A small diagonal neighbourhood within a large suburb.

Diagonals and FA!

The best way to anti-grid is to go full-on MMP! (it does help to throw in some diagonal lots too)

There can never be enough grid-busting...

Can't believe I'm the only one keeping this thread alive! Come on Korver! You're the king of anti-grids!

Finally finished disentangling this jumble of FAR + diagonal roads.

What I'm trying to replicate:

And now to actually start developing it all..

New lot for tadasu Ishihara Building which gives a W2W diagonal effect:

You can get it here:

Little bit of diagonal in Vancouver:

Thanks!

FA, Diagonal and Orthogonal all in one picture.

For posterity's sake... Some recent developments from Cindersville.

Still has an underlying grid, but I usually rigidly grid, so this is definitely a break from the norm:

Sometimes I have no idea what I'm doing but it turns out neat.

Just let the creative juices flow as I solve the puzzle how to connect everything up nicely

An octagon town! Yeah, it's still has some grid, but I did my best to break it a bit.

Huh?! How is diagonal lot alignment possible...? 

Is this some kind of a NAM feature or something?

If you tell me, I'll help you keep this thread alive.

I believe that CP used corner lots to make this work. The diagonal homes tend to show up on the corner of blocks too.

You only need to install some suitable growable diagonal lots, getting them to grow where you want though is less simple.

Indeed diagonal sections are compatible with the corner lot requirement, but that only helps so much with getting diagonal lots to grow where you want them. I find it's best to limit them to a single tilesets or do some other wizardry so you can better control them.

This guy has a bunch of Diagonal stuff in his videos.  Have not gotten to do stuff like this yet, but will probably do with Medium and smaller Hi-Res down the road
