Sydney Opera House - For one night only!

[callagrafx]

Thank you everyone, most kind.  I am happy with the final result, especially the crispness of the render... Doing this did take me back to the golden days of SC4 BATing, and I suppose one of the things that caused me to stop was there was (practically) nothing that hasn't been done before, except the Opera House... And I've always tried to produce something that was unique.  I won't say this is the last time, because if inspiration strikes, who knows?

Oh by the way, it IS a darknite version

Really great, I'm so happy that the result turns out so fine 
    So will it be renderred as a whole or seperated? I suggest the house and the base being seperated so we will be able to use the house part alone (sometimes). At now,  the base part looks so long and wide that it will look empty if few props are set on it. Then too many props (from different MEGA packs) may add the length of the dependency list.

The "base" is part of the structure and part of the rendered model... the sail elements are just the roof    It IS a big expanse of not a lot, but that couldn't be helped.  Sometimes less is more

Sweet jesus, the darknite version (well, render, not with maxis night) looks wonderful.... Can't wait to put my hands on it!

[callagrafx]

(well, render, not with maxis night)

Could you clarify?

[art128]

If i'm not mistaken, the first picture where you showed the nightlight in-game were Darknite, but without the darknight mod? ( looked bright to me, that's why i thought it was a maxis night render and not Darknite one )

But it clarified my mind when you showed that last one with the two night renders.


Hope you get what I mean this time.

Amazing cal! You will be remember among cannal users and SOH lovers

[noahclem]

Truly breathtaking    Is it possible you've outdone yourself?

Aha!!! That shows how long I've been away... I didn't know there was such a thing as darknite mod

Yeah, it's basically a crime mod, which eradicates minor crime but increases major super villain crimes. A modded search light appears atop your main police station.

Now I've been educated in the difference between Maxis nite and Dark nite (besides the obvious visual one) I'll be releasing this as both Maxis and Darknite.  As the model comes in around 5mb they will be separate downloads on the LEX, so if you don't need the DN version, you won't have an extra 5MB taking up your plugins 

The Goddess will be LOTing these, but she's an incredibly busy lady so there is no current timescale for completion.  You've waited this long for the Opera House, I'm sure you can wait a little longer 

Oh yeah... it's probably going to be a conditional landmark 

[BarbyW]

Oh yeah... it's probably going to be a conditional landmark 

If the Goddess can remember how to do it

If the Goddess can find it in her menu. 

[Serkanner]

I will be very patient 

[BarbyW]

Just made a start so nothing startling. The marrast embankments seem the best for this but the lot will need careful placing.

If the Goddess can find it in her menu. 

I have it done properly now so can find it everytime

Looking at that, how about I make some table/chair parasol props that are more in keeping with the building?  Don't think the beer garden ones are working for me

Suits me if you want to/can do that. The ones at the front are your Fosters benches.
