With great help from Volt and Xiziz I have managed to come up with the following lots which will eventually be released to the LEX, but it will probably take some time before I can safely do that.
So in the meantime here are some teasers of what I have been doing the last month or two:

This is what I have accomplished so far, but I will continue my work when I find the time.
I would also like to send a HUGE thanks to Voltaire for his patience and help (Without him these LOTs wouldn´t exist)...
That´s all for now folks!
Inte illa! :)
Tackar, det värmer när det kommer från en veteran som du!
(Thanks for commenting, it feels good to get compliments from a veteran ;)
Härligt jobb där. Ser oerhört detaljerade ut, och jag tror att det är en hel del där ute som verkligen vill ha lots till dessa flygmaskiner.
Excellent work on the lots. It looks like a great selection and the lots aren't too cluttered. One thing I noticed though, is that the loading lift seems to be overlapping one of the trucks next to the plane on the top left corner of the first pic. Great work.

Excellent project how.
It cooperates.
However, there is one asking.
MD11 of FedEx. The type to which the freight door is open is the
modeling.
Could you wait till then because it opens it to the public shortly?

Absolutely, those planes sure look worth waiting for!
I don´t think any of the lots will be released until I feel everything is right, and that will take
at least a month or two I believe.
Thanks for Your wonderful creations Tabi, without them there wouldn´t be more than half of the lots above!

Swesim this is just wonderful stuff you are doing for the airports!!! &apls &apls
Thanks Pat!
Which way is best to package the lots when they will eventually be released?
Alt. 1: By Airline (all lots for that airline = more than one aircraft type in same ZIP)
Alt. 2: By Aircraft type (all lots for that aircraft = many lots)
Alt. 3: All lots separate (every lot released separately = many lots to download)
Other suggestions welcome. ;)
Ja precis sådär :) Allt blir mycket mer levande om man sätter in "människo props" på lotsen, eller hur ? ;)
Eng: Exactly what I had in mind
Swesim
It is very beautiful. My hope is distinguished by the airline.
And, there is asking.
Prop file that I have opened to the public. If possible, cannot you up-load it to a big site (SC4D file exchange orSTEX)?
I cannot up-load a technical problem. :'(
expects it of a wonderful work. &apls
thanks
Tabi-san, if you let me know which of your packs you would like uploaded I can arrange to do that for you and in your name.
@BarbyW: I believe he is talking about the airplane prop packs (probably the newer ones)that is available for download from his own site (see my aircraft thread (http://sc4devotion.com/forums/index.php?topic=3016.0)).
I am looking forward to seeing them on the LEX!
@tabi-san: I believe it is better to let Barby upload Your wonderful props as I can´t do it in Your name I believe.
A big thank You for them though, it is Your planes that has made my lots possible!
Swesim, I will wait for him to reply although I have downloaded all the prop packs I could find on the site.
@BarbyW
Thanks!
List of prop that wants to ask
・A340 pack
・A320 pack
・757 pack
・DC10 pack
・MD11 pack
・L1011 pack
・747-400 pack
・Cargo Aircraft pack
・Military packing
The Concorde and A380 are edited again.
The number of a little more aircraft is scheduled to be increased.
We wish to express our gratitude for your cooperation. :)
I shall get those packs to the LEX today. Thank you, tabi-san.
All 9 packs are now on the LEX. I made dats of the individual models and descs and added User Visible Name Key to the descs.
Kan flyene flyttes nærmere gaten, slik at de er forbundet med terminal?
Nei, det vil ikke se pent ut, men hvis du ønsker kan du selvsagt prøve deg frem i LE.
747:ene og CRJ:ene er laget som en modell sammen med gaten for å ikke å få dette problemet.
Hvis du vill ha flyene dokket til gate må du lage nye models, og det klarer jeg ikke...
Problemet er nemlig at gatene havner "under" flyet når du plaserer flyet ved gaten.
Summary in english:
Krbe asked if it would be possible to get the planes closer to the gates so it would look as they were connected.
I answered that it is indeed possible, but that it would not look good as the aircraftprops are placed "on top of" the gateprops.
This is why the ACB jets (747s and CRJs) are modeled together with the gate as one model.
Since I don´t have the skills to remodel tabi´s aircraft this way I decided to place the aircraft slightly away from the gate trying to simulate arrival or departure.
//Fredrik
Det lyder som et problem med LOD'ene enten på flyene, på gaten eller begge.
Sound like a problem with the LOD's on either the planes, the gate or bort.

Special Thanks :thumbsup:
The following aircraft holds out and is producing it.

