Thank you very much! I am a huge fan of the Shenzhen buildings and find them incredibly beautiful. You have done a great job thus far, and I'm looking forward to more great releases! Good luck with the TV Tower and the Library / Music Hall! ;D
I just love the effort and care you put into the nightlighting...makes it so much more
I have been following your creations for a long time and have become a collector of them. The Children's Palace is yet another great addition to an already wonderful series. Like Cal said the nightlighting is truly exceptional beautiful.
PS: you have to change the anti-aliasing settings of your graphics card a bit to get rid of the stripes on the building as seen in your picture.
Thanks Serkanner, I have been try to solve that problem for so long...finaly somebody figure it out.

anyone know if there is a fsh file editor out there that allows you to move the fsh image directly on the models? Cuz i am having problem exporting the cctv, the order of the fsh image just messed up, so i wonder is there something that could fix it.
dmscopio: iLive's Reader does have a tool for affecting the FSH skin on S3D files, but with a complicated BAT like that, it would be rather difficult. Mainly, it's just used by the transit modding community for applying transit textures to puzzle pieces. You could sort out which FSH files are placed where on the model quite easily, though.
Also, are you using 3ds Max, GMAX/BAT, or another program entirely? If you are using GMAX/BAT, do you have the patch for it? Without it, textures tend to get really messed up occasionally.
If you have a pic of the model with the FSH files messed up, that could help in diagnosing the problem.
Hope that helps.

How amazing would it be to attend a concert 450m in the air, stunning.
wonderful!But the CCTV tower is too bright,can you improve this?
When you roll the mouse wheel up and down thats a very interesting BAT, getting thinner than fatter. Nice job.

Any idea at the minute about possible release date??
This stadium is really huge, I've been there several times, even if I'm NOT a fan of Bavaria Munich :thumbsdown: Actually I hate that club, but however, they've got a nice stadium ^^
I think the roof-tiles should be many more, or am I wrong?
BTW: Have fun with the nightlight :D Please create a version for 1860 Munich too, cause they are usin' this stadium aswell.
wow, that stadium is awesome! It must take forever to render!
There is no doubt that you are the best when it comes to stadiums and arenas hands down. This latest stadium looks to be another winner, very, very nice. i like it a lot and look forward to it's release.

I just wanted to congratulate you for your excellent execution of the Allianz Arena. Though I can't actually neither stand FC Bayern Munich nor the stadium itself (been there once and everything was VERY chaotic!!!) you did a great job there, even nightlights are just like in RL.
Any chance you may tackle the HSH Nordbank Arena (former AOL Arena), Hamburg's football stadium? though a bit smaller and not of so fancy design, it's definatly one of the finest stadiums in europe... (nah, just kidding, don't want to request anything $%Grinno$% )
DM that is a really great looking new stadium great job :thumbsup:
thanks yoder, praiodan and patfirefghtr! I been working on something different lately, a brand new stadium. It is the New Anfield stadium. Some of you may notice there is already a new anfield stadium out there. but thats the old plan before the take over of Tom Hick and George Gillett.

Anyway, more update will come shortly. Any is comment appreciated.
oooooh wow that is loooking real good... the windows are a tad bit on the green side though
it's AWESOME *big fan cooming alert !!* Love it, you're a killer, as patfirefghtr said maybe the window are a tad to green ?
I loved your old version of New Anfield (using it in my capital), it was very original.
This new New Anfield is of somewhat real fancy design and kind of reminds me more of american stadiums than of a modern european football stadium. Anyways, this will be very interesting to follow...
A question concerning the roof of the real structure, just wondered: can it be closed (like Amsterdam ArenA oder the Arena auf Schalke/Veltinsarena)? Looks like a bit to me that way.
Oh, and some off-topic, sorry, just can't resist ;D
I love following what's going on in the Premier League, though, I don't like that multi-billionaires are buying the clubs (esp. Chelsea stinks, no offence!).
On the other hand, the many superstars that are around the league make the played football there quite attractive to follow (I loved to watch Arsenal's quick and direct combinations. I wonder how they can compensate the gone Henry! But also ManU's style was very impressing last year with an phenomenal Ronaldo).
I guess with Torres the Reds made a good deal, okay, 36.000.000 € is quite a bit, but should be worth such a great striker. I look forward to how he will harmonize with Gerrard, Alonso etc ;D
thanks patfirefght, nova vesfalo and praiodan.as you nay have notice, there are no texture in the model yet, including the glass, so don't worry, it will not be this green when it is finished. as for roof question, i don't think it is it closable, it didn't mentioned in the official plan, but thats definitely a great idea.
@Praiodan, i don't mind those billionaire buying football teams as long as they willing to do what is best for the club and the fans. I agree with you on Chelsea. Chelsea's owner brought 2 new super star player against the will of the manager and players, eventually costing their premiership title. Torres is a good signing for liverpool but i don't expect him being the only solution to the offensive line, especially on his first season in liverpool. I still think the performances from players like Gerrard, Carregher, Pennant, and Riise are the key to win the title. And hopefully, Torres will merge into the team as time go by.

Stunning work as always. The green glass looks a lot better now and overall the stadium looks fabulous. Can't wait to download the finished product
thank you all so much for the comments!right now the model itself is finished, maybe some fine tunning on the details and texture and then finish the night light. I've been busy with RL lately and only have time to work on it during the weekend. So if everything goes as planned, it should be finished next week. compare to the Allianz, it has less polygons and not as complex, so faster to render/export too. Anyway, I am glad that you all like it.
Dmscopio-your stadiums and designs continue to amaze me. its a shame i can only use a few of your stadiums in my city (can't have 4 soccer teams, can we?). This new one is just as amazing. could you perhaps make an american football version?
All the stadiums that you made are a masterpieces.
gorgeous work :o &apls
Looks like another masterpiece! Is English football very popular in China?
Simply Brilliant... &apls

Kitsune, can u tell me which file you try to download? the filexoom server is down and i will upload the file to a new server later.
TVCC, Beijing, China/电视文化中心 , Thanks!
Hi~ I'm your fan. I love your B.A.T file and your project.
well... I hope you will not take it amiss, if I ask you such a thing.
I hope to download CCTV file. But I can't download. (I don't know... how to use filexoom... I register filexoom...But...)
And then.. Can you upload CCTV file to sc4devotion.com or Simtropolis.com ?? (I'm so sorry..)
P.S sorry... I can't speak english well...
Hi Kitsune and ssin,
Thank you for your support. CCTV and TVCC will be uploaded to the LEX soon. Barby from the BSC is doing some modding on them and make a CAM version of the CCTV and TVCC, hopefully she will upload them by this week, so keep your eyes on the exchange site.
New Anfield might be the best stadium I have ever seen BATted. Awesome work!!

