I saw that. Already downloaded it last night.

I'm kind of surprised they didn't send out the usual announcement. In previous weeks, they've always sent out notice of the freebie before said freebie was available.

Wow what a freebie, and it should compliment Urban Sprawl pretty well.

I've downloaded it by now and this city is cool and pretty large too. This is an awesome freeby indeed. I've been considering Urban Sprawl, but I can save quite some money now. Thanks CP!

not bad..;) almost thought there might be more Dystopia coming up, but can't sneeze at this..;)

WOW that is brilliant and I LOVE cities!!! **Dystopia is WAY cool too. Thanks for that link..otherwise I might have missed it! :)

It really doesn't hurt tp pay CP a visit each week on wednesday or so. I always do so. The only problem is most of the time I'm tempted to pick up something else during my visit too. Mostly small things since CP is lacking (thankfully) all of those large, screaming. hard to resist ads daz does have.

Nice.

BTW.. what happened to Paper Boy for Beta Boy...? Can't find him at CP.

Maybe the free offer expired, its always announced but until now never happend, am I right?

Thanks for the tip aeilkema! Nice freebie!!!

Paper Boy was mentioned as being "free for a limiited time only" or something like that. Sixus1 has done that quite a bit in the past year. A temporarily free item is later put up for sale. You might try IM'ing Rebekah to see if it'll be available again.

249211 polys A little bit high if you want to load the entire thing

I checked every day for the paperboy and never found it. I don't think it was ever put up.

Yes, it was, I downloaded it last week (paper boy). It is still there BTW, under the name "Alphaman and BetaBoy service release" ;o)

Thanks for the head ups on the cities freebie aeilkema, if they sent a newsletter I probably would not have paid attention since everytime I had checked the freebie mentioned was never there. I just got newspaper boy tonight, what a cutie! But it was not in with the regular freebies, it was a link from a freebie that said I might like it too.

Sorry about that. I remembered downloading the SR1 and as I had the News Boy too, I thought it was in the same package. ;o)

It's a nice city. Maybe a bit big, but look how many polys some figures have. Testuremaps may be more significant. The general look puts me in mind of the fifties and sixties, mostly the overhead wiring (telephone?) and the style of the street lights. It's a fairly dense urban area which hasn't been glossed up. Haven't tried yet, but it looks as though transparency settings would work to hide some things so that they could be replaced with different styles.

cool..more urban :)...the Poser market is getting fairly well covered now in urban scenery..this makes me happy..we've had enough of those bloody temples,lol not sure about the polycount though?..urban sprawl is only 50k..& my next one is 100k. now we need someone to start making some alpha-plane people/pets..detritus etc...gotta fill these streets up with some life :) Cheers Stefan

we've had enough of those bloody temples Get ready for Naked Vicki in an Alley with a Gun! ;-) bonni

Been there, done that, got the road-rash...

You hit the nail on the head AntoniaTiger about the style...it is supposed to have that 'retro' look. :) Alphaman and Betaboy needed some place to battle the forces of evil. Everyone enjoy! And as I said...the set doesn't have the versitility of many of the pay Urban City sets/scenes that you have all come to love. :) But what is does have is its own style and a certain ease of use in that simplicity. --Rebekah-- BTW--there will be coming soon...Gamma Girl and the Red Ghoul.

Rebekah, it's a great scene, ver enjoyable, thanks for giving it away for free! Even though I'm not really into creating superhero images (I do love to read superhero comics and watch movies though), it's still a great city with many uses. I love the scale of it, the camera settings are great and the lightsets very welcome to. Excellent work! By the way, Red Ghoul, that sounds interesting.

Les informed me that the buildings are body parts and can be set to not visible (and there won't be a hole in the ground) and another building if wanted can be dropped in even. :) And don't just thank us for the freebie, e frontier deserves credit also. :) --Rebekah--

Rebekah, I already did thank E-Frontier yesterday. I dropped them a mail first to thank them for this great freebie, since I wasn't a hundred percent sure if you guys were involved too. Do I need to thank anymore people :-)?

It's something I'd have to check, but the bricks look wrongly proportioned. Could be a US/US difference, but the vertical height looks wrong.

Hmmmm...you can thank all of the little people that made it all possible, Linda Carter, David Lynch and Carrot Top. ;p I didn't mean that you literally had to do that. Only a reminder that although we created it, they are suppling it as a freebie (for a limited time). Wronly proportioned bricks....I'll keep that in mind. --Rebekah--

That is the great thing about this forum, there is always somebody going to complain about something even if it is free.

Heh I wouldn`t know the proportions of a brick just to look at them but there were other complaints.

It is a toon environment; I don't think that Les measured the bricks. Sorry. You can always apply another texture map if you would like and it should work fairly well. :) --Rebekah--
