VDK Watertaxi and Harbour Bus

vester · March 12, 2007, 03:42:47 PM

I have made textures for the edge around the front of the bridge and for the AC-Unit.

Thought the boat looked a little short, so made a longer version of it too:

I have started to make a series of different color harbour buses. Not sure which colors it will end up with. At the moment I have tried 10 extra colors.
Thinking that it will end up with 5 colors including the yellow one.

Great water taxi/bus, Vester. I like the yellow actually. Are these gonna run on the ferry network (which I have not had much luck with, lol) ? I wish there was a way to have them run in a canal network. Like the water busses in Ft. Flauderdale, FL. That would be sweet indeed. Can't wait to see more.

Have been working on a new color version of the harbour bus:

The red line is going to be thicker.

Kimcar, I agree with you - this is gonna be awesome to have in the game!

vester · March 14, 2007, 05:16:37 PM

Thanks for the comments. Glad you like them.

My plan is to make two or three color versions more.

Next of, I might try to a water taxi terminal for the canals.

There will be two mods of each model: a replacement mod and a additional mod.
The first one overwrites the default passenger ferry and the other just add an extra passenger ferry type.

All version are looking great!

Here one that is inspired by some pictures that SweSim showed me, of a ferry in Gothenburg:

Looking great, vester - can't wait!

jacqulina · March 18, 2007, 02:11:48 AM

awesome work and the detail is amazing

Gaston · March 18, 2007, 10:07:29 PM

I really like the yellow and the white versions. The others are great as well I just would be most likely to use the yellow and white.

Here is a new color version:

As you might can see, I have fixed a few errors on the model (the jagged edge on the back). Still having one to go.

kimcar · March 20, 2007, 06:07:55 AM

Great to see all this choice of color . Great job .

vester · March 21, 2007, 07:45:06 AM

Here is yet another color version:

I will try to do one or two more, then I am off to get modding.

That takes for ever, to get them modded into additional mods, so you can have them more then one of them installed at the same time.

I am now done reworking the model.

Welcome to SC4D. Sure you will enjoy your stay here.

What an honour for me, that you chose my thread to make your first post at sc4d.

This one is done for Praiodan. This is inspired by the colors of the S-Bahn in Berlin:

Those colors was really hard to get just right.
