I really like the separation of your urban area from the suburb. I just would like to see it fully developed. Dont forget to turn off the grid while taking pictures!

    Very nice. Now I am not sure whether you've done this, but perhaps it's time to connect the new cities with others so Sims from all corners of your region can take advantage of the exciting new development.

    Very nice Downtown districts there, I like the well balanced skylines in particular. There's nothing worse than skyscraper jungles in my opinion. I also like the green spaces you put in there. I've recognized a lot of your, they're perfect for that kind of cities.

    Awesome downtowns, but I particularly like the suburbs. It's cool how some streets use the asphalt SAM streets, but others are the normal grey ones. Diversity makes it realistic, since not all streets are uniform...and stuff....

    As always, top-notch work all around! The parking lots placed behind the buildings are a great touch, and the ones with the dark textures fit in very well. There may not be any traffic on the streets, but at least there's plenty of parked cars to go around. 3.gif I really like how you made the school with the added driveways and parks. The realism levels are really off the charts. 2.gif

    Well, one day short of a whole month since my last post... there is no excuse, for I am a Spore addict now. 17.gif

    So then, I have been playing Sc4 only very rarely, though I make up for lost time in LE these days, Oh do I have so much to show! I managed ten screen-shots for this Update of Erie, rest will have to wait. 19.gif

    So, here you have it at long last!

    Erie, North Dakota

    Update 2

    Here we see the latest of the Inner city area.

    That is it for the next week or so, maybe I'll get a quick update of Whitby after the weekend, but please don't expect a whole lot. 41.gif

    Hm.. Yeah.


    Feedback:

    Tia-may:

    Hm, well, not quite sure what you mean...but thanks anyway!

    PhilsCafe:

    I do agree with you. I quite fancy realistic simcities, drives me crazy when I see some of these so called skyscraper forest's...

    Boggy1:

    I believe you got your muffin.

    Thank you kind sir, I appreciate all comments 48.gif

    Wrightguy0:

    Hmm. I like it, actually, I shall keep it in mind, thanks! 2.gif

    phoenix7:

    Also a good suggestion, I'll think about it! 

    thank you. 19.gif

    Jill Jacobs:

    Agreed, and thanks. 1.gif

    beebs:

    Aw well, you should come out from under that rock more often. thanks for commenting!

    GreekMan:

    War? nah. Partnership, maybe. 48.gif

    I have integrated a large scale tram system to former Dowling, can kind of see it in the last screen-shot. But I won't be using it with any other cities, as it is too much of a bother, and the NAM has greatly limited its uses.

    fabsies55:

    Ugh, tell me about it, could take months before remanence of an actually city start to appear30.gif  Thank you for your Comments... both of 'em. 2.gif

    Minty:

    Well, fine then! I've hired Grant anyway!

    Haha, just kidding. Thanks anyway =D

    ky72x:

    There is an explanation to why there are no cars on the street... see, I've plopped %100 of the buildings and lots up to this point, and have yet to un-pause the game, so... I haven't quite worked around how I can keep the functional buildings - more specifically the residential ones - from abandoning when it comes time to hit the 'play' button, if ever. I guess I'll have to learn to photoshop then, eh? 41.gif Thanks for Commenting!

    art128:

    Thanks.2.gif

    CraigKingOfIreland:

    Thank you, and Welcome! 1.gif

    well, that's generally it, I used a mix of CPs terrain DAT files for a custom fit, which all also can be found on the STEX. 19.gif

    Thanks for commenting!
