What do you have to say?

(I know too many lightposts, working on it)

[Godzillaman 21]

Make the red trimming darker...stands out too much...other than that, I like it.

I have not forgeten, Just have a lot to do on this thing

Good to see you back Becca! Missed ya! Hope you're feeling better.

Aside from the light posts, the modelling looks pretty good. The ground seems a little plain. Is that a 3d object or base textures? It needs some painted lines, etc... Storage places have parking spots, arrows, numbers on the ground, etc...

I have a cool trick to add those if you want to know it. It's a but long to describe, but it did wonders on a lot of my recent BATs.

It took me a bit to notice it, but the building's footprint spells out the word "HI!" Clever!

[RebaLynnTS 276]

Sparky, for being the first to mention the "HI", you win a free download of the MSS!

Oh, wait .. it's free anyway

[RebaLynnTS 276]

Now that the LAR version 2 is out, I'll be going back to work on the MSS (set 1) .... Watch this space.

I would say the red trim needs to be darker and all the textures could be a bit dirtier. The ground is kind of open and not dirty enough and the roofs look brand new, which they should, but only for the first 5 minutes after being built. You can fix this by using the Color Burn version of the paint brush in Photoshop.

[RebaLynnTS 276]

I don't have photo shop, but the app I have will let me do something similar.

I've already updated the red, and will be working on the other textures shortly.

Here is a small update on the MSS, and a few popup camper props.

[RebaLynnTS 276]

Here's a look at the aged textures for MSS.

[RebaLynnTS 276]

Another update .... Comments?

[RebaLynnTS 276]

Here you can see the main gates, and moving vans. I will be adding some more variety in the vans, now that I know how to do it.

[Jasoncw 11,949]

hmmm, you should probably remove the dumpster, since it is out of scale with everything else on the lot. You should also enable shadows in the game when you look at BATs, since it helps to judge how it will sit in its environment better.

It's looking good.

[RebaLynnTS 276]

I was kind of thinkging the same thing about the dumpster.

If you want some more info on MSS ...

[RebaLynnTS 276]

This is it, the final Pre-release photo.

I updated the textures in the parking lots, and added a cross lot.

[JaWood 194]

These storage units look really good now. I've read all the thread up to where you are now, and they've come a long way. These are something that will help us to make our industrial sectors more realistic and diverse.

[bbfan02 23]

Great job! I agree fully with JaWood.

[RebaLynnTS 276]

Glad you like them, here are some lot photo's, so you know how they work .. and one showing the chain fence (There will be other types of fence to choose from later).

[T Wrecks 10,210]

Holy cow, this is superb! You've really made incredible progress, RebaLynn! IT should be fun to play around with this set, and now everything is looking as it's supposed to look. Congratulations!

[Mom mode] I hope you have backed everything up just in case... it would be too annoying to lose everything an inch before the finish line.[/Mom mode]

[RebaLynnTS 276]

Thanks for the concern .. I keep triple back ups

1 Daily (Second hard drive)

1 Weekly (DVD)

1 Monthly (Internet)

Not to mention periotic backups to thumb drives.

[RebaLynnTS 276]

MSS Soon to be released ... BE sure to check the online read me Here.

[nofunk 1,933]

You've done a really nice job on these! I can't wait to download them. =)

[ianpaschal 77]

Nice work. I would still make the textures EVEN darker, but that's just my style You're are dirty enough imo to look realistic.

[RebaLynnTS 276]

MSS is now posted ... Scipio: I can make you one with darker textures, if you like.

[RebaLynnTS 276]

Working on an update to the Fence Props, here is a set of aluminum fences, with yellow brick pillars, lighted.

I will also be adding more to the chain link series.

Not sure if I should update the current file, or upload a new one ... thoughts?

[bigskelding 12]

Id say post a new one so that everyone knows its there and its updated!

[RebaLynnTS 276]

I was thinking the same thing ... the new update will also include more chain link fence props. I've also added some diagonal fences.

[RebaLynnTS 276]

Had a request to put my fence props on a set of grass lots ... so here they are.
Should be done and uploaded tomorrow.

I have not stopped working on Cross Lands, just taking a short break.

[RebaLynnTS 276]

RLM Grass Lots, Fenced (Textured) has been released on the STEX.
