Curved Buildings and Diagonal Buildings
after those two towers, i will work on a few buildings made for curved roads and diagonal roads.
Curved and diagonal buildings sounds good! Please hurry so I can give up batting, though prepo's set is waiting next door..so maybe I'm not needed. So take your time.
Hey Patriots, if you're looking for someone to render that second building, I would be happy to oblige, you can send the files to my email address (check my forum profile) if you want me to help.

Huntington looks very nice, is it made for a diagonal road?
The roof on the lower part of the building could maybe use some more work, the texture looks a bit flat and the installations you have added are a bit lost on this big roof.

Just started that this morning.
will be a 6x6 downtown mall.
the stores so far starting on the left "Mjiggles grill" "Krios Milk" "Pat Riots" "Abercrombie and Fitch" "The Drunken Clam" "Gamestop" "Fire and Ice" "Phed O' Bears Toys"
I've tested Huntington and it's Great with big G :thumbsup: and best part is, that it's diagonal :)
New mall is looking great, as I said before. But when drawing I got and idea for your mall: make a /\ shaped roof for center part and cut the brownies of above of Tropicana sign :-\
The drunken clam LOL

ive added awnings and changed the entrance a bit. pics soon.

I've added a roof design as you can see. The glass will be opaque when i render it, there is stuff inside, but i turned opacity off right now cause it makes the renderer incredibly slow. Don't know whats going on in the center of the dome, better fix that though. those boxes coming out of the glass are going to be entrances/exits. There will be food shops in the long parts, and the dome part will be full of tables and booths to eat in. Any suggestions on the roof design? maybe spice up the park a bit?
Yeah, "better" park for the roof. Add small kiosks or benches there. Maybe a cafe :-\ And one question, will those textures be final? Because they look kind of plastic :/
In Frankfurt, I was up in the Main Tower together with Tag_one and GeoffHaw. Here we saw a lot of roofs with gardens on top. First time I ever saw it this massive.
Here is one picture from the top:

Looking great Pat Riot. May I suggest some benches to the park-tile, because you can't place props there.

I had so much fun making the pond, I decided to put a pool on the final corner. In the 3rd corner, I put a "BLaM Store", and I added roof junk to the IMAX and BLaM Store. Heres what I have left to do.
1. Add Railings to the pool and park, So people don't fall of the edge!
2. Change the names of the stores on the left right and back so theres more variety.
3. Texture
4. Nightlights
I will probably finish before school starts on Wednesday.

At night. Each side has one neon color (blue, pink, yellow, green). When they all meet in the middle makes for some cool stuff. idk if this will work though, i will have to see a simcity render.

HAHA...i will give you a second to laugh. This started out as an MSN joke between me and krio....but then i decided to complete it.
name=Pepsi Tower (duh!)
As I said at simcities, you should make lightcourt (hole in the middle) for building, because it looks so "fat" that it could take more nature light for interior. Or something. And of course PEPSI IS GO(O)D.
Pepsi=corrupted.
Tropicana Mall=sorting out some render errors.

The right endzone section would be the equivilant of the Superfan Section in college football. Bottom the home and away tunnels will be placed on that side, so the away team has to face the rowdiest fans and the home team can rile em up ;D
The Left endzone is a very small waterfront section, it will have a "boardwalk"ish thing above the seats with lots of fun stuff. The sidelines will be built up a lot more, with press boxes, lots more seats, skyboxes, concourses,
on the big wall on the left side (endzone wall) i will put up the patriots retired numbers, as well as some "pictures" from famous moments. I havnt decided where to put the super bowl banners yet.
No Pepsi :'( :'(
Stadium looks cool, I've no good Yankee football stadium in my plugin-folder. And hopefully you get those render erros solved.
bengt-thanks.

Thundercrack- i was working on gillete, but thats on hold. this is a kind of improvised patriots stadium.
Alright, heres some teasers on somthing else i will work on, with the stadium, while i wait to mod tropicana.
These are teaser pics from somthing i made in about 20 minutes. when complete, it will be an indoor beach. I wasnt too worried about textures, exspecially for the wood. since its indoors and won't be very visible, i made it a poorly textured wood.

