Wonderful LOTing and the textures are top-notch.

Ill let the pic do the talking, more to follow in a few.....

would it be too much of a hassle to release a version with white walls instead of bricks? (ala SM malls)?


edit:

any release dates? (not that am rushin, im just soo excited for this one)

[EDGE4194]

Wow ... what a great piece of lotting Ryan! You have done true justice to the model. 

complete agreement. 

[Filasimo]

hey guys thanks for all the comments and im glad you all like the lot. i had as much pleasure lotting it as you guys had the pleasure of keeping up with the project. and pare: if its the model ya want changed its an unlikelihood bc Heblem made the model. anyways guys ill give out one more teaser pic before i give a full update which i will give later on today

note: The mall does have nightlights. I just forgot to power the mall before i took the pics and was switching from day to night mode  hope you all enjoy!

[edit] since the taking of this pic i scaled back on some props mainly the umbrellas so i can add more trees ill explain why when i give my update and more goodies

Alright Alright! I am proud to unveil the full plaza mall lot in its entirety. It was my first time to ever put the shots i took together to show the whole mall. Both pics shown shows the mall during the day and during the night with some day shots chipped in. Whats left is 2 extra textures Chris Adams is making for me to add to the parking lots ( theres some lines visible on the main drive and me no like bad medicine!  ) After that is final packaging and readme development and its off for scrutineering and uploading. Expect a release very very very soon! I had a blast and some hairpulling in the process of lotting this awesome mall Heblem made and this is just the beginning of the great lots coming from me. Expect more lots in the future!  Tomorrow I will be posting zoomed in shots of parts of the mall so you all can see how detailed the lot is and what you can expect to see ingame in your suburban areas. That most likely wont be til monday afternoon ( gotta wake up at 4am for a huge project im doing at one of my stores in my territory for the company from 5am to 10am ) but im sure these pics will keep ya waiting eagerly to see more hehe. Anyways without further ado:

Day shot:

Night Shot:

Thats all for now! Next update Monday afternoon. STAY TUNED! 

[Edit] For you who are wondering if the lot will be TEd, the answer is yes. Only the main entrances will be and not the smaller ones since it will look tacky. As for the Krispy kreme, some restaurants by the mall do not have mall acess

OMG WOW!!!!!!! What can I say BUT WOW

[figui]

What can I say BUT WOW

mmmm...  what about WOOOOOOWWWWW?

[Heblem]

Well Ryan im impressed count with me for a future projects (if i need lotting or anything else) as I told you by msn i cant describe this beauty, just excellent work!!! the lot is very well done and detialed and still impressed about how you worked with the limit of 1600 props...

I would also like to thank to ome people who worked with me, also this is one of my best projects so far...

[Pat]

Awwwwwwwwwe Hab your welcome my friend.... This by far is the greatest singular lot to hit the LEX...

[WalkingSnake]

Somebody's been doing some texturing. 

Great job, great lot, I love it.

[Andreas]

The size alone is enough for a "Wow" effect, but the amount of work that went into the model, the lot and all the additional stuff is astounding. Great job! 

[Filasimo]

Thanks for all the kind replies guys. Its 4:20am and im fixing to head out to the store for my work project. Also another fact i left out. I did mention i scaled back on some props so i can add more trees was because a lot alone allows only 1280 items. This includes base textures, overlays, props, etc etc. Well knowing how large this lot was i had to pretty much balance it all out which is why i did the lotting in phases.. you can easily say i lotted this 6 times  ...Anyways Stay Tuned for the next update!

This is looking very good, Ryan!

[Edit] For you who are wondering if the lot will be TEd, the answer is yes. Only the main entrances will be and not the smaller ones since it will look tacky. As for the Krispy kreme, some restaurants by the mall do not have mall acess 

Just a reminder... every TE tile in your lot will require its own Data line in the LotConfig exemplar.
If (as I understood) you already had exactly 1,280 items, you will not be able to add any TE tiles to that...

[Filasimo]

well shucks.....what do you guys think? scale back on props to make it TE enabled or keep it as it is?

[M4346]

I personally don't like TE LOTs and would prefer more props. But hey! That's my view. 

[DFire870]

I don't like TE lots (especially since if you put them in the wrong spot, traffic will use them as a shortcut) that much either,so I say keep it as is.
