and Cycledogg, if you are reading this (haven't seen you on for a while), this modification is a true marvel. some remarkable work in there.

I've just applied this mod to my region ... what a transformation!!

I think one of the things I like most about this is that finally you have a basic set of landscape textures that you don't feel you have to cover in parks between areas of development.

I just applied this to my region and WOW[:0]

It's like it is a brand new game or something, the textures are just amazing. No longer does the wilderness look dead. It actually has life. I would put this mod right beside the NAM on the must have list. It is simply beautiful and should not be missed.

I began using this great mod in my Region Blog (see my sig) last week, and can honestly say that htis is the best looking mod for SC i have ever come across - everything looks so natural, so real, that my pics make me feel like I am there.

Although seeing without a building or road etc on it looks much better.

EDIT: One more thing, Cyle Dogg, give us an update. I really wanna know what happens next (this period of US history intrigues me)

I really think this modd should go on the STEX, that way everyone has a chance to see it and download.

    Well, I'm glad to hear people are enjoying the old mod.  I've been kind of busy lately, but I'm hoping to have the tree portion of the new mod on the STEX within a week.  (Which will make the old trees obsolete.)

    Updates will probably be few and far between for the next month or so.  (I Haven't lost interest.  Just don't have much time.)

    Anyway, here's a small update

    Looking for prairie dogs

    Some more shots along the Little Missouri

    Capt. Lewis wrote:  Many tracks of the [grizzly] bear of enormous size along the river shore . . . We have not as yet seen one of these animals, though their tracks are so abundant and recent.  The men as well as ourselves are anxious to meet with some of these bear.  The Indians give a very formidable account of the strength and ferocity of this animal, which they never dare to attack but in parties of six eight or ten persons; and even then are frequently defeated with the loss of one or more of their party.

    I just started a new CJ using your terrain, it looks so good in open spaces, I don't have to cover everything with some sort of park now.

    CycleDogg, your mod is simply FANTASTIC !

    I've started using it yesterday and I'm already in love with it

    May I ask you a little question ? I ave remarked some red zones in your prairies. However, these zones do not show off in my terraforming...

    Am I doing something wrong ? Are these textures present in the beta mod or only in the latest one ?

    Thanks for your help !

    Thats's your old mod? wow...i kind of thought i had noticed a few changes, but dismissed them...i am probably still overlooking a lot of it. however, even this old mod is quite spectacular, CycleDogg. The improvements it has made to a spot in a region i am working on is amazing.

    Hello, Cycledogg.
     
    Shortly after I read about your CyclePuppy's World site, I visited it and downloaded everything on the page.  Shortly after that, I found your Lewis & Clark CJ.  I feel like I've come home.
     
    Please let me congratulate you on what is undoubtedly going to be a breakthrough event for SimCity4.
     
    Once I had a chance to read through your CJ, I immediately subscribed to it.  Cycledogg, I cannot begin to relate to you the feelings of tranquility and peacefulness that your images have invoked on my psyche.  I could just feel myself sitting on the cool forest floor under those beautiful cedar trees listening to the water lapping at the shore.
     
    Thank you for such a wonderful interlude to my otherwise wild and crazy day.
     
    I certainly will be keeping an eye on this CJ as well as will be excitedly waiting for further releases of your excellent mod.
     
    Regards,
     
    Vandy

     



    In the end you will see, You is you and me is me.

    Yeah all credits to you man, you are the best!

    It is mods like this that keeps my interest in SC4, and wow, when you think about all those mods that are out there that makes the game 10x better, it just strikes me how bad the game must have been in the beginning... heh well not bad, but half as fun as it is with all this realism to it!

    Keep up the great work!

    PS! Maby you could help out on some questions in the thread about your mod: Cycledogg's Terrain Mod thread

    Thanks for all the nice comments.9.gif
    Just to clarify: the mod people are downloading now is not exactly the same as the mods used in this journal.  It is an old version, with fewer textures and fewer trees.  I'm still working on getting the new mod finished up.  The trees are almost done, and should be up on the STEX sometime this weekend.  The textures will take a while yet, especially as I don't have a whole lot of free time at the moment.  (There's a thread for this mod now?31.gif  I'll check it out.)