Now the stadium. Im lost on this one. The original plan was for the back to be waterfront, but i also want the sidelines and front endzone to be below ground like gillete. so what im thinking is making this one of those hill buildings, that is made to be placed on a hill.
Not bad at all Pats not bad at all...
Good job on the new bleachers, they'll compiment the field well. A few questions however. It seems to me that the seats them selves are too large. Typically they will over hang the metal or cement(in this case) floor below them with room on the next level for people's feet, then the next one, on down the line. These look to sit right on top of each level of cement, and actually be recessed a bit so that cement juts out in front of the seat(though not much.) There's simply no where for peoples feet.
Also, I'd be curious to see how you've done the back and sides.
Lastly, I'd be willing to help you out with making models, as well as the modding to make timed props out of them. It annoys me a bit (a lot actually &sly) to have a well made field or stadium and then have it be lifeless, and there's lots of 'em around. Always thought that's something Maxis actually got right, and then most batters have just overlooked because they were in too much of a hurry. Given I've got some experience in dealing with that area, I'd be glad to offer some aid.
Again, the look and feel really is well done.
Chris
Going along very nicely! The night lights seem to complement the bleachers pretty well.
I also see that you have some lighting rig in 3ds max now ;D
chrisadams-yep i completely forgot about it...what i did was make a giant stair case, then just add wood boxes where the seats are...shoulda paid more attention. but the back is like an entrance, with glass windows, doors etc.
Autovino-thanks. yep the bleachers where in gmax, but the stadium is 3ds. I also tried to get another thing (sun and sky or somthing) in, like you said, but it took to long to preview.
Workin on this for travis.
do you think this is too short? and will the light cone work in game if i don't include the feild in the rendering?

Heres the park im working on for Schulmanators MD "Monkey Island", found in the Best Sellers section. I've put some stuff in all four corners, and think im done modeling. tell me if theres anything that needs work.
I will finish texturing tonight or tommorow afternoon.
top corners are gold banana fountains and open grass
bottom corners are curious goerge fountains with benches and walkways
thing in the center is the man himself, curious george, in a crown of bananas. Do you think the gradient i put over curious G's pic is too opaque? (as in it would be better to see more details?)

OMG could it be Fenway?? that sure looks like the green monster!! GO SOX!! ;D
A simple but very effective park Pat. Nice work. As for the football field perhaps "scruffing" it up a bit (dirt traiils in centre) might make it look better? It depends on what your looking for of coarse. I haven't used lights yet so I can't accurately comment on it but it looks ok ()stsfd()
Take care..
skyliner-yep, it is fenway
dogfight-thanks, the feild was only there to show how the lights work, it is not mine.
I've finished the "walls" and started to work on bullpens and dugouts. After that i will do onfeild details, like the tarp, scoreboard on the monster, advertisements etc. etc. Then i will start working on the seating. Im having trouble finding good pics of the dugouts and bullpens, mostly dugout. I did the bullpen off of some not so good live earth/google earth screens, and the dugouts off of my memory.

will be 260 m tall, called papelbon tower.
More pictures, OR ELSE :bomb:
almost done with paps, ill get a render if i can. ive also started a 99 restraunt in GMAX because its my favorite restraunt and everyone has been wanting this (who lives in new england...ive also heard a lot of bertuccis requests)
oops forgot the pic :p
im working on triangularing (New word!) those boxes on the right. then i need to add the slanted roof parts. This is about 80 percent based of the one in my town.

It looks promising. If you want some wood-textures, I can provide them IF you give your awning model to me :P
Krio-i would do that deal, BUT
unfortuantly, yesterday somthing happened and ive lost about 70% of my things on my computer. I still have 3ds, plugins, and my itunes, but thats just about it. So all my old scenes are gone, because they were saved on a different account (the one where the problem happen), and so is gmax, which held the 99. So now i have no projects (luckily i have both the exported files for the park, look for it soon!), and have decided to start working on some buildings on BC's campus. I will show you guys pics soon.
Krio-ill pm u bout the awning.
heres where im at with the BC dorm. Next i will add window frames and facade details, then I will do the roof.

And sorry about the crash-thingy. You should backup your files to memory-stick :-\

Hey PR:
The papelbon tower is beautiful. The sun reflections are very well done. As soon as I get up and running again I'll be asking your advice as to how it's done ;D
Nice work so far on that building, Pat Riot! :thumbsup:

Excellent! The trees look awesome, where did you get them? Maybe more roofjunk too?
grater b-they come with 3ds, i just changed the leaf colors. The roof junk is even less in RL, I add those green fans there to make it more interesting.
Looking nice these textures! Good progress! :thumbsup:
A nice building so far, I notice a few things with your model though: the roof has no overhang, seems almost a little too small for this building the walls are extending further than the roof. The door in the courtyard seems very small and the windows on the first and second floors on the entrance part are too close to the corner. This is almost impossible to achieve without having a window going around the corner.
And I would say render the bat without the courtyard park. It is much easier to make custom LODs and mostly makes the bat more usable and looking better.
kwakelaar-wow thought you were dogfight for a second ;D The roof i didnt think had an overhang in real life but i will check. Thanks for the help.
I agree with kwakelaar about the yard, custom lod is better option and I can replace trees with statue of me $%#Ninj2
I could've used a little more cowbell.
Amazing modeling bro.
Park-Ready for upload
Dorm-Ready for Render, i decided kwakelaar was right and deleted the park (kept the trees)
So whats next?
The monkey island Capitol Building and this
Wolverine Tower
60+ floors. Can someone please tell me why it looks like theres no windows on the side or the back when i render the front? the thing in the back is the beginnings of a base.

