If you leave out required facilities, your punishment will be greater than if you exceed max dimensions.

A small 2-3 person box for local radio, national radio and one or more for television. Thats at least four. Here's an example:

To save space I was going to put balconies in front of the VIP boxes, and if the want to watch the game from seats then during the game they can go downstairs and sit in VIP seats reserved for them in the lower tier?

Control box can be done. I don't know if such exist in the old arena.

If you mean something like this you can do it:

Oh right so more of a Commentary box than a TV studio box? Ok, thats not a problem. Could I just convert VIP box seating into 4 section of 4 plus desks then or something? Do they have to be indoors?

What I was thinking was the boxes above the seats and the seats to be all together, not in cut off sections. So in the reegular seating, one entire section is VIP seating with better seats ect. Above the seating all around there is a 'wall of glass' of VIP boxes with balconies in front. If the VIP's want to sit and watch they go downstauirs to the seating level and there are special seats reserved for them in the VIP section.

If i incorporate an underground level in my arena can the dimensions of that level exceed the building limits since you wont be able to see it?

That will be ok. Feel free to use underground area for any facilities you wish.

really?! What are you stuck on? At least post what you've done.

[kaz03]

i completed the exterior and everything else is basically done but i wont have time to finish the concourse

[ressy14]

IMO the concourse isnt the most important thing to do

i have idea to make only one facade out of 4. So... and i have too much exams in this weeks.

here it is:

[Leedsrule]

I dont know, the deadline is tonight so just make something simple and finish it before midnight.

How about reflective metal panels on the side, or a mosaic tile wall with club colours on? Paited wall murial? Advertising?

Kaz, just make sure you enter something even if you dont finish the concourses. My arena isnt internally detailed (It has no concources or changing rooms or anything)

[ressy14]

it doesnt have stairs, seats, vip, etc, etc... So much to do without my enthusiasm

Fair enough :L Maybe next time. I certainly couldnt finish all that and make it into a presentation in 6 hours!
