Description:

Russian Government Building / White House (Moscow)

This mod brings a detailed recreation of the Russian Government Building into your Soviet Republic! Historically known as the House of Soviets of the RSFSR and widely referred to as the ‘White House’, this iconic landmark is located on the banks of the Moskva River and serves as the official residence of the Russian Government. In-game, it functions as a Town Hall (Горком), and employs up to 400 workers.

The real building stands 102 meters tall (119 meters with the flagpole) and features a 20-story tower built in the grand style of Soviet monumentalism, clad in white marble. Please note that the original 3D model used for this project was a freely downloadable asset of average quality by nekit360 on CGtrader, but it has been heavily modified and optimized to fit the game perfectly while preserving the original architecture and details.

A special note from the creator: I want to express my huge gratitude to Comrade Joe for his immense help. He did the vast majority of the heavy lifting on this project, and I am incredibly grateful for his work!

Project Breakdown: Original model and textures by nekit360 on CGtrader. Adaptation, heavy modifications, scaling, performance optimization, and full scripting done by Comrade Joe.

Key Features:

Scale: The building has been downscaled to roughly 75% of its real-world size to match the game’s proportions and fit nicely on your maps.

Collision: This asset is collisionless, making it much easier to place and build around in dense urban areas (provided they’re well flattened).

Customizable Flag: You can fly whichever flag you like! Simply open the mod folder, locate the flag.dds file, and replace it with your own texture.

Included Variants:

Realistic Version (With Ramps): Includes the grand ornamental ramps for maximum historical accuracy. Note: Due to game engine limitations, vehicles cannot drive on these ramps.

Compact Version: A streamlined version with a significantly reduced footprint by removing the outer ramps, making it easier to integrate into tight city layouts.

Construction Costs:

Due to its monumental nature and massive real-world size, this building remains a very expensive and prestigious project to construct. It requires a significant investment of resources, time, and advanced materials like mechanics and electronics to fully complete.
Please check the provided workshop screenshots to see the exact breakdown of the required construction materials.
