    ...an older concert hall interior like The Vienna State Opera House, the Musikverein Wien, Carnegie Hall  or Royal Albert Hall.

    Well, if money is no object there is this: https://www.turbosquid.com/3d-models/3d-interior-scene-opera-garnier-1194044

    ...If funds weren't, I wouldn't be making the suggestion here.

    It doesn't have to be an exact replica, just have the basic look of the older venues.  it doesn't even have to be the full hall just forward area with stage and use an HDR for the surrounding environment. 

    The only performance venue sets we have here tend to be more like club settings or are of modern design.

    Jack's Sacrament is large, very highly detailed yet doesn't cost an arm and a leg.

     

     

    Still not cheap but a bit more reasonably priced: https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-models/interior/other/luxury-theater-hall

    And if you can use it this is really inexpensive: https://www.daz3d.com/aslan-theater

    or if you can use an HDRI: https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-models/interior/other/opera-hdri

    ..the latter would still need a modlled stage that fit with the surroundings.

    And just today a nice free HDRI showed up:https://hdrihaven.com/hdri/?h=theater_01

    or this: https://hdrihaven.com/hdri/?h=music_hall_01

    Maybe you could find a stage that would fit one of them

    ...both look very promising. Thanks 

    Looked at the Aslan Theatre and knowing how Jack arranges his sets I could omit some items (like the banners) and it would make a nice classic recital hall one might find in London or the on the Continent. Also noticed I already have it (must have purchased it in the PC+ sale, got so much stuff than at incredible prices).

    How about Washington, DC monuments?

  • nonesuch00nonesuch00 Posts: 17,929

    The entire Washington, D.C. Mall would probably be a big seller and unlike Manahattan or even a small smart of Manahattan, the Mall is reasonably doable with all the buildings that are ignored in the post cards left out. And I'd still like Miami Beach, the neon section that is sort of classic Spain, classic Art Deco, and classic 50's neon all rolled into one. You can see quick glimpses of it at night in the music video from 1992 'Just Another Day' by Jon Secada.

    Anyway, I bought Faveral's Le Village Bundle on sale yesterday so i'm happy.

  • nonesuch00nonesuch00 Posts: 17,929

    I made a scene roughly approximating the ad copy using the Faveral Le Village Bundle & converted it to iRay via the Uber iRay preset & added a bit of emmisive lights to the poster that was earlier interested. I left most of the street sides empty so if you want to mix in more of the Le Village building or try the Victorian Shoppes or other models it's ready. Nothing more.

    The scene is attached for download to the render page in the my DAZ Gallery, however a test to see if I could actually download the scene file actually failed in two browsers. Maybe it as to be scanned for malicious code or something.

    The Forbidden City, and Japan's Imperial Palace, definitely!

    There's a full Forbidden City out there in 3D https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-models/exterior/landmark/completed-the-forbidden-city

    But the problem is that it's not made for DAZ, it's not modular (so you can't single out a given building to make inside shots for example, and the scaling is simply horrible to get right for DAZ.

    I'd love a more modular one where you can either load the "full scene" or each building with its court. It would also allow to buy it part by part, avoiding a bleeding wallet right off the bat.

    I haven't found any good equivalent for Japan's imperial palace either :/

    I am pretty certain I have seen a much cheaper and more detailed version than that

    but cannot recall where, Unreal Marketplace posssibly?

    Hum, I've been looking around for a detailed version too, but unfortunately, they are either not given in formats I can convert to a Daz-friendly format, or more heavily priced. cgtrader make the conversion for you if you need, so it's a plus. If you remember which one it is, I'll take a look at it.

    well Unreal Marketplace not where, I just checked but I know I have definitely seen it in 3D quite a while ago not recently even

    sadly my search skills not helping

    update, I found a dead link not sharing

    it was called "the forbidden city beyond space and time" and made by IBM but appears to be no longer available

    I do remember navigating it

    https://www.pcworld.com/article/152126/virtual_forbidden_city.html

    about it here, I no longer have it sadly

    One thing I have not seen which used to be common down here (South Texas) is houses built on pier and beam, with the (tiny, terifying) crawlspace underneath.

    Would there be any problem with building a set from public domain blueprints? Doing a google search fort "public domain blueprints" I see all sorts. It seems to me, that using one of these would be a way to get the proportions correct. Depending on the blue prints you might have to guess window height (unless you can find pictures of the outside).

    According to Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyright_in_architecture_in_the_United_States you can't copyright architectual works created in the US before Dec 31, 1990, so most modern stuff is probably out of bounds, but most my neighborhood was built in the 70's. I think I could get the reletive size/proportions of a lot from a Google Map Satellite image.

    I would like to see the D-day landing beach diorama without all the military stuff and trenches, maybe with a gravel street and a small parking area at the back side of the sand dunes

    You're the 2nd to request that street so maybe one of the PAs will do it.

    Kyoto Kid has a two word username so I cannot tag him

    but Kitbash3D has a limited time Aristocracy mini package that looks like something he would like