Having done a great number of airportlots and reached a dead end when trying to modd them to work the way I intend them to I decided to do something else transportrelated, busstops.
As the existing busstops didn´t quite match my needs I decided to customize a few of the existing ones using existing models.
Here are a few examples of what I´ve done so far:
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fv469%2FFredrik_Gelin%2FSimcity%25204%2FSWE_Busstop_1.jpg&hash=be4a7062823517685b5770f661996e60b13b09bd)

A more urban version with stonebase meant for commercial areas and can if desired be combined with the sandstone pedmalls and the PEG Foodcourts.
This one will have Shmail´s busstops and PEG´s CDK-M series as dependencies.
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fv469%2FFredrik_Gelin%2FSimcity%25204%2FSWE_Busstop_10.jpg&hash=e1b8e76089e813e26c1e824b6b1e312cd37bdc1b)
Based on the DPMO busstop on the STEX I lotted a busstop for PEG´s OWW2 and CDK-M series.
Dependencies will be DPMO busstop and PEG´s CDK-M and OWW2 series.
This one I´m having some trouble with getting the sims to use, so it will probably be released after the others.
All busstops have the same stats as the models used meaning that the ones using Shmails busstop design will have the stats of those and the one with the DPMO busstop will feature the same stats as that one once I get it to work properly.
Thats all for now folks!
That looks pretty nice! They were way too large to be used as RT , but looks well on the PEG lot. You wouldn't try making some other for intersections? I use Diagonal Intersection RoadTop SubwayBus Station (http://www.simtropolis.com/stex/details.cfm?id=14010&v=1) extensivly, as they're one of the few that don't give me a no-road zot, but they're a bit large too.
I suppose I could try something for intersections as well, I have so far come up with these:

This is the unknown busstop I asked about in another thread, I haven´t seen the busstop sign on any other lot, so I would be happy to know where it comes from.
Other than that BSC textures vol. 2 will be a dependancy along with the Maxis dats. (Simcity 1 & 2).

Since I am not very good at modding this large busstop only have the stats of the original Maxis busstation and no jobs.
The dependancies will likely be Simcity 1&2 from Maxis and PEGs SV foodcourts from the STEX.
As for the other busstops I have lotted the following among others:

This one uses Maxis busstation as building and various Maxis and GC props which means GCs mega prop pack will be a dependancy.

This one uses Schmails old Euro busstop as building and some Maxis props, so the only dependancy outside the Simcity dats will be Schmails busstops on the STEX.

This one will require the Simcity dats, simple busstops from STEX and PEG´s OWW2 lots to work.
The stats of the above busstops are the same as the buildings on them, this means that the ones with Maxis´s Busstops will have the same stats as Maxis busstation, the lots with Schmails busstops will feature the same stats as those while the ones with the simple busstops will provide the same stats as those lots.
You made some very nice busstops here.
The stats can be arranged by someone who knows how to do it?
But in all the pictures you can see clearly the problem I have with almost all busstops: they are way too large in comparison with cars, streetwidth and the surrounding buildings.
Could you do something about this? New bats.... a lot of work?
Changing the size of the busstops would require new bats.
Since I know nothing of the bat I´m sorry to tell You I won´t do anything about the size...
I think "Alt. 2: By Aircraft type (all lots for that aircraft = many lots)" should be better.
Hope for your lots :thumbsup:.
&apls Looking real good here Swesim!!!
Thank You all for Your encouraging words!
As for the airport lots I have a problem, I suppose I could try to release them as Landmarks (not functional ones) as everytime I try to get them to work as airportlots the game imediately COD when You place them...
The busstops however seem to be working fine as long as You don´t mind the stats.
I just don´t have much time for SC4 due to RL taking a lot of my time, so I don´t know when I will find the time to prepare any lots for upload.
Thanks for Your support though!
Swesim: you should read this forum for the answer to your CTDs with airports:
http://sc4devotion.com/forums/index.php?board=240.0
If you post some pictures of your lots the AC Team may accept them for inclusion in the next functional airport set.
Thanks for the linkie Barby!
I don´t have the time to do anything about it in any near future though, and I doubt that my lots would be of any interest to the AC Team the way they are at the moment.
Should anyone read this that has the time or energy to do the modding I might be interested to supply the lots though.
I'd like to download this cargo lots pack, but I cannot find it in the LEX. Is it still available?
Seeing a need for offset lots to use under powerlines etc I came up with the following in LE:

I was wondering though if it would be ok to release the lot with PEGs stream in it considering the terms of his EULA?
You can release anything providing you do not include models belonging to someone else and reference the original model packs.
OK, that´s more or less what I thought, but I was somewhat doubtful after reading Your posts in the CAN-AM project. ;)
Swesim,
That is a nice addition to the game.
I have just one question: would it be possible to make a pathway go under the elevated network?
This would of course mean an offset prop with pathway, but maybe someone would be so kind to make one?

The problem with the CAN-AM is that to make it work correctly the model file for the water has to be included in the mod. This is possible where permission is given - ie for SG and CAL canals - but not where an EULA prohibits it.
