EDIT: Please post here if you have any technical difficulties with my lots. Thank you!
Hello,
Due to popular demand ( ;)) by my MD readers, I've decided to open a lot showcase thread, in which I'll post pics of the various lots
I'm working on. Not sure where to upload any, but I'll cross that bridge when I get there. Anyway, the first two up for discussion:
A re-lotting of Kevdan25's Mcdonalds, always considered the original to be too cluttered.

A re-lotting of Hableurg's Bowling Alley, which I always considered to be too small.

Those are seasonal trees, by the way. ;D
Don't worry, plenty of in-game pics are headed your way, plus a bunch more lots. These are by far the simplest ones; for the large ones
have far too many dependencies to be considered for release. That is all for now, comments and suggestions welcome! :thumbsup:
EDIT: Forgot to mention, both are transit enabled. ;)
Not looking bad :thumbsup: ¡¡¡
The overall look is nice. What about adding some light poles ?¿ They would add some extra realism ( imo of course ;) )
If these are growable Lots, you will want to not have them transit-enabled. If they are transit-enabled, they will never upgrade/get redeveloped when the conditions are right for a bigger building to be at that location in the city when the game is running.

@Jeroni, thanks! Indeed, I seem to have forgotten light poles, thanks for the tip. :)
@Jan, these are ploppable-only as of now, but I do plan on making growable versions as well. Thanks for the reminder too- it's something I
might have overlooked.
:thumbsup: &apls Travis im soo glad you opened up shop and are now showing off what you are doing...
keep up the hard work and any question dont be affraid to ask - pat
Thanks Pat! :)
The promised in-game pics to follow...
As of now, the re-lotting of Hableurg's Bowling alley is 99% done (just got to add light poles), then it's on to modding. I'll be making both a growable
and a ploppable. The McDonald's has a ways to go yet, as I have to reduce the number of dependencies. (It's like 10 right now)
The Bowling Alley in action:

Notice the seasonal trees?

And something new in the pipeline: A Bus Maintenance Depot...

Those buses in there aren't permanent; right now they're New Jersey Transit buses, and they probably won't suit everyone.
Comments anyone?
Later.
:thumbsup:
The McD's and Bowling alley lots you created are inspiring. I think this represents one of the best parts of the community where by others work can be utilised in different ways (with due credit of course! ;))...
those busses looks great and so does the ingames travis &apls
I think you've done a great job in Lot Editing. The MC Donalds Lot looks much nicer now and also the bus depot looks more realistic that way. Good! &apls
Progress...
But first, the necessary replies...
@le harv, thanks! Indeed, all the credit goes to the creators of these wonderful BAT's. :)
@Thanks pat! :)
@Vario, Thanks! Glad you think it looks nice. :)
Anyway, I made a growable version, and I tested it. Grew in less than 10 seconds. :)

Unfortunately, when I went back in the LE to correct a last few things, I couldn't find the lot. Anywhere. ()sad()
The files are all intact in the plugins folder- it's just that, for whatever reason- the lot editor won't read them. I tested it again,
and it still grew in-game. The corrections I wanted to make should be pretty obvious in the pic below:
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg485.imageshack.us%2Fimg485%2F6021%2Fwhitewoodmay15031186444se0.jpg&hash=0226b5f648c4466519c87e64e930c55f29975fc3)
Apparently, the prop family I used for the cars spawned them in all sorts of weird places, and I missed a shrub in the middle of the entrance.
Both need to be removed, but without the LE, it's hopeless. :'( I'm aware it can be done in the reader, but it's far beyond my knowledge. &mmm
Perhaps, anyone might have a solution? Or if not, could someone have a look at the files, and see if they can remove the props for me? &idea
Anyway, the ploppable needs a little more modding, but I can't release it until I resolve the problem with the growable.
However, the McDonald's is coming along. Some LE work to do, then a little modding (plop only), and the packaging, testing, and release.
But where? ()what() Perhaps I need to open a "LEX Candidacies thread?
Some comments, suggestions anyone?
Thanks in advance.
travis so you cant even find the bowling alley period even the plop? You should know what i would say about LEX candidacies lol... I would be willing to help you to try and figure out what went wrong with the growable, cause
i would like to learn the process nothing better to do then teach ones self and butt heads in a solution lol
You should use Ardecila's nice parking lot lights instead of those Maxis ones. I can't remember which ones they're called, but they're tall and square. :P
QuoteUnfortunately, when I went back in the LE to correct a last few things, I couldn't find the lot.
I was messing around with some Road Top Mass Transit lots for my game yesterday with Lot Editor/SC4 Tool etc. I would open the existing RTMT that I wanted to edit, do my stuff and then save under a different name but then it would no longer show in the LE load menu? Very strange as like u said the file exists in my plugins.
if you do a save as in the LE, you need to restart it to get the lot to show.
I know thats not your problem travis, but it's probably Le_harvs
Travis, have you tried typing in the IID into the LE? Thats how I find pesky lots.

