I really like the park/plaza around the station, creates a great cutout area among the buildings.

I thought about this, and am still thinking about it because though I've thought about this, I still have more thinking to do as to stop thinking about it would mean not to think.

This store showed up in my city, except by night it's a night club. I swear it's a Maxis lot. Anyone know the requirements for how those bad boys grow? I wanna know incase, knowing my luck, my game does something stupid and I lose that little simulated source of strobe lights and drinks. 

Even simulated lives in a simulated city need to party

You are in luck because stores are commercial lots.Commercial lots can be plopped via Extra cheats dll

...

If you query the building, you should see a little check box to make the building historical. Do that, as it will prevent any other buildings from growing on top of it, Maxis or not (tho it looks Maxis :)).

A few farming shops/taverns along the Northern outskirts of Annuq.

<snap>

That's a really nice picture, but there are a few things bothering me. Nothing much tho:

1) Move the transit enable to the other side of that lot to prevent having a double street, which doesn't look so good.

2) Same for the upper lot. Move the entire lot one tile to the right and make the transit at the bottom, this will prevent the ugly cul-de-sac at the end of the street.

3) Following with the movements, this alley will change too, perhaps only grass and trees?

4) Since the alley isn't there anymore, you can close your lot here. IMO having two entrance to the farm is a bit excessive.

5) Same, since the alley disappear, you have to turn around the parking lot and make the entrance to the right (just after the entrance of the lot itself)

 

Just my opinion, though but I think it would look better that way.


I'll take a quiet life... A handshake of carbon monoxide.

Nah, it stays as it is. Besides those two buildings aren't farms, they are shops. Also I rather like double streets in places.


Dear sir/madam/whoever will read this!

This profile is now defunct.

Computer problems and issues with accessing my Imageshack account meant My SC4 CJ Scrapbook was lost and utterly irretrievable. This setback put me off SC4 for many months.

Apologies for the inconvenience and for the lost pictures.

But that SC4 itch did not go away and it had to be scratched! I have started afresh with a new account here- The British Sausage

The URS is a spiritual successor to the SC4 CJ Scrapbook.

With this update this will be the last time I visit my original Simtropolis account- admin/mods feel free to remove it or do whatever you need to do. I have no further use for the Ln X (BLANKBLANK) account.

While I do understand Art's sugestions, the thing is that in real life buildings and stuff are not always perfect.

Look around at the Workingman Productions website. It has some impressive SC4 content.
