Thans all !

Fledder200 - Hehehe, that's a funny yeah !  :D Wait a week or less and you'll get more render of the Bierstraat that you'll can show to your firend ..  :thumbsup: I'm still working slowly on the base ! What is your building ? If it's not too difficult (well at least if it's BAtable) I can try it as well !  :thumbsup:

Delecto - I've reworked the layer, I think it looks okay now ! The top roof texture, for this point I agree, I'm myself not satisfied with it too, I've put the texture a bit below, tell me what you think and if another texture, with a link ( ;D ), is needed here ! As for the ground floor, well I think it looks okay from the photos and real impression I get when passing tough the area I think the high of it is okay.. But I can always put the high down a bit of you want ! For information the high is 13 meters.. Well now that you said that, I think it's a bit too much, what about a high of 10 meters instead of 13 ? As a sims is 4 meters tall I think from the shot of Google's Street View it's approximately  3 times a real people, so I thought, when I was making the building that 13 meters is enough for that !

Try to show us renderings at zoom5, it's better to help you.  ;)

my advice would be...
- dirty the fans and satellite dishes.
- give more perspective to the side windows. Try to extrude the gray part outside, not much but just enough to give him consistency.

10 meters for the base will look better i hope, not sure.  &mmm
Oh, and I always put 2 or 3 Sims on my lot, it's better to interpret the dimensions.  ;) but it begins to be very well!

DEL!

Now that I use 3dsMAX 2009 (with SimFox's new BAt4max ;D ) the render are faster, so I can post only zoom5..  ()stsfd()

For the satellite dish, I can, just give me the appropriate texture. (I can't find any that fits well here &mmm ) As for the perspective of the side windows, I'd like, but it's a simple plane with a simple texture.. So I don't know how to extrude only one part of it (if you know, let me know !  ;D )

I'll do that !  ;)


Anyway, here is some progress on the building in Rotterdam, I've done a part of the base..




And here is a project I'd like to do for my MD, it's based on an asylum in a game :



Fledder200 -> i'm a bit blocked at the moment, because I can't find any pictures of the back wall of the base of the tower, if you or your friend can take some, it will be very kind !

Hi Arthur!
it looks amazing! the week after xmass i'm meeting him, when i go there i'll make some pic's for you oke?!
my building isn't that nice and high, but it's a nice one.
the pics below don't do any good for my building but it would be cool if you BAT it!
my building is located on the most far right on the second pic. there are 3 same buildings and onderneath the apartments there are "health shops" like dokters, daycares and dentest offices
the "laan op zuid" is called the health boulvard and is one of the main roads to the city center
i will even dragg my poor little body trough the snow to make some real good pics foor you if you like lol
and if you like to have more pic's of buildings in rotterdam, i can help!
juist scream and i will see if i can make pics!







keep up the good work and let me know!

greets Ferry

Hi Fledder200 !

Thanks for your future helps with the pictures, it's very kind of you  !
Your building is also really interesting, some modern buildings like that, is all I love ! I'll try to do them when I'll finish the others projects I have on the way  ;D !

BTW, the future days are only for BATing (I get bored of SC4 because of 3 crash without a saving on my poor capital..  &sly )
So an update to come soon !

Well, today I tried to export a W2W building, but when I exported it, 3dsMAX give me this error :



What that means ?

after some quick googling I found this post by callagrafx and this thread over at ST. After reading both, my guess is that it's caused by nightlights.
RIP Adrian (adroman), you were a great friend

Yeah, the nightlights... But I can't find any tips to solve that problem.. strange, should I export it without any night lights ?

errr... I suppose you could ask Simfox, I'm pretty sure he'll know the answer (seeing as he created BAT4MAX)

Hey !
I have somethings in my BAT workshop..
I've done a little I-M warehouse based on a small industrial building near oeiras, in Lisbon's suburbs..
here's what I have done with an ingame result !



But when I zoom in :



Anyone have an idea of this problem ? (Sorry DEL for asking you by PM, but I needed to update my BAt thread  :P ^^ )
Oh and btw, I plan to redo the roof texture, with a more blackish one (like the one Ferox used a lot for his W2W series )


And here's something I bring back from the older files :


(Zoom5 HD resized to 800x600 ) link to full size
what do you think of it ?