Your work is much better than original :thumbsup:
Any chance of you releasing the bus depot, I would love that in my city.
Anyway, I'm still working, but mostly on other people's lots right now. Have no fear Diggis; that lot is at the top of my release list. It's good to hear people actually plan on downloading some of my stuff. I hope to open a LEX Candidacy thread next week too. ;)
More replies and some new pics hopefully in a little while. :thumbsup:
Need it tested? ;D
Thanks everyone, I've found the problem with the Bowling Alley- I made a few modding errors and the LE refuses to read it. I'll start over soon...
I do, however, have a lot that can be released soon...

There are cars on both, but they show somewhat sporadically.
I hope to release these soon on the LEX, I'll be starting a candidacy thread soon. Modding will be similar to the Maxis Bus Station, with an
increased capacity.

Absolutely realistic and great work Travis. There is really nothing what i ahve to criticize. Keep up the good work. &apls ;)
i have never seen bus depots in a city. it's very nice to have them released and when it is I will deploy them in suburban areas like Wood Green and Turnpike Lane and Acton

Football Variety Pack sounds nice, but where did you got that black running tarmac? And maybe take off those flower beds :P
Travis,
American football is not popular in Poland, but this stadium is fantastic! I want it! :thumbsup:
And I was thinking what happened with you :D
thanks god! nice work. i would put the scoreboards in the back endzone though so that everyone can see them.
Thanks for the comments. :thumbsup:
Quotebut where did you got that black running tarmac?
To be honest, I'm not really sure. I don't keep track of my downloads very well, and the other day I happened to come across them in the LE. I'll
hunt them down eventually. ;)
QuoteAmerican football is not popular in Poland, but this stadium is fantastic! I want it!
As I think you might like a soccer (otherwise known as football outside the US) variation, and a lot of other people probably do too, I'll give it a try. :)

How about both end zones? ;)

Those are some very excellent looking football fields... if you intended them to look like high school fields, you've nailed the look perfectly. Great work... can't wait to see those hit the LEX.

They look great, infact the black one looks just like the feild i play my games on. If you would like i could BAT some props and we could make a high school feild, same style, but higher capacity.

Hey Trav, besides fixing the grass textures that are off from the others it's looking good, and the new field really fits in well with your base texture there.
By the way, your PM inbox is full, you probably oughta clear a few messages from it ;).
Chris
Hey travis simply looking great here man and way to go on TG :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
alright sounds cool , ill do it right now. good work with these new ones, you should make it littered with those props of people that only come out at night (its like people-nightclub or somthing) for a really good high school football atmosphere.
wish i could do lots like these. i did the "first lot " tutorial park. but how do you houses that doesn´t exist in the plugin folder. someone has to "paint" them. Know what i mean? Love your Generic bus Version.
Travis,
Your lots look good. Nice add-ons for the cities between Maxis' simple soccerfields and the large stadiums.
Good fences and other props, thoug flowers and shrubs shouldn't be within the ring, I guess.
So many grass textures, how do you manage to fit everything together?
More progress. :)
At this point, the number of lots that have been made for this project is 10, more have been started and even more are planned. :thumbsup:
These lots are totally unmodded right now, and simply organizing them once I'm finished will be quite a challenge. ;)
There are some pics, though... 10 of them in fact. :)

