Oliver

I think that the Aurora Plaza had several versions, maybe you need to delete the non sign version files to see the sign? Just a guess though

It´s fixed. Only one of those Files is needed in it, Cola, Heineken or... (forgot it ^^)

The main city of the region I've been working on, Gaillimh, through time from year 20 to year 250.

This is great, especially for a city where the buildings look to be 80% +  Maxis.

Always a big fan of regions that grow organically the way you've done here.

Astute observations -- i really was going for the "natural but organized" (aka organic) city here.... happy to have pulled it off.  :D

The tallest building I've ever worked on. When I'm done it will have two towers and a base that is a parking garage/rooftop garden.

Fearless Leader .jpg

Hardly fearless. He has miles of underground bunkers installed for his inevitable downfall and escape to "Mother China". Dear Beloved Leader is the preferred nomenclature. That's Daddy Un btw. You can tell them apart, because the hairdos become weirder  with each generation. If you want to get your Un-on, try this lot:

The first of the Edgeworth Flats (22.5 degree rotation) in residential and commercial ploppable for far roads is available to download

here:

(Diagonal and ortho versions will follow shortly)

 

In general, this building looks good (and it is a welcome addition, especially because there's little content for FA-2 roads), but this building doesn't line up properly with FA-2 roads. One can see this in the 2nd screenshot of your post in this thread, the one I left in my quote.

The reason for this is simple: Like many content creators, you make the mistake to assume that with the FA-2 network, the angle is 45/2 = 22.5 degrees. This is wrong. Calculating angles is not that simple. To calculate an angle, it's not sufficient to consider the 1:2 ratio, you need to take the length of the front wall of the house (or the length of the angled route itself along with the length of 1 and 2 cells) into account as well. I'm not an expert in explaining this, especially not in English, thus, the long story short: The angle for the FA-2 network is 26.56505118... degrees. The formula in trigonometry for this is:

α = arctan a/b = arctan 1/2

I've posted a picture of a right triangle in my slope mod tutorial which may help you understand. Imagine a as the length of 1 cell, b as the length of 2 cells, and c as the angled line connecting the "loose ends" of a and b. α is the angle you are searching for.

In that post I stated that I made that set of flats to fit CPs overlay textures and it wasn't designed for FAR2 roads but it looked good enough for the purpose.
