Ok, so I've some to the realization that I'm horrible at texturing, I can never decide how I should texture a building, or even find the textures when I do. So I'm asking for your help. I modeled this Clock Tower, and I need some suggestions on how I should go about texturing it:

Originally posted by: sim-fan192 Some say that Texans are so discusted by the reckless spending of Pres. Obama that they may seceed from the U.S. but Governer Rick Perry says it won't come to it.quote> I was born and raised in Texas and I would like to say: Please don't pin us all in the same boat. I'm tired of the stereotypes that are placed on Texans. We're not all gay hating, black-lynching conservatives. I don't all say "Ya'll", I don't drive a truck, I've never ridden a horse, I don't own a gun and I've never been hunting(although most people I know do and have been). -Ok now that I got that out of the way- I live in the capital of Texas, and I've heard no talk of seceding, aside from the normal joking about it. Also, Texas doesn't hold any direct right to secede. There are just loop holes that would make it easier for us than any other state. According to the Terms of Annexation, "Texas is a free and independent State, subject only to the Constitution of the United States.." and apparently the Constitution neither directly states or implies that Texas cannot secede, although nothing states or implies that Texas can secede either. As for the US military trying to stop Texas from seceding by a military confrontation. It wouldn't happen, the majority of the military is deployed. I really doubt a civil war would start either, I don't see Kansas coming down here to try and stop us... If Texas were going to secede, there probably wouldn't be much violent resistance. There's no argument about wether or not Texas could survive on it's on. It could, what would stop it? You make it sound as if Texas is a 14 year old kid that is trying to run away from home....

Oh sweet. I'm new to bating and still learning Max. Thanks for the tip mate!

Or you could create an arc, clone it, move it over(depending on the thickness of the wall). Then using the line tool create 2 lines to fill in the gaps on the ends. Then convert one of the arcs into an editable spline, attach the other arc and 2 lines. Don't forget to weld the 4 points that need to be welded. Slap on an extrude modifier and BAM! Herp-- err Curved Wall! Then if you want windows use a boolean. =D

Originally posted by: Tysons4 i think call it Citizens.. things i would like to see in a community simcity game: i really like the pack ideas so you can select what type of city and where you are going to build before you start, but i also want: 1. god mode tools on entire region at once 2. flowing streams and rivers 3. tidal effects for the oceans... low tide, high tide, waves ect 4. a time and date obtained by taking the average of all cities in the region 5. options for government types and/or sandbox modes 6. make it easy to add and take away city squares 7. be able to plop objects that have a big footprints like airports from regional view, and have the ability to cross city lines with them 8. terrain color brushes quote> You might need to write a letter to maxis for these... XD lol

Originally posted by: Cheese89 Signed up, but I have a history of never winning ANYTHING... so I'm not too hopeful quote> Same with me. But the way I like to look at it is that everyone is born with the same amount of "Winning Points" that they subconsciously spend on things that would have a random outcome, helping them win. And so people that never win anything are subconsciously saving their points, for important things, like this or the lottery or prom king. I know it's stupid but it keeps me sane whenever I don't win those concert tickets on the radio.

Yeah, it's a reward that you get when you have 25,000 high tech jobs and The Advance Research Center. It looks like the NASA shuttle launch pad.

Thanks! I'll try that.

How would one go about making a circular plot for a round-a-bout filler like mas71's subway station? I tried messing around with the LODS but it didn't do anything. example:

Originally posted by: SimFox On 3dsMax 2009 / Max2009 Design There isn't much point in using this version as you wouldn't be able to take advantage of ANY of it's new features (as compared to Max2008) since their are all centered on Mental Ray and this particular version of it (3,6) has compatibility issues with Bat4Max export script. So until further notice 3dsMax 2009 is NOT recommended for Bat4Max. You could still use Scanline. But that would be a waste of tool. quote> So if I already have 2009 then I should be able to use it right? I assume it can do everything 2008 can do... How would I go about using scanline for the render?

When I was in highschool I would program my own games for my TI-83+