ooh, an update. Really great job with the paths and other textures. Just can't get over how well the CP textures work with the fields, I don't think I could have planned it better(and trust me I didn't). Somethings are just meant to be ;D. My favorite is the middle one with the lighter coolered dirt paths.
Excellent work on these.

travis this is simply wonderful update on these fields wow..... great job my friend - pat
concession stand looks pretty good. Little bright roof, but pretty good. After looking at these i think i have a pretty good idea of what you want for the bleachers, Ill start them after posting some century old pictures in my bat thread. Lots are spectacular I love the crimson checkerboard one.
edit: three straight "pretty good"'s. someone call guiness.
I like the lots very much indeed.
One question though: if you are planning a large amount of these, there will be a lot of Lots in the park menu, I guess. And everyones' park menu is already full of lots. Is it maybe possible to make the fields into families and some props also, so that we can plop down one lot that changes every plop? Random sportsfields? Or is this not possible or unwanted?
You could also consider to put them in the health menu. Probably one of the menus that is not yet stuffed with plugins.
I like the lots, especially the BBQ Party :thumbsup: :P
If you dont make these into a lot family so that they change with every one you plop ill gladely make up some mmls for these babies both the American Football ones and the Soccer ones. I just released a big mml pack and have gotten quite efficent at doing it..would only take me like 5-10minutes and another 5minutes to test them.
Hi folks. :)
Unfortunately, I can't release the football lots yet- I need to wait for Chris to release his prop pack, and he is tied up with RLS at the moment.
Never fear, for I always have something else in the pipeline. ;)
A small, suburban Post Office. Never mind the two buildings above it, those are Krio's lots I'm working on. The parking lots just happen to match.

It's near complete. It spawns postal vehicles, located in the rewards menu, (non-conditional) and has a custom icon. Just some tweaks and it's ready to go. :thumbsup:
PS: There are cars in the parking lot. They just always seem to dissapear when I go to take a picture. :P
basic but nice. wb travis!
Nice work travis-Glad to see you making use of cycledoggs exellent props-Also-Are they mikeseith cars in the parking lot-I reccomend cycledog cars-There much more detailed ;)
Also,is there going to be a fence at the end of the lot???
True, CP's cars are more detailed- but they're static. These cars come and go depending on the time of day. Those white trucks, btw- are american
mail trucks.
About the fence, probably not. I want the parking to be able to fit with other lots, to make modular shopping centers and strip malls. (Like in
the picture)
Ah,but you could make a different version :)
btw....about the football feilds. A) could you send them to me for "Testing" :P cause i really really really want to have them before i start my new region, and B) should we try and cut back on the dependencies? since there are 5+ lots, i think 6-8 dependencies is good.
QuoteAh,but you could make a different version.
Hmm, didn't think about that before. Could do a urban 1x2 version. ;)
Quotebtw....about the football feilds. A) could you send them to me for "Testing" cause i really really really want to have them before i start my new region,
Alright- take a few days though. I ran into some technical problems with 1-2 lots a ways back that I haven't sorted out yet.
QuoteB) should we try and cut back on the dependencies? since there are 5+ lots, i think 6-8 dependencies is good.
Heh, 5+ lots. It's a little closer to twenty right now, albeit only about 13 or 14 are finished now.
I've been keeping close track of the dependencies, and 8 is the number. Shouldn't be that bad for 20 lots. I'll still ought to think twice before uploading that one to the STEX though. :D ::)
lol...20 lots??! wow. 8 dependencies for 20 lots...quite a bargin.
Hello Travis.
I like the post office, I also like Krio's buildings as well. They blend in very well together. I would like to suggest you make the lovely football field a little...less lovely ;). In otherwords the grass looks IMO too perfect. I would suggest to dirty it up a little. The choice is your of coarse. It looks great whatever you decide to to do:thumbsup:
WoW Travis that post office is looking real good!! hmmm only 8 Dependencies for 20 lots hmmm I think that is one heck of a bargain if you ask me...... Cant wait to see what else you come up with - pat

