Wow, cool improvement again.

Critic: The benches are minimally oversized, Some "live" would be nice too.

Thanks, I will scale those down a bit, and add a new texture.

On the topic of roof textures....I decided to look into that in some free time today, here's the result...

I was bearing in mind that it will appear lighter in game, and against the light platform, which will also contrast to that.

Moving on to the platform texture...

An update on the platform....it's now handicap accessible....

I will do nightlights, and then hopefully be close to finishing up here....

That's nice to hear... But one question, is it possible to make a version for heavy Rail that uses a cross-free acess to the plattform? (Via escelator and over/underpasses.)

Oh, certainly. With a little extra work, that wouldn't be too hard at all to add an escalator or two.

Once I am finished with this, all I do is bring up the platform with the ramps, and add an escalator.

The only issue with that is...would you want to "see" the sims coming out on the other side? If so, an overpass would be the best way to go, as there is really no more room for an escalator on the lot.

I think you should add the little orange lights that the Washington Metro uses, instead of the yellow black lines. Unless that station has the lines instead

I don't know how you batters ever get that much detail into your work.

NOTE: For about a week or so, I had the forums set up where images automatically resized to 800x600, but that caused the page to take A LONG time to load and it was quite awkward. The images are no longer set to automatically resize. If anyone has posted any images that are over the size limit during this time, please don't feel pressured to change them (although you can if you would like), however, please keep in mind that the auto-resizing is no longer occurring, so please make sure that you post images that are the right size.

I'm giving a free ride on images posted during the time that the auto-resizing was turned on because many of you knew about the change, not knowing that I would change it back. That's why I am not requiring oversized pictures posted during that time to be fixed. (After all, there can't be too many of them, right? )

Sorry about this inconvenience. I should have fixed it sooner.

I'm gonna post this exclusively on Sim Mania first.

DC, these are great train platforms, i wish i had your modeling skills. good progress.

YAY! Cool!

Looking great DC. Very impressive

Thanks guys!

More, anyone? (Escalators courtesy of Scipio) I'll be making my own props too.... should have them posted in the near future.

Wow looks awesome

Thanks Micky!

Greenbelt Metrorail has been released on the STEX!!

Come 'n' get it!!

Great release DC/Edge! I love it, very useful indeed.

I love the new station DC, it looks great in my cities

Thanks so much guys!!

I am working on a heavy rail version of Greenbelt, but in the meantime....

Here is a bus reskin I made from one of Gwail's buses. They are based off the buses that run in my hometown.

Okay, so if any of you don't know.... I did release the Asheville "ART" GLR Tram last week on the STEX as the first release for the Simmania BAT Team.

As you can see in the posts above, I was trying to reskin an Asheville bus.. and that is now on hold, as I never got permission to release that, and probably never will.

I am not really sure which personal project I am going to pursue next for the SBT, whether it is BATting related, or automata related, but I really hope that an update will come in the near future.

If you're reading this, thanks for following my thread!!

Great work, I'm looking forward to more releases

My apologies Neal !
I never really knew this thread existed.
Did someone move this thread here over to
the SBT section ?

If so, I think this was a good idea !

As far as what projects you should pursue next ?
I think what YOU want to do the most !
Everything , you have released so far has only
been of the highest quality Neal. And as our good
friend Z would tell us work on what you know you
want to work on the most.

The SBT project as you know looks like its going to
be the super transit hub. So that will be our group
project for some time to come.

Hope I was of a little bit of help here anyways.

Just release the bus DC, give gwail credit for his model, and you are considered to be covered as far as plagarism goes. Thats a great texture! Those types of credits are considered to be acceptable...like a reference in english class. Most of the custom content you might modify or use, those people arent around anymore. So, not claiming as your own is good enough. You can even renumber the bus so that his isnt a dependency. That is considered to be on the up and up in the community. Nice work in this thread!
