that sounds like a software rendering / hardware rendering issue.

I might buy later... if I can ask my parents or sister to do so =O

bixel... don't shoot me... but can you do both variations? That new colour scheme actually looks somewhat nice from a distance.

wait... these are exclusive release? Will SC4D receive any of these files anytime soon or will there be an exclusivity period? I hear a lot of people talking about 3dsMax and its benefits over GMax... however no one really addressed or took into consideration his computer... from one of the above posts the computer slows down very fast. nycc06, is it possible to get a computer upgrade or is that somewhat difficult to do or fit into your schedule due to RL budget or time constraints? - Allan Kuan

Thanks for the info. I'll forward my request over then. - Allan Kuan

hello bixel =) Your buildings have always tended to represent the best of Hong Kong architecture imported into SC4... and they are always really really large and realistic, which helps in the development of large high-rises. Now, having said that, lately I haven't noticed a lot of productions being made compatible for CAM (which would increase capacity and stage level). The stage level isn't of huge importance as my region is pushing 4 million; however, the capacity of the buildings isn't as large as I might want it to be. I wish that if you have the time make a few CAM lots for some recent productions as they are good works and CAM users would probably appreciate it as well. =) Thanks, - Allan Kuan

Okay... thanks for the info. - Allan Kuan

Now... this is the first time I've signed in in a while (as I download things through SC4D more nowadays) so this is why my comment on your previous buildings is coming rather late. These aren't very pressing issues so they don't have to be immediately worked on if you have limited time. A few buildings lack a base or a prominent entrance which sort of detracts from their appearance. Examples include Oceana and Eclipse. The Alexander's entrance might want to be improved to make it more "distinct" from the rest of the building. Another nitpick that I have is that the CAAC Bay View has some really white columms between the base and the first half of the building. Is it possible if that is toned down somewhat to grey? Finally, Lincoln Heights (from preview photos) has a roof garden at top, but i can't see how the sims could get up there (lack of access hatch) and if there are barriers to keep them in the confines of the garden. Also, the corner entrance to the building looks a little peculiar, but that might be unavoidable. Otherwise, I really enjoy using many of your tall skyscrapers... the texturing and modeling work om most of them is superb and outstanding. I look forward to seeing the completion of upcoming projects. =) - Allan Kuan

I saw the report... Now having seen the new images, I'm eager to ask a few extra questions: A) Do bus terminals serve one route or many routes? I don't think it'd be a good idea to have 20 of them to simulate a large terminus. Also... images 7 and 8 show a bus ready to "hit the curb" while going onto the street. B) The first picture has a seriously oversized traffic destination sign, which reduced realism. It'd be better if it was at 1/2 height. C) The budget panel is clean and simple. Some colour (red and green) might make things easier to see however. Otherwise things are looking really good. - Allan Kuan

odd... that has never happened to me before =O At least there was sort of a workaround. Sadly I'm guessing that the city that you tried to save was completely lost. - Allan Kuan
