Plattenbau ESK 400-600 supermarket

This asset is RICO only!


Hello Folks,

for today I present you a much needed and requested type of supermarket, which fits in perfectly with my other "Plattenbau" assets.
This particular building is part of a series of standardized GDR-supermarkets with varying sizes. I plan to recreate some of the other sizes in the future.


Naming scheme:

The two included buildings have been named after original blueprints I found.
This supermarket has been planned and built in Halle, hence the first three letters "HAL".
"ESK" describes the construction method used. The building is essentially made of metal pillars with concrete panels inbetween them.
"400-600" specifys the number of residents one supermarkt of this type can cater. The number is multiplied by 10.
"Edeka/Konsum" describes which supermarket chain the building belongs to, Konsum representing the GDR-era, Edeka the post GDR-era.
Here is an overview:


In-game:

I realized this building with the original supply ramp on one side, which is 1 meter below the ground. So to make use of it, you have to do some moving around with roads and fences.
The whole building is surrounded with 1 meter of basement and stairs, so it can accomodate small terrain height differences.

The buildings can be found under their names, starting with "HAL ESK 400-600" or alternatively by searching for "Plattenbau".
Their lot sizes and tris counts can be seen in the image above.
Both supermarkets have color mapping for the pillars and part of the ring around the roof. Both are RICO only, each with 36 high commercial working spaces.
This asset shares its main texture file amongst each other, so using the Loading Screen Mod to cut down on file size is advised.
The main texture file is also shared with my Plattenbau ESK 1000-1200 supermarket.

• Tris Main Model: 2736 (Konsum), 2407 (Edeka)
  
• Tris LOD Model: 46 (Konsum), 45 (Edeka)
  
• Texture Size Main Model: 1024x1024
  
• Texture Size LOD Model: 128x128
