Title: Leo's Lot editor essays
Post by: Leodido on August 14, 2009, 11:53:15 PM
Hi all,

Recently I've been discovering the lot editor and am slowly planning a MD. I'm new around here and I would like some feedback on my attemps at relotting bats.

This is one of my first tries, let me know what you think of it.

Great work on these Leo, I love your LOTs, they looks wonderful. Maybe you can add some props like floras paths and more people to make it looking more alive.
Take care,
-Arthur. :thumbsup:

Your lots are really good Leo, I agree with with Arthur if you add more flora props and sims your lots will be even better.

Thank you for your comments, at the moment I'm trying to improve the animations on all my lots.
I'll show you some results soon.

Very nice lotting work Leodido!  &apls
As for the church I personally would use only one kind of tree, this adds some calmness (if that's the right word) and aesthetics to the lot. With one kind of tree the church will stand out more and your lot looks more natural. To get some variation in the appearance of the trees you can rotate some.
I really like the look of your palace lot. Especially the effect of two different pavement patterns works out very well and forms a great transition between the plaza with the trees and the building.

Looking forward to your next projects :thumbsup:

thanks Tag_one, that is encouraging :)

I modified a little bit the palace with more people, it may need more tho.

And this is a small market I made.

Recently I've been working on creating a bus stop that generates bus automata for my MD. here it is.
I've made the zig zag overlay myself not too sure about it, what do you guys think about it?

Nice lotting! :thumbsup: As for the zig-zag thingy, I think it's too wide. Something like twice narrower should look better :)
