Awesome regional picture! I loved the previous update before that too.

The sloped road down to the marina looked amazing!

I can't wait to see more of your region now.

Welcome to page 37!! :party:

    You have nice work here. This proves that Maxis Highways can still look good in the right environment. Although I strongly prefer RHW, MHW still has a niche within my own urban areas (even urban areas are almost exclusively RHW, but occasionally MHW sneaks in).

    Replies!!

    City_Master [x3] - Thank you very much for your kind words! I'm glad you notice and appreciate all the things I do to give my cities some depth and detail. Hope you enjoy the future updates!

    vivapanda [x2] - Thank you for your support! I'm glad you are liking what you see!! :D

    SimCoug [x5] - First off Thank you for commenting on my tile glitch. I too thought it had something to do with the tiles not lining up but what's weird is I can open a city run it for a little while and then save to region and it levels back out. Isn't really too much of a hassle just irritates me when you can see tile borders since these are all medium tiles!! Thank you for all your comments I am glad you enjoy the work I put in!!

    Markus J - Thank you!! It was hard to think of something to fit along that diagonal. The location of this zoo is basically inspired by the San Francisco Zoo which is right on the coast!! Hope to see you again soon!!

    Fox - Thank you for welcoming us to this page with such enthusiasm!! I'm glad you like the zoo!! Technically speaking it is the maxis zoo lol just modular!

    Patricius Maximus - Thank you! Truth be told I am intimidated by the RHW! It came out after I quit playing SC4 and since I have been back into it and I haven't messed with it at all. I plan to use it in the rural areas and get used to it and go from there!!

    Thanks again everyone!!

    Here is just a region pic for now, all of the recent updates have been in the tile to the west of downtown! All medium sized tiles 5 total. 3 Completed 2 Development

    So everything I've seen so far was in that tiny part? You just made me extremely curious to go back into older updates!

    Hey everyone quick mosaic before I head to class!! Quick replies too

    testuser1234 - Hey thank you for giving me some feedback. I couldn't agree with you more the only reason I haven't used the curves is I'm not sure if they exist with the current under rail textures I use!! If you happen to know of the file please let me know but I've tried searching to no avail :cry:

    vivapanda - Thank you for the kind words as always my friend!!

    SimCoug - Thank you! Those lots happen to be by SFBT and they are amazing!! They are SFBT Under Highway lots I think that should get them to pop up they might be over at SC4D don't quite remember where I got them but thats where Andreas resides these days I believe.

    Enjoy the mosaic!! Same tile almost done about to start the flora work then carry on to the next one!

    Region is at 175k pop little side note for those curious
