Convert your files from BMP to JPG; simplest way, open with Paint, select "Save as..." and choose JPG, then post like you did for your first try, the picture should show up.

 

CA_Stary, that's impressive... I just love it :biggrin: however, in case of war, wouldn't there be some kind of curfew ?

Let's see, you're playing with the building's texture alpha channel, which is the way you get the illumination effect (and the fact you see the light of buildings in the background through those in the foreground is my clue)... now... how do you get the actual lighting... a light source below the horizon and a "feature" of the z-buffer ?

 

Close, or completely out ?

It's for Gepard's Formosa/Taiwan, .tod files from this version can't be used in other terrains (like Europe) because of the way it works -to have windows lit, I had to place two buildings one exactly on top of another (which is helluva of .tod ini editing), the first being windows only (you're correct about using alpha cannel), the second structure itself. Then some simple terrain data.ini edits, to make the solid objects "lighted".

 

Surely there could be some kind of curfew, but I wanted more life to the cities at nite :smile:

Where'd you get the awesome sky scrapers??

And how did you get the buildings in the city to have lights in them?!?!?!?

This is a beautiful shot!!!
