== Reasons why I moved the links here ==
== The future of this IP ==
It is not fully related to some users' comments this time, but it is directly related to the simulator's recent changes. Initially, the filler walls in external mesh weren't cut properly. Luckily that this issue was quickly fixed after I pinpointed the buildings with such issues. In addition, while testing [[August 16 2025 build|this build]], I found out that the landscape was not cut the intended way in [[DRH]]. With all of these, I cannot keep the links at the main meeting point where people just download the [[buildings]], face several errors, and post about them almost every day. These issues may also occur differently in [[Buildings/Creators A-D#Beno's Buildings|Beno's buildings]] and places created with [[BBC]], as those places have non-traditional interfloors, thus rendering the cut function work differently.
I deeply apologize to announce that it will be a very long time before the next release of this IP comes. There are some reasons behind this.
# Whenever I browse to the forum thread (including the former and current ones), I would see "error reports" (whether about missing [[Data#Textures|textures]] or large [[buildings]] stalling/crashing on lower-end computers) and "requests to add or change [[data|files]] (such as in GitHub)" more than "compliments about [[Mn10 IP|my buildings]]."
#* It's fine if users who like my [[buildings]] prefer enjoying them silently, but seeing error or requests almost every day making me feel ''really'' like a bot or an AI who needs to work perfectly every time.
#*I am a real person, '''not a robot or an AI''' who can always follow every single comment. Hence, my IP's releases cannot always be perfect.
# '''Most important:''' I would like to wait for many years until computers get more advanced before continuing on [[Spacetime Plaza]] (more specifically, the hotel zone in the northwestern side of the complex).
#* Let's say that if I manage to complete this complex in June 2027, other users may still not have enough time and money to upgrade their computers by then.
# '''Other important factor:''' I do not want people I know in real life to know about "this hobby" at all, as doing so may cause them to "exploit my skills" for either higher studies (anywhere in the world) or any kind of job (whether paid or not). Only when I reach my early sixties (or late seventies) in the far future can those people know that.
#* To save time and improve realism, it's better to use SketchUp or a similar program for such thing.
#* I always consider [[Skyscraper Wiki:About|Skyscraper Simulator]] as a ''game'', not a professional simulation. Even if there is a "graphical building designer" officially created by eventhorizon in the future, SketchUp will still do better for real life jobs.
#* '''With all of this, I need to implement an isolated environment (with a desktop computer^, optionally with a dedicated graphic card) before my dream of [[Spacetime Plaza]] can come true.'''
#* I still spend time well for important matters in real life, while allocating some days when I can stay alone in my "headquarter" to work on my [[buildings]].
#From #3 above, let's say that when I am sitting idle listening to music, surfing the Internet, or reading a book, my phone would be very silent as if its battery were completely empty. However, when I start working on any building of mine, I would receive a call or a message at that very moment.

<small>^TBH, I don't want to buy a new "gaming laptop" just to work on my buildings, and I do not want to run the simulator on a "regular laptop" anymore, as doing so may shorten its life and cause me to lose some important data.</small>


By keeping my IP isolated here, people would have more time to read what I said before deciding whether to download or not, which should lessen any possible error reports.
I would regularly pack up and make a new release at the forum, but the changelog may not be fully accurate as I cannot keep track of every single change.

As being treated like an AI or a bot every time is very annoying, and some people who read my topic may just see "error messages" or "missing textures" and don't download* [[Mn10 IP|my buildings]] at all, it's time to separate my IP's topic into two:
After having finished the atrium on the 2<sup>nd</sup>-3<sup>rd</sup> floors, I had an idea of modifying the 5<sup>th</sup> floor. To begin with, I extended the west and east departments on this floor 10 ft. northwards, meaning that the Freight and Patient Transport elevators now open to their dedicated lobbies*, instead of a hallway linking the entire floor. However, I made it possible to walk around this floor's entirety by simply opening some doors (''without'' having to unlock them first) and going through them, unlike on the 4<sup>th</sup> floor where each elevator lobby is totally isolated from the other ones.

Download links[edit source]

As the landscape cutting issue has been fixed, my buildings should run fine on the September 24, 2025 build. However, if anything breaks unexpectedly, you might wish to revert to either RC4 or RC5.


Installation instructions:

  1. Open the downloaded file in your preferred program, then open the folder with the same name as the archive.
  2. If done correctly, you should see the "buildings", "data", and other script folders.
  3. Select ALL listed folders inside and copy them to your Skyscraper root folder, replacing all files when prompted.


Note to everybody:

  1. Buildings that may resemble real-life places were created only because they are my favorites.

The future of this IP[edit source]

I deeply apologize to announce that it will be a very long time before the next release of this IP comes. There are some reasons behind this.

  1. Whenever I browse to the forum thread (including the former and current ones), I would see "error reports" (whether about missing textures or large buildings stalling/crashing on lower-end computers) and "requests to add or change files (such as in GitHub)" more than "compliments about my buildings."
    • It's fine if users who like my buildings prefer enjoying them silently, but seeing error or requests almost every day making me feel really like a bot or an AI who needs to work perfectly every time.
    • I am a real person, not a robot or an AI who can always follow every single comment. Hence, my IP's releases cannot always be perfect.
  2. Most important: I would like to wait for many years until computers get more advanced before continuing on Spacetime Plaza (more specifically, the hotel zone in the northwestern side of the complex).
    • Let's say that if I manage to complete this complex in June 2027, other users may still not have enough time and money to upgrade their computers by then.
  3. Other important factor: I do not want people I know in real life to know about "this hobby" at all, as doing so may cause them to "exploit my skills" for either higher studies (anywhere in the world) or any kind of job (whether paid or not).