Once there was no American football fields, now there is too many! $%Grinno$%
Of nothing there ever will be too many!
Lovelly work travis :thumbsup: Can't wait till you upload ()stsfd()
There's no such thing as too many American football fields. ;)
These look fantastic! I especially love the two in the middle with the stands and the reddish track, they remind me of two local football stadiums. These will be a much needed and welcomed addition to rural towns and such.

wow travis, you made my DIII stadium look nice. good work!
I Love those football fields travis. Keep the updates coming. And Football is one of my favorite sports LOL.

Very nice work!
I've got a question, though: are those textures available on the LEX at the moment (but with no lots, if you get what I mean)?
A small teaser for something very BIG tomorrow...

Watch the STEX...
:thumbsup:
*knows exactly what it is* $%#Ninj2
Nice timing with it. Should we look on STEX before or after (remaining vague so I don't ruin the surprise of others) :D
I'd ask Alfred (Pat Riot) about that one, as he'll be uploading it. (his model ;)) PS: He didn't model it from scatch, I think he based it off some
google model. :)
gah! Don't give me credit for that peice of crap model!
I found it on google warehouse, friday night, and it the spur of the moment, put it in BAT, and exported it.
Its not a very good model, but its good enough that I want to get it up there for this afternoon.
but Travis, awesome lot. I was definetely not expecting somthing that nice :p.
Only STEX :o Are you going to work this for LEX too ;)
its not good enough for the LEX. Sometime I may make my own less crappy version.
Travis I cant wait to see the whole lot on that!!!s
Stadium is on the STEX, good lotting travis.
all i expected out of you was a patch of dirt with some planters and you gave me the sickest lot possible ;D
I like the stadium. Needs more nightlighting though, especially outside. (Still chuckling at the BSC Tostitos Fiesta Bowl)
And its up...

Ouch! Nice!
But, ....ahem..... does this construction have an entrance?
nope^
read the disclaimer though. We didn't do any modeling on this.
Travis, i'd love to continue doing these, although I need some time away from football if you know what I mean...

Hey, this looks beautiful. &apls
There is one problem though. The wheel won't work this way.
The waterwheel of a mill like this should be in a narrow canal where you have some kind of difference in height, because the wheel is driven by the water streaming under or over it (depending on which system you use).
hmm....isn't the wall/half the wheel supposed to be underwater? is that possible?
PatRiot: then you should lower the wheel ;) Otherwise excellent job both of you.
Thanks guys. :) Actually though, I think the wheel is supposed to be just decoration, and no longer in use. ;)
Well, it could be decoration but even if it was used it should be lower :P
Let's just pretend the water level used to be higher. :D
Rising sea levels formed a new river and much of the water from the pond emptied into the river :D
looks nice.. pitty about that canal mis-align
Joe
Isn't the wheel normally turned by the river water flowing through it?
QuoteIsn't the wheel normally turned by the river water flowing through it?
Yeah, but he modeled it a little too high up, so the water can't reach it. :P But its not that big a deal, I can just lie and say its decoration. ::)

Already fixed. :) Forgot to take pics though. You'll see eventually. ;)

