Tidewater Region

[+Guest]

In this CJ, we will be following the Tidewater Region as it develops several cities.

I can't really tell you how many mods I used, since I must have over 1,500 files in my plugin folder. However, no money lots were used and I won't use cheats either.

(The images on this CJ will be in Portable Network Graphic (PNG) format. Internet Explorer may have some trouble with transparency in those formats.)

Pictures! Where are they? Well, to start, I'll let you gawk at a region shot. The region was completely made with the built-in God Mode tools. (My Landscape Designer is botched anyhow )

Stand by for updates and the first developments in this beautiful landscape...

Beautiful region!

I'll keep an eye on it.

Here's a small update...

We will be visiting Keider Heights, a small town that sprung up near the Tidewater River mouth.



The local population seems to have gone with eco-friendly energy, though at the expense of many amenities...



The residential district...



And a new area about to be cleared for more development.



That's it for now, but don't forget to check for updates...

Great Snow-capped Region. Looking forward for this CJ

Great job with your terraforming! Lots of open space, but will it stay that way? Looking forward to seeing more!

Not bad...Its very simple and the land looks good....

[Fairlane500 8]

Awesome, very realistic small-town feel. I like it.

10 thumbs up, I think it looks very nice, and your region is very perdy.

WHERE DID YOU GET THEM TREES? OH PLEASE TELL ME!

Hey again, and thanks for all the comments I didn't expect so many of them to be honest .

aasim45, Cjah, screamomatic, jacqulina: Thanks!

lookinin, Fairlane500: It might be small now, but you'll have to wait to see how much it grows .

1234: I believe they're CycleDogg's God Mode trees. Search on the STEX for CDT.

And now, for a small update on Keider Heights.

Seems like some farms have sprung up around the borders of Keider Heights.



The center of the town keeps developing, and there are over 500 sims already living here.



Unfortunately, dirty industry has also grown west of the center. Some sims worry that on windy days the air in town might become too polluted to breathe.



That's it for now, don't forget to check back for updates as always . (And sorry for the slight smiley overuse.)

Nice Progress you have done on your CJ. Though I kind of think that the one-way road in the second picture is quite unnecessary. (and problematic for a few sims who may wan't to go the opposite direction)

[sloppet 3]

nice updates, interesting start...

I didn't mean it in a bad way - I love rural CJ's, and was wondering if this would be one since the solar power seems to contrast a bit from the farms. In either case, looks really nice, keep up the great work!

When SC4 came out, dense cities were popular. Now it seems like if you have a city with over 50,000 sims, it is not beautiful. These rural towns are cool!
