looks very good, will look even better if you will change the WaterDepthForMaxAlpha in the Terrain Properties exemplar from 38 to - let's say - 10 m

I love the new project here Chris nice little niche you're filling here.

BTW welcome back we've all missed you, this used to be a thread I visited daily and I missed checking it. Also the dam you made is there any chance of a release it looks spectacular.

Hey Chris, looking great there.  Glad my edges worked for you.  Once you are done modelling this we need to talk about adding them to my streams.

looking very good there chris!!!

Hello chris

I had not seen your new project, it is interressant. 

The model is very beautiful, but I am a little disappointed with the textures... Maybe that it would be better with textures photo realistes. you have to look on the site CGtextures?

looking very good  I'll be looking forward to get my hands on those models

Haven't worked any more on the WFK lately I'm afraid.  But I did work on another small project today.  I'm always disappointed with the variety in police and fire departments available, so I've been wanting to do one.  I decided on a local one I drive by occasionally, a fairly simple metal constructed one.  The fire trucks inside are models I exported from Swamper's American Fire Units mod, so credit to him for those .





More later,

Very nice Chris. I agree with you regarding the lack of realistic police and fire stations. This is great for those rural areas where taxpayer dollars don't go to fancy firehouses.

looks great mate, the only thing I would say is missing is the tower for drying the hoses and housing the alarm so the volunteer fighters can hear it.  Not sure if they have them in the states but they're very common back in NZ.

It's a bit blurry, but this is one from my home town.  They pull the hoses up on ropes after a fire to dry them out and at the very top is the alarm.

fantastic work

Great idea. And there IS definately a lack of fire and police stations as well as hospitals.

The type is well chosen - cheep and fast metall construction, perfect for not so rich areas. Saw buildings like these in Turkey, too.

When modding the lot you should mod it that way that one station should cover a hole medium map (like marasts sheriff station). For rural areas this should be enough.

My thoughts exactly

Far as I know, they don't.  I'm not even certain that our stations around here use alarms, the calls all go out on the pagers/radio I know (I've got several friends in the fire department).  I might look around though.

fantastic work

Hey Jacky

I'd thought the same thing, but then again I mod all my fire stations (maxis and plugins as needed) to cover twice the area Maxis gave them anyway(with costs adjusted of course.)


Unless someone sees something to improve, the modeling is done.  Also, any suggestions for the lot, or is it good as is?

Chris

[calibanX]

I like the lot. It works well. I can't imagine changing a thing.
