Now that is a great idea.

Just four new pics today, but all of them are from the top of Fordham Spire. Lot's of work or River North and Central Station today, plus I think this is the first time I've shown a developed Block 37, though I don't think you can really tell from this angle.

At this point, I'm done with every major tower in Chicago. Everything from this point forward will be 500ft or down, barring a major new development or reduxes of existing models. So if you can't tell I changed anything in Central Station, I did. It's just a matter of diminishing returns from now on.

I'm also running out of ideas for new renders. Any angle you want to see? Speak (well...type) your mind.

STR, do you have a way to supress all buildings except those that are proposed or U/C?

spyguy · #**185** Posted **Mar 3, 2006, 2:45 AM**

Have you done the Streeter, the River North Center (3 towers), or Cityfront Plaza (3 towers)? Also those two Madison West 645 towers?

JACKinBeantown · #**186** Posted **Mar 3, 2006, 4:30 AM**

STR, are you making the buildings colors to match the actual buildings' colors?

Wild Onion Mike · #**187** Posted **Mar 3, 2006, 6:19 AM**

Not certain if I see 600 N LSD, or 41 East 8th Ave.

Major kudos again for all the hours of work. I'm not sure why, but I too am having trouble running the avi fly-by.

Youre not the only one. It got to the point where I just gave up and used my imagination. lol

Crazy Ivan · #**189** Posted **Mar 3, 2006, 12:56 PM**

Running the fly-by - I wasn't able to run it with Windows Media player or Winamp, but it did run with QuickTime. Save it to your hard drive, right click on it, and "open with" QuickTime.

^Thanks Crazy Ivan, I just did that and it finally worked!

dvidler · #**191** Posted **Mar 3, 2006, 6:35 PM**

If you could add Sky55 in the SouthLoop that would be great.

Dont know if this would be too difficult but could you do Millennium Park? The new Piano Hall at the Art Institute?

Or if you really wanted to get crazy you could do the area around Lincoln Park.

Not really.

I try. Some are matched from photos, others I just eye it or pick from a predefined pallette.

I don't think I've done 600 North, but 41 8th is above. I don't recall which one, but I remember doing it. Also, to get the .avi to work in WMP, you need the proper codecs. Check out http://www.xpcodecpack.com/

Six new pics today. A shiny new nickel to the first person who figures out the biggest change in the model (and it's a huge one, with even bigger reprecusions).

STR · #**194** Posted **Mar 4, 2006, 5:19 AM**

Seems like competition. http://chicago.visualizedconcepts.com/

Patrick · #**195** Posted **Mar 4, 2006, 6:10 AM**

Yeah, but yours will end up better

STR · #**196** Posted **Mar 4, 2006, 6:12 AM**

True. I have made it my mission to pwn them. Which lead me to my huge mod earlier today. Anyone want to venture a guess?

...shiny new nickel...

Wild Onion Mike · #**197** Posted **Mar 4, 2006, 6:15 AM**

STR, your are way better and vastly more updated than what I saw at other end of the link.

Swede · #**198** Posted **Mar 4, 2006, 1:35 PM**

Hold on, is that 3D sidewalks I see?

Crazy Ivan · #**199** Posted **Mar 4, 2006, 5:15 PM**

The Shiny Nickel Mod: its a new beta version of an animated urban street fighting game for XBOX based on the 2010 STR 3D model. SOAR vs. the Forum.

We have a winner. Yes, the ground is now 3D, where as before it was just a flat plane with layers put on top. This means, eventually, the river will be 20 feet below street level, and multi-level roads and plazas are now possible.
