Hey, I was looking in the SC3K Resources Club and found two download links for real life cities from Florida (not miami, but Pensacola, St Petersburg, and Tampa), hope this helps.

Hey Vetinaris, haven't seen you in a while, hopefully everything is going well.

As I mentioned in my latest post, recently, user @thiekus found several old screenshots from different CD demos published in 1998 for SC3K. In this thread, I will try my best to point the differences from those screenshots and what we got in the final game. I will look into each screenshot in a separate post for the sake of time and space. The screenshots in question (all credits go to @thiekus for finding these!): Terrain and Trees This one is pretty obvious. The ground used to be more bright, and the trees were darker. Hospital The hospital is largely unchanged, the trees were a little darker and the upper green windows used to be brighter. Library The library used to have different lighting and one additional tree in the back. Also, the mast was added in the final version. School The school was completely overhauled in the final version. Large Park The 3x3 park was also overhauled, but the statue in the middle stayed. Fire Station We get a little glimpse of the fire station. Note changes to the trees, firetrucks, roof, and central windows. Zoo The zoo was mostly unchanged, note the trees. City Hall The City Hall had alot of changes in the final version. Unchanged Zoned Buildings There are several zoned buildings that appear the same in the final version. Unknown Buildings These buildings don't appear in the final game. Carousel The 1x1 carousel used to be a separate park. In the final version it is used in the theme park reward. Amalgamated Amalgamation Inc Some details were added to this building in the final version. Unknown 1x1 C$ This building is technically used in the final version, but as an abandoned tile.

- For the final screenshot, I noticed the following things... 1: Unused 2x2 building we've seen before and discussed in previous screenshots. 2: Unused 2x2 building probably a commercial building of some sort. 3: Unused 3x3 building, which resembles a resort or a small hotel. 4: Unused 1x1 commercial building, while it is not in the final game, we can see a trace of it in the main menu, hiding in plain sight. Additionally, across the street from it is an unknown 2x2 residential villa, which does not appear in the final game. 5: This is an unused 3x3 structure, which I am pretty sure was the old version of the museum, I know this because when the education adviser asks for to build museums, it appears as a placeholder image. 6: This is 1x1 zone that does not appear in the final game, it shows a bulldozer sweeping a black pile of some sort, maybe garbage? 7: This is the church we mentioned in the previous screenshots. 8: This is an unused 1x1 residential house, not seen in any other screenshots. 9: This is a 2x2 residential villa, not seen in the final game. 10: Another 2x2 residential house, not present in the final game. 11: This is a 1x1 residential zone, which looks like a fancy gate of some sort. 12: This is an unknown 2x2 building, not seen in other screenshots. Additional notes: We can see that the roads were darker and did not have the annoying crosswalks that were present in the final game. The 1x1 fountain residential tile used to look darker. The old tree models are very potent in this screenshot. We can also see the old 3x3 park version we mentioned earlier on top right corner.

This is a 3x3 BAT, meant to be used as a detail/park. It includes two versions, one with Japanese buses, and one with the vanilla SC3K buses. It is loosely based on the Bus Station from the Rockport (Need for Speed: Most Wanted 2005) To use, simply copy the downloaded file into Simcity3000/buildings folder.-

This is a 2x2 and 3x3 farm buildings, based on the farms with the same name from the game Dave the Diver (2023), meant to be used in any tileset. The normal land farm come out pretty nice, but the fish farm looks awkward ingame, and I think I should have simply painted the surface instead of placing an entire section over the surface. To use, simply copy the downloaded file into Simcity3000/buildings folder.-

This is a 2x2 residential building, meant to be used in any tileset you like. It is loosely based on the house of the same name from the movie Over The Hedge (2006), located in the fictional El Rancho Camelot, a newly built housing community. To use, simply copy the downloaded file into Simcity3000/buildings folder. - Versions: Gladys Sharp's House.bld: The intended use form with trees around it. Gladys Sharp's House V1.bld: Same as first but with the entire base of the house painted in red. Gladys Sharp's House.bld (less trees): This is the same as the first version, but doesn't include the vast trees, vegetation, and the chimney.-

This is a 2x2 office building, meant to be used as a commercial building in any tileset. It is not based on anything in real life, but based on an old building I made in Terraria back in 2018 (see screenshot). To use, simply copy the downloaded file into Simcity3000/buildings folder.^ Original Pic Name: Screenshot 2026-01-31042404.png - Thought Process: It is late at night, and I am scrolling through some old screenshots from 2017. I stumbled upon this old screenshot of a bank type building I made in an online terraria server, so I decided it is probably worth a shot in BAT. The original iteration was detailed, but looked off. In comes ingame testing, and my suspicion was confirmed, the building dwarfed everything around it. Phase 2, made the building more unfaithful to the original concept, but made it more fitting for in game use. Phase 3, made a second version, because why not.-

I made this in order to not spam the working on thread. Here is a collection of recent stuff I consider somewhat good, sharp viewers may spot a few parks I haven't released yet, I am planning them to pack them in one file. You can also suggest buildings in here that I can probably give a shot . Cheers!

Version 1.0.1
26 Downloads
This is a 3x3 BAT, meant to be used as a park/landmark, preferably in mountainous terrain. This is loosely inspired by the Corvin Castle, a Gothic-Renaissance castle located in Hunedoara, Romania. This is a unique creation, and uses custom textures, props, and details. I've hid a little screen somewhere in the castle, and it is not the black van coming from the rear entrance, whatever is going on there? is this really a castle?! To use, simply copy the downloaded file into Simcity3000/buildings folder.- 2 Comments
