      Hi All
      I don't even know how many car parks I've posted here over the years – so, here we go again 😉
      I love this particular task – the scenes are always clearly defined, naturally limited by the outer walls. This almost reduces the effort to zero in most cases for the often very tedious task of creating scenic backgrounds. As a rule, these types of buildings are very similar. So if you have a certain repertoire of the components and assets typically required here, and if there is also a certain and usually given building grid, you can make rapid progress, regardless of whether there are only 300 parking spaces or 3000.
      Nowadays, I focus only on specific features of each project, such as the nature of the entry and exit car ramps or the special drive-in or drive-out situations, but no longer on the actual size of the facility.

        For such a mundane topic, you ALWAYS have a way of turning it into something of interest and worthy of a look or twenty. Very nicely done.

              This is actually the first time I've come across the word ‘mundane’ in your comment, and if my translator is right, it really does apply – everything there is indeed ‘mundane’! But these things come as easily to me as sausages to a butcher. No problems, quick progress, and everyone's happy in the end.
              I'm very pleased with your comment. Tanks!

                ... Thans Rich, by #2, you probably mean the floor plan excerpt. Thank you for your compliment. I've just realised that I've been using the same light fixture component unchanged in all these building types since Enscape was launched 😉
                So this section reveals at least two possibly useful pieces of information: 1. how lazy I am, and 2. that you need just as many light fixtures as you would need real lamps screwed into the ceiling to illuminate such a thing properly .

                    Thanks, Jo-Ke – these squares are light fixtures from Enscape – in this case, a rectangular type – which actually generates and emits light, while the visible ceiling light only pretends to provide light.
