Wait... no... NOOOOO!

 

That's all wrong. Somebody in the Art Department screwed up! 

Guys, I'm so sorry... This is utterly embarassing...

Well, I told the boys down in fartsy artsies that I needed a festive image with a Happy Kitten theme, yes, but surely they should know me well enough to understand that I did not mean this kind of happy kitten

 

 

But this one:

 

 

The only Kitten that is safe from me. We ought to know the Movie where this one is from... And the scene, perhaps. And the reason of such bliss.

 

Thank you all for participating and supporting Show & Tell!

[Richard]

Well now you've done it. Andrew just left his office to go get another server. He didn't look like a 'happy camper' to me.

 

[NoPutt]

Kittens instead of cake, never would have guessed.

Congrats K, looking forward to the next thousand.

In honor of 1K I figured now is the best time to display my current progress with Course Forge!

First my Show part of the post!

Here's my progress on my first course so far:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Now for the Tell part of the post...

I'm sad to inform you that all I can do is tell you that I do not have access to Course Forge!

Actually it's quite nice. My only suggestion would be to figure out the 'lighting controls', it's quite dark.

Nice one, bagofholding. I enjoy a good jab of bitter sarcasm and yours is a real beauty. However, and I might repeat myself here for the 100th time, Unity is right there right now - and all that follows does NOT include CF - which does not work for me in U5. What follows is all Unity and nothing stops you from following suit.

 

Where were we? Ah yes. So I went, thinking "golf resort in African desert/savannah" and started constructing something slightly ethnic that might fit the bill. Here it is:

 

 

Accommodations for 48 parties (2 units per protrusion in the lower floor), huge balcony on top with computer controlled automatic shades. Still, it looked a bit dull in my 3D modeller, so I needed to bring this into Unity to see how it came across:

 

 

Ah, yes, that's a bit better. The new U5 standard shader is helping considerably. It also causes a few problems, but it's some sort of progress, I guess.

 

 

Oh, I can hear your thoughts right now: "But, but, but...", you would stammer, "...this is disgracefully NOT beautiful at all. It's hideous! African Ethnic Art would offer so many powerful inspirations, and all you managed to do, Mr. Kittenchoker, is a cheap and tasteless monstrosity without any charm!" Ah, yes, guilty as charged. My reply to this would be that I'm not good enough to create nice stuff in this particular specialty, but also that golf resorts preying on international tourists are generally god-awfully woeful places of gaudy, naff and trashy styles. Ever been to Sun City? I have. This structure still looks a lot better. In a disgusting Disneyland kind of way.

 

 

The Lodge will dominate the waterhole at the heart of the resort. It will be surrounded by greenery and wealth, whereas at the further outskirts the players will get molested by natives selling golf balls and perhaps small bags of kudu biltong. 

 

 

This one will be gaudy and strident, folks. No subtleties allowed, not at the Lodge, the only location to get blotto 24/7 within 250 miles. There's a topless revue show three times a day in the underground theater, please book your seats at reception well in advance. 

Oh, and Tara says hi.

Screw the desert golf. If I'm going to 'sweat' and get 'hot flashes', thank you, I'll do it in the theater. Here's my advance deposit for a month upon the Grand Opening.

 

 

O and hi Tara. If you would prefer, I'll book a 'suite'. Just send me an email to the 'confidential email address' I provided you. K11 won't mind, he'll be too busy with the Grand Opening details and choking the kittens to notice.

My doctor suggested that a desert climate might be good for my breathing problem?

But I am a little short on finances at the moment, so I am hoping that Richard  might

help out this poor New Yorker?  Thanks in advance Richard!  

[Kablammo11]

The Cellar Cabaret might very well make your breathing problem worse, Jim. Especially on weekends, when we have our bondage-themed Dungeon Specials. For more refined and affluent patrons, there also is the Blueballs Club in the back of the basement.

That's right: Oasis Lodge is a Golf Brothel. Losers without cash, please head for Scottsdale.

Here you go, my friend.

 

  

 

P.S. You may have some 'valuable' ones in there. So be sure to check the dates and mint marks when wrapping. See you at the Grand Opening. BTW, with your 'breathing problem', I recommend that you avoid the underground theater. I would hate to have you 'hyperventilate' and I really don't need any competition.

[NoPutt]

I like the structure a lot K. Kind of a Playboy Mansion meets Modern Chic (Sheik) .

Oh, I'm happy Tara made the journey, looks like she could use some sun.

Hi Tara !

[lefty1948]

Richard, How did you know that I used to be a coin collector?

Sold my complete collection in 2010.

BTW,  My doctor called and said there was a mix-up with

their charts and I don't have a breathing problem after all.

So, I am good to go to the underground theater!  

[Dazmaniac]

I reckon if Donald Trump gets wind of that structure, we'll be seeing one at Trump Doral, lol.

 

[Brucey Mc]

You should see the monstrosity of a fountain that has appeared outside the clubhouse at Trump Turnberry. I kid ye not!

Jim, you 'snooze, you lose'. Tara emailed me back her acceptance of my invitation. She also said that while they have a few rooms left, the underground theater is booked solid for at least a year after Grand Opening. Guess you stuck with the 'Blueballs' Club.

 

P.S. I'd put a 'New York' contract out on your Doctor for costing you this opportunity, or, at least, 'fire his ass'. I mean the guy should have his license to practice pulled. He does have a license, doesn't he?

[Brucey Mc]

Told you

[Kablammo11]

Oh Lord, that is utterly horrible!!!

 

But that object alone has so many polygons and particle effects that it is beyond the bounds of design at Oasis Lodge. Also, it's a locale that ought not instil horror and disgust, just a bit of frivolous tawdriness for the 50+ main demographic.

 

[Mike Jones]

Told you

So long as it's not on the course it's ok

[Brucey Mc]

Thankfully not Mike

[Jimbobh]

Have you looked at these (FREE) palm trees?
