Buenos Aires, from 1536 to modern times

Calm down. It's okay. Just use the Washington Monument as a substitute. It's 2x2 but it's a pretty good obelisk.

it's 3x3... that is why I dont use it... In previous versions, I used to use it, but it's really out of proportion... The washington monument is 160 mts approx... the Obelisco is 67 mts... trust me, and plus the tiles... it should 1x1, and the washington is 3x3

You could make the model yourself, or use the Lot Editor - I think the Monument Building itself is on a 1x1? Even if not, the monument is like in the middle of a avenue correct? I could help that possibly.

Also, this is unrelated but, how have you been managing to post pictures?
I have a JPG on ImageShack, its the right size, but I get
'You are not allowed to use that image extension on this board.'

well, I use phtobucket, and when I post them in here they automatically "fit" to what they are restricted to fit... The thing is.. I dont know how to BAT... I know, that I should, but I dont... and it would take a lot of time and a lot of practice to get it right, If you could make it, well it would be great, yes its located in the middle of 9 de Julio, it's the most importante landmark. Before the Obelisco was built, there was a church. That church was made as a monument. The thing is that the church represented where the Argentinian flag was (now dont laugh, but I dont know how to say it) "PULLED UP"?? hahaha I dont know how to say it... and then the Obelisco was made so that everybody could see it around the city... VERY IMPORTANT! VERY VERY IMPORTANT!

I'm sorry to that from your region. as for the obelisco i can't BAT but i would bet that there is more than just the washington monument. try searching on ST, capital simcity and sc4devotion.
i remember a parkset which had a set with an obelisc. maybe you can use this one to lot your own.

suerte che

Well... I've searched the ST and the only one I found as a 1x1 is not really good. I mean it is a good BAAT, but its not the color or height I need. The reason why I need it to be 67 mts is because of the impact is gonna have on the game. The buildings around 9 de julio have a certain height, which I managed to download a couple of buildings that really capture the essence of it, BUT! when I place the Washington monument it makes them look really low... Let's face it... the buildings that stand around 9 de julio are not really tall... those are midrises with probably 15 stories approx, and as I said it before the washington monument is 170 mts... and the obelisco is 67 mts... ITS MORE THAN TWICE THE HEIGHT! which makes the whole thing look awful... that's why I'm asking anyone to please BAT... I dont believe it's really hard to do for someone that has some kind of experience and I would be really greatful! Si loco, se me complica un poco... pero bueno, yo no encontre nada en devotion y tampoco aca... tienen algunos, pero son unos egipcios.. y el otro no me sirve por q no puedo modificar el coso original

I can model the obelisk for you, I use sketchup however and I have to import it into BAT, so it takes some time.

And maybe its the browser I'm using or something.

Really?? THAT WOULD BE AWESOME! thanks a lot... Ask me anything you need to do it... THANKS A LOT TIMOMAN! oh and btw... I'm currently working on 9 de Julio... so while you do the Obelisco I will make an update of what the city looks right now...

THANKS AGAIN TIMOMAN!

I have it completed, 67.5 meters tall, it fits on a 2x2 lot but you can change that if you wish. :'D

The only problem is I can't seem to upload it to the STEX. It keeps saying
'There was an error attempting to upload the file. Please contact an administrator'

how about you send it to my email?? I can PM you with my address and sent it to me... please?

I could do that if you wish, or upload it somewhere else.

I sent you a pm... did you receive it?

Upload it at sc4devotion? or where would you upload it?...

No problem :'D

WELL I HAVE IT! so people... tomorrow we shall see an update of the city! special thanks to timoman.. the next update will be after you hahaha its gonna be dedicated to you!
