    if you cannot read that, this is update time! Currently on update 44! This is the 2 of 3 updates of the "best of the best" of my showcase!

    In this update, I show you the best of the best suburbs that I have made. Some from old towns and some from new all mixed in there. I had to make a separate update between the suburbs and the rural because of the amount of content that I can show you. So, in the next update, its rural time! But for now, if you have any comments, questions, or tips for me, please, don't hesitate to tell me. I hope you enjoy this update with bonus special effects!

    nice work building on a hill.

    there's a trick so you don't get those ugly foundations when you build on a hill: leave a space between your residential lots like so:

    --------------- ----- = Road/Street

    RRRRRRRRR R = Residential

    XXXXXXXXX X = Blank Space

    RRRRRRRRR

    ---------------

    in the blank space, put a grass lot there BEFORE you grow your residentials. then it should put a foundation on the house, but not the lot. give it a try if you want.

    ---- End Tirade -------

    Very neat and orderly, like any respectable suburb. Nice choice of water mods too.


    Let no one yield, we're on the field where deeds eclipse the sun; where the brave are told on a thread of gold, the tapestry is spun. As they speak of dreams, their armor gleams, this calm before the storm... Where all can see their destiny, the bishop takes the pawn.

    Those farms are pretty awesome there. The first pics are good but the ones with gaps in between they're great

    Nice farms. Like I've said before, I like your naming of roads. With the griddiness of the farms and roads, I'm presuming this is supposed to be midwestern US?

    Yes, the farmfields in Teton View is suppossed to be like a Nebraska or a Kansas. In Beth Plateau, it is supposed to be like California with the valleys and the mountains. Thanks for the comment!

    Good view of the farmland. Just one thing I'm looking for the farmer's market. You draw out some nice regions. Just wondering where can people buy fresh fruits and veggies?

    Hey everyone! Here is update 46!

    This is a brand new update. (Finally!) This update is all about nature. It is about the first national park ever in my showcase. The area is called Hightower. There are just a few cabins amongst the mountains and just some flora and a trail and a few farms surrounding it. I included a special picture that shows the area snow capped back on Christmas day. So, if you have any questions, comments, or tips for me, please, dont hesitate to tell me. I hope you enjoy this update!

    Nice nature and farm pics. I like how the trails undulate over the terrain so smoothly. Perhaps some similar rolling terrain in the farm areas? Otherwise very well done.

    Hey mate, sorry I haven't stopped by in a while. I've been gettin' my game on, if you know what I mean. Anyways, you got some nice pics there. I wouldn't say they are my favorite though; just not my style.