josef-cowbell?
hmm. can't quite tell but my best guess would be that you first made the planar windows on the front and one side and them duplicated and moved them over the the back and other side and then applied a twist modifier to the whole thing (or at least this is how I would do it). You probably forgot to flip the planar windows (so that the normals would face outside) and as a result of that the windows on the side and back have normals facing inside, not outside, allowing light/visibility to go through them. To fis them you can just add a normal modifier to those windows and check flip normal. (if that's what I think what you have)
hope that helps! Great building btw, looks really cool :thumbsup:
yea, that was the issue. what i did was i detached the faces on the back, flipped the normals (like you said), then arrayed them again, and it worked!
too lazy to censor so i deleted this post :p
Awesome BAT, grater P. This will be more awesome when you add nightlights &apls
A very good job of not "over twisting" Pat. Some people (just go to turbo squid web site) tend to do too much. &apls
decisions decisions...as you look, i need you to think of two three things
Red or Blue?
Should the ground reflections stay? (the reflections where the object being reflected is not visible, because its an invisible image from google earth).
Is this ready for nightlighting?

no that is not green, it is a turquiosy blue :bomb:
Turquise is better. I would make billboards coming from the wall and not as 'props on the roof' because wall-billboards would be more realistic ;)
Yeah, the billboards look a little tacked on at the last minute, where as they would probably be designed in at this scale. Can you do both colours? I can't decide.
yea, billboards definetely need fixing. Diggis-Thats kind of were im at. Im going to darken the blue a bit then decide.
ignore the billboards, ill fix those.
would you guys agree that this is the best so far? or do you think i should stick with turquoise. I like them all, so i need your help.
CENSORED ;D
Hey Pat. The new color is by far the best. It's a keeper no doubt :thumbsup:
I gotta ask how do you get those amazing glass reflections. I'm assuming a reflection and gloss map?
It looks great &apls
ive made a new base, finished nightlights. I cant get any good pics because all the spotlights and stuff are there. Once its rendered I will show it.

Is there any particular reason to use something as tasteless as PB for your work? I mean, you are aware that there are a tremendous amount of victims of paedophile predators and to my opinion there is no humour to be found in promoting this PB idea. Its just not fun and I think rather insulting to victims to make fun of their ordeals.
This is just my personal opinion and you are free to do what you want as long as it is within the rules of this site. I have however taken a look at some of the "funny" cartoons involving PB and it is rather sickening. I would kindly ask you to re-consider the further spread of this. Thank you.
Can you provide better picture of Capitol building? IMO it looks nice and banana dome is hilarious $%Grinno$%
Though I can make jokes about everything, I modified message for being polite towards Serkanner, other members and the rules. I am sorry.
CENSORED SO NOT TO OFFEND ANYONE ;D :thumbsup: &apls

to both Krio and pat riot:
I am not the one who is offended, but the millions of people who have been a victim might when you do advertise this as a "normal" part of your work. I would really reconsider using the icon of filth.
However, I am not the person in charge here on this site so if the powers that are think its okay who am I to protest?
Hey Pat: Monkey Island Capital (LOL). Very original, save a banana for me :D

After talking with krio, ripplejet, and the rest of the staff, I have decided to change the name to the "wolverine Tower" (michigan football color setup, figured it work nicely), and also so we can get our team room!

wow...today has been a crazy day for TG. anyway, now that its settled down, I've been able to finish the ex-wolverine tower. Reason I say ex is because after my most recent changes the name doesn't fit. Im thinking somthing like 1228 Grater Place? Only problem is in "TG PR 1228 Grater Place" it looks like its TG Patriots_1228 and then Grater Place. o well, ill sort out the name later.
Anyway, what i've done
-added the base
its less nubish, this time it features 4 floors, 2 are boxy, 2 are in the shape of the bottom floor of the tower. theres water things (cant call em fountains, lets call em displays) in between stair cases, and there are two outer decks to walk around.
set up Mr
added a sun/sky, mental ray renderer, and cautistics, although i doubt i did them right.
Severe window changes
First thing you'll notice is its about 80 percent impossible to see any ground reflections. They are still there, but barely. The reason being it looked kinda like a creme savor with them. second, ive added a diffuse map from the stock pile of glass textures DA sent me. thanks! 3rd, ive added a better bump, although it does do much here.
Window Frames-
changed them from gold to a more realistic silvery metal.
ready for export! any takers? autovino seems busy and josef is having trouble getting it the exports to work.
Pretty ;D
Nice work patriots-Lets hope you'll realese :)
Much better than previous one! Excellent job Riotman!
For name, what about another Bank of America tower :D :D No, call it e.g Cheddar Plaza
Gorgonzola house :P
Great job PR. Very modern looking. The base (which in many cases is overlooked) looks great. Can I get a closeup (of the base)? :thumbsup:

