Your pleasure. That is your request. So I have to bring this to the game respectfully.

Hello to my fans from Mainland China.

Recently, I got a comment from a Patreon member from Mainland China who wanted to support me on Patreon by paying Chinese Yuan (RMB), I appreciate his kindness in supporting me. However, due to the reason that Patreon doesn't support UnionPay(银联) cards and the trouble of registering Paypal. That means some members can not financially support me on Patreon.

Because of this reason, I am considering registering UniFans(引力圈) specifically for the members from Mainland China. The subscription will be the same there, just like on Patreon the new paid member will have a request as a return gift and my building will be simultaneously put on there as well. 

Right now, everything is still under consideration. I will keep updating the state.

Hoping this will let the members from Mainland China access my work.

Again, Thank you for your support. "來自香港的愛"

 

你好，致来自中国大陆的朋友。

最近我收到来自中国大陆的Patreon用户评论：“可否使用人民币支付订阅会员呢？”。在这里我非常感谢这位朋友的诚意，但是由于Patreon目前无法支持银联卡及注册Paypal对中国大陆用户来说极其的不方便，致使一些用户没办法订阅Patreon。

因为这件事，就此我打算开设引力圈专门为来自中国大陆的朋友。跟Patreon一样新订阅用户将会有一次建筑定制作为回礼，以及跟Patreon同步跟新上传建筑模型。

目前引力圈相关的事情细节还在筹划中，我会不断更新通知的。

希望这样也能让来自中国大陆朋友也可以享受我到我的作品。

就此，再次感谢您的支持 。"來自香港的愛"

And here is the progress:

PS: About the tree. I try to use my higher ploy tree model. However, my computer does not like it very much. So I have to find a more economical way to do that. Considering this is a building.

谢谢，但我不能BAT上海中心大厦，因为用弯曲的形状对建筑物进行建模太难了。尤其是它的鱼鳞状外观。 

如果您推荐一些来自香港、澳门或广东的建筑。我可能会考虑对他们进行蝙蝠治疗。

我非常喜欢你的广州东塔（周大福中心）还有华润大厦，平安中心，这些建筑可否分享，你可以报价，这也是大神您的辛苦成果。

Building looks great! The low poly tree "cheat code" is probably to model the tree as one object and then use Cutout Map, like this

Splendid! That is a great method for my computer to render plants economically. I will explore this method in my smaller project to find out what the best result to feature is.

Anyway, Thank you.

It's my pleasure. You are being kind to me so I have to be kind back to you.

[sejr99999 8,343]

thank you for all these beautiful buildings  they are professional quality and add a lot of beauty to the day & night cityscape

I can only agree. The new tower model looks great, the nightlights are spectacular. However, I would still suggest to have a look at the trees again. They look very artificial (shape of the leaves, saturation). Or maybe there are artificial trees? If not, it would be worthwhile to look at this again because, I think, it might often be underestimated how much impact the flora can have on the overall impression of a BAT.

Apart from that: Great work!

[dubaidude303 1,119]

I love your work so much! It's stuff like this that really gets me back into the game over and over again

Yeah. About the tree, It is a hard cookie for me. I still have to find a way to model it economically and make it look nice in the orth view.

I think this is what I can do the best for that right now:

This is another request project. Also, it is the first Western building I am working on after a really long time.

It is starting to come together now:

Second request completed! I think I should pick some time to test the recent project in game.

That looks so beautiful! I love all the details, those gothic touches and all those stairs. Which building is it based on?

It actually based on 6901 South Oglesby Ave Apt Building in Chicago.

[SneakyDeaky 1,128]

You got the texture colours perfect!

[gutterclub 2,729]

Absolutely beautiful work

[Jasoncw 11,840]

Lovely

For your materials (except for glass), ambient occlusion helps a lot.

I think that a distance of 4.0 meters is best for BATing.

Wow, it does highlight the detail. Thank you very much.

I think I should re-render this building later.

The Japanese Connection 2:

[Ke|is 3,333]

Hi mate,

I was wondering if your "japanese connection" models are going to be available in your PATREON account at some point?

Looking forward  to your response

Hi, @Ke|is

After the end of June, all of my latest models except some exceptions will be released on my Patreon first. Then after an amount of time, these will be put on STEX following my planned schedule.

However, when will my work be released on Patreon is determined by when will it pass my "quality test". The civil and landmark-only buildings will be faster, but the growable buildings will be slower.

Thank you for asking, by the way. I usually model the building from Hong Kong and the surrounding Southern China Province. The latest works that I posted here are actually requested by my Patreon members. Thank to them to request these wonderful building so that they can make it on SC4.

The third request is completed!

 

[Ct1999 4,198]

A Secret Poll for the fourth request:

(The poll is on my Patreon, Everyone can vote it even you don't have a Patreon account)

Hello everyone.

 Technically I have completed the fourth request. I have made various options for this building. However, I am a guy who has difficulty choosing. So I think it will be fun to make a poll and let my members to decide it.

I will collect the results on August 23rd, 2024. After that, I will export the building based on the final result.

Democracy is democracy. The winner is Option 7:"Neon Light Theme (Day-Light on)"

 

Considering the Option 4 "Liminal Light Theme (Day-Light Off)" has the second most votes from my members. I will also export that as well.

 

My democracy is Humanized.
