Hi, I'm going to make a laboratory, what do I need for that? And how do I make the roof and walls and underground sewer-tunnels?
The laboratories I want to make are underground, so they'll be dark and old. There will also be sewers-like-tunnels linking them.
I'm quite disappointed at making laboratory roofs, props, and choosing walls or something round-like for tunnels that are also half filled with green water.
What can you suggest for making underground sewers and laboratories?

Well the green water's pretty simple. Just use the WaterPlane.mdx from the UTM. As for circular pipes... well you're probably going to have to make them yourself... my best suggestion is taking two of the Arch:Cityscape Door doodads from the UTM and making one of them upside down and then placing another one right side up on top of it.

Ok here is a picture of what I want a sewer to look like http://techyum.com/sewer.jpg
A second picture: http://www.riversides.org/websiteimages/sewer_400.jpg
And what a wall in a laboratory I want to look like should be: http://farm1.static.flickr.com/174/431176816_591ec5632e.jpg?v=0

I just want that sewers doodad from Cityscape, the sewers doodad, have its skin applied on both sides, or the inside, so when I move the camera in the sewers doodad, I can see its walls from inside. How to make that?

Ok I think I get it. I'll try to turn the sewer vent inside out and use Magos Editor to put its vertices on the same skin which is used, for example, by Doodads\Dungeon\Props\SewerVent\SewerVent0 model.
The problem is that it's two sided and I have to put the skin on the right side...

Well, if you're inside the pipe, then if the two-sided texture is placed only on its sides, but not on the exits, then from inside the pipe you won't see the exits but only the sides, so.. I just bitten out a half from the poor pipe and have to make new one..

EDIT: Done, the pipe is now two-sided, can be walked in. Here's the first version of it. and the second version is marked as SewerVent0Ver2, which has its exits open.

EDIT: I'm going to make a sewer... right now.. dark and with green water... and a marine in it.. for terrain purposes.

EDIT: the models don't work ingame. Going to requests section.
