  5. Maxis References

    While I surf the web I occasionally find a building in real life that looks just like one of SC4's buildings. I personally think that some of the artists searched google for things like "art deco" and picked buildings they liked to base their own off. Here are some examples I've ran into, if anyone knows of any more, post them! "greater Los Angeles, CA. (near or on Wilshire Blvd.)" and Nichols Manor "Building in Napier" and Kobylanski Accounting (this picture is of the back, so the entrance is not visible) (No Picture) Paris Opera House and the Opera House Here are the pages I found them on: http://jan.ucc.nau.edu/~twp/architecture/artdeco/ http://www.mognw.com/morganstoNZ.html http://www.rentals-paris.com/monsigny.shtml This is probably in the wrong forum, if it is, please move it and take out this message.
  6. BAT Request Thread

    BAT Request Thread Use this thread to request BATs. BAT requests are not permitted anywhere else on Simtropolis. Please read the other requests in this thread before making your own requests, to ensure that your requests haven't already been requested (say that 5 times fast). Formatting: Use the following format when posting requests. An example is shown in the next post, which you can copy and paste to help you get the text formatting. This format will help you clearly and concisely communicate your request, which will make it easier for BATers to browse this thread. BATers are resourceful, but you'll need to provide enough information to help get them started. Provide as much useful information as possible, however, in order to preserve conciseness, use links instead of reposting all of the information in this thread. My example request is shorter than yours may be, but your request shouldn't be any longer than a few paragraphs total. Old BAT Request Threads: With Simtropolis 6.0 comes the elimination of the dreaded page flip bug, a bug in the forum software which caused browsing difficulty in long threads, including the old BAT Request Thread. Threads created in Simtropolis 6.0 do not suffer from the page flip bug, and so a new BAT Request Thread is born. Also, like all of the BAT Request Threads, the last one quickly became a jumbled mess, intimidating, and hard to navigate. To avoid that, this time we'll try using a standardized format, which may improve browsability and encourage BATers to look through this thread for ideas more often. Title of Request (Heading 2) ONE image of your request (required). The image must be 800 x 600 pixels or smaller (but try to use as small of an image as possible while still properly displaying the building). Links to other images (optional) Description: (Bold) Write a short description of what you're requesting. (required) Links to informational websites (reccommended). Links to wikipedia, emporis.com, skyscraperpage.com, Local Live, Google Maps, and flickr.com are especially useful. Why this would be beneficial for the game or community: (Bold) Write a short explanation of why you think this would be good for the game or for the community. Here you make your case for why a BATer should BAT your request. (required) Please note that general BAT requests not relating to one particular building or structure can be made in this thread.

  15. IDS's (mostly) Minnesota BATs

    I think the interior lights specifically could indeed be brighter. I feel like in real life, the smaller the window is the brighter the window looks (idk if this is actually true but it seems to look better when I'm making BATs).
  16. Das Model

    I recognize all four! By starting them, have you been fated to almost finish them and then fall off the face of the earth? What do you plan on doing at ground level for the fourth one? In real life it gets weird down there, plus there are a few other buildings that are part of the complex.
  17. Simtropolis Returns!

    Wonderful! I know I don't post as much as I used to but Simtropolis has always been at the top of my bookmarks and I visit all the time. I went through Simtropolis withdrawal! But that's what happens when you visit a site almost every day for 20 years and it goes down! Even when I was putting together my BAT archives I kept on trying to go to Simtropolis to look up info about my own BATs. So it's very nice to have the site back up even if it will take some work to get everything put back where it belongs. Thanks!!
  18. Would this box require us to write out the full yaml, or would we still be able to leave it blank or just include the dependencies, to have it automatically generated?

    It definitely does look like metal. Once it's in the game I think it would still be convincing as metal, but not as much, because it'd be clear that the metal wasn't reflecting the building's actual surroundings. For all my buildings I model the sidewalk and road around the building, but for this building, because of its small size, most of the facade would just be reflecting the black asphalt, and it wouldn't look like anything. But I think for this building, modeling the sidewalk pavers so that the metal seems like it is reflecting its immediate surroundings would help sell it.
  22. Ok! I'm guessing once the bug is figured out the uploads will be added automatically, but let me know if I need to do anything on my end.
  23. I uploaded a batch of BATs with .yaml files a few days ago and they still don't have the "Install with SC4Pac" button. Did something change or did I do something wrong?
