    Default CarTown

    hello guys, I started this map a few days ago. it should go up against MitCity

    I do need some one that can help me building some buildings

    EDIT: It does has some bugs, like the wheels from a car will stick to the bottom of the bus shelter, and the sidewalk: when you walk over it you will suddenly be a few meters further or back

    I see you're basically copying MitCity? Well, your choice but I can't really appreciate it :/

    Hmmm... I wouldn't agree with you. I can tell the overal look reminds me almost perfectly of MitCity. When I looked at your pic you posted on the Development Screens thread, I thought you stole stuff from MitCity. I needed to check it out more thoroughly to notice you didn't have anything stolen. If I were you, I would still make a city map, but I would first make sure it doesn't have the same style that an other WIP or Released map does, let alone a map which thread is very active and almost each time you look at the forums you find it bolded on the first position on the list :/ I suggest you change the road style and additionally try making some different style buildings (not deleting the ones you have here, just make new ones additionally). That will change the map "feel" to some other kind of City and it won't conflict with MitCity. Also, adding some countryside stuff too would make it even different than MitCity. Don't take this as a bad criticism on your map, you have made very nicely modelled stuff

    When you look closely, this map actually doesn't look anything like MitCity. The buildings and layout are a lot different.

    MitCity is based on Europe style, mine American style

    I didn't say I don't like it. I told you that you have made very nice stuff, not joking at all. To be honest, I would really like to play this map, even if it looks like MitCity. I just told you all of that, because in my opinion, it will be better not only for many of us, but also for you to have a different style in your map and make it be more exceptional. Anyway, sorry for upseting you, do as you wish. And as I said above, I really like your map and I will play on it even like this, seriously. So don't give up.

    If you are right about the style, it seems both European and American have very similar style and I hadn't noticed that. In this case, I regret what I said.

    Thank you all guys, and I made a car dealer: CB Cars N' Trucks, can someone make it work like a real car spawner? You need to walk into the office in the garage and the car spawns where the G2 is
