Cities: Skylines :- Highrisers Welcome guys, This will be a thread dedicated to my second Cities Skylines project, highrisers! Here I will be creating growable structures for the upper levels of commercial and residential sectors. This may expand over time to other areas but as for now this is the focus. Current Releases Gunwharf Tower Based on a building in Portsmouth, this is a growable structure avaliable for level 4 and level 5 residential LVL4 download link :- http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=417718863 LVL5 download link :- http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=417786461 Admiralty Tower This is a growable structure avaliable for level 5 residential Download Link :- http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=418144542&searchtext=admiralty Office Complex UPDATE [04/04/2015] Office complex Download Link :- http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=419501767 This is a level 2 office structure.

The colours are odd. They should be growing in 4 colours, however I did see somewhere that this is an issue. If the colour is really disliked I will go through the grueling task of reuploading it again to be a more neutral blackish/greenish building again, but only if you threaten me with taking your own life

I don't know what the problem is, however I cannot update the f&^&ing gunwharf tower. I have done so much in the past 1-2hours to update it and it just will not work. The only conceivable way to do it for this damn thing is to delete the whole file from steam workshop and reupload it because usual update methods are refusing to work...but honestly, im just sick of tinkering this damn thing now. Finally did it. It wasnt liking that i renamed a part of the asset, so wasn't registering. Done now, enjoy!

LOD's fixed! feel free to confirm or deny any further issues! V2 should download for you

At the moment I believe changing anything to do with trains,cars,people is not possible. There may be code released or a mod that figures it out but right now, yeah....not likely to be changeable!

Thanks for the update guys, I will get the LOD's fixed on those, I hadn't honestly noticed such drastic deformity! easily fixed!

That looks promising! Looks like I will include more helipads on my buildings in the future!

LOD's as far as I am aware can use all the same maps as the regular model, although 9/10 cases probably only need a diffuse. all you need to do is name the texture file ''modelname_lod_d'' (d being diffuse)

Ratones, sorry I am not sure if I know how to help, I use blender + Gimp. I have no experience with sketch up or 3ds max. One question I do have is when you join them all to make it one object instead of seperate items, is it this is what is messing up your texture? Furthermore if you are struggling with texturing, it would be possible to make the boat an asset prop that you place later on, so it has its own texture/object information

Thats quite alright, not bothering at all. Honestly I do not know if I did anything different for it to spawn on a 3x2 but maybe my process can help you, When I finished the model I made sure to apply any location//rotation//scales before exporting the .fbx file, then in the game asset tool I loaded up a 3x2 building, from memory by default it wanted my tower to also be 3x4 or something along those lines, but I changed it to spawn as a 3x2. I did test the building and it spawned on a 3x2 plot. Hope this helps, sorry I can't be more specific!

Had a link issue with the second tower, it's finally fixed. weird issue.

Good spot on the link fault, changed! For some reason the link appears to be broken, I have 100% used the correct link and it still is showing gunwharf building lvl5 not my Admiralty tower. My goal was to keep the amount of data to an absolute minimum, although I have seen a few works that use 3000tri's and 1024 texture res. My next goal will most likely include the level of detail because I have been holding back to keep below 1000 on these buildings

Cities: Skylines :- A monumental expansion Hey guys, This is a thread for my expansion on unique buildings within Cities: skylines. The goal is to give each tier +1 unique building I-VI. After I have finished this project I will be looking into either more unique buildings or adding alternatives to things such as schools etc with varied statistics.

Got some more of the texturing done for big ben, scale is not correct, that will change when I get round to it. Should get this finished in 1-2days when I have time off work.

The Burj Al Arab was half design choice and half poor reference. I just could not seem to find any representitive information so had to resort to pictures, lots of pictures!

I have had some experience with animating in fbx for Kerbal space program. I imagine ''skeletal animation'' would refer to giving your parts bones to animate that way, but does support simple translations between 'x' object moves 'y' distance in 'z' time. So if you can loop the animation your wheel will infinitly spin

Some impressive work, can't wait to see the building textured! Dubai has some amazing buildings, I recently finished the Burj Al Arab tower, you're free to look and download here If the link does not work it may be because I am new to this forum and still need approval.