Yup, just blame it all on global warming. :D

Happened to run across this excellent model on the STEX the other day, and, since the lot was 'basic' to say the least, I decided to give it a
makeover. Comments are welcome. ;D
Next up: Helsinki City Hall. ;)
Travis, don't do Helsinki City Hall. I'm sure you could LOT it greatly but RippleJet and I have already made it as reward building which becomes availeble after you have enough Krio bats in your city :)
You could mod and lot something else from the prop pack ;)
Darn. $%Grinno$% Well, I now have a very neat-looking lot I can keep for personal use, since I already lotted it. ;)
Well, you can always lot it after the reward lot is close to release :P We need to make more releases and then its ready :P Of course the lot must be W2W lot ;D
QuoteWe need to make more releases and then its ready
Hmm, I can (and am supposed to :P) help with that. See below... ;)
Anyway, lots of new stuff to show here today:
First, in an update full of Krio buildings, we have the Mofo Nightclub:

Next up: Modding all this stuff, which doesn't make for exciting pics, unless you enjoy looking at hexadecimal, like I do. ::)
However, the Elsbury Lighthouse (the one at the top of the page) and the Barnegat Lighthouse are already complete, and they'll soon be off for testing. :)
Later.
Awesome! I've been waiting the small shops for ages :P ;D You have already modded MoFo? If not, write the name as MoFo because the song is written as that :) I've got a readme for it ready too or the "story" parts. I just love to see my work in the game..so beautiful that I cry :'(
Thanks Travis :thumbsup:
hey, could you send the finished lighthouse back to me? I'd kinda like to review everything before I submit it. Ill probably submit all mine monday, hopefully, if I can finish everything by then.
Doing the readme right now. :thumbsup: (Well, actually, I'm having a battle with my HTML editor to get it to do what I want it to. $%#Ninj2)
Anyway, you'll have it soon. :)
:o You used my parking lots textures ;D If you need me to upload them to ST to make the dependancy more available, just let me know.
Oh, and one suggestion would be to use the textures that have the single handicapped spot in the middle so it lines up with the front door.
New stuff! :)
This a sports bar made by patriots, and sent to me for the usual modding and lotting. ;)

Not sure what he means by bland? you've got a freaking party going on down there.
I'm wondering the same. Maxis bus is alright, because then you don't need to download ALL busses from the internets. My opinion of this and Riot's: awesome.
What i mean is the actual bottom of the BAT is bland ;)
Well, that's not Travis' fault ;)
Ohhh!So thats not travises BAT :P
Travis, I have tried downloading the sports bar twice now from "the other site" but all I get is a big brown box, I have CP's prop pack and I see his umbrellas sticking out from under the brown box but no sports bar, please help! Thanks

