Apologies if this news has been shared already but yeah, like the title says the Andoria City set by Magix 101 is available for $10.99 on Fast Grab which I think is good value.

    One day I will have enough ram to load and use this awesome set. No I don't think anyone has posted this Harry.

    Ooh this looks good deal, thanks for the heads up. Can it be loaded up in sections? Does anyone know? I only have 4gb of ram in my pc.

    It loads as one but you can then delete parts that you don't want after. I had 3.25 GB of ram and it loads ok, bit laggy when moving around on my old machine so you shouldn't have a probelm.

    Thanks. Fast Grab always knows when I haven't checked it, I wouldn't have known.


    That's a pretty decent price. Finally got that one out of my wishlist.


    It looks like it'd take a gob of ram, glad to hear my puny new machine can manage it.

    Great set, and well worth it for twice the price. It works on substandard machines too: I have used it on a 2GB RAM machine.

    I picked this up in this Fast Grab and installed. One thing to note: the installer for Andoria by Night puts things in the wrong path, or it did on my machine. It creates an extra Studio directory underneath your normal content path, so instead of installing to, for example

    \Studio\content\Props\Architecture\HMann\Andoria\Andoria-City

    it creates the path

    \Studio\Studio\content\Props\Architecture\HMann\Andoria\Andoria-City

    I filed a bug report on it. Once you understand what's happening, it's easy enough to move files to where they should be.

    Other than that, if you've got the RAM, it's a gorgeous set. Once it's made all of the shadow maps for its lights, it renders kind of shockingly fast, at least without anyone in it. No idea how it'll do once someone is actually there.

    I've wanted this a long time but my old rig had only 2 gigs of ram. With the onboard graphics (ugh) and OS that left me only about 750 megs when I'd open Studio. But now I have 12 gigs AND Andoria!
