Staunton - A Google SketchUp City

[Patrick]

Woo!

I'm having alot of fun with Jefferson, in a nutshell, Jefferson will look different compared to original Jefferson, many more skyscrapers, Jefferson will be a much more prominent Financial District, instead of a rundown area with a few skyscrapers here and there.

[Mocholate]

The new McFarland Center is awesome ! Didn't load first time.

Will you be able to get all this into one skyline shot eventually?

So in other words, you're changing the basis of Jefferson from Newark to Brooklyn?

A company should market it, a game that doesnt release the anycode but just lets you import a SU city, and gives you a plugin to design race tracks within your avenues and highways.

haha I was gonna say the same thing.

Brooklyn's a better basis anyway. Newark sucks at life, period. When I rule the world, Newark's gettin' nuked.

I think Im gonna try a driving simulator now,after hearing all this. Ill make a vid and upload it.

Het Pat,How come you dont use your textures from your 3d warehouse buildings? or do you?

Ten days without update?What's happening to the world?

[Patrick]

Yeah I havent worked on Staunton in a long time, hah wierd huh? Sophmore year is so neat and I'm always busy or out that theres simply no time for Staunton lately! Staunton isnt dead or anything, maybe just on an extended vacation.

[Patrick]

While i've started on Jefferson a while back, lately i've been adjusting Downtown Staunton. I'm sure i'll be back to updateing frequently in a month or so. Sophmore year is so much more than Freshmen in all catigories, i'm so busy now, dedicating much more time to my school work and friends. Overall its been great, but busy, so not much time for Staunton.

I know we've all seen this angle before, but its one of my favorites, and shows some of the new highrises I added in. I'm working on Callahan Village, improving it with a few more highrises instead of a dead drop of skyscrapers from Downtown to Callahan Village.

[Austin55]

Ahh, verysweet you can never go wrong with Staunton, can't wait for Jefferson.

[Wrightguy0]

Could it be? An update? It's awesome

[Patrick]

Can this be? Another update!

I know you guys are getting tired of seeing the same skies over Staunton, I promise i'll find some new skies soon enough. I know you guys also wanted some urban shots instead of skylines, so here are some!

A few blocks north of Callahan Square, the Staunton Futures Exchange is right down there where 7th Street makes a left, next to it is the glass annex where the trading floor is, behind is the art-deco icon that is the Stock Exchange Tower (not the actual exchange) To the right of all this are some new B-class office buildings.



Wouldnt this be a nice view! From a loft somewhere in the Village, looking at the ever so prominent Kent Enterprise Tower. At night the Kent Tower is heavily floodlit like the GE Building in NYC.



Looking down 7th from the Boxy section of Downtown, we see a portion of the Staunton Futures Exchange, the colossal Lloyd Tower, and City Hall.

[verticalextropy]

proceed to the riverfront right to pier 13. release land reclamation rights!!!

[Patrick]

This fourm really is dead!

Jefferson looking all dramatic, don't worry there will be more skyscrapers in the future, these are only the first 2-3 bocks inland.



A year or so ago.

[Austin55]

ooooh a few textures things you néed to wôrk ön-especìlÿ thæt tąll àrt dèćo oné.

[Patrick]

Yeah the Art Deco tower, or the Richmond Tower (any other name suggestions?) is a tough one, I havent touched it at all yet, it might get new textures, or i'll fix the current ones, but thats for another day! Other than that I dont see any other buildings that need texture work!