Oops.
()sad()
I forgot, of all things, to include the model. I'll get in touch with Alfred and we'll have this fixed asap.
Apologies to everyone. I'm shocked no one noticed this sooner.
I like them, great work!
Travis in reguards to TG Barnegat Lighthouse, I am having CTD's alot and I tried everything to fix it but to no avail it still crashes just selecting the lot and clicking to place... Talk about a fast exit from the game lol... I do hope you can get this fixxed as I love the Relott on this....
Are you sure that its only one? I haven't got any crashes when using it alone without other custom content on my testing session.
That is strange. Make sure you have all the dependencies.
This has been thoroughly tested, and noone else has been experiencing crashes.
I do have all the dependecie's even if I didn't it would not CTD. There have been other people that are having the same problem just check it out, so i know so far Im not the only one... Im just pointing this out as its sad to see a wonderful lot that I want to use but cant... Other folks that are having the problem are raildigga666 and also joe2102001...
agh yes. We figured out there is a problem and we will fix it asap. Thanks for the report!
Thank you Patriots!!! I cant wait to get ahold of the Fix as I do so love this lot and I wanna play it in game....
Why not improve your own skills and mod it yourself ;) But of course we fix it as fast as we can
I could but that is not the point Krio :D I will wait patiently for the fix as I said....
Krio, that is not a good reply to anyone whether they are capable of fixing it themselves or not. The upload was flawed as has been explained to you elsewhere and it is up to the team to fix and upload the fixed lot. These sort of comments do not inspire confidence for giving you TG upload rights to the LEX.
I wasn't aware that "posts good comments" was in the LEX criteria? Do not worry travis is fixing this as we speak.
It has nothing to do with posting good comments but with the attitude expressed. It appears as though you expect people to fix things themselves while you get round to sorting it. It should not have been uploaded as it was for one thing and you haven't figured out the problem or sorted it. That has been done by xxdita and I.
One criteria for LEX uploaders is that they will stand behind their releases, and do their best to resolve any issue that comes along. That is the primary difference between the LEX and other exchanges. Tech support is actually available as needed.
Mistakes will happen, as we are all human. It's how those mistakes are handled here that allows us to have confidence in any of the uploaders on the LEX.
Well, as I was saying, Travis is working to fix this. We are working as fast as we can, and telling us we are not working hard, being sloppy, being careless, or whatever your word of the day is is not going to help. Give us a chance to fix this. Im kind of getting tired of this constant slander.
It's not like I just disappeared. $%Grinno$% I'm fixing it now... :)
After sorting out the CTD problems, I decided to check the lot in LE. I am missing props although I have everything listed in the Dependency list. I am missing two squares on the left side of the lighthouse and a small oblong in the front centre. Please let me know what these are.
Another criteria of LEX upload rights is that you correct any problems yourselves, rather than rely on others (Barby, Nate, et al) to do it for you. Oh, and LEX access is granted to individuals, not teams, just so we're clear on that.
Should have posted this last night, but thanks to the assistance of Barby, (:)) the Lighthouse has been updated. :thumbsup: So, go and re-download... ;)
WoooHoooo Thank you Travis for taking care of this and I will be sure to get it when I get home from work....

More pics of the completed fields to come this weekend. ;D
EDIT: Eric, to answer your question, not that I know of. :( Though, if someone were to take on batting some, I'd be more than happy to do lotting on them. ;)
Looking so great and so American with every update! ;D :thumbsup:
Travis,
I may not be American, and to me football is played with a round ball ;) , but even I can appreciate what a great job you're doing with these. I'm in the process of something similar for community based football (sorry I can't bring myself to call it soccer) pitches, so I watch with interest.
All the best,
Paul
excellent travis. now release already :D
Really looking forward to seeing this Trav. They look much better than my sparse lots for the fields. All of them you've shown really bring them to life.
On a side note, given the light posts, are you night lighting the fields? And better yet, if you are, that would be nice to see ;).
Chris
Travis I agree with Chris here that this would look sweet night lighted...
Chris: Answered via PM. ;)
Thanks to Ian, Paul, Alfred and Pat for the comments. :)

Great job tiemanj on the BAT and kudos to Travis on the very sweet lot! :thumbsup:
These are very good, keep it up!
Ahhh
I've been LOTing tiemanj's BATs aswell ( His beach condos )
The watchovia building looks great :thumbsup:
Exellent work
And tiemanj(if your there),you've chose an exellent LOTter

Very good there Travis!!!
It fits nice and snug in my downtown. If I subconciously told you I would test it, it works great. good modding/lotting travis.

Might only be a few more weeks... ;)
Looking good there Travis and didnt you say that ummm several months ago lol....
Yeah Travis, didn't you say that a few months ago? I mean, what's the holdup... wait a minute, I've got a call...
"What you want to know when the RRP is going to be done? Look I'll have to call you back."
Anyway, like I was saying, stop messing around and get it finished, $%Grinno$% lol. It's looking good. When you release it I'll probably end up spend a few hours plopping all of them just to check out the lots ;D.
Chris
Reminds me of my new/old middle school's Track field, except the county is too cheap to provide real football goals. $%Grinno$% lol, keep up the great work ;D ;)

