Hey Alexzero77 thanks for those links I will try to do my best on those metalic or plastic palm trees I will use the last link you gave as a guide to make the Macy's I might post an update later or tommorow of what I have done Chapo16

[chapo16 14]

Hi I was trying to open my Burdines BAT but I got this message Does anyone know how to fix this I really like this BAT and I don't want to redo it again, it took me a week. Please Help me

[Alexzero77 3]

Contact Simgoober of Barbyw for this since I know nothing about gmax

[chapo16 14]

Hey you know what Im redoing this BAT. for several reasons It will look more realistic and add some extra details to it So please expect an picture of what I have Chapo16

[Jasoncw 11,841]

your file is probably corrupt. There might be an old version of it in :\gmax\autoback. This has happened to me twice, and after the second time I started using a feature in gmax that, instead of saving, it saves as and adds a number to the end of the filename. So it makes a backup everytime you save. I think it's Customize>preferences>Files, and check "increment on save"

Plus, since you have alot of older versions, if you make a mistake somewhere and want to go back to an older version you always can. And you can always delete the old versions you don't want anymore.

[chapo16 14]

Hey Jasoncw, I checked the aoutoback folders and I dodn't find anything, it was empty, but As I said I will start over Here is a picture Don't forget im still working on it Thank you anyway Jasoncw for taking your time and post, I will start using that Gmax feature Chapo16 Edit: This is already to be textured, so check it out this a south preview a noth preview Suggestions and commentaries are always welcome

Beautiful C16!

[Alexzero77 3]

Another idea:

Perhaps you can put to other identical entrances on the small sides. This way, it could be used if you ever make a mall.

[tcx 170]

Wow this look good, can't wait to see it with textures.

[chapo16 14]

Do you mean I have to put more entrances, Maybe I will do it if needed, so check this pic. here is a picture you requested Tcxalapa Hope you like it Chapo16

[Alexzero77 3]

That's just beautiful! I love it!

[Alexzero77 3]

Here's an ariel view of what I mean.

you arent just gonna make those 2 major department stores without putting them in a mall, are you?

BTW, you seem to be progressing fast with gmax, i just started too and even though ive used blender and inventor/viz before, ive been fighting with gmax. You know any good tutorials? all the ones ive found suck, and the BAT tutorial isnt up yet or will be for some time

[Alexzero77 3]

The mall's main entrance can look like this:

I love the Art Deco flair.

The Mall can also be a "Y" shape where the \ and / are wings with anchors at the end and the | is where the main entrance and food court is. Where they all meet would be the center court.

hamsterTK, I might do a mall, but I will finissh this BAT an the Macy's so I can start the Mall, I will put 3 mayor department store, those are, Macy's, Burdines and Sear from Simgoober. Alexzero77, As I said I will do a mall, and it will be like the mall where i live, Y shaped and include all you want, entrances, glass domes, etc, So wait 'til finish This BAT and the Macy's and i will show you what I've done Chapo16 Edit: Here is the floor plan of the mall Im talking, this the best mall in the Mid-south of the U.S., it is located in Memphis, Tn, that's where I live Wonder why I put those numbers? well, I put those to tell you where each department will be. On #1, i will put the Macy's #2, Burdines #3, Sears and #4 I won't put anything there. Here is a night preview of the Burdines Comments and Suggestions are always welcome

[Alexzero77 3]

Nice lighting! Also, are you going to do the two other entrances?

[chapo16 14]

yes, I will do those, when I finish the macy's

[Alexzero77 3]

Oh... I thought you were going to release Burdines before making the mall like what SG did with Sears, Hects, etc. Are you?

[chapo16 14]

To make this clear I might release Burdines, tomorrow 3/20/06, trust me. Then Macy's, and finally the MALL. Ok

[Alexzero77 3]

I can't wait!

[hamsterTK 93]

excellent. Ive been playing with BAT and i want to do a mall myself(probably a mini mall shopping center with indoor corridor type), unfortunatly theres a few things i havent figured out yet that i need the Omnibus to be completed to learn

anyways, great job. I cant wait for the mall either.

[Alexzero77 3]

Chapo, you there?

[choco1 4]

The department store looks great and is really coming along well. Great stuff you're doing here! Keep it up!

[Alexzero77 3]

Hey C16? Are you there?????

[sloppet 3]

great work there! great buildings!

[MarcosMX 222]

Man forget it this project or whatever is dead. I might redo it whenever I finish my Kinko's So would you like me to finish his project

[Alexzero77 3]

That would be awesome! But why are you doing Kinko? SG has already made one.

[subedei 3]

These are some really nice BATs. I hope the project gets going again. Keep up the great work
