some roof junk:

Nice fans. Isnt it a waste of money to make gold fan blades?

autoVino · January 05, 2008, 06:06:25 PM

I was going more for copper/bronze (I first used the default copper preset, but there are some problems with it... that is it doesn't look like copper at all!... I changed it up a bit) , but yes it is, unless you have a lot of money

oh yeah, another project: bank one building in lexington

you have very neat handwriting in paint lol. Good start on that building.

autoVino · January 06, 2008, 09:41:11 AM

thanks :-)
here's another render with some more roof work done:

I don't know what's going on with the artifacts at the side top of the building... probably a fg issue.
today I'm probably going to work hard on school stuff and other things so I probably won't quite get to anything on bat.

Hi Auto... nice cooling tower.

autoVino · January 13, 2008, 10:29:21 AM

thanks.

redid the night windows using unwrap uvw. still not quite perfect but I learned (am learning) a new technique.

this building is largely procedural excepth the night library texture... the windows that is.

I like the amount of "busy" that is going on in this version......the different hues of the suites and offices is wonderful, gives the perfect impression.

Pat Riot · January 14, 2008, 05:27:30 AM

as I said before...some of the best nightlights ever!

Pat · January 14, 2008, 04:35:17 PM

auto just wonderful progress here

That looks awesome!!! The nightlights are perfect,, the height is perfect, the overall texture and size is perfect,

THIS BUILDING IS PERFECT!!!

Just wondering, but will it be diagonal? That would be even cooler!

Pat Riot · January 20, 2008, 04:56:20 AM

lol, i tried using that nightmap, don't think I did it right, they came out green! great job auto, amazing lights.

autoVino · January 20, 2008, 07:00:07 PM

sounds a lot like light artifacts. Do you have the 3ds max 9 sp1 and sp2? [sp1] [sp2]

here are the most recent images that i posted up at simtrop but not here.

here's another tutorial that I made on night maps [1]
here's another tutorial that I made on procedural texturing [2]
okay, okay, that's enough...

final?

That's an affirmative, you are go for release.

flame1396 · January 21, 2008, 04:44:12 PM

Final? Are you kidding? That is sweeeeet! I plan on downloading this soon.

Would be cool if you rendered it on a diagonal so it could fill some niches in many people's cities.

all it would take is to rotate it 45 degreese... easey.
so I'll try to get in a diagonal version as well.

Heblem · January 21, 2008, 05:02:05 PM

Thats a great idea for to make night lights, thanks!

Excellent building

Pat Riot · January 21, 2008, 05:51:50 PM

damn thats more then final auto!

you must have a fast computer if its easy to rotate a full building 45 degrees. I was going to rotate that tower to be diagonal but it takes so long to turn 1000+ objects.

the design isn't anything that will blow you away, but based on the quality of the modeling, materials, lights, textures, etc., i'd have to rank this as one of the 3-5 most well done BATs ive seen.