Nibble on? So it's not just sweet, sweet candy for the eyes? Oh heavenly day! :D :P Great job on that. :thumbsup:
*snickers* Looking good there Travis so about anther 8 months or soo right??? hehehee :D
Travis, this is why i took your plugins folder. I knew you were never going to release, so i stole them. They work great btw. good work :thumbsup:
I guess I won't do any suggestions that might delay the release even further. I've personally been able to test them out, and they are of enormous quality, and even translated! ::)
When finished, ask the modeler to make them into soccer fields, and make a new set with soccer fields :P
Thanks for the comments everyone. ;)

I think it looks this way because of the perspective of the pic, because the flight deck overhangs the hull of the ship some. ;)
Great, cept for one thing. See the gate at the entrance? you can just walk in, then take a right if you are a terrorist :D
amazing lot travis.
Only such a great lot could go with such a great BAT like that. Great job Jeff and Travis ;D :thumbsup:
Now, perhaps if I had a lotter like this back then my BATs wouldn't have been so horrible... $%Grinno$%

But what I think of the work itself, truly awesome as always. Love the baggage carts! ;D :thumbsup:
Thanks I'll look out for it on the STEX. Those planes look reallly nice!!! Try doing Jetblue.
lol, I didn't make those planes, just lotted and modded them. ;P -Travis
Looks really good in my opinion!
Wonderfull planes, Travis! Keep it up :thumbsup:
Looks great, if that is one giant lot I would like to use it because I am afraid to build with the airport pack after encountering CTD's with the one lot at a time. I wonder how long those airline companies can still hold up in real life if they hadn't held up already. I got an idea, how high can you move those airplanes up in the Lot Editor? I'm not talking about this airport, but I noticed the planes seem to be able to overhang the lot, and are possible to go airborn, via cntrl+up. So maybe if you want to try that to see how it looks and how high up you can get the plane, I didn't want to try it myself.
Now that the 757/767 are off to LEX scrutineering, it's time to start production on the next pack:

Where can i download that airport?I can't wait to download the parking lots too!! :) ;D
Those fields are looking good there Travis.
Whilst to me football is a game played with a round ball, I can still appreciate a good bat/lot when I see one ;) :D
I have to say, with what I'm seeing around here, I'm glad to call myself part of the team. To quickly answer your question from my thread (though I'll likely answer it again next time I update), a readme would be nice. Would you be willing to do a few for a couple of bridges I have sitting around? I know that's a LEX requirement, but I don't have the time to put those things together. Just let me know what you need for them if you will make them.
The parking lots look pretty darn good. You can never have enough variety with those kinds of things, and these will certainly help get that; and the _x4 varieties are great.
Great work, and hopefully I can be on around here a bit more (and get some of these projects done).

Since I couldn't send you a PM lol....
Hey Travis that would be fine... the only thing is that I made special texture pack that is on the lex [here linkie] (http://sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=2056) for it if you wouldn't mind using it that would be great.. I do need help with PIM X as that thing is evil lol, btw do you still know how to do custom UI's if so I think it would be a good to make some for ITC... so if that is something your intrested I can start making some general UI's and KFC would be one I would love to make one for...
talk to you soon,

Read my User Guide, please/ SC4PIM is not evil but brlliant.
LoL well I didnt mean it was evil as evil but for a learning curve, I should have worded that a bit better sorry Barby... I know it the most wonderful tool ever to hit the market out there and I am very excited that its out!!
Not a bad looking office buulding Travis. My only thought is that the lot size could be scaled down a bit. It looks like the tiles on the left and across the back are just green space and, while this may be the look you're going for, would seem to limit its versaitlity in-game. Perhaps consider converting it into a 4x4. I like the parking textures though, and it's a nice choice of building.
-Matt
@Matt: don't worry, they'll be variants of this lot, such as 3x3, 4x4 and even 3x2. ()stsfd()

READ THE USER GUIDE. At least two of the French TSC members who don't speak much English have read it and understood it as there are plenty of pictures. It has a very simple learning curves IF you read the User Guide and work through it.