-MI Capitol (gotta finish railings, then do the lower 2 floors)

At the request of the LEX scrutineers, i have decided to add nightlights to the MI park once I fix my BAT4MAX. can anyone help me?
im thinking of combining the MI park 2 and MI Capitol into an MI pack.
I can do lighting for you :) You know my gmail-address, send the file there with textures so I render it too. I'm already thinking the lighting :P
MI pack?? Sounds delish! :thumbsup:
on the fiftyith try I get B4M to work. I'll export the unnamed tower tmr, and hopefully the park later.
Krio- Sure, you can do it.
my comp is too old slow, so the render will be delayed a while. Park should be redone soon, as should capitol.
right now capitol is shaping up to 6x4ish, and 6 stories tall, so it shouldnt be too tough of a render. Ive done some work on the base, I still have 3 sides to do though, plus a few underground entrances!

Wow! The capitol is looking AWESOME!!! :thumbsup: &apls
Tower still hasnt been rendered, im hoping i can do it over the next week,
park V2 will be ready this weekend probs
And Capitol is pretty much done being modeled
Ive done the base for all four sides. I dont see any issues except for the tall doors on the side, the push bar is raised too high. I understand those doors are like, two yao mings tall, but I intended for them to be that way.
Also i may do something more to the side tall arched windows, they are kinda boring.

Both the capitol and the tower have way to many objects. They won't render. Im going to be spending the next few days (although these things turn into weeks) cutting down till i have it under 200, then i will try to export agian.

You could make the neon downtown's lines little thinner?

Beckett V2. Much work has been done since this pic.
I've realigned the sunlights on the base with the tower.
I've completed texturing.
I've started nightlights.
Excellent job Grasshopper. Just for fun, can you post closer picture from those stairs :P

This is just the basic outline of the building plus a rough draft of the parking garage.

BECKETT:Im done with the base, which i will show soon. im busy troubleshooting some mental ray issues with it atm.
&apls looking good so far there Pats!!!
Good start so far. how many meters are you making each floor? And how tall is the ground floor?

more progress
jmyers:Ground is about seven, the rest are between 4-5, cept the top, which is probably 7-8 (because it needs some depth since the pool is on its roof.)
looking good :thumbsup:
how tall is the tower supposed to be?
scotty: 110, mines 140. thanks

Finished facade details on the front of the parking garage, as well as "installed" the glass. Now you see how messed up my MR sun is at the moment, look at those shadows. its there to keep my workspace well lit
&apls good job so far on that Pats!!
Yes, it looks very nice so far, Pat Riot!
had to start making some triple deckers for my CJ

dang Pats that is sweet!!! I love that tripple decker, so is are you going to have multiple colors for them?
pat:yea, usually light colors and brown are common for this style...kinda odd since you don't associate light blue and light yellow with boston.
heres a pic, although this is from wochester which is an entirely different city, its the same idea/colors

All colors are exported, waiting for travis to get on msn now :p
Great looking houses. These are going to be hugely popular :thumbsup:
I will say so as I will download in a heart beat!!!
Kind of reminds me of the San Francisco rowhouses, very cool!
Well, for those who havn't heard, my computer died a month ago. All my projects, cept the triple deckers which i had already sent to travis, are dead. Now I am back up and going, with a new powerful computer that will allow me to BAT my lifes mission: The entire prudential complex.

The prudential complex consists of the Prudential Tower, 111 Huntington, 101 Huntington, the Hynes Convention Center, Sheraton Hotel, Mandarin Oriental, and three apartment buildings, all connected to a large mall at the base. The complex is about 26x18 tiles. I have begun at the Hynes Convention Center, in the back right corner.

A term you will hear me use a lot during this is artistic license. These recreations will be about 95 percent accurate, with mostly every detail cept for a few, mostly on the roof.

here is my start.
As you can see, my projects have shipped up to boston.
Here is a list of all my ongoing projects:
-Triple Deckers: In packaging stage
-Prudential: Started Hynes Convention Center
-Boston W2W's: Making a small 3x2 block located right next to the Custom House tower.
Looking great! :thumbsup: Keep going like this and you might get this to look almost as good as my station! ::)
patriots looking real good there!!!

finished the front building thing of the Hynes.
That looks pretty good so far. I'll be interested to see what it looks like when it's textured. Good stuff.
&apls looking good there Pats!!!
