Weird request but can you release a version without 2 Washington? I like to make cities based on early-mid 20th century architecture (I have also done screenshots if you are interested in seeing them http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=802480543 ) and that is why I wanted to download this wonderful building at first but that black behemoth doesn't really fit.

Right thanks, I got it fixed, I've got to work on downtown, I kind of didn't know what I was doing when I was making downtown, I made Battery Pl to short and for some reason made State St. turn into Church St and not Broadway

@Wr Télévision - Wo!!! thats awseome, I love your cities, you should pop that link over in the Group!!

@Knightguard1 - Firstly. remove 55 Water street, its an amazing building, but it has 25,000 tris!
Most of our buildings never get above 4 or 5,000. Tris (Triangles) and quads are what make up each part of a mesh to cover the model.
The computer has a real issue trying to render those on the screen. So if you have a large city, every building has a couple of thousand tris each!
So we attempt to keep the ti count very low. So I would keep a save with all your building in, and dont over right it and have a new save taking out as many large buildings as you can.
Just say keep Manhatten, as that all I model for, and remove New Jersey and the other burroughs.
Use the Bulldozer mod and remove EVERY tree you can in those areas as well. Each tree has a few hundred tris each!
Buy MORE Ram!! and at least a quad procseesor and minimum 950 Graphics card!
Use as few mods as you can, and cull as many building that you dont need, good luck!
My next building is just a baby!

@Mechanized_Timber - yep! thats the one between Whitehall and 1 Broadway eh? Only issue is the proximaty to the actual underpass entrance, But I'll figure out something!
Mechanized_Timber 25 Dec, 2016 @ 8:53am 
@cleavus is the Brooklyn-Battery Tunnel (or Hugh carey whoever tunnel) ventilation building on your list?

@Jensoo - thanks bud! appreciate that.Yes we are lucky how customisable this game is!
AMazing what you find in NY, and Ive learned a heck of a lot from this all. All the best, and Merry Christmas!
Jensoo 25 Dec, 2016 @ 5:10am 
I see, and I can imagine what struggle creating these buildings must be. Nevertheless I am already looking forward to a separate 1 Broadway. Maybe you might think about splitting up one or two of these groups later on. :)

Ingame I usually use Road Anarchy to place buildings with overlapping footprints.

However, I appreciate your assets very much! They make this already great game even more awesome! Already looking forward to my next NY project.

Fun fact: On my last trip to NY I went to the restroom in the Subway restaurant in 5 Broadway. The cabin was nearly as large as my living room. :D

@NoirMoutton - thanks matey!
Cleavus  [author] 25 Dec, 2016 @ 3:40am 
Your welcome! And thanks for the feedback!
Only when there are other buildings close by that is crossing into another buildings lot.
New York Buildings are so close together of course.

And with this one, because of how 2 Washington sits on the same Rectangular space, it had to be on the same lot, or uploading just Whitehall would have meant Washington could never have been created and be placed in the right place. Sounds weird, I know, its just also a style.
Going forward, I wont be doing it unless absolutley nessesary.

Prime example is the next one, where 1 Broadway, 5 Broadway, 11 Greenwich, and 25 Broadway, are all 'Stuck' together, which is a nightmare, as seperate ingame buildings you cant bring them together that close. BUT, I will be doing 1 Broadway on its own, and I'll think of a way around it!
Jensoo 25 Dec, 2016 @ 3:12am 
Thanks for the invitation! :) I have one question by the way: Why do you always cluster two or more buildings into a single asset? This limits flexibility a lot for using them in a different context. Will the following buildings also come in groups?

I waited for ages for somebody to upload 17 State Street for example. I just love that building. I was so happy when you added it to the workshop in such a good quality. Unfortunately I couldn't use it in my current city because it came grouped with the neighbouring office buildings.
NoirMoutton 25 Dec, 2016 @ 3:01am 
Another great job- all very much appreciated!
Cleavus  [author] 25 Dec, 2016 @ 2:58am 
@aw thanks Jensoo! Just here bud, I do write in our NYC Building Group which I think you may enjoy! I'll send you an invite! I plan to fill in as much of Manhattan as I can. Im doing 1 Broadway next
cheers bud
Jensoo 25 Dec, 2016 @ 12:55am 
Do you have a blog or city journal somewhere? I love your work! :)

I already tried building New York about a year ago but so many iconic on the southern tip of Manhattan didn't exist as assets yet. My next project will definitely be NY again. Keep up the awesome work! :)
