Bixel, you are one crazy guy! Is that your Mong Kok blocks I see? I just can't even comprehend how created something like that. Great street signage too XD!

Haha, dose it say Japan dose it? I can't read in Japanese of Cantonese. Because I'm just making these textures from random photo's on the net I don't know what they say- Kinda stupid really... lucky it doesn’t say adult store or something worse... Because in Hong Kong everything is named Lucky Dragon- Here are Lucky Dragon Lofts (The first Mid Rise Residential for the HK street pack) - Based loosely on the apartments shown in the picture above. Still working on the front wall.

Brick windows? I ment on the first tower (Orange and green windows). I know you havn't textured 'commieblock' yet (Nice name by the way!)

Damn Simfox, you really are a great BATer, but you already know that of course. These two latest new projects are as always very good, nice colour schemes and interesting shapes. If it were up to me I'd just tone down the orange and green colour on the first tower just a bit but I haven't seen a photo of the real life building so I don't know what it really looks like. Keep it up Simfox, awe inspiring stuff here!

Once again, great job on this city! That park area looks very good and with a nice ammount of cool custom trees. Keep it up man!

Honestly I don't care if this is your one millionth CJ, those pictures are almost too good to be true. Fantastic range of custom content, beautiful photo effects and great realism. You should get an award for this or something man. I wish I could create something of that quality Keep it up!

Yea, when are you going to finish those? Pitty I don't have 3DS max but I just can't afford it Some in game shots. Just on a temp lot. I'll do the real one after the proper modding stage.

Hey thanks guys! I'm really grateful to be a part of the HKABT now! Paulvmontfort: Thanks for the background info, I've already commissioned HONG KONG as my modder. Bixel: Cool, I've changed my STEX avatar already. Anyway this would be ready for modding now- finished the night lighting so that's 1/3 for the street buildings. HONG KONG, I'll send it to you for moding when I've finished all 3. Day Render: Night Render:

Hey thanks for moving this Jasoncw! BTW, about the name thing, I've trained most people that know me to write it as C0ckatoo-210893 and with the numbers, well most of the time people just leave them out anyway. I've got 2 CJ's and this thread so I don't really want a new account under a different name. (I didn't know ST had a censor when I joined up and I've used this username sucessfully on many other sites.) Oh yea, just about to do the sinage and I've re-done some textures:

Wow guys! I'm flattered . I'd love to be a new member of the HKABT if that’s okay with the other members. T Wrecks, you're a moderator- Can you move this to the HKABT team room? If you can then I would be very grateful! If not will I have to start this thread over? Anyways, the Prince of Wales building is under-going heavy renovations (I got the wrecking ball in, there's little bits of smashed up pixels everywhere! ) So no screen shot today however I've started another project. The Hong Kong Streets Pack. Basically my goal is a SimCity version of this. At the moment It's just an idea but this is kinda what I wanna make- * 3 Medium/Low Rise low wealth street buildings- Like the ones in the above picture. They will probably be wall to wall and have many overhanging street sings. * 3-2 Medium Rise low wealth HK style Apartments- Like these ones. Probably built in the 60s or 70's they will be close to Wall to Wall and a generally dirty appearance. * And 2-1 Tsim Sha Tsui style High Rise Hotels- Probably the Majestic Hotel (Medium Wealth) and the Peninsular Hotel (High Wealth). And I'll release it all in one big pack similar to the way the Asian City block pack was released. I've started work on the first medium rise low wealth street building. (Named- Lucky Dragon Chinese Medicinal Herbs ) lol...

Oh well done Mikeaut1! Very well deserved and congrats to dasilva too.

Just a quick note, I'll be starting work back on the Prince of Wales Building today. I'm probably going to re-work the entire tower and base sections using the method shown by Bixel on the last page (or something like that ) Also thinking of doing a second version of the Yau Ma Tei... building, but only when I've mastered my night lighting skills a little better. I'll try and use the 6459978 smudges and maybe a little exterior skeleton too for V2, but for now it's back to work on our old friend. I think that’s something to do a little down the track but everyone in my CJ was so persistent that I release it in its current state. HONG KONG: What? I'm not part of the HKABT? Am I? I thought that team room was only for Team Members showcases.

Originally posted by: Pinkyred9 hey, you can download the patch from the simcity website. www.simcitysocieties.com problem is that now the site is now completely devoted to simcity societies and it's hard to find the update. so i'd suggest a google search. hope that helps.quote> Even though this has nothnig to do with this thread, you can get the update here. They didn't get rid of the old SC4 SimCity.ea.com, they just made it a sub-page of the SCS website.

Just my 2 cents: I'm sure if the United States is going to ban it then some other country will just go ahead and do it, but that might put it back 20-30 years or so. All a bit stupid really, why not? They were the first on the moon- why not be the first on Mars.

Good question. I'm not sure of the awnser but because your the ExtraCheetsDLL it's not exactally the same growing them so I don't see why you cant.

Well you guys and a few people in my CJ seemed to think Yau Ma Tei Currency Exchange was worth uploading so I've put it on the STEX. It should be there in a few moments. EDIT: Well, looks like that stupid publishing cycle is broken again! We'll have to wait until it's fixed to see it up. ANOTHER EDIT: It's on the front page lol
