SM2 Small town water tower

I needed one for one of my small town farming maps and so I made it.

First stab at a skyscraper (fictional).  Maybe I bit off more than I can chew.  Lot of work left, but lots of respect for the batters that actually make these look nice.  Feedback is welcome; I have thick skin 

Had to partially texture early to line up the lighting.

[Barroco Hispano 26,938]

I'm not going to add more lights because it increases rendering times too much (Exporting the night version takes 2.5 times longer than the day version). I still have to fix a light leak.

I almost went blind.

Due to rendering times I completely rule out exporting the Maxis Night version.

Stunning! I had a dream last night that you did theme parks around the world!

I'm trying to light the ship but I think it looks unrealistic

Maybe it's just lonely. Maybe you could hook it up with the SS Corina. They could make a little family of oilers.

Seriously, I like this lighting. Gives it a bit of atmosphere.

@20huskies, the skyscraper is coming along nicely.

A quick update on Simfox's JR Freight building:

Everyone is working on these big amazing skyscrapers and battleships and here I am working on my crappy little small town lot

Harris-Teeter completed.

[mattb325 28,891]

Daiwa House is now in game. 

I've made a couple of stylistic changes to the original (the real life building, that is) ...most notably shortening the helipad tower section and filling in the roof garden space with more plants as well as reducing the side ground space so that this building fits into a 4x4 space, which is one of the most common lot sizes for CO$$$

[EffTheGrid 3,726]

Hot off the presses: 2 colors! 2 rotations! For use along FA2 roads.

Want to see them in-game? Head over to my thread and download to try them out. This property and several more are included!

I need some guidance before an official release comes.

Thanks to everyone who as helped so far. Cheers

Daiwa House ya está en juego. 

Hice un par de cambios estilísticos en el original (es decir, el edificio de la vida real) ... especialmente acortando la sección de la torre del helipuerto y llenando el espacio del jardín de la azotea con más plantas, así como reduciendo el espacio lateral del suelo para que este edificio cabe en un espacio 4x4, que es uno de los tamaños de lote más comunes para CO $$$

Oooohh my God, what a wonderful creation, I would like to have it in my cities!!

Skyscrapers get all the glory, but it's the small stuff that makes up the suburbs and the cities and helps make CJs realistic.

That is the best designed SC4 skyscraper I have ever seen and I've seen LOADS of custom ones. NOICE!

New Bond St London (the one with the Chanel awnings)

is another from the bat request thread. What I liked about this one is that it has an elegant facade, but is actually a bunch of different buildings all turned into one over many years.

Wow, it's looking just like the original!  Thank you so much for your hard work, Matt.

Very well done! Your productivity and the quality are stunning and one of the reasons why - after all these years - it is still fun to play this game. Thanks to you and all the other content creators. I hope you guys do not get tired of it, because I have zero desire to even look at another city-building game.

Little South America Testing !

Today I am trying out a city with all maxis sets turned off with Dusktrooper Maxis blocking set. This is part of my South America Africa set so these lots need to be present in the final result ! Each city tile set run for a while. Flags in the European Set may be because aswell the maxis trees are for some reason turned of so that I have to adress later !

Overal town look, right Houston and below European, Left up Chicago, below Newyork and in ultra left below all sets !

Houston Set

No bat´s or southern lots to find, but this may be due to it be less populair !

European Set

Some lot´s showing !

Chicago Set

Chicago style do show some southern infulence still less than fifty percent or theiir something will be !

New York Set

New York square block looks quit south american, adjacent still old school

All Sets

All sets seem to bring up a nice mix of pro dominantly  south sphere bat´s, only little repetition of some. Plopable Bats lots may bring more conscistensy in what´s left as growable lots you have no real control over them !

Several UserDir I have with this Dusktrooper block set, this seem to give a mixed result. What is the right city set to choose, obviously Houston not, Chicago-New York and European sets best. Only advantage with Houston sets nothing else grows and one can plop what one like´s but this won´t work with the residential lots, as these are growable only. Hope to refine this UserDir  to display more southern america and africa sets !

Enjoy !

Have made a start on an art deco mid-rise, The LA Times-Mirror complex. Part of this complex appeared in the BAT request thread (the old spanish influenced Times building), which I may yet do, but for the minute, I am just focusing on an extension done in the early 1940s

@mattb325

Bring on the Art-Deco !!!

LOVE that stuff !!
