  1. BAT to Lot Editor issue

    deanva replied to deanva's topic in SC4 BAT & Lot Workshop

    I saw a tutorial by Cyclone Boom is that a good instruction for changing what I need? Is that method for changing just one BAT model? Why all of of a sudden am I having trouble, don't think I have changed any thing unless it was by mistake and did not know it.

    OK thanks.

  3. BAT to Lot Editor issue

    deanva replied to deanva's topic in SC4 BAT & Lot Workshop

    Still have the same issue did not change any ID numbers. Made a completely new BAT making sure it was a new one exported to SC4 PIM. Next thing I did was opened Lot editor and the prop was a UPS i batted before. Can not get the new prop to show up in Lot Editor.

  4. BAT to Lot Editor issue

    deanva replied to deanva's topic in SC4 BAT & Lot Workshop

    But what do I change the number to?

  5. On the diagonal runways are they numbered to the compass headings and what degree angle are they to the original runways? Example a n east west runway are the diagonal runways at a 30 degree angle?

      Hi @deanva, they are true diagonal; so 45 degree increments to the original set. Unfortunately you can't have a runway 22.5 so I've approximated the runway numbers. :)

      Well that's fine thanks for the reply.

      You're welcome! Hopefully I answered your question. I think there may be some info on the runway numbering in the pdf included in the download. (I hope!)

      Please post pics of your airport in the Show Us Your Airport thread. I love seeing what everyone comes up with!

    Is the group number found under the DIR file? I f that is the case then both are the same. How would I change the group number? The first image is the new prop I made , second image is the previous one I made a couple months ago at least.

  7. BAT to Lot Editor issue

    deanva replied to deanva's topic in SC4 BAT & Lot Workshop

    Think I did start with a new blank scene.
  8. I made something in the BAT and exported it, however when I try to put the BAT into Lot editor it is a completely different object. Matter of fact it in something I made previously using BAT. First image is what I just made,second image contains two props the one towards the center is what showing up. The prop in the corner is one of the props I made previously. What is going on?

  9. BAT to Lot Editor issue

    deanva replied to deanva's topic in SC4 BAT & Lot Workshop

    When I use the SC4 PIM Extended to use as a prop in the Lot Editor the save button is greyed out. The prop that shows up is something else I have batted. In the image the rotating beacon is suppose to be towards the middle and the prop in the corner is a prop I made two months ago. Can not figure what is going on. The rotating beacon is in the first image I posted. I even made a simple one color cylinder prop to test it and it does the same issue from the BAT to PIM Extended to the Lot Editor. The prop shows up as something else i have made in the BAT.
  10. How did they make the wind turbine blade rotate in the SimCity 4? Is it very complicated to do? I want to rotate like a lighted beacon for my airport if possible to do. Any suggestions or tutorials?
  11. Matt the light beam would work if there was a choice of colors other than just the white one.
  12. That still doesn't tell me how to do it rivit. The lighthouse you mentioned is very close to what I need but a different color on two beams for an airport beacon light.

  13. RMIP 2 Small Airport Edition Vol 1

    deanva commented on Voltaire's file in Transportation

    The only improvement I would recommend is center line lighting non flashing like on the edges to make the runways and taxiways more realistic like they have in the real world. I like the set now just think it would be a better set maybe.

  14. In your highway signs any way to get them on the overpasses?

    Here is one of my parks.

  16. Building a proper port

    deanva replied to Haljackey's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion

    Anyone have a solution yet to the overlapping protective zones? I found one thread on here ,but it did not solve my problem. It happens also with other game pieces like airport taxiways.

    deanva commented on RRetail's file in Commercial

    Thanks that worked wish they would tell you in the main download description that both are needed. It is with others not just RR Retail.

    deanva commented on RRetail's file in Commercial

    The fuel pumps (gas/diesel) and canopies although downloaded and installed do not show in game. What is wrong?
  19. Is there a need for something like the airport security check points in Simcity4?

  20. Airport security

    deanva replied to deanva's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion

    I keep thinking that the game is like a real world. Space can be at a premium even in the game. Making the airport look real even if it is only eye candy.

  21. Airport security

    deanva replied to deanva's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion

    Actually I was referring to inside the terminal itself like in the United States we have TSA security check points. Sorry if i mislead with my original question.
  22. There is no such file.
  23. I did use the save button in GMAX but for some reason the original GMAX files have vanished this has been more than probably a year or more.
  24. If I would like to save a BAT on my hard drive (Windows 10) so it can be edited at a later date, what extension should be used before exporting to the game or for use in the Lot Editor? I have come across where my previous BATs that are in the game I can not edit, the original BAT file because it is not saved on my hard drive. Do not know if I should have saved it a certain way before exporting..Would creating a new file folder with copies of the original BAT model work so I can copy and paste to the GMAX if possible? Hope I am not being too confusing in what I am asking.

  25. Missing textures

    deanva posted a topic in SC4 - Custom Content

    How can I find what texture packs are missing? I accidently deleted my entire plugins folders and had to restore most from an external drive/
