    Edvarz reviewed mattb325's file in Residential

    These are going to feature everywhere in my 19th century districts!!! Thank you!

    I think it's perfect!! Will you do color variations?

    Nice!! Can I sugest a "dirtier" or maybe slightly darker texture for the roof? Of course, it already looks awesome and I can't wait to see more of your creations!! It is always great to see you back, man, but it's even better when you bring something like this

    YESS!!!! I've even been thinking about learning to BAT myself to make some of these. Fantastic!! If you need house models for inspiration or reference, I'd be happy to help

  5. ¿Qué estás haciendo?

    Edvarz replied to matias93's topic in Simtropolis en Español's Plaza Mayor

    Excelente idea combinar los parques de Deadwoods con los edificios de la Rectoría y la Biblioteca Central! Queda perfecto y es muy cercano a la forma en la que de hecho está construida la CU de la UNAM. Respecto a comercios, sólo se me ocurren edificios de servicios comerciales pequeños y wall to wall, como los de gutterclub, o los edificios del pack comercial LBT de Erjolog (aunque esos casi seguro que ya los tienes), quizá algunos edificios japoneses de densidad media como el pack Zakkyo

    I don't really know a lot about batting but it's looking really good. I guess it just needs a bit more work on making the textures less clean and maybe adding more roof junk. Keep on batting and I hope we can see some of your models on the STEX sometime!!

    I believe @matias93 requested araucarias some time ago, I don't know if he ever convinced someone to make them. And while we're on the topic of trees, I'll just leave some jacarandas over here....

  8. Mexico

    Edvarz commented on korver's City Journal Entry in True Earth

    I can see my house on one of those panoramics!! Amazing work as always. The city shots are spot on, the nature shots really show the variety of ecosystems we have and the Cathedral shot is just stunning!

  9. BAT Request Thread

    Edvarz replied to Jasoncw's topic in SC4 - Custom Content

    Let's see if I can gain the favour of the BAT gods with this offering: El Palacio de Hierro department store in Mexico City (location) Liverpool department store, also in Mexico City, right across the street (location):

    Bumpity bump! Trying out the new SC4 Cartographer for the region I've been working on for I don't know how long: The financial center city tile: The central district (WIP still): And the complete region view:

    Ahhh crap!!, forgot my phone upstairs
  12. Vamos a ver si revive un poco este pequeño club. Desde hace un rato he pensado que quizá sería buena idea que contáramos con una guía centralizada desde la cual se pueda encontrar cualquier contenido latinoamericano y posiblemente ibérico para SC4. Desde los clásicos del equipo LBT, hasta creaciones recientes como las de @Adrianor (ojalá algún día regrese ) o los impresionantes rascacielos de @Diego Del Llano. He pasado tanto tiempo buscando y recolectando BATs y Lotes latinoamericanos que creo que tengo una idea bastante buena de qué es lo que hay aquí en ST. Sólo faltaría el tiempo para hacer la guía y una forma de clasificar el contenido para que sea de fácil acceso. La cuestión es: no sé qué tan útil pueda resultar, puesto que somos un pequeño nicho dentro de otro nicho y quizá no hay muchos jugadores latinos interesados en SC4.
  13. @Diego Del Llano Ya le hice espacio a el edificio La Nacional, junto a la Torre Latino, donde corresppnde jajajaja

  14. ¿Qué estás haciendo?

    Edvarz replied to matias93's topic in Simtropolis en Español's Plaza Mayor

    He estado incorporando más edificios de estilo colonial al juego, les dejo una imagen a ver si identifican cuáles son :

    I've been working on this since the quarantine started: A latin american historic downtown inspired by Mexico City. I finally felt like there was enough variety of BATs available to attempt it without ending up with something extremely repetitive.

  16. Art Deco BATs

    Edvarz replied to Diego Del Llano's topic in SC4 BAT & Lot Workshop

    I can't beleive I hadn't found this thread! How about brazlilian Art Deco? Also, there's some nice examples on this pack:
  17. Hi Simtropolitans! I'm upgrading my 5 year old laptop soon, and I would like to know what specs would be good for handling SC4 with up to 3gb of plugins and on hardware mode, if possible. I currently have a 2.4 Ghz Intel Core i3 CPU, with 4 GB of RAM and a NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M GPU. I can run the game just fine, but lately I tend to only play medium sized city tiles, without an HD terrain mod or a custom tree controller, and with shadows and automata turned off; I also use an "Endless summer mod" by Twrecks to limit seasonal trees and save on some performance. However, an HD terrain mod is not a necessity on my book. I know modern hardware can handle this game just fine, but I've heard some GPUs like some basic Intel ones are problematic. For the price range I'm on, I'll most likely end with a similar CPU and GPU, and with a similar amount of RAM, I guess I mainly want to know about the graphics card. Also, I don't know about AMD processors and GPUs, since I've never had a computer with one. Thanks in advance!

    Ohhh man, I can't wait to have this one!! And it's really cool that you recreated the original design!!
  19. Hi! I'm trying to update the regional view of my city tiles but they all save with different definition, you can see it by comparing the tiles to the north and southeast. The tile in the bottom right corner is the worst offender. I've tried saving the city in all zoom levels, using the floppy disc icon. My graphic settings are all on high with the exception of cars and shadows, I run hardware rendering and a custom resolution. Any idea how I can harmonize all the tile overviews?
  20. I'll try that! It has to be the tile because when I opened and saved the adjacent one, that thumbnail didn't have any problem whatsoever

  21. Dealing with 'weedy' lots

    Edvarz replied to Flann's topic in SC4 - Custom Content

    Well, those two are closely related. And you can actually modify both at the same time with PIM-X, so you could give it a try
  22. Actually, you don't even need to rezone, just demolish, unless you wanna change the lot's footprint ofc.
  23. I'm surprised to see Reader can open and write over a save file without anything bad happening! But... when I resaved the city, the thumbnail still looked blurry Hey, that might be a good idea, maybe I have something running in the background, I usually open the game after I'm done working so it could be a lack of RAM
  24. So, no dice. I imported the city tile to another region (something I planned to do anyway) and the issue still persisted. I also did the thing when you switch focus while saving to purposefully create the glitch where the city thumbnail disappears (I made a backup, ofc) I then saved again and it still looks blurry, whatever the season is. Only thing left is to manually remove the PNG to see if it resets and hope the save file doesn't corrupt in the process. If it doesn't work I might just let it be because I wouldn't know what else to do

    As @Tyberius06 pointed out, they were already on NAM 36, as part of the new flexible turning lanes. I find them extremely useful for urban expressways that lead to secondary roads. I tried experimenting with Real Expressway but so far it doesn't support OWR3 ramps or splits, only one and two lane OWR ramps EDIT: Oh, and here's a tutorial that helped me learn how to use them:
