Nope, off center slightly to the left. I modeled it from the screen shots that I took :P

lol, of course. I knew you would know since I had to prove to you what shape it was and the fact that it sat WITHIN the footprint of the restaurant when you overlay it with the map from the computer.

In case you are wondering just exactly how the Visitor Center is laid out...
Image
Here's the first floor. The Cafe is the only thing that's close to being finished (as it's what I've been focusing on lately).

Image
Here's the second floor.

Image
Here's an overview of the cafe. And yes, those are the murals from that area. I had to recreate the brachiosaur one (as many would know from the thread that Draco posted the main mural in). Also there's another mural in the back of the cafe and that is also from the cafe.

Image
Here's a shot you don't get in the movie :P Shows the displays a bit better. The display closer to the shelving is the one where you see the "Making of Jurassic Park" book on the shelf before it pans over to Ellie and Hammond. I haven't finished the UVWs for the wall there yet.

Lookin great, dude. Nice planning out with the shapes. ;)

I've just realized that a lot of my progress in JPDS over the past few months has been due to the sort of area-specific focusing you mentioned to me, in how I've split up JPDS1 into a bunch of sublevels for modding purposes.. It's really how I should have done it all along.

More progress on the VC. I finished the side rooms and started work on the Kitchen/Cold Storage/Receiving area. The big thing coming off the back of the Visitor Center is the building's Trash Compactor (It's what stores and such use instead of common dumpsters so employees don't have to go outside to dump trash). And yes, the compactor is a separate model just in case someone wants to install one in a building in one of there levels (all you need to do is cut a hole in the wall and place the compactor there :P)

Image

And here's a closeup of the cafe's patio (you can see this in the scene where Hammond gives his Petticoat Lane speech.

Any and all disagreements between me and ChrisDoucette have been settled as of now.

ChrisDoucette, when we decide to just talk on points we agree upon, isn't as bad as he is when I talk with him on points we disagree upon. He stitched his own mural together with more care and dedication than Draco did for his (I would bet it's because Draco was making his mural for use in Trespasser and it wouldn't matter if it was low resolution and blurry in places). Chris says he's still working on his mural and plans on attempting to obtain an HD copy of Jurassic Park to make an even higher quality version of the mural.