The tower looks awesome. How far along on this are you?
Robin :thumbsup:
BOC looks cool. I think it would be a nice feature to add a Tom Cruise model and let it jump from the rooftop, wouldn't it?
The New Anfield model looks fantastic. The only thing that bugs me a little is that the roof looks a tad too "solid", as if it was made out of a single piece. Some very subtle, but still visible seams that show it's made out of precise sheets of metal (at the metal part) and probably some roof junk on the grey parts (even if there is absolutely no roof junk on the real building) would make it a bit more lively.

If there is no roof junk on the actaully real building, then why add it to this BAT, I think it would ruin the look of what is a fabulous stadium and BAT
Well, because that fabulous BAT looks way too pristine. If it's not roofjunk, then it's some dust and water puddles that have created over the time. ;)

Yes, totally agree with that. I'm not keen on the the 'not enough roof junk' thing, myself. A city has a whole mix of buildings, some will have roofjunk, some will be plain, some will be new and clean, some will be old and grungy. The key thing is the mix across the whole city, not any individual building.
Looking at the design of the stadium, roofjunk would ruin its clean lines completely compromising the design. This is a fantastic model of an incredible new stadium - athough I think the previous design was more appropriate as a new Anfield.
I don't have any reference on the roof material of New Anfield since the stadium construction is not started yet. I already put in some sort of filters for ventilation on the lower roof, so i don't think it needs another sets of roof junks. but thanks for the suggestion, Andreas.
And the BOC model is done, in fact it was done a while ago, i just don't have time to finish it up for the lighting part. so i will try to find some night picture of this tower first, and come up with nitelite for it. thanks guys!
Well, actually, my comment about the roofjunk was a general suggestion. As I said before, the slightly odd thing is that the whole roof seems to be made of one piece, which is obviously not the case. You can model it like this in an architectural model, but personally, I think it looks a tad artificial - it's too perfect. ;)
I see what what you meant now, Andreas. I can try a different texture, perhaps a tile set and see how it looks.
You rock... that tower is jawdropping gorgeous...still staring at it. :o
shanghai!!! :) i've seen that building so many times, and it looks very accurate! the anfield looks amazing! i love the textures, great job :D

if you look at the back of the tower there is some king of entry for the parking lot and passenger drop off/pick up area. I will try to find a picture later.
I know I rarely post on NHP projects, but that is because I know its good and I dont want people to think I am spamming. That model of the BoC is simply awesome, I just gotta have it right now!! Dms, you are one of the best RL to SC4 modellers I have ever seen. Keep up the great work!

Thanks everyone, I am currently looking for someone to helpp me with modding the files....who know how to mod with PIM_X and creating CAM files. BarbyW have agreed to help me out and have done great jobs, but I felt bad putting all the works for her.
Hey DM, what files do you need modded? I can't create CAMlots, (only BSC members can for the time being) but I can do most anything else. :)
hey Travis, thanks alot for the offer. it is the BoC tower and the New Anfield Stadium, and also another new one(Pearl River Tower) in the near future. Do you have msn messenger? I can send it to you over MSNM. My email is: dmscopio@msn.com thanks~!

Pathfirefghtr:no, i just don't have time for that at the moment....i will make a new blog later cuz the current one was blocked in china, and i got lots of complains from the simcity.cn site. then i will also find a new host server at that point. anyway, thanks for those links, my friend.
That is unbelievable. What kind of complaints did you receive? And why was it blocked? :thumbsdown:
The only one I can imagine is that you were modeling too well....making the maxis ones look bad, I wish you very good luck on finding a new host site though ;D
yep, yoman, thats the only explanation i can think of too. keep up the great work, we support you! %confuso
No no no, people in simcity.cn complain about not being able to visit my blog website because it was blocked. I don't why, but seems all the site hosted in Blog Spot was blocked from China. Sorry for the confusion~~ :P

Ah, okay, that makes sense. :P I initially thought that SimCity China may have had copyright issues or something like that, which would have been far-fetched. :P

as you can see the hotel blend in with the beach and then the water. I design it just like the beach lot in game. what do you think?

maybe have two lots, one with an attached beach and then one that would allow it to be placed in a town/city setting.

Hum the roof junks...there should be some roof junks right? or should it.....what do you think?the roof is not a flat surface so it is impossible for anyone to walk on, but still roof junks can still be placed up there. I am just going to throw the question to you guys see what you think.
I think it looks very beautiful without roofjunk.
Can you pleas show a pic from the other side of the building?
No roof junk, I think it would ruin the look of the building
I really don't understand the desire for roof junk, we do now have more advanced ways of heating/cooling a building as well as being able to hide/cover pipework etc etc
I will have to go with belfastuniguy on this one.... it's like... would the designers not find a way to keep the building as intact to the original design as possible, or would they not consider that junk would clutter the building? (if that makes sense)
But I think you will hear it from both sides on this issues, so the decision is ultimately yours. Your fans will support you no matter what!
An incredible BAT &apls &apls
Personally I think that it should stay as it is without junk. Its distinctive enough as it is and doesn't
need unnecessary "junk". It would probably even distract your eye from all the wonderful details
you already have. - thats my 2p worth ;D
Either way the decision is yours and I shall eagerly wait its upload :thumbsup:

You've certainly created a beautiful model in this wonderful hotel. It is surely going to be a joy to have in any city!
As beautiful as it is, however; I really believe you need to put some roof junk on it. The roof as it is right now is just too plain and "one dimentional." Even the real life picture shows a roof "shed" in the middle of the roof as well as some vent pipes. I truly believe it would make the roof look better.
Regards,
Gary
you guys all make good points here. i am trying to figure a way to give "another dimension" to the roof yet not being distractive. I am thinking doing the same kind of vet filter/fans in the new anfield:

it is not "roof junks" but do the same task...i think that might work.
Those non-"roof junks" roof junks may be the right idea! And either way, I can't wait to see what it looks like!
yeah I would be happy to see those on the new hotel, they serve a purpose but also don't take away from the clean modern look of the building.

Hey Dms, awesome work lately!!
For this building where you have circled in red... I think the best thing for an area such as this would be people, tables, flower pots, etc. In many stadiums like this the "roof" is actually part of the terrace in which people use to walk around and find their section or box. I think it would be very good if you could add some people, benchs, etc. for this area.
Gosh....has it been this long? 120 days?but anyway, i am back to the scene. I am sure a lot of been going on with NHP team, and of course a lot of changes happened in my RL over the pass few months. But i am glad that i am back, and with new projects!
anyway first of all, i just have my personal website finished: www.davidluart.com (http://142.179.100.2/davidluart/) (reconfiguring the IP address, need 24-72 hours to take effects....check back later), in the download section, you can have exclusive download of my latest BATs creations, which also includes the New Anfield.
Second news is that i got some new BAT project coming, such as the original anfield stadium, Guangzhou Pearl River Tower, and more. Some teaser images have been showed on my website and i will be back with more info.
Sweeeeeeeeeet your back Dm this is awesome!!! I cant wait for your site to go live and will there be the older stuff for download to??? I mean like from the Shezen series as there where some that are not on ST but was on your old site... I think one was the city hall if I am not mistaken??

Hey dms ! Good to see you back
Good to see everyone again! And thank you for those who has signed my guest book, your comments are very encouraging. Also if you have any request ie, re-release some of my older BATs please post here or in the guest book. As requested, the Shenzhen City Hall will be available on the site later. The reason of having a website is that there is no file size limited for the BATs files, easier management and faster upload speed. And also I can share some of my other works such as paintings, logo design and architecture with you guys.
Anyway, thanks for the warm welcome. Make me feel like back to home again. ;)

as promised, here is one of the new project. The tower is located in shenzhen(where i live right now), it is called the SZ world Trade Center, it is actually the headquarter of the China Merchants Bank, one of the biggest banks in China.

Oooo...pretty... ;D
can you release a verison without the graduation day hat?
Pat, I will just release one version as it it because it is suppose to be a recreation of the original building. Beside, i think the tower will be too boring without the "graduation hat". However, there are plenty of buildings in here might interest you:

this one looks like the SZWTC without the hat, might be something you looking at?
anyway, I just wondering is there any modders in the team? it is been a long time since i make a mod for my bats and i almost forgot how to do it again. So any modders in the team willing to offer me help on modding my bats?

Ha, maybe you can try dial that number and see if anyone will ask you to rent an office in that building.
^exactly what I was wondering. Is some sort of advertisement? Adress? Company? Anyway, yes, i do like that building. Of course, i like this one too. Good work.
Glad that you like it, i was actually thinking about BATing it, now i make it in my to-do list. ;)
sorry for trouble ,where I can download this bat ?http://img404.imageshack.us/img404/1253/newcityjan1800119061812lk9.png

Sorry mate, this BAT is not ready yet. Please be patient and check back again here or in davidluart.com in the near future.
谢谢你的回答，个人觉得图中这个版本的跑道比新的好看些，不知道有没有这个版本的下载？

If you give the information like that, many people won't find it. Those textures are part of BSC Textures Vol2 Megapack, and can be found here - http://sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=638
That's why I posted an image on my previous post, one page back. ;)
Sorry about that-I was a bit short for time &mmm
Anyways,i hope you do get round to uploading the running track :thumbsup:
Thanks alot Jayo and Rayden! Thats the texture i am missing. I will download it and release a version with running track later.
Oh you're back! can't wait for new surprises ;D

I was told that the color of the glass texture is too dark, anyone else agrees on that?
I think its fine. good roof junk :thumbsup:
Indeed, to me the glass looks fine. And so does the rest of the building! I particularly like the reflection, well done. The night lighting however does not look convincing to me at this point.

Personally , i like the color very much &apls Great work :thumbsup:
thanks everybody! i will keep the color this way, i will also try my best to make the nitelite looks better. thanks!
SZ WTC looks great!! I like the textures on the glass.

dm that is wonderful!!!!
Just to let you know:
I had to reLOT the base of the tower... there were some texture errors that needed fixing. However, the lot is the same as the original.
Modding's coming along nicely. It's taking a while, since I'm a bit busy at times.

Oh, don't be silly M4346, i will send you and SA a PM later about modding the tower and the hotel. it would be great to have more modder in the team.
SA: the lot error maybe caused by the transit enable tiles, don't worry just do whatever needed to do, and take your time. maybe i can announce the Pearl River Tower is coming soon at the website.

It was a LE glitch, it seems as if the overlay became the base texture for some reason. It's fixed now anyway.
EDIT: Now, I ran your building through PIM-X... and it gave me 4529 jobs for CO$$$... :P
Definitely a stage 8. :P
sounds great, you can give me the download link once you finish it.
Well, I was going to forward it to M so he could work his magic on the commercial lot. :P
What do you think?
for sure, this is what i call team work &apls
I don't know if SA wants me to re-lot the Functional LM and LM, but here's what I've done thus far with the CO$$$8 growable.
I'll also create a CAMeLOT that will look the same as this one.
Any comments / suggestions?

If the LOT is fine - and if SA wants to keep his LM lots' layout as is - then I can package it (Readme, Installer, etc.) and have it sent to the scrutineers. By the way, is it
NHP DMS Pearl River Tower?
Actually, M, feel free to re-LOT the LMs. If you want to. :P
The lots that were done for the LMs were done by dmscopio, so I didn't make any changes to them. :P
Nice pics and nice lots, though.
The LMs are TE'd for one-ways, I'll wait to hear from DMS about them then. :)
And thanks. :P

this is wonderful M, i definitively pick your version instead of my own. what you think, SA?
I will wait for you two finish the modding, please also include all the dependencies packages, i don't think i got them all since i work on my new computer now.
Anyway, great job guys! i will post those picture on my web page as a preview of the NHP PRT.

QuotePearl River Tower is a skyscraper that is under construction at the junction of Jinsui Road/Zhujiang Avenue West, Tianhe District, Guangzhou, China. The lead architect is Gordon Gill: formerly of the Chicago office of Skidmore, Owings and Merrill and now partner in the firm Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture. It will be 309.6 metres tall with 69 floors and a total floor area of 212,165 m².
Designed by Skidmore, Owings and Merrill, construction started in 2006 and completion is planned for autumn 2009. It is intended for office use and will be occupied by the China National Tobacco Corporation.
The building is being designed with energy conservation in mind, including wind turbines and solar, humidity and rainwater collectors and arguably will be one of the most environmentally friendly buildings in the world. Indeed, it is intended that the systems will generate more energy than operation of the building will use. Source: <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pearl River Tower">Wikipedia</a>
Included are four LOTs: A functional CO$$$ Landmark, an eye-candy Landmark, a CO$$$8 and a CAMeLOT CO$$$10 lot. Keep only the LOTs most relevant to you, and remember that you need the CAM installed to use the CAMeLOT.

I modded the LOTs as outlined above, with the growable(s) [CO$$8 and CAM CO$$9] and eye-candy landmark being 8x4 and decorated, and the functional CO$$ LM lot 6x3.
Just packaging and "prettification" left. ;)
I like it, perhaps you should put some people in the lot tho, it looks abit desolate at the moment.
There are people in the LOT, trust me, I usually put too many for that matter. :P
The photo was just taken at "night" (you know, time waits for no man...)
EDIT:
Here are some more:
The people don't show up, and those that you do see are the "night people". It does have quite a few people during the day.

check it out, suggestions are welcome. more update coming soon.
oooh my wow there Dm that is simply stunning work!!! I love the Haywood and also the new tower there, great job on both of those so far... One thought though from me is in that center area between the 2 buildings are you going to add in a plaza area at per chance and if you do I think some large area of water effect would sit well there... That is my thoughts for that open space...
Thanks for the suggestion, Pat. The center plaza is still untouched right now, more details will be put in definitely. there are a lot of possibilities for that area, i am thinking some flora, ground lighting, and out door coffee shops. a fountain would be nice also. it is pretty open at this moment, so suggestions are welcome. Also i am searching for ideas for those roof, i am thinking creating some roof gardens, green houses, and so, instead of traditional roof junks. what do you think?
That is one impressive building dm :thumbsup:
Look forward to more development
Here's a first draft of the Heywood v2, please tell me if you like it. I still have to add some additional lamps and people to it, but the basic lay-out is there.

Casper, the new lot looks great, but i do have one suggestion. can you make the feel of it more "tropical" or "coastal" because it suppose to be a beach resort hotel. maybe you can use some palm trees, and some beach sand textures. you can even make a version that the hotel sit on top of the beach, like an earlier version i made:
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg404.imageshack.us%2Fimg404%2F1253%2Fnewcityjan1800119061812lk9.png&hash=805f7d23cd6b30b3f3f8ba5afb53a76e13db648c)
what do you guys think?
one more thing, did you create a functional plopable or it is just an eye candy landmark? anyway, thank you.
I had thought about that myself too, I could probably make two versions of the lot; one for people who wish to use it on beaches and one for those people who would enjoy building it inland. I am/have modding/modded it to be a functional landmark, but one issue that could arise with the beachside version is that modding it to be functional is, albeit possible, not wanted, as in order to provide road access to it, you would need to build streets/roads over your beaches, so it would have to be modded as a park so it doesn't need road access.
Greetings,
Casper
when this lot can be released?
gaotingguxiu: did you meant the anfield stadium? The model is sent to M4346 for lotting and modding, i haven't heard from M4346 yet, maybe still on the trip to US right now. so just be patient.
meanwhile, some new progress on the tower, and i am gonna call it "the New Horizon Tower" as a tribute to the team:

let me know what you think, cheers!
DM all I got to say oooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!! NHP Tower top is perfect and so is the new towers they are turning out just so sweet!!! Are there any plans to have any skylights on the base area?
thanks Pat, there is no plan for the base area yet. i am still looking for inspiration for it, perhaps you can give me some idea.
i think for the base a large flattened elipsoid dome would look quite cool, but then again it would have to be "just right" to fit lol
mightygoose: yes, that could be one option, i am thinking about putting a shopping mall as the base complex, similar to the SWFC. I will keep searching for ideas for it.
OMG! Can't wait to see those towers released!! How long do you think it will take for the New Horizon Tower to be released? I'm redoing one of my cities and it would be perfect as centre-piece =p

next just need someone to Mod it. However, all the modders seems are all busy with RL at the moment. the other two buildings(Anfield and Heywood 2) are ready to be released, just need to be moded. So I am asking anyone else here can offer me helps on modding these files(the Anfield, Heywood2, and the New Horizon Tower)? all i need is just plopable(CAM and None CAM) version, and growable version(CAM and None CAM). And also I just curious is there an easier way to create plopable with some kind of tool? anyway, hope someone here can help. Cheers!
David, I would be willing to mod and lot Heywood 2 and any other buildings, but I do not have the time or the necessary experience (I believe) to lot Anfield... :-[
M4346 can take over the lotting for the Heywood from me, I'm quite stuck on the tropical theme, as I'm not used to those &mmm
that is ok, I just need someone do the modding, i can make the lot myself. the Anfield does't have to be a functional landmark, so i am thinking just release it as a landmark. now just need help modding the NHT and Heywood 2. But anyway, thank you both for the effort.
M, I will send you the link for downloading the heywood 2 model and the NHT later. Thanks!

any comment?
Those towers are looking good there - they are a real "stand out" landmark.
And as for Anfield - very nicely done. It's great to see more English football stadiums being made. I'll be downloading it for sure. Do you take on requests for other English stadiums? There is one I have in mind ;)

Gee, can't think what one that would be... :D
Can't say I've visited here before, but had a quick browse and your works great. I like the towers above (name?) and the one a page back (New Horizon Tower I think you called it).
lovely base on those towers all it needs is some roof stuff, plants, people and possibly a large advitisment and other stuff

i know what you have in mind. is it the home ground of west ham united, the Upton Park? :P
I guess my avatar was a big clue!!
Yes, a BAT of Upton Park would be the thing I'd like to see most in SC4. I guess there is a lot of work involved in batting a stadium, but if you are ever thinking of doing another one then Upton Park is a great example of a typical English football stadium where the club have tried to modernise the stadium by adding to the old style stands.
paroch, after I finish the twin tower project i can try batting the Upton park. it would be best if you could find me some pictures of the stadium because i am not too familiar with it.
These towers are looking really good now. Looking forward to the final result... ;)
Hey David,
well, thank you. I will find some pictures and email them to you. I will be at Upton Park on Saturday for the first game of this season. If you need any close up pictures let me know as I go to all of West Ham's games at Upton Park.
Regards,
Paul
Those towers are amazing ! &apls You definitely have a unique style with your works and I am looking forward to seeing how this turns out! &apls
these are great!
but I can't escape the feeling that taller one should be also "fatter", not just taller to preserve harmony of the composition
will there be a Dragon "screen" in the middle of stairs?
Heywood2, New Horizon Tower and the new twin tower(Oriental Emerald Tower) has been released:

it is still on the early stage as you can see.
Paroch, can you get me some picture from different angles outside of the stadium? especially the east facade, i just can't find any pictures of it from the net....thanks.
waow very good I like it &apls &apls
Oh My God!!!!!
David - that is truly amazing. I have to say that you have done an amazingly good re-creation, I can even see the bit where the entrance door I go in by would be ;) You say it is early stages - but I have to say that it looks 80-90% complete to me.
My next visit to Upton Park is Saturday 20th September. I will make sure that I take my camera with me and get plenty of pictures of the East Stand. I was there on Saturday for a 4-1 victory but was not sure which pictures you would need.
I will try and find some pictures on line in the meantime. If you need anything else from me, just say.

David,
The Live Map picture must be over a year old because there is now a HUGE advertisement on the roof of the East Stand see here. (http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3280/2399080031_aa33ec7eac.jpg?v=0) I'll leave it to you to decide whether to include this - I guess it may look a bit artificial in game.

I have to agree, that looks awesome.

Robin :thumbsup:
David,
This has been the bat I have been waiting for on SC4 for sooooo long. I love what you are doing with my beloved Boleyn Ground.
One thing you may want to consider for added realism........
The gap between the edge of the pitch and the East Stand is much bigger than the gap between the pitch and the West Stand. The grass goes all the way but the pitch is not in the centre. The reason for this is that when they built the new West Stand they moved the pitch about 5-10 metres westwards. The plan was to demolish the old East Stand and completed the four sides of the ground with modern stands that totally enclosed the pitch. The club ran out of money and that part of the project has never developed. I guess your pitch position looks nicer and makes more sense. So the choice is yours. Sensible position where you have it now, or RL position by making th pitch off-centre and move towards the West Stand. Minor point and I respect your decision.
This is looking better than I could have imagined David - I am VERY impressed.
Thanks,
Paul
Paul, thank for pointing that out, i will look into the real pictures to find the exact position of the pitch.
I've considered trying to make Upton Park a number of times, but have always backed away from it as being a project that's too big for me. It's really great to see that the stadium is going to make it into the game and I have to say you've made a fantastic job of it.
This stadium is very fine &apls
David, this is a very fine stadium creation of yours and though I rather consider me a gooner (ok it's not really being a fan of Arsenal, but actually of their playing style, which often is just awesome - recently watched the match against Newcastle. Heck, that was great...) I guess this could find a way into one of my cities as well ;D
Wow, very nice stadium. &apls

The complex is also very good. One question though: will you release it as a stand-alone bat, or as several different props? I know that I would prefer the later (for more flexible lotting if you are into selfmade lots ;D )
emilin: yes, the model are rendered and exported sparatly in three models. you can create props with these models to make your own lots.

This looks very good already I think, though unfortuatly I guess I will never come around to use it in my cities (just a tad too extravagant and big for my personal taste, considering the size of my cities). If you ever come around to create a "smaller" and rather unspectacular (well, up to 60.000 seats :D) stadium, might I throw in the Volksparkstadion (officially called HSH Nordbank Arena, former AOL Arena, but it will always be the Volksparkstadion for Hamburg fans like me :P) in Hamburg as an inspiration? $%Grinno$%
But let me come back to he actual topic, which is the FNB... I was just wondering, from which materials you're working from, as I seem to get quite differing renderings of it when I google for FNB Stadium. You have any special source?

Well, is grammar what cares more for me, it doesn't come on the dictionary ::). And this stadium is incredible. I think that I'm not going to put it in my city (sorry, but there is a overbooking of stadiums and arenas in Mosman, one of them the New Andfield ;) ).

