I can't find the "CSX Wave Power Generator" on the exchange anymore. I requested it back in the day and now I don't see it anymore.

Ok. I guess it looks like I need to look up a BAT tutorial in the tutorial section of the forum. Wish me luck! EDIT: Just finished the LE tutorial and man that was easy compared to the other modding programs I have done for games. Next up is the BAT tutorial!

Here is a 3D example of what I mean.

Originally posted by: mrbisonm Now wait a minute. I understand your whole concept, at least I think so, but to make such nine lots, I need to cut the BAT into nine pieces and that is impossible unless you know how to do it. Cutting a BAT model in nine different pieces is impossible in the LE. A BAT can only be modified in the gmax, therefore I need the gmax file for this and I offered this service for LOTting only and not gmax. I don't do BATting anymore. The only way to make such lots in the LE is to make nine different lots and the middle one with the BAT. The others will only be parklike lots ( these either function as C$$$/R$$$ etc.....) that surround the mainbuilding lot and you could plopp in the game the way you want to. Otherwise if you have the nine pieces of that BAT, I will be able to make such lots, no problem. Do you? For the hawkpride147's demand (airport lots), I will be working on them in beginning of next week. Right now RL is keeping me a little too busy. mrbquote> For the 2x2 Arcology all you would need was one single lot since you can roate the lot in game. For the 3x3 Arcology you would only need 3 types of lots. A corner, a side and a middle. Since the corners and sides could re rotated. I mean they will always face one street even the corners. You are thinking opposite. Sides and corners are all touching a road, while the middle is not. Thus it would have to be a park. I have 3DS Max 6 but have never done stuff for Sim City 4 before. If you need help with the model itself i can help I just don't know how to get it into the game. And i don't think your understanding how this is. Each of the surrounding lots are the ones that have R$$$, C$$$, I High Tech, etc. Thus you would need 18 lots total to make. 8 of which look the same and are the corner lot. 8 of which look the same and are of the side lot. And 2 of which look like the center lot. 1. R$$$ Corner Lot 2. C$$$ Corner Lot 3. I High Tech Corner Lot 4. Clean Power Corner Lot 5. Police Station Corner Lot 6. Fire Station Corner Lot 7. School Corner Lot 8. Hospital Corner Lot 9. R$$$ Side Lot 10. C$$$ Side Lot 11. I High Tech Side Lot 12. Clean Power Side Lot 13. Police Station Side Lot 14. Fire Station Side Lot 15. School Side Lot 16. Hospital Side Lot 17. Park Middle Lot 18. Water Pump Middle Lot

Modular Arcology I have been looked over the forum but i have never found a proper Arcology because you cannot give one lot all the properties of a real Arcology from Sim City 2000. But what if it was done in more than one lot? Imagine an Arcology that was split into 9 equal parts. The top, bottom and sides would all be identical while each of the corners would be identical to each other and the center would be unique. Thus one would only need to make 3 lots that fit together like a puzzle. Then from those lots you would give them each special attributes such as plopable R$$$, plopable C$$$ or I High-Tech. You could make one for each type such as an side, corner and middle. That way one could make an arcology with whatever they wanted such as one that had all R$$$ or maybe one that was a mix of all the different types. Also each individual lot could be the maximum lot size so once you put them all together it would make the most massive building you will ever see. No to mention you could make maybe an inverted corner so you could make the Arcology in any shape you wanted. As long as it all fit together like a puzzle. Super long ones or star shaped ones or even horse shoe shaped Arcologies. The problem is I have no experience in this and am looking for someone to make it. I know it’s a good idea so I thought I would post it for anyone to do. Apparently some BATers were confused on what i ment with he modularl Arcology. Its not a lot that can do different zone types. Its separate zoned lots that fit together, thus appear like they are a single building. Here let me just use an example with 4 buildings. Lets say we have an Arcology shaped as a wedge. Lot #1 is a plopable R $$$, Lot #2 is a plopable C $$$, Lot #3 is a plopable I High Tech and Lot #4 is a Clean Power Plant. All of them look identical and fit together into a single mega structure when placed in the right configuration next to each other. (See Image Below) Here is how it would work. You would have 3 different models; Lot type A which is a side. Lot type B which is a corner. And lot type C which is the middle. Lot A = R$$$ or C$$$ or I High Tech Lot B = Police or Fires Station or Hospital or Power Plant (Clean) Lot C = Park or Water Pump Thus you would have 1 R$$$ Lot A, 1 C$$$ Lot A and 1 I High Tech Lot A. Each looking identical but each functioning with a different zone. This goes for the other lots as well. The reason Lot C has a park and water and not the other types is because the others need to touch a road but they don't. (See Image Below).

Posting my idea here too since this was a relevant topic to it and apparently not many people read the BAT request thread anymore.

Is anyone remaking this?? Arco are my faorite in SimCity 2000

Ok i really want some arcologies to come back. Thye were super huge and allowed for uber population. And came in many shapes and sizes. Launch Acrology

Bamboo Trees in the Tree Menu African Trees in the Tree Menu Golden Tall Grass in the Tree Menu

Ok i have seen pig, cows, chicken... heck even a llama farm, but i have not seen a sheep or a goat farm. Could somone make a farm with goat or sheep. Myabe one for sheering, one for milking and one for slaughtering. Or all in one Also i have seen hot springs and ponds, but no tar pits. How about one that looks like the La Brea Tar Pits.

Just like . wave power plant. I know the wave power plant was already made. I was the one who requested it to him. And was sudgesting the kelp forest to be just like that in that it had things submerged and floating in the water just like the wave power bouys. Heck i have seen seen ships, submarines and other fully water buildings. In coparason to the wave powered one, beach or seaport which are half in the water and half on the land.

I ment like a lot with some kelp, not plantable kelp. Just like wave power plant. Maybe kelp looking down from an bird eye view or even one with a peir, bouy or boat floating over the kelp. Too bad sea otters are too small but it would be cool seeing some of those floating on top of a forest.

Date: 7/8/2005 7:29:02 PM Author: GLENNI ok thats just the most stupid idea ever!!!!!well dont count me in to make those.....quote> What's so stupid about it? There are not many water related items. It would be nice to have more things in the sea.

Ok back with some more. 1. A good looking tidal power turbine. You know poeer from the tidal currents rather than waves going up and down. 2. An Underwater SeaLab (like SeaLab 2020, The Abyss or Fathom) 3. Underwater Kelp Forests or Coral Reefs. (Pictures small enough?) c'mon now, you're exagerating from one extreme to the other. mrbisonm

Ok finally moving my ideas/requests to the correct thread ... 1. Wave Power Plant (note Vlakhaas already started a CSX WFK - Wave Power Generator ) 2. Circus Big Top 3. Launch Arcology 4. Roswell UFO Museum Ok that's all I have for now but i will be back Thanks so much and I love all your guys work. Your the best!
