Nice work people and I like the forums. But please re-think the Stex, it is a big disapointment. How on earth are you supposed to quickly judge if a Bat is to your taste with such small pictures? Sorry folks but I'm with Madhatter106 on this one. When and if the site is ever up-graded to vesion 8 would it not be a good idea to show some pre-view pictures of the new look so that this sort of reaction could be avoided? Don't get me wrong I am very appreciative of all the hard work and congradulate all those involved in the transfer over to version 7.

Getting much better. The new Blue is a huge improvement.

Try Ctrl + prt sc or on some laptops its Fn + prt Sc . If you have Windows 7 you could use the snipping tool.

Everyone is going to vote for all 3 of your choices...lol, and I am know you would do them justice. I'm sure you don't need telling but never be tempted go for a quick turn-around alone you may take a look at your work later and think "if only i'd done that" and regret it. A good Bat takes time something that you have shown you can give. (sorry didn't mean to sound patronising here). On the subject of lighting Zero7 gave a pretty good explanation of how he does his lighting in my thread. Follow the link below it was very useful to me. Regards Mntoes

Very nice work. I honestly like the marble steps and would keep them. Can we have a night view please?

Hello all, Not sure if this is the correct forum to post this problem in but I have not seen any threads reporting an error on the Simtropolis website. When I try to access certain threads in the forums I keep getting th efollowing error. This happens on more than one computer. I can't even post in my own thread. It seems to occur at the start of a new page. I just wanted to know if anyone else is experiencing the same problem? Are admins aware of this prtoblem. Regards Mntoes -
SimFox Thanks for that explanaion I often wondered about that.
-
Have you downloaded and installed the SC4 Update for bat. That is for the lighting to work in-game I think. Hope that helps. Mntoes

Don't appologise for being off-topic in your own thread. Happy xmas.

https://www.simtropolis.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=37&threadid=87425&enterthread=y&STARTPAGE=2 Error code 6 is mentioned in this thread. Do a more thorough search and you'll probably get your answer. Hope this helps.

This is turning out to be a great bat. You might want to re-size your pictures though maximum size is 800 x 600.

Yes I agree I would be tempted to change the name of that business. As stated it could be seen as very offencive in the UK. Kind of reminds me of when I went to America and saw "The Athlete's foot" (Sports retailer). It obviously does not have the same meaning as in th UK where Athletes foot is a fungal infection of the feet....lol Funny how we all speak English but it's not really the same language somtimes.

That's really not bad at all. The blue colour looks a little bit too violet for my liking but otherwise well done.

Thank you once again Jason. I feel like a real doubting Thomas now. I'ts good (bad ) to know that someone else has the same problem. -
BAT - Troubleshooting & General Discussion
mntoes replied to Jasoncw's topic in SC4 BAT & Lot Workshop
Thanks for the suggestion Jason. I tried rendering on a better machine but still the same effect. I'm now slowly re -making the model by saving selected pats and merging them into a new scene. I'll see what happens. I am now convinced it's something to do with a corrupt file as the now half re-made model renders ok. (if that make sence). Thanks for the help anyway. Worth a try. -
BAT - Troubleshooting & General Discussion
mntoes replied to Jasoncw's topic in SC4 BAT & Lot Workshop
Can anyone help with this problem? I have re-exported this model. Re-fitted the lods. Saved and merged the building into a new scene. Reset the lights, lods and cameras and finally re instaled Gmax with the texture fix. but still I get this on export. The strange thing is it appears only on this side of the render now, whereas it apeared on two sides before i saved part of it and merged it into a new scene? What is causing these dark marks???? -
You could try the extra cheats DLL from the stex. That should work I think. https://www.simtropolis.com/stex/details.cfm?id=21118 The command you want to use is "lotplop" regards Mntoes

Welcome back. I wondered where you had gone. The lucky penny looks great.

Update Ok, I have been experimenting with the lighting method explained by Zero 7 . Not sure if i'm quite there yet but I'm pleased withe the improvement so far. Back Front I hope the improvements show, it's taken a while to get this far. Regard Mntoes
-
Zero 7 Thanks for such a comprehensive explanation. This has given me plenty to experiment with. Can't appreciate youe help enough. Cheers Mntoes