Of course ;)
Your stadium is perfect
Unbelievable...
(oh yeah, expect the special update soon! :))
¡Great! Thank you very much for the FLOG Clubhouse Dmscoopio. Now I can start doing my new golf course... :)
Once again you leave me speechless with your unbelievable talent for detail &apls I cannot wait until I can get my hands on that new stadium, I have all the stadiums you've made so far, in fact, I have all of your BATs you've released so far :thumbsup: Keep up the fantastic work my friend :thumbsup:
david simply stunning there wow!!! BTW have you had any luck in recovering any of your older stuff from the shenzen series?
Everyone, I just wanna say thank you for your support. Been busy with school works lately, try to find some more time to do the bats. It is been 2 years since my first bat released, and i am glad that i learned so much and have made so many friends in the simcity communities over the last two years.
I hope you all enjoy playing around with my bats, and you are always welcome to share the pictures here. I will have the update about my new projects here regularly.
emilin: yes, the lot is huge, it is 18x18...thanks for dropping by again.
jacqulina; Thank you!
art128: good to know you're using it, hope you can show me some picture in the near future.
Simpson: Thank for the kind words, hope you enjoy it.
CarmineHilton: Hope you installed the SC4 again, looking forwards to see your CJ updates.
Engorn: As promise, you can play around with the FLOG clubhouse now. Good luck with the golf course.
blade2k5: Thanks for being a loyal fans, my friend! your support is important to me. Take care, my friend.
Pat: Thanks, you can get the old shenzhen series in the simtropolis... i don't have plan putting them on my site at the moment, that would require too many space for the server. Sorry about that.

Can anyone point me to the prop pack that contains the SZ music and library hall?
Dmscopio, can you upload your university pack 1 to the LEX? Also, when I downloaded your university stadium, I thought there was going to be a track in it, since you had posted a pic of it with a track. If you have the file for that version, could you send it to me, please? My hopes fell when I downloaded the University Sports Pack 1. &mmm

Sorry to inform you that the track version of the university stadium is lost because i move to a new computer long time ago. And i lost the texture package with the track texture as well...sorry about that. i do remember someone pointed out the download link of that texture pack in here, you can have search on this topic.

One question David. Are going to make it transit enabled for road only or for avenues too? Just to know... ;)
Engorn: I only make it road transit enable, i did not make an avenue transit enable version because i dont have the avenue texture in LE. I think the road version is good for now...

no, the new building is not finished yet, but here is the progress. There is already different version of it, because the "client" of the project keep changing the requirement. However, i think this one is the final design now.
That looks great! You were right when you mentioned it looks a lot like Guangzhou twin towers. &apls &apls :thumbsup: Good job.
Looking fabulous overall:)
Though the connection section in the middle does look a touch odd. The window frame looks out of alignment with the others around it, prob why is looks odd. &mmm
As Barney Stinson will say: "Aaaaawsome!"
Looking very good i really like it
Are you doing that crazy theme park near the Tokyo Dome? If so, I can't wait to see how you recreate it!
iamgoingtoeatyou: You mean the LaQua Park? Nah, I am creating something similar, an original design. it is more fun for me to have my own design, however, i draw reference from the LaQua Park.

Hi,
This new project is really sensational. You meet very well the curves of the Guggenheim. But perhaps you will need this for textures
Quote from: jmyers2043 on February 19, 2009, 08:26:50 PM
Hello Orange-0-
It appears that you are having a little difficulty with the white texture for your church. There is a lot of glow and you've lost all the texture detail.
One this to keep in mind with the in game white is that the Maxis buildings are not bright white. To test this you can get a screen grab of some of the Maxis white buildings and then use the color picker tool of your paint program. You will see that the brightest white buildings are usually around R=220, G=220, and B=220. I don't recall seeing any buildings with brighter whites than RGB=220. So - when I do a bat I usually make my whites around RGB = 190 to 200. The texture below is my painted white concrete texture with cuts. Note the RGB levels.
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi148.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fs26%2Fjmyers2043%2Fglow01.jpg&hash=a1755a55bb12f8b3389d66dafc6068ddfda7f295)
White is a particularly difficult thing to get right for a bat. It is most noticeable on a curved surface. No matter how dark you make your white there will always be a huge glowing area. I applied the above texture to a box with two bends.
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi148.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fs26%2Fjmyers2043%2Fglow02.jpg&hash=95b4f887d18db53889a4d5cdd1db81678deea631)
The way to get around this is to clone a second box. Use the scale tool and make it slightly larger than the original. In the picture below you will see that I made box02 1% larger. I also made a copy of the original texture but I applied 30% opacity to it. Then UV mapped the semi opaque texture to box02. The result is that you can have a curved white surface that still retains texturing detail.
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi148.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fs26%2Fjmyers2043%2Fglow03.jpg&hash=f623c62eb9dcb2ac36979e468336f4a390a9e2f6)
Here you go. Box02 with its semi opaque texture is wrapped around Box01. This gives me a curved white surface with little or no glare. In fact, you can control the amount of glare buy increasing or reducing the amount of opacity.
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi148.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fs26%2Fjmyers2043%2Fglow04.jpg&hash=a288bc1f2fc0f78573dc67afbb69b1584e21398c)
You may want to try this with your next 'white building with curved walls'.

OK, I will try tomorrow (if I had known that you need that point of view earlier I would took it yet, I just arrived from the area of the Guggenheim). Anyway, I don't know if it's possible to have a photo from a point of view like that. The museum is taller than any building around it (in three years it will be a tower near it, but is a lot of time to wait :D), but I will try taking the photo anyway...
Meanwhile, maybe you can use those:

May a suggest that you have a look for inspiration at BIG (http://www.big.dk) architects.
Just to give you an idea of some of the buildings they are doing: the Peoples building, Shanghai (http://kostasvoyatzis.wordpress.com/2007/08/08/the-peoples-building-shanghai/)

Oh wow, some of their designs are truly amazing. Utterly amazing.
The model looks fantastic David, very impressive, I look forward to being able to use it :)
Oh yeah, the "ren" building, i saw a video of that somewhere long time ago. Actually, that is a very interesting proposal, are they actually gonna build this? BTW, the BIG architecture site is just amazing, i will dig deeper into this site later. Thanks for the information, vester. Meanwhile, i begin working on the GUGGENHEIM now. will keep you updated soon. Thank you all for these nice comments!
in addition to big if you want to go really off the wall for architecture, check out Evolo [linkie] (http://www.evolo-arch.com/), they run annual open skyscraper and housing design competitions and the entries are mad. not many are sc4 applicable but for ideas that are out there, this site is second to none.

