CAL's BAT Cave

[zero7]

Mas san, I'm not 100% sure what you're asking, as the LOD is a simple box that extends below the ground plane.

I think that is what he was asking.  Is the LOD a simple box?  What's being suggested is that the LOD is made more complex to follow the shape of the aqueduct more closely.  This would allow it work better when used at less than full height as the simple box models in MAS71's image show.

Thanks for the help there Richard, I was having a particularly bad blonde day  .  I've fixed the LODs to be tight to the arches and updated the file on LEX.  Here's the result:



I can't do anything about the game shadow as it's only creating a 2x2 shadow (LOT size).

Thanks Jac

Wow, this is a super looking bridge (aqueduct).  Will you consider doing a rail and street/road version?

awesome work lee

* cough cough....dusty in here.

I've not posted any work recently, probably because I've been doing actual work    This is my current project, nearing completion.  It's a modern secondary school, typical of newbuild schools here in the UK. This is for a client to showcase their commercial air handling products and each building has a specific installation based on the needs of the building's purpose (large scale air handling for the sports hall, heat recovery for classrooms etc).  It's almost complete barring more work to be done on the environment such as texturing and more flora.  It's slated to become a BAT in the near future although I have no timeframe for conversion, owing to 2 more large scale projects just around the corner.

Anyway, enough of my ramblings, on with the pretty pictures...

Oh wow! That looks fantastic! I wish my school was like that 
Would it be called an academy?

[Schulmanator]

Very nice! This will be a prize to place in any SimCity.

[Gaston]

Wow this looks incredible.   It really looks like the progressive elementry / middle school I went to for a short time in upper New York State.   Very kool.   I think anyone would be very proud to put this in thier cities.

As you can see children, this man is a god!

I've think you've done enough work to last a year Lee! Impressive as always and I can't see anything wrong... Well to my untrained eye...
