pclark06 Retail BAT stuff

[RRetail 7,906]

I've been to Webster yet never noticed that. lol

[pclark06 11,830]

the Wingstop is boring. would compete against C$$ 1x3 and 1x2 Maxis buildings. maybe will add a couple other brands to it too. Qdoba is progressing well. have some other projects too.

[RRetail 7,906]

That Wingstop building may wind up making a good candidate for a start of a modular plaza. Simply keep the building, but re-texture it to add other brands. It might not look so boring if it isn't all by itself.

I have decided that I will make individual growables and a ploppable? plaza with all of them. Similar to SimGoober's small shops.

(roof texture will obviously be darker... I am importing them into the game for texture comparison and sizing purposes)

 

The full plaza version I think will have: Wingstop

PPG

Smashburger

Sports Clips

Marco's Pizza

Five Below (anchor for plaza ver)

@pclark06 so the Five Below we only be in the plaza nothing else? 

[RRetail 7,906]

Five Below should definitely be bigger in size then a 1x2 lot space, perhaps even a 2x2. 2x3 would probably be appropriate in my opinion. 

[pclark06 11,830]

@Evanjs Yeah, only because I've never seen a standalone one but maybe I might make it standalone.

the other ones are 1x3, so if I do have it stand alone it'd definitely be 2x3 or 3x3

But you could give it a opportunity for a reloter. To add in other lots.

I know. What I am saying I just haven't made a complete decision due to it not even being made yet. I'm still trying to find their font, lol.

more of these little things

[T Wrecks 10,209]

Are you sure you want to include the BATted ground in front, though? As you can see in the last screenshot, the transition from flat BATted ground to lot ground is always somewhat awkward...

yeah, wasn't sure on that. These aren't final as I plan on changing out most of the textures in the individual growable versions so they have more variety in brick and probably will take out those as well. These all will also be put together (hence why that ground is there, to see if the length is good), to be a ploppable full plaza. I don't plan on releasing these for a bit. Really, right now, I am testing to see what works and what doesn't work with these smaller buildings, as well as seeing if the colors of the awnings are too bright or not, as well as the logo colors/readability of the logos. Big time WIP I guess.

[T Wrecks 10,209]

Well, everything you write makes perfect sense, and all in all your stuff is shaping up very nicely, so I guess I'll just shut up, lean back and enjoy the pretty pictures for the time being.

[DavidDHetzel 1,816]

I feel like you could put three of them side by side on a 2x3 Lot

[pclark06 11,830]

a ton of work to do, but the plaza version is under way (the textures won't be as blinding as they are right now, the HVAC will be more variable, etc.). heck, I even made the awnings OCD-friendly.

[pclark06 11,830]

working on individual versions of my plaza. going to work on different brands for the growable-only versions. working on having each one have a different wall texture and unique things for each one, would come out next week.

[Tyberius06 12,189]

Oh, are these smaller than 1 tile? I mean narrower? Could you make them wider to fit onto a 1 tile wide lot (f.e. 1x3 or so, wall-2-wall without gaps between the buildings)?

Anyway you made some great work here!  
Thanks for sharing!

I probably will make some W2W ones in the future here for sure. I actually picked brands that had a tendency to have standalone locations. We shall see!

Next BAT: A Freddy's Steakburgers. Not even close to being done, right now just testing textures and seeing how they look in game right now (this is just the BAT on the lot @RRetail created for my Steak N' Shake). I know I have to make the front windows lower and a bunch of other stuff as well.

[pclark06 11,830]

Freddy's wip. working on the patio area right now. nightlights not final either.

 

[pclark06 11,830]

next up: a Noodles and Company (circa 2013 before they did a rebrand). Obviously windows and other textures are unfinished

[pclark06 11,830]

This Planet Fitness location is based off a location in Manchester, NH (except I went with 3 square pillars instead of 4). It will function as a clinic in-game.

A fictional seller of lab equipment for the next shop set.

How about this defunct restaurant?

We have one already

Bank of the West preview, will be uploaded tomorrowish. strongly considering after this BAT to start migrating over to 3DSMax/BAT4Max. Right now I model a bunch of stuff in 3DS and try to import it over into gmax. I think it's finally time to work off of 3DS and try to fix the file conflicts that caused exporting issues the first time. It will only make me better.

Yes @RRetail did a Relot of it also!

Idk how I missed that. Thanks everyone.

I'm having LOD issues with my Skyline Chili right now so here's something else I am modding.
