Thanks for updating to work with the new Stonecutter bridge file - looks great !
BeachFlyer
Looking great. Any chance you could model the Kerry Hotel, and the surrounding area. It's quite an iconic landmark on Kowloon’s waterfront! The Peak Tower would also be nice, with it's recognisable shape.
FreakyD 9 day(s) ago
No, I cannot model the Kerry Hotel. There is not enough visual definition on google earth, it's just a hole in the ground. I use google earth, google satellite imagary and google street view to create a visual picture of the size/shape/unique architectural features. Without this, I would be stabbing in the dark on the details.

Hong Kong is looking really great now thanks.

Hi FreakyD. I'm thinking of downloading. Presumably I would not use thiswith Samscene's HK scenery. Please can you confirm? Ta
Looks nice from your pics and update logs btw.
FreakyD 2 month(s) ago
Probably not compatible since both add similar assets to the scenery. But, I'm not sure since I don't have the SamScene add-on. I'd say if you have the SamScene scenery, download mine and install it and see what happens. If they conflict, delete mine. It won't harm your sim at all.
cianpars 2 month(s) ago
Thanks. I will give it a go then. Maybe I will try running with samscene, your version and both together then.
FreakyD 2 month(s) ago
OK, let me know what happens and I can add those details to the package description.
cianpars 2 month(s) ago
Well, I've run with yours, with Samscene's and with both together. I like both versions for different reasons, but everything looks a bit cluttered together. There are a lot of buildings in each version and in the default as well and I had some difficulty working out which buildings belonged to the default, to yours and to Samescene's when running them together. I would personally run either one or the other, but not both together, though that is not to say that others may disagree.

It would be a good idea to include a date or version number in the zip file. This might help users (like me) to manage the downloads files for this and other mods.

Great work! Nice balance between quality and size. Performance is also very good

Thanks. Stat tuned. I'm currently working on models for buildings on the Kowloon side now. Just finished The Peninsula Hotel, Harbour Centre Towers and started on the HK Cultural Center.

Awesome work as always from this modder, featured it in a video yesterday and not a bad word said anywhere. I look forward to seeing where this goes in the future.

I also featured the port mod by superspud as together they worked so nicely together. I may have misidentified a cpl of the buildings but hope I did it justice in 1400p https://youtu.be/XNMB8WwVGck

Nice additions to the default HK scenery. Thanks for doing this pack. Works fine for me on SU5.

Does the FPS drops?
FreakyD 2 year(s) ago
Not on my system. Download and see if it effects you. If so, delete it. Won't hurt my feelings.
