  1. Waste Transfer Station

    cj505a, it's intended to be an eyesore! It's a skip yard so it's not exactly going to be an item of architectural beauty. The skips are bright blue because (as baddmark pointed out), these things usually are bright colours (usually royal blue as well).
  2. Print Works

    Nonessentialnoodle, it's in Maybush, along Romsey Road but it's much bigger than this and the layout is different. This lot is a compressed version! I just wanted to create a building with the same architectural style as the real thing is very likely to be gone in 2 to 3 years time.
  3. Detached House 1

    Very realistic!
  4. Pictures from my City: London

    The Centre Point building is great, I have download it as well. Just do a search on the STEX for Centre Point.
  5. Print Works

    I agree the textures could do with improving. There is a texture on the grey parts, very small mosaics, but it is hard to see at a distance as the mosaics blend together into grey.

  7. Kwik Fit

    Another type of building lacking from the game! Excellent work!
  8. Industrial Unit 1

    Fantastic! This type of building is very common in the UK (most industrial units seem to be 'tin sheds' and there were none in the game!
  9. Grynder Apartments

    Wow this is really realistic. Nice one!
  10. Six House Row

    Very nice! Reminds me of a council estate in Fareham, England.
  11. Center Apartments

    Excellent work! Another great example of 1960s architecture
  12. NDEX Communist Tenement by Frogface

    Fantastic! Very 60s! This will go very well in my Inner City areas.
  13. Clarence Pier

    Moraifari - Greyveil is going to be creating a modular version of the State Fair reward and is going to be using a modified version of the main building as part of that. I could create a standalone version of the building though if you like, just a 5x3 CS$ lot or something? Let me know.
  14. Clarence Pier

    I agree it needs more rides, maybe that's something for the future. There are a few on the STEX but they are either too big or have grass textures as part of the sc4model file. Not sure about the Superloop, I think it went the way of the Ferris Wheel :(

    Clarence Pier A real building from Southsea, a part of Portsmouth, UK which opened in 1961. This pier is unusual in being much wide than it is long. The pier features a variety of funfair amusements although unfortunately the ferris wheel is long gone from the real thing. The building itself is a pavillion containing the 'Golden Horseshoe' amusement arcade, a Bingo Hall, a Wimpy® fast food restaurant and Pirate Pete's indoor play area for the kids. Fun for all the family! Stats: Building type: Park (with an excellent effect on both residential and commercial areas) Lot size: 11 x 4 (needs to be placed on a coastline) Plop cost:
  16. ISAT Crossword Tower

    Very nice design, a typical 60s/early 70s office building.
  17. Bus Stop Set

    Fantastic work! I was never very keen on the MAXIS bus stop, most of the bus stops where I live are like yours.
  18. Fairground reward (making it modular)

    OK I'll create a copy of this and change the 'Clarence Pier' signs to 'The Dirk Expo Center'. As for the colours, maybe red and yellow would look good? I can change this very easily as it's a texture so it's just a case of changing the colour. OK, hopefully I'll get the model file to you tomorrow.
  19. Fairground reward (making it modular)

    My 'Clarence Pier' building should be ready very soon! Greyveil, do you want me to change the signage and create a custom sc4 model file for you? If so, let me know what you want the amended signs to read. At the moment there are the following signs: 'Clarence Pier' front sign 'Golden Horseshoe' front sign 'Clarence Pier' letters around the top of the tower 'Wimpy', 'Bingo' and 'Pirate Pete's creche signs (these are probably OK). Also, if you want I could change the blue and yellow panels to different colours if you want something different from my standalone version (which will actually be a pier). Here's the very latest shot. See also this thread https://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/files//cp7.jpg align=baseline>
  20. Portsmouth City Area UK

    Nice! This will accomodate all your Portamouth buildings and my forthcoming Clarence Pier very well! All we need now is The Tricorn!!!
  21. Portsmouth Office Building

    Fantastic work, I love this building, it looks very modern even though it was built in the 60s (I think). Keep those local buildings coming!
  22. Hidden Building Foundations

    I think you can set this option in Lot Editor rather than GMAX - it is all related to the Foundation and Elevation Change options under the first tab in LE. I'm not ver familiar with these options but I'm sure the Help for LE will explain how to use these parameters.
  23. Fairground reward (making it modular)

    Date: 2/1/2005 6:55:12 AM Author: Lord_Bertrum I like the idea of a lido, I don't think theres anything like the architecture of a British Seaside town, Bournemouth for example. What about Fat Willy's surf shack from Torquay? Do you have any photos of Fat Willy's from Torquay? I went on holiday there last year and there's certainly some interesting architecture (actually the Model Village has loads of really good 50s/60s buildings) and I like the cafe by Paignton pier.
  24. Fairground reward (making it modular)

    Quote: Lord Bertrum: It would be nice to have a selection of BATs that could be used to create a seaside town in a small region. I agree! Seaside architecture is one of my favourite types and indeed I have developed countless seaside towns in SC4 although they lack realism. I will probably be doing some more Piers at some point, maybe an Art Deco Lido, any opther ideas let me know!

    Date: 1/31/2005 7:41:57 AM Author: Lord_Bertrum Date: 1/31/2005 2:41:29 AM Author: GaryReggae Date: 1/30/2005 9:14:16 PM Author: Lord_Bertrum Date: 1/30/2005 12:52:28 PM Author: GaryReggae Date: 1/30/2005 7:46:01 AM Author: Lord_Bertrum The photo really reminds me of some thing from a Gerry Anderson series, Captain Scarlet I think? The last time I saw it, I was 9, so I might just be imagining it. Yeah, this building has a very cartoony, fun look about it.  A lot of buildings from that period did but this one has to be the most zany I have seen!  I can't remember Captain Scarlet as I haven't seen it for years but I love the space-age architecture in Thunderbirds and Stingray.  Fantastic stuff. Yeah, but I hope your not going to BAT a Tracy Island, that would be going way too far for me.Er...no!!!  I will probably be doing pleny more 50s and 60s 'space age' architecture but I very much doubtI I will be doing Tracy Island!!! What do you have in mind?Hmmn I haven't decided yet. Probably more 'Seaside' themed buildings. I'll also be doing plenty more concrete '60s buildings as well.
