You know I'd like to create a level of Lara raiding in a huge building in Japan like that red Tokyo Tower or Sunshine 60 building, Emperor's Palace, or maybe Diet Building (can't figure out which one is the best!). I would love to make a texture sets for those place but I just don't know the look of that places,Once I went to Japan five years ago and admired it architectural design but I'm still not sure the places do still stay the same, now if someone could give me addresses to some websites that provides pictures of those places or maybe their architectural info (simple maps will do) I'll build that level easier. I just love Japan!

check my Tokyo Tomb Raider website first: http://intelligentsia.online.fr/tokyo.html

You can see which buildings I am working on.
Remember skyscrapers are nearly impossible to create because there is a limit to how high you can go before the computer stops redrawing. 6 storey levels high.

I am working on downtown Shinjuku, Tochou building (outside view is impossible, already tried it) and the building NEXT to Tokyo Tower. I think Tokyo tower is a cool idea
because you can use the graphics from TR2.
(red metal textures).

For textures type in "Japan Pictures"
and other such phrases in search engines. You will find many pages on buildings in Japan.
By the end of the year I should have quite a few skyscraper and local texture sets ready, as I recently filmed and collected textures from some major buildings.

But making downtown Tokyo seems the most realistic thing to make as most buildings are 5 storeys or less.

Hey, nice site you got there! I think I will build Tokyo Tower for my next project! I'll modify some textures and I will be needing a night Tokyo panorama seen from Tokyo tower a custom-made objects with few DFX modification...It's seemed that I'll be very busy in this holiday event! Hope it will be done ASAP!

I have nearly finished making the Tokyo
night skyscraper skyline. It was made with one of those panarama cams.

So you won't have to do that work.
