Sorry Derek - I merged all the Somy-related threads into one "fan club" and I couldn't figure out how to get my post to come first, so I've hijacked your first post here... --snorrelli
For sure, some of the most eye-popping creations ever to make their way into our cities have come from Somy (http://members3.jcom.home.ne.jp/somy000/index.htm). Few other BAT-ers have so consistently amazed us with the size, imagination and detail of their work. Here are a few examples:

That looks incredible. His stuff is totally outstanding. Although I'm not so sure about the grass .
Wow. Love SOMYs works and this one no exception.
The grass should be downscaled.
^^Yes my thoughts exactly.^^
:thumbsup:
wow! that is so detailed. simply amazing work.
???
&apls &apls
Derek, thanks so much.....I love his work....simply fantastic...... &apls
I think you need to thanks MAS san too.
Nonononono NOOO I hope somy doesnt see the horrible comments you made about the grass!
The grass adds the entire atmosphere to this BAT!!! If you have played Resident Evil4, you know what kindof atmosphere im talking about. Kindof a lonely, barren, forgotten yet megalithic and haunting castle, which is creepy EVEN DURING THE DAY
i agree with arch, i'd like to see some in-game shots of the grass first, to determine if it really needs to be changed.
On another note, you can see outlines of ruined buildings on the left of the BAT, so this castle is probably forgotten, hence the overgrown grass
grass---shmass....all I know is I want that building.......
Sigh :satisfied:
&apls &apls &apls A Masterpiece :thumbsup:
I think over all it's an incredible Bat, as for the grass it's just my opinion and I didn't realize or even think for that matter that it was suppose to be over grown grass. With that in mind now, it does make more sense. &apls
I couldn't give a darn about the grasstexture, it just looks ............fantastic with it!
This is one BAT that will be hard to make better.
:o
I've got to admit that I am really stoked about this bat.....am in the process of terraforming a new region and by coincidence(?) found the perfect spot for this.....
Can't wait.
The castle has been released.
anyone have an idea about this problem??? i've downloaded this SOMY Industrial Port Set and when in the game, couple parts of this lot dont appear...... am i missing a dependency??? because when i was going to download this set there was no dependency given by SOMY???

Hello!
Is there a possibility to make these residential6x6 growable lots into ploppable ones.to make these residentiel to be landmarks.
Because I am working for a part of a city which could be diagonal and I search for diagonal buildings to put them along diagonal roads and for that I need to transform this lot.I know this is just for estetism because at the beginning it's residential.
It's just for personal use.I recognize and admirate the work of SOMY like everyone here.
Thank you very much
The buildings are props so you could just use lot editor to make ploppables for yourself.

Hi all :)
About SOMY san.
Yes, I think that what Gaston san said is correct. ;)
He doesn't belong to any team as long as I know.
before, He is a person that has lot of mystery for us Japanese too. :P
SOMYさんの件ですが、、、、
私が知る限り、Gastonさんの言う通り、どのチームにも属していないと思いますよ。 ;)

Try to install his industrial port set 5 (http://members3.jcom.home.ne.jp/somy000/simbat/somy_industrial_port_set05.zip). I'm not sure which file it is, but that brown box appears when the port set 5 was removed. I'll look into files.
EDIT: Found. Resource Key Type 1 in Buildings exemplar is referring to
somy-Ship05oil-dummy-0x5ad0e817_0x91bc972f_0x30000.SC4Model.
Maybe he did not replace a main building used in lot by mistake.
Thanks for the quick reply ebina, that was indeed the model file that cleared away the brown box. :thumbsup:
There is a file in the 06 pack that is named quite the same (somy-Ship06-dummy-0x5ad0e817_0x91bd7079_0x30000.sc4model). Maybe it was supposed to refer to that?
Anyway it works now so I'll leave this to the people who undersand this better that I do.

You can get a zip "Shouwa Local Streets Set" in bottom of a page.
hope this helps :)
I'm poking this thread because it is the SOMY fan club thread. I can start a new topic if that's best. I just want to know if SOMY made it through the earthquake. I don't see anything one way or another about him. His SC4 work has always stuck out in my mind as OMG Where's the Fries? (next time we'll wash your mouth out with soap) incredible, and the world would be a much poorer place for him not being in it. Not to discount the many others who have died, but this would be someone I know... if not 'personal', and I don't really know him... well, I hope you understand what I mean. %confuso
He updated earlier this month, and seems to be working on the now infamous Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant.
First new thing he's worked on in a while. Lol I have his little blog thing bookmarked and still check it out of hopes he'll make be making something new. And finally, something new appeared! Yay.
