Hello to all,

You may remember me from other BAT projects like the Urban Canals, the trees mods, and many more....( <-- Troy McLure...  ;) ) but the time is arrived to go for something different ( for me ). Something more standard... so I decided to BAT my first proper building for SC4  ;D

To make things easier, I decided to start BATting the building where I live actually, in Palma de Mallorca:

This is a picture I took yesterday afternoon, while coming back from work.




I couldnt resist to start modelling ( inspiration perhaps...  ::) ) , and this was the result at 05:00AM this morning ... ( yes, I met the bed only two and half hours tonight, so I am a bit tired.... $%Grinno$% )



Once I went back from work this afternoon, I had some time to work a bit more with the building



And slowly slowly, the front face of the building starts to be complete....



So I started with the roof, because I needed the shape to continue building...



And this is the progress so far:





I hope you like it  ;D

There can never be enough buildings of that type in game. I think your model looks very realistic so far, I'm anxious to see more.
PS: LOL, everyone is using prepos floor texture now (including me :D).

Great beginning! Oh, does it bring memories...
Anyway in 2 weeks I'll be in beautiful Spain again!
One question though: why do you model every wall as a separate piece? You could just take a box convert it to editable poly  and with subdivisions get there in much more precise fashion I think...
Those things "inside" are they really inside or is it just a flat image in the "window"?

Ah, yes, very typical construction and what a cool thing to BAT your own home. I'm positive any building you make will be great...just like all of your other creations!  :thumbsup: One of the little details that I haven't seen in BAT yet are the metal roller shutters...I don't know the word in Spanish, but of course they are very common in new and old construction.

Looking good and very detailed.  It's hard to believe this is the first time you've created a building, but BATting your own home is a good choice.  I think every BATter creates a model of the place they live at some point.

Thanks to all for the feedback  :thumbsup:

FTA, indeed, prepos textures are very useful  :thumbsup:

SimFox, should I understand that you lived in Spain in some moment of your life ?¿. If so, where ?¿ And where are you going on holidays ?¿
About the way I build my models... this is something very personal....I like creating everything step by step  ;D
And the "thing inside" are prepo's textures, applied to planes, to simulate the furniture inside the rooms. You can find these textures attached to one post at his thread here.

josef, thanks for dropping a comment  :thumbsup:

threeswept, well, as hopefully you may notice, I do love detailing everything... which sometimes can be counter productive...  ::) ( in terms of time)

zero7, before this model, I modelled a Maritme Control Tower, which I hardly would call a proper building  $%Grinno$% , and also made a fake dam for my canals set. This is all my experience making buildings. However, this does not mean that I dont have some experience with the MAX, and I also have an incredible source of inspiration and tricks here at SC4D, so I can continously improve my skills  ;D

Again thanks to all for the feedback  :thumbsup:

It is a pitty that many of the details will be lost due to the final scale...  ::) ( 1x2 R$$), but I am really having a great time constructing this  ()stsfd()

Ah ... I'd forgotten about the control tower, which I shouldn't have as it's something I regularly use in my port areas.  I know all about your other creations, my plugins folder is full of them  :)

Hello again,

I had not so much time to work with the model, but some small progress is done  :)

I am still trying to figure out how to make all the textures work better... however, the main shape of the building is taking its form.

the sides of the buiding:



Some work in progress in the roof area....



On the left bottom you can see my son's bedroom window ( on the visinle part of the side of the building)



And still a last view of the situation so far....



Again thanks to all for the support with that building  :thumbsup:

Well new buildings are always welcome in the game, i must say this one looks really fantastic.
And with some imagination these appartments could also fit into middle european city as well.
And the details are really awesome, i follow this for sure.  :thumbsup:
