Thank you Pauljs. I'm glad you like the extra window details. I still need to add that table next to the restaurant window.;) I think that you and ShawnDriscoll are right about baking textures. Baking textures can also save a lot of rendering overhead, at least from what I've read/heard, especially with the procedural shaders. I plan to pick up the Baker plug-in this week. It sounds like a good investment. Adding extra detail in an image editor adds to the fun. Maybe I should give this model a little added "grunge".
I'm gonna go add to the neighborhood. Someone mentioned that I needed a bar to add to the realism. I might just copy a little haunted bar/hotel I know of. Every musician I know who has played in that bar, or slept in the hotel has an eerie and often amusing story. It's only 2 stories and might fit in nicely.
