Imagination or not, this looks fine to me! It's for a game anyway, not for a real-life building recreation contest, so I don't really care about whether a building is 100% true to life or not, as long as it will look and work fine in game, period.

Btw, what kind of structure is this? Office? Residential? It might look good as R$$...

bixel:

Extremely good work! You should work in an architect's office.

For the case, you want to make also the pool. That is on the roof of the two floors basis behind the tower.

Looking very good!!!... it's becoming nicer and nicer.

[Fantail 0]

I agree, it is really coming along, nice work.

[HONG KONG 74]

This is one of the largest projects ever made here, and that, by a single person!

I look forward to the next update!

[Lord_Bertrum 3]

Looking very good indeed

[paulvmontfort 617]

sorry there aren't any new updates, but i didn't had access to the internet from saturday morning untill now, and all the pics are on the internet

[T Wrecks 10,210]

Don't worry, the old pictures are beautiful enough to look at them for more than one time...

Yeah, i agree, but i just think those windows are so nice.

[the Monkeys Uncle 35]

Incredible work so far!

[HONG KONG 74]

Thanks for the update!  You makes a piece of HK visible in our game

A question:  If you model an upward gradient, a difference in height develops on the back.

                  How fit your model then onto a LOT?

OMG, that complex is so real and beautiful. Thank you so much for the update.

[Scaley McSlither 1,714]

Sweet mother of God!! That is one unbelievably beautiful complex!

[bixel 1,228]

Pool is done!

[Fantail 0]

wow, that pool looks so real.

[HONG KONG 74]

Again time for large praise for you both.      Great work !!

[Hordijk 18]

some outstanding progress!!!!...

[paulvmontfort 617]

bixel, could you send me those trees? The ones I already have aren't dense enough, they just don't look right on the pacific place complex.

[T Wrecks 10,210]

Sorry to interrupt your incredible work, but I have very, very bad news...

The Harbourside has a night light problem at Zoom 4, from all perspectives. The other zooms are fine, however.

[bixel 1,228]

Whoops! I forgot about that, yeah I knew about it all along and even rendered it 3 times to see if it would go away but it wont. I think it has something to do with me using 3DS Max 5, same thing happens with the Manhattan Heights...speaking of which I got some sneak previews for ye!!

Oh and heres an updated Props scene in max, with all the stuff I used for the Manhattan Heights, textures not included if you have a problem using greenery leaves textures with alpha channel I can show you how to do it.

[bixel 1,228]

Props file here, useable only in Max5 and up.
