    I'm seriously considering a real life move to Barcelona in the next few years, plus it's a favourite haunt of mine :D

    Will keep my eye out for your update, your worlds always blow me away!

    Thanks! I'll consider it once it's time to populate. There is still a lot to be done :XD:

    As I promised here is the update! I've been working on Montjuïc area, I've started to create the industrial port and I've added a Distant Terrain:

    Montjuïc Castle

    Lluís Companys Olympic Stadium - a Microsoft Flight Simulator object that I have converted for TS3 thanks toTJ Streak's tutorial and Monsoon's help. It's a deco object. (I will also convert Camp Nou, Barça's Stadium, but this one will be functional)

    I have also converted Jaume I tower :)

    Here's a list of all FSX's objects: http://fsxsoc.dynamicfxgroup.com/
    There are hundreds! And some of them have a very good quality :)

    Hi! thankyou nilxis, I´ve been lurking in the page and there are plenty of interesting buildings, but I don´t think I should be able to do the convertions though I have read Tj´s tutorial several times, it sounds like "sanscrito" for me.

    May be it would have been great to have this
    madrid_edificioesp_858fae27-36b2-4c6d-aa6d-2643f0e34eb4.jpg"width=500"

    roof_up_original.jpg"width=350"

    instead of this.

    Or this one


    Madrid_Prado_f3719e62-6d98-411b-ac00-aaf9946ed75c.jpg"width=500"

    roof_up_original.jpg

    instead of this

    but counting the playability and the fun of the creation time I am rather satisfied with what I have done, though I should like to have had the models to look at before, it would have been easier than making them from real potos!

    The link is great to look through world architecture, thankyou very much

    I totally agree, I enjoy building and even though this models save a lot of time and look so good, I wouldn't like to have an entrie city made of objects only.

    So I convert the ones that are impossible to build or that I want to use as a deco or to fill the space :wink:

    Yay an update. Im really in love with all the pictures of this world and can't wait to play it eventually. Approximately how far through are you with this world now? I know they take a lot of time, but I am just curious.

    Sorry for the late answer Dijana, I don't know what happened but somehow I missed your comment. I think now I've done more than 50% of this world, maybe even 60-65% approximately. I hope to finish it within 3-4 months maximum, but now that Christmas holidays are about to start I will have a lot more time to work on it :thumbup: Thanks your your comment!

    Thanks Kurotard too!


    I hope to show you Sagrada Familia soon, maybe this weekend :mrgreen:

    Here's the new update! I've finished the Sagrada Familia and some other builds :D It took me some time but thanks to Luna's towers it has been possible to build and I think the result is very good :) Let's see the pictures:

    Screenshot-231.jpg
    First of all an aerial picture with the icons of the community lots.

    Screenshot-219.jpg
    Façade of Passion

    Screenshot-221.jpg
    Façade of Birth

    Screenshot-220.jpg
    Façade of Glory, under construction. (actually this is the true entrance to the temple, since the other ones are not accessible because of the towers that block the entrance)

    Screenshot-222.jpg

    Screenshot-223.jpg
    Inside

    Screenshot-224.jpg
    There's an elevator that ascends to this platform between two towers where sims can enjoy the views :) (the elevator is inside the tower, but it works anyway)

    Screenshot-226.jpg

    Screenshot-227.jpg

    Screenshot-228.jpg
    Finally, some buildings in Eixample.


    I hope you like it :D
