This article needs a picture of the complete view of the building, that is missing atm

No worries! Here is the full folder paths to help out.

CS Local Saves
C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\Local\Colossal Order\Cities_Skylines\Addons\Assets

Workshop File Location
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\255710

(Each Workshop item has its own folder inside the 255710 numbered by its ID found in the url of the workshop item)

Example: this assets url is https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=653817552
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ID number^
The folder is 653817552 for this asset.

ah nice. i'll search for that once i re-start the game. thanks.

ah... thanks...
think i need to save this reply somwhere to refer to it when i come across this problem again - gives a sort of solution.
at least you know how it works :)

Updated: RICO Removed

The theme manager is for growables only. Assuming you are using RICO aswell. It sounds to me that RICO is converting the growable asset to a unique which then the theme manager will not recognize. So RICO needs to be removed from the growable. There are several ways to do this.

One way is to copy the asset from the 255710 folder into your local CS Addons/Asset folder and delete the RICO file.

And the best way is for me just to remove RICO from this asset on the WS so that if others want to use the theme manager for this asset like you, they can:)

I'll update this shortly. TBH I didn't realize this had RICO still. Thought I had already removed it. RICO has cause several minor problems like this for growables. Another one I hate is that RICO Growables need to be manually deleted. Anyways I'll remove it and I hope this helps.

So in this case that makes it problematic to find it in the list in Theme Manager - well... impossible. I found it previously when trying to get one of the other buildings linked to one of the styles...
Would that be possible not to make 2 in 1 but rather seperately? I know it's a lot of work apparently... unless you know a quicker solution.

This page is labeled as a Building, Office which means it is a growable. The only way to plop or search for it is to use mods that will turn it into a ploppable. Such as RICO or Plop the Growables.

Meaning WITHOUT the mods it is a growable... And WITH the mods it will function as RICO or ploppable.

This asset was uploaded before those mods were even released. If I had uploaded this after those I would not have made it a growable in the first place. It would be just a Unique Building.

that would mean it's not growable, it's either ploppable or rico. nothing else as you said. pitty though.

You can't find it because it is a growable. You will need mods like RICO or Plop the Growables.

Oh... shamely... it is rico.

No one would be happy for any rico... the only thing is that i can't find it in the game anyway.

+1

I look forward to having the 1:1 scale as well as your other projects in game. This building is pretty unique and as carlfatal mentioned it would be best as a unique/RICO. Then I could just choose a spot for it easily.

I am working on a 1:1 scale although I have a few other projects first.

I have to agree with Darf. I love this building, it´s looking damn nice but it is ridicously underscaled. I don´t mind the real thing, I only compare buildings ingame. If you would make a 1:1 version, RICO or unique - I think, some people including me would be happy then.

Great work, we need more like this!

Its a growable reprentation for the game. Its not suppose to be the real thing. These style of building is something vannilla and the workshop lacks.

Yes, he took it down because it was not up to scale. But, he did reduce the floor count on this to make the building propotional to cims.

So if you are trying to replicate chicago, this is the wrong asset. If you want another art deco growable in your city this is a great addition.

The pitsfield building sits on a 50m plot. That's around 200% scale, it'll look ridiculous. There's a reason AJ3D took them down.

Beautiful building, thanks!