The chimney is a little bit big.

A few more houses...
Nice roofing materials and the pitch of the roof is nice. Not too flat, not too steep. The siding colors look good. Perhaps a couple of vent pipes or a TV aerial on the roof? A spot at the rear of the home where there is an electric meter?
Good work! :thumbsup:
Yeah, the chimney is a bit oversized. But I didn't model the houses, just textured and rendered them. (although I did some minor modeling)
@Jim: I actually did that on a few houses, see below. ;)

Looks like a nice collection of BATs you're assembling. I would suggest a few more vent pipes though (particularly on the last pic there). Most houses tend to have at least 2 or 3 for various purposes. Looking pretty good so far.

Hi,Travis :thumbsup:
Real excellent buildings - I like this ... and may be I'll can create my cities with this ...
It's a splendid house Travis. &apls
The night version is just beautiful.
Simply Beautiful :)are these based on Jersey Homes?
One of those looks like my friend's house. But, I live in eastern Tennessee.

They're not really based on anything in particular, just the average american suburbia type of homes. ;)

It might be the jpg compression, a closer zoom would be good if you could get it, but the tiles on the roof seem to be a bit narrow. Aisde from that, this recent one looks like a good addition. I like the darker red of the siding.

Hmm...that's a zoom 5 render. But those roof tiles, I'll see about fixing. ;)

Not bad, I think. :) I'll be wrapping that up as a basic water plop, but sometime in the future I'll revisit it and perhaps make an upgradeable seaport. ;)

just so you know the 9D2 was a prototype and only 2 were ever made....

i can get you lots of information should you want to increase the detail on the model.
you'll need to make the LOD's tight at water level if you want the ship to appear partly submerged. At the moment it appears to be over the water.
Other than that, nice job. :)
Very nice job! It looks especially realistic! :thumbsup:
thanks Patrick. :)
@John: well, talked to you on MSN/chat about it already. :P
@Joel: yeah- I shall revisit the sub soon. :)

Uh, oh, hello Travis. I'm here!
You can't see me, but I can see your work.
Pity that I know nothing about military vessels, so my contribution will remain no more than just a great WOW!
The vessels look very good to me and they will definitely be a nice addition to anyone's mailitary seaports out there. I don't have one in my region and it will propbably stay that way.
Good work and please continue!
Greetings, FrankU
Wow, what fantastic work, especially given how quickly you've been able to make it! It looks like it's already mostly done, and it's only been a few days since you started showing pictures of it! I have a few warship requests of my own, if you're open to requests (and modeling 1890s vessels); they'll allow me to make a series of historical photos for a joint project between me and emgmod, if you're curious.
Getting rather dusty in here, eh? ::)

Well, as I commented before, I can comment now: this looks really great. There should be place for one of these vessels in my seaport.
Hello! I rescently downloaded the ITC American Football Fields and I've noticed there are no lines in the football stadiums. It seems clear I'm missing a Texture or Prop pack. After looking at the dependencies I saw I was missing "TG Mini Props Pat Riot V1" When I clicked on the link it took me to Simtropolis but no files where found. It seems like the file is no longer on the site. Any help??

All of Pat Riot's STEX uploads were taken offline the last time he (and some other TG members) was banned from ST. AFAIK they haven't been reuploaded elsewhere as of yet.

In fact only two props from that pack were used in the set- a concessions stand and a light tower- neither of which would be responsible for that issue. It's likely you missed one of Chrisadams' packs, as those were the ones that contained the actual fields. Double-check that you have them if you could, and we'll go from there. :)
I think that may have solved it Travis. On the LEX details page it said I had already downloaded ALN Vol02. Though, I had dowloaded it, that doesn't mean that I ever installed it. :P Thank you for pinpointing what pack I may have been missing, otherwise I may have never looked. I will open my game and check to see if it worked, if you don't hear back from me, it worked.
Thanks Again!
