My job is almost exclusively the creation of addons for the VIP team, but sometimes I want to get some fresh air.

This topic is dedicated to my BATs not that last for many months, as can some projects of the team.






I will first start with a building still in the process of structural work.

I think it's the concrete structure of a building that is now waiting for interior and a (glass?) facade. It will contain offices. Isn't it?
Looks very promising.

Looks great, I think i've already seen a building like that in Paris..

Oh, btw, le titre de ton thread n'est pas correct :P " WHere Orange Nest " se traduit littéralement par "Ou le nid orange" je pense que tu voulais dire " le nid d'orange" ce qui dans ce cas devrait être "Orange's nest"

Edit : tu as raison, je voulais dire "Où Orange fait son nid" mais google n'est plus mon ami  :D (Orange)

Well, after adjusting the bump, here I am again with a green roof for better appearance.
This texture was completely made ​​in photoshop with 4 textures cgtexture, a gravel and 3 mosses and herbs.

At the same time here is a first test for windows, it is close enough to the look you want: blue glass with an important reflection.

The blue double effect, is that the windows of the building are composed of two panes separated by several feet.


(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fnsm06.casimages.com%2Fimg%2F2011%2F11%2F04%2F111104125945846489002345.jpg&hash=025d82a5f30d94f0941d38e45207090a147df4c9)




Yes, a big step forward was made in the construction of the building ... but I saw that the interest was less, so I abbreviate your suffering.  :P

This building is beautiful, but a greener roof and some solar panels could make it even more awesome. Something like this...

Post by: Orange_o_ on November 04, 2011, 05:30:18 AM
Oh! what a surprise! I was rather pleased with my roof ...

I probably misspoke. First ignore the white facade, it is not textured.

When you create a green roof, you have several solutions, how intensive, semi-extensive and finally extensive.

Intensive green roofs are made ​​of a substrate that can go up 1 or 2m. They are suitable for planting trees and shrubs.

The roofs are made of semi extensive support of 15cm, and equipped with an automatic watering system, allowing the planting of grass, ivy, iris, small shrubs ...

The extensive roof, consists of porous materials on 10/15cm, but is not equipped with sprinkler system. plants are plants resistant to drought, type sedum. Periods of drought, often results in the death of some plants, but are quickly covered by other plants.

That is, you'll understand this latter solution was chosen on this building.


It allows a good retention of rainwater, reducing total maintenance.

Here is the preview of this type of roof:

When I lived in Hamburg, I passed several times near this building and thought: "this would be a nice BAt" Now You're doing it!  &hlp
I think, the roof planting should be done like the one in the first pic of Your RL examples. The original isn't fitting to the rest of the building. In RL, nobody minds, because nobody has a look at it, but in SC4, the roof is seen the whole time. So this wonderful BAT merits a more beautiful roof vegetation tha the real one.

Knapp, my roof is not better than the original?

It is a pleasure Terring

Here are a few minor changes including the front and I applied a light texture to dirty the windows and at the foot of the building, adding also a aluminum angle on the top of the walls. This is to ensure a good seal.


(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fnsm06.casimages.com%2Fimg%2F2011%2F11%2F05%2F111105021059846489006204.jpg&hash=aee93b637ca8c908dd34dd1bfa6e92ca7dbd5697)

The black frame, can break the contrast between the white facade and green roof.

I think the roof is a very convincing sedum roof. The aluminium strip is indeed important to keep the rainwater out of the interior. So I'd leave it there, altough it may be a bit less contrast. But is the facade not too white?

That said , I can see a lot of progresses since your last trees so ,  If you need suggestions , I'm still waiting for (HD) Platanus , Fagus & and most of all  Fraximus which are , with pines , almost the only trees to grow on high and harsh plateau(s)(?) like Aubrac ....  ;D

After a hyperactive Fall 2011, the year 2012 began quietly for the VIP team.

We learned that Badsim would pause for reasons "real estate", and it is with sadness that Girafe has decided to focus on his real life.

This falls ill, because I too had projects other than SC4. I am doing such a website for the company.
I will therefore accelerate the completion of the Agripack, I'm sorry for your recent query.

The Aesculus and Fagus trees are absolutely beautiful but I'm having a bit of trouble with them showing up in the lots I added them to.
I was going to use the PM to make props but the PM doesn't see the models.
Any ideas what I am doing wrong ?
I'd really like to add these to some of my lots.
Title: Re: VIP - Orange's Nest
Post by: Orange_o_ on January 12, 2012, 11:34:15 AM

Title: Re: VIP - Orange's Nest
Post by: JayStimson on January 13, 2012, 09:13:54 AM
Yes. I know dat.
I thought that's what I stated.
What I want to know is why, when I add the "flora" to my lots in the LE, they don't show up in the game ?
Title: Re: VIP - Orange's Nest
Post by: noahclem on January 16, 2012, 09:23:50 AM
I could really use help with this one as well!  &hlp  I started a project to relot many of my favorite non-growable lots to feature beautiful, seasonal VIP flora--but the flora only shows up in game ~5% of the time! Any advice?
Title: Re: VIP - Orange's Nest
Post by: Kergelen on January 16, 2012, 02:12:25 PM
Are you using seasonal flora?
If I'm not wrong and if this is the case, is not recommended to use seasonal flora in growable lots. And if the lots are ploppable, must be plop on 1rt of September, like the seasonal flora. You can read a large explanation here http://sc4devotion.com/forums/index.php?topic=12571.0 (http://sc4devotion.com/forums/index.php?topic=12571.0). Read Lowkee explanation to my post :)
Hope this help! :thumbsup:
Title: Re: VIP - Orange's Nest
Post by: noahclem on January 16, 2012, 02:52:17 PM
Thanks for your help Kergelen!

I am trying to use the seasonal flora, but only on lots that are not growable. Reading through your link did give me a lot better knowledge on the details of the seasonal flora works, including the exact acceptable days. I'll check if I've been placing the lots too late in September, but I have a feeling that something else is causing my problems.
Title: Re: VIP - Orange's Nest
Post by: Lowkee33 on January 16, 2012, 03:46:20 PM
I've had trouble with flora in LE in general, even when they aren't seasonal.  They don't seem to like being close to each other, though I'm not sure if it is an Occupant Size issue or perhaps something in the Flora Parameters.  Making the flora into timed props would be a better alternative, I would say.

I'm just wondering, have you ever thought of putting some of your trees into a god mode controller? Since your trees are so high quality, and some of yuor trees are common across several regions in the world (eg: Your Fugas Tree that you made). With both a seasonal and evergreen option of course :P.

Tsuga canadensis

Well, my problem is: how long can the dependencies list be until everybody decides not to download the set? I got already about 25 dependencies for the set. So I could say: what the heck, I add one other. Or I could say: now it's enough I need to stop somewhere. That's my problem. You see?
The same goes for the Wheat by Gurafe (?). It's beautiful, But I got already some other wheat...

Frank, I must confess I have not followed the development of your Lots, but I understand your problem better.
However, without assuming the success of Agripack, this should be a dependency "common".

Here is a first report, to test volumes. The textures are provisional and modeling is not complete.


The texture of the building should be brighter.

The roof is vegetated and there are two statues bizarre : homunculus  ...

Hi,

A link is on the bottom of all my posts: take a look at the "coop with Nexis" link. That is the one that shows the latest developments, although they are quite old at the time. I am waiting for Nexis to finish his props sets (also in this thread) until I can finish my lots. But you will get an idea of where I stand.

Your building is getting great!  &apls