Engorn: no problem, thank you for pointing out the onld link of the SZ library and Music Hall is dead. I am still working on the Guggenheim, the building is massive, and the lot is a bit tricky, part of it is near the water. Not sure i will make a lot that requires plop next to the water...what do you think?
Pat: Yes, I would like to go back working on the university pack. I got an interesting idea: I can take request from people on batting the university buildings they went to. In that case, i need reference. Or i can come up with a design base on what people requested. Of course, there is a selection process, most likely i am looking at modern styles with some interesting design. So anyone is welcome to make request now. In fact, i been taking requests lately, the Sanye center is a good example:

mightygoose: yes, the PingAn is already released, way more faster than the actual building. Recently some leaked sources from PingAn states that there might not be a 646m tower, a shorter one will be built instead. Hopefully that is just a rumor. any way, it is done as it is, i will not make a maga lot for it with COCO Park, as you can see you can easily plop it next to the COCO Park. But thank you for the attention. Hope you will enjoy it.
Thank you again for the nice comments and suggestions, will work on the projects once i can. More pic of the Guggenhiem is coming up soon.

I think that if the lot requires plop next to the water it will minimize the possibilities of plopping the museum. Actually, the Guggenheim is near a river, but its not on the river as the Sydney Opera House is on the bay water, so I don't consider that making it ploable only near the water will be a great idea.
In my opinion, may be more tricky how to give a solution to the change of the level of the ground, if you know what I mean.
David that is looking real good there!!! Of course I would be happy to see some concert pics!!!

these two are great for next university pack, and they all have detail references. great suggestions guys!
ObladiOblada: I think this one have a very special design and it could be a individual CV lot on its own. I think it would be more appropriate to make a dedicated project for this instead of including it in a pack. Thanks for sharing!
Dmscopio, I've been looking the preview images of the Guggenheim on your website and I see that there is a problem, I think nothing difficult to solve. Look, the part where Puppy is (the flower covered dog), is connected with a road, so this part is higher than the part next to the river. May be it will be great to give the chance when you plop the museum in the game to let it at the same level, the museum and the ground, of course with a previous appropriate terraforming of the area (knowing the height of the museum's ground). My suggestion for this is to let this part "out" of the lot, so when you plop it, it could be "covered" by the ground, if you know what I mean :-[
On other hand, I see that you have done that part as a solid, and in the real museum a road and the GLR pass under the square where Puppy is. I can't find any images of this, so I will take some this week ;)
Engorn: yes, i know what you mean. I can make that part a plop and make it go out of the lot, However, the only problem is how tall does it need to be. The higher terrain need to be the same height as the puppy platform, so i need to figure out how tall is it in the 3ds max space...i think i will export some testing models for this. I also noticed the underpass issue you mentioned. that one is easy to fix. Thanks for the suggestion.
OK, thanks for your attention. :)

But it is such a complex project and i will have to wait till my other project finished. Maybe some day....Anyway, thanks for sharing.
And here i did some testing for the guggenheim lot, It appears that the trick i mentioned to Engorn is not working. By rising up the ground level to fit the lot will make the whole thing look wired. Here is the result:

The building will just cut into the terrain and not blending well with the terrain. :(
So now i think i will just leave it the way it is....or anyone got another suggestion?
May be you could look at how sunken stations are made...
Did you try to make your building to be a prop? I think it may solve some of the problems...

Is there a tutorial or forum around? The sunken station is below the ground level right? If so there is no shadow issue like this one...and i am still thinking a way to solve the problem of blending the edge of the building to the slope of the terrain. Not sure it is possible thought. Oh, the whole thing is a prop, and it goes out of the lot to meet the higher terrain.
I don't quite understand what you mean by blending... But I bet not the same thing I do. So could you clarify this a bit.
As for Sunken stations, I haven't seen any tutorials but you could study the SC4Modle files there is some info there. They aren't below ground, and that's why you don't get that "reversed" shadow effect. They are propes placed at the basic elevation of the lot and are covered by any terrain that is above that level.
Some progress on the Guggenheim:

Ever since I discovered there was no Bilbao Guggenheim Museum Landmark included to the game as it was in SC 3k (German version, at least I think there was one :D ) I strove for it... and now, seeing those pictures makes me just a very happy man :thumbsup:

This looks familiar to me. Have you installed the GMAX BAT texture fix? If not, installing it will most probably fix your problem. Afterwards you will have to render everything again.

Thanks Praiodan, i will download the fix and try it later. One question, i am only using GMAX for exproting the LOD, but not the actual BAT. I am using BatforMax for the actual exporting. Will it fix the texture problem of this case? Anyway, i will try it since it is the only thing I can do now. Thanks.
The "Texture Fix" is actually a modified script that changes the ID assignment of the files within the *.SC4Model, so they won't clash with the Maxis IDs anymore. Since the LODs are basically the "canvas" where the rendered textures are "painted" on, I'd assume that it works in your case as well. This means it might be enough to re-render the LODs, actually, but since I never worked with BAT4Max, I can't comfirm that (and I don't know if you can render the LODs separately from the actual rendering process with 3DStudioMax).
Thanks praiodan and Andreas. After downloading the texture fix it solved all my problems:

Wow that is amazing, i love it now i just have to find a place to put it.
So what are you batting now? I have a suggestion, the IKEA store in Beijing or Shanghai. It would be amazing if you did one of them. perhaps you could do others such as B&Q in Shanghai and TESCO and Walmart and make a set of large retail biuldings?
keep up the amazing batting Tankmank

I also saw that you have done a new Simlimpyc Stadium, another great (great, great, very great) work. I'm wishing to have it soon. ;)

