This thread has been moved from the BAT - Open Discussion to here, to help bring together these two things (The HKABAT Team and The Japanese BAT Threads) that are of a similar interest. Keep in mind though, that the BATs in this thread are not made by HKABAT Team members.  Think of it more as the HKABAT Team hosting these threads. -Jasoncw - May 19th, 2007 While hunting for more custom BATs, I came across this Japanese SimCity 4 BAT website: Sim City Force http://homepage2.nifty.com/kamurai/simcity/index.htm The website seems to be a hugely popular BAT gallery and forums with hundreds upon hundreds of cool images. The pictures of some of the custom projects are jaw-dropping: beautiful temples and pagodas, futuristic archologies, and conspicuously popular railguns and battle mechs. Unfortunately, the language barrier may present a problem for many of us not fluent with Japanese, but some carefully random clicking and guessing on the menu and links will get us around. However, as I cannot read the language, I cannot seem to determine the home source of the images in order to try to download the buildings. It may just be a vast gallery of personal projects, or maybe a compilation of available downloads from another site. The few that offer building/lot downloads sometime use the ZIP format, while others may be in the Japanese LZH compression format (the shareware PowerArchiver 2003 will open LZH archives). The English language version of SimCity may not even support Japanese lots, but it is worth a try. The Holy Grail shines before me onscreen, but I cannot find any download links! Aaaarrrggghhhh!
