Then click on the lot you want, and it will have its own page.  You will see downloadable files above the picture of the lot.  I hope this helps, it took me an hour to find this stuff.

[Alkaola 18]

ok people its quite simple just click some links on the main page of the site than you will find much BAT stuff

 

sorry i'm really dizzy now , we should discover this before , those guys have everything

[+Guest]

Except that yo can't download like anything.

[vidioman 21]

So, link? Link? Link? Link? Link? Link?Link? Link? Link? Link? Link? Link? Link? Link? Link? Link? Link? Link?

 

I can keep asking. Ask the Admin, or chat mods. I'm pretty annoying sometimes. They look pretty cool, but my limited knowledge of Japanese is stopping me..

 

-my crazy aunt speaks Japanese. She also live in the condo on the top floor of the tallest building I have ever seen. Small world, eh?!

ok folks, try this one out too. its a link that i found on the other site. http://www.tcn.ne.jp/~tatsuya21/koubou/down_j.htm
on the left are the res/com/ind/?? areas. choose the colour you want which corresponds to the files types. then....hover your mouse over each file on the list and a pic will come up. download the .lzh file as someone mentioned above. not sure which program to use, i think it was mentioned above. i hope this helps and i hope someone can add to this so we can solve this great new site! good luck!

I HAVE A LINK: Japanese Exchange

Click on the links in the box in the middle of the page. The first links are lots and the last few is mostly BAT. I don't know what the big deal is with the site. In less I'm missing something, these BATs and lots aren't that great.