It would be great for the candidature of Mosman (New Bordeaux) to the V Summer Olympic Games of CSC, a spanish SC4 website where I use to show my region.
Stunned by your excellence yet again. You'd think I'd be used to it by now, but as always, you never cease to amaze me &apls
thanks, you are all too kind. To answer some of your questions, yes there will be multiple props of the sport facilities such as the stand alone platform, swimming centers, indoor arena, and so on...Currently i am looking for some ideas for a swimming center and the indoor arena. Maybe you guys can give me some suggestion. I try to stay away from the similar looks of the Beijing watercubes tho....I want an original design this time.
Woah that stadium is amazing! what's the physics behind those huge cables? would it work in RL?
As for a swimming arena, how about something like this in Berlin, velodrome and swimming combined: http://www.e-architect.co.uk/berlin/jpgs/olympic_velodrome_berlin_dpa260608_cwernerhuthmacher.jpg
It's minimalist and the geometry is amazing...
Or Hadid's stunning proposal for London 2012:

Im not sure of many Swimming centers. But coming from you... I know it will be AMAZING!!!!
Amazing work :), looking forward for more
I was going to suggest the Aquatic Center for London 2012 by Zaha Hadid, but Gottago was fastest than me.
Anyway, I think that something lool a like the Aquatic Center for Atenas 2004 would be more consistent with the aesthetic of the Olympic Stadium that you have designed.
Here some pics:

I've had some difficulty downloading and installing your Simlympic pack from your website. There is a file with no extension with a size of 0 bytes in the zip that has the same name as the folder, I cannot delete it, and when I try to extract the files, the file conflicts with the folder, causing only the 0 byte file to be extracted. I cannot rename it either because it's in a zip. Any clue why it's there?
I'm having no problem with the downloads, using the integrated Zip archive program that comes with Windows Vista, or with WinRAR. So I would gather it's your zip program giving you a hard time. Try downloading a different one.
I just unzipped about 20 other BATs after attempting this one. I using the default Vista one, why is there a O byte file, that makes no sense.
There isn't a 0 byte file in the zip, unless your download was somehow corrupted. Try downloading the file again, then right-click on it, and select Extract All. If it asks if you want to extract the file unencrypted, choose yes.
I got around it, but every time i downloaded it the 0 byte file was there. (4 times) But anyways the arenas/stadiums are great, and I hope to make use of them in my cities.
2b2gbi: I have no idea why the zip file issue happen, maybe it is the Vista thing like you said. I do not have a Vista machine, and I zip the files with a mac, maybe it is caused by the compatibility of mac OS and Vista OS. Anyway, seems it does not happen to other people, i just keep the files it is right now.

welcome back sir, you know all your stuff is so clean, when are you going to do something dirty XD
just have another update on the website, big surprise ;D!! well, some of you(Simlympics Bidders) may find it useful...so please come to take a look! ;)
Dmscopio, I think I said it before, but I'm saying it again: You are brilliant. I suppose that the update you told us in your last message is the 3D view of the stadium, because I can't see anything else instead the venues for the Simlympics.
Anyway, I have a question for you and I really hope that you can help me. I'm trying to relot some of those amazing venues, but every time that I open one of them with the LotEditor, it crashes and I can't do it. I haven't tried with the others, but I suppose that it will be the same. Even I'm not able to find them as prop neither as building... Why is that?
I really really want to relot them because I had an idea for the Olympic Park on Mosman, a good one I thing, and to make it I need to do that.
Hoping I'm posting in the right place. Just downloaded DMScopio's gorgeous Shenzhen World Trade Center. Am on Mac so I juice. I run CAM. I have 5 files and no idea which is the non-Cam file that I don't need. The file names are:
Install NHP DMS Shenzhen World Trade Center[158397]-12.dat
Install NHP DMS Shenzhen World Trade Center[180347]-15.dat
Install NHP DMS Shenzhen World Trade Center[326538]-25.dat
Install NHP DMS Shenzhen World Trade Center[356735]-29.dat
Install NHP DMS Shenzhen World Trade Center[384282]-34.dat
Is there a way for us Mac folk to identify files in such circumstances? My thanks for your help--
Hey, I've been admiring your work for some time. Especially your fantastic stadium work and museums.
But, I am dying for your FNB Stadium and Simlympic Stadium set. So, if you could like, post them on the STEX/LEX or your new website, that would be fantastic :)
Hope to hear from you soon, Muxcomee
Dmscopio, what happened with your website? :'(
DM hasn't been around for awhile, at least I haven't seen him around. As for his website, I don't think it's there anymore, I haven't been able to get to his site for several weeks now. All I get is a message saying website doesn't exist or couldn't find it. So your guess is as good as mine.
where do i get these stadiums if his sites down???

Thank you.
Hi there!
Yepp I bump this inactive thread because my saying I think is relevant for this topic. Since DMScopio's all previous private host sites or the links to his works are dead now, in the last couple of months I tried to filled the gaps, and with the support of the Simtropolis/STEX admins uploaded some of his lost or "only hidden somewhere on the simcity.cn page" uploads to the STEX UNDER DMSCOPIO'S ACCOUNT, where the rest of his upload can be found. Now recently I discovered that there were at least 3 remaining uploadings from him which was still missing.
- Boleyn Ground Stadium (I found a relotted version of this with the original model and desc and pics on a french fansite here: http://www.simland.eu/forum/grand-sud/utopia-feu-artifice-nouvel-375-t9955-4695.html#p594730 (http://www.simland.eu/forum/grand-sud/utopia-feu-artifice-nouvel-375-t9955-4695.html#p594730)), but would be nice to recover the original lot file too. (first picture)
- New-new Anfield Stadium v3 or v1 I don't know which one is this really. Definitely NOT the version which was released on the STEX (https://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/16765-new-anfield-stadium-aka-stanley-park/). You can see what I'm talking about on the second pic. I have now this building, because someone managed to dig out from his plugin folder.
- University Campus pack vol. 1 - now this is the most important, because as far as I know this is totally lost. Since a couple of you downloaded it back in 2006-2007, I hope someone still have this university pack and we can bring it back to live. (third picture)
Possible original file names:
- Dmscopio_NHP_Uiversity_Campus_Pack_Vol1.zip
- NHP_DMScopio_BoleynGround.zip
Any help would be awesome, specially with the University Campus pack!
Thanks in advance!
