Radical Maxis Re-Lots (Current: Beta-0.2)

[colco2121 55]

WHOA! Nice job, but i have been trying to stray away from Maxis content as much as I can. Looks good, though!

[Magneto 316]

Hey 1994 I was wondering, could it be possible to use your relots and block MAxis RCI stuff at the same time?

Cheers

colco2121 : No worries. After all, these re-lots are for Maxis buffs and people who want to keep plugins to a minimum, like me.

Magneto : Unfortunately it is not possible. Blocking Maxis RCI stuff will also block lots made for Maxis buildings.

Beta version coming!

Finished some CO$$ lots, wrote a readme, package it, zip it, now figuring out where to uploaded this mod. Hmm...

EDIT:

Here it is.

EDIT 2: Beginning today, I will halt this project for a while due to RL issues started getting ahead of my focus towards the project. I will still come here every now and then but will not post unless necessary.

EDIT 3: This mod requires bldgprop_vol1.dat and bldgprop_vol2.dat

I downloaded your beta and played a little with both, a new city (which I did not save) and a developed one.

If you want some feedback I can give it through a private message.

[This is my name 13]

Yes, yes, please . Feedback is always appreciated!

[This is my name 13]

Work in progress. R$ houses reloaded.

Attention! New lot designs for R$ houses! Thanks, Mithrik for the feedback!

8x10 and 6x8 houses

4x10 and 16x8 houses

These will be included in a new beta version.

I've tried your beta, I shall say I like what you did! I was positively surprised I didn't see any original Maxis buildings in my game so far besides industry but that is normal... Detailed feedback later...

Cheers

The lots are supposed to be American styled because I wanted to retain the Maxis feel. Furthermore, most of the Maxis buildings in SimCity 4 are in American style.

still, very nice. you only mess around with itens items or change the lot size as well?

I do both. In some cases, I just rearranged the overall look of the lot.

[Gn_leugim 853]

well, if you arrange the lot sizes too you should pay very attencion to the growth stages, so you have a good balance on the game

[This is my name 13]

Thanks for the advice! I didn't modify lot sizes for the majority of my modified lots. The ones I do change are for realism purposes, such as gas station lots and tenement lots. I think you should download the open beta to see which ones that have the lot sizes changed.

On an unrelated note, work on the Civic lots are in progress while I'm taking a break from designing so many growable lots.

[This is my name 13]

New beta is up!

Major changes include massive redesign of R$ lots and CV lots.

Download link in my signature and in the first page.

Try it to believe it.

EDIT: Also, I'm going to halt this project for a while due to university preparations. Don't worry, I still come here every now and then to answer questions. I will announce when the project will resume once I have free time.

Uploading back... the readme file is missing.

If anyone has a copy of my readme, you can send it to me via PM. I'll update it with the readme as soon as possible.

I've only just found this thread. I really like the look of this project. Is the Beta still available to D/L?

Yes.

My browser seems to be having trouble connecting to the image links.

What browser did you use? I use 'imagilive' to upload images. It should work.

EDIT : Work still halted... I will announce immediately when I resume work on this project.

[Superbacon 380]

I use Chrome.

[Alex_1210 189]

Cool project, il keep on eye on this
Also, use image shack, its better

[eugenio1982 6]

excelent project by the way !

[T Wrecks 10,209]

Yes, if nothing has been posted in nearly a year, chances of progress are slim. Please do not "bump" old/dead threads.

[This is my name 13]

Hello, eugenio1982! Thanks for the support! I'm sorry, the project is halted right now. However, you can download Beta-0.2 in Simtropolis Exchange. 

 

T Wrecks, thanks for the reminder.

Please note, as of now I am officially unable to continue this project due to to numerous personal and study-related issues to attend to.

 

InsyaAllah, if I felt the itch to continue this project, I will start posting something again here in the future.

 

In the meantime, please stop posting in this thread anymore until further notice.

[This is my name 13]

After 5 years of studying, I had decided that I will not continue this project. I am sorry, everyone.

I realised that what in fact that I will be doing, will I to finish it, is just making lots of ephemeral data that will be stored here in a hard disk in Simtropolis's data centre in Canada, that in the end, will disappear without a trace. So is material world, but the virtual world is a magnitude more volatile.

Again, this project has been discontinued. Very sorry, everyone.

However, I will keep what I have done in Simtropolis Exchange. Also, you can copy my lot designs without my permission.
