Chinatown Gate
Happy Chinese New Year!
This item includes two props, recreating the north and south gates of Haymarket Chinatown in Sydney, where Dixon St meets Hay St and Goulburn St.
Each gate includes a pair of guardian lions, and a unique pair of phrases displayed overhead. Search for "Chinatown" with Find It, each one is marked with an ‘N’ or ‘S’ to indicate which is which.
The prop also includes a basic spotlight effect using the custom effects loader. It’s nothing fancy, just a simple white spotlight, but I wasn’t happy with any of the default ones. The mod gave me the precision to reduce leaking and intensity to tuck the lights under the roof as a downlight on the art and overhead signs. I’ve listed it as required but it’ll work fine without it.
The surrounding city in my screenshots always looks lousy, but I’m very pleased with the model. If you find a place for it on a street that actually looks nice, please let me know I’d be happy to include a better screenshot here.
