I agree, the smaller font is better. That way it would become much more versatile.

Replies:

@ Skimbo: Thanks, I am going to go with the smaller one....and I am definitely putting props too, thanks for your ideas!

@ K50 Dude: Thanks K50, and the station is actually 8 tiles.

@ Simarillion: Thanks!

I made the wing texture a bit darker, making me done with the basic structure.

Great structure, the new texture on the roof looks great! The station is EIGHT tiles? Oh my god, I will be using this one a lot then! I need some big stations like that

I'll be using this too!

Ok I didn't see the exact station your designing but looking at some others, I think that you should add the sign, and you do have a great realistic design.

Eight tiles, perfect, finally something more realistic for the ground level

Thanks for the comments guys! Here's a little something for you.....

First, I thought I would give you an update on my projects:
(The station name will link you to picture, and the type beside it is the status and planned release date.

Greenbelt Metrorail Station: Re-working LODs--- Release planned for late September.
Dupont Circle Metrorail Station: General modeling--- Released date no earlier than mid-October.
Regular Rail Freight Station: MODding--- Release date in mid-September.
STR Freight Station: MODding--- Release date in mid-September.
GLR to Bus Transfer Station: MODding--- Release date in about a week.


I know I kinda rambling a bit...but I have yet another lot.

It's a freight yard and when it is fully modded it will function as a freight station.


My freight station has been released on the STEX

amazing station dc this is a great looking freight yard keep up the great work

Thanks guys, I need BAT pic for all, with new night lights, and a more curved platform.

That new platform looks really nice, more realistic! Nice job!

EDIT: Have you seen these: http://www.simtropolis.com/stex/details.cfm?id=12324 I think they could add some to your platform, along with your own

Hm, I think the plattform should be a bit darker, that's too bright.

Yes, I have, that's where I got the idea to use them! Unfortunately, there are no Greenbelt signs in there....so..they wouldn't match the station.

Oh, I see....

Haha, yeah, it's very complicated.

But, the Simtropolis Transit BAT Team has released it's first lot. You can get it here.

Congratulations on your first lot! It's a very nice piece of architecture, if you ask me! Great job!

Thank you....I have also made 2 other lots...it was the first for our team, though.

I think it is possible, nice idea. I'll see what I can do.

great

After a looone break from BAT, I finally returned and figured out the LOD issue!

Here is the large high-definition image!

But.....we still have this issue....when I go to LE to put pros, they appear to be "hidden below" the surface.


So, currently, I am working on that issue....


Since the LOD was being such a pain, I took a break for a while, and started BATting a subway station I had seen while I was in Boston.

Here's my RL pic...


And my version so far...


For now, I am switching back to Greenbelt, and will keep you updated on that!


DC

you're doing nice work here

Great work!

That's going to be a nice entrance.

Thank you one and all!!

But now....

Time for an update on Greenbelt!

What I've done:

- I have fixed the issue that was not allowing me to add props in LE by making the platform a prop, as well.

- I have started experimenting with benches.

What I plan to do:

- Get nightlights up and running!

- Add some more essential props (ticket kiosk, trashcans...)
