HUNAUTURM

First; WOW, what a nice and unbelievable comments!! I'm satisfied to see I'm making people jaw-drop and lurking at here. That's the reason I'm making this CJ; just to show off my own skills and let people see how they can use these in their own regions!! I see a lot in other CJ's that I'm using in my own regions, so together we'll help eachother!!

An overview of the region.. It's summertime in Sauerland!! And the sun is shining over the hills and valleys!!

The radio & television tower that is situated on the summit of "Hunau" (+818m NAP)

A ingame-shot of the tower... To bad it's situated on the edge of the city-map!

Another real-life shot of "Sauerlands" valleys and in far sights the tower on top of the hills..

Also an ingame shot from birds eye viewing point!!

Stay tuned; there will be a lot more!!

SIEDLINGHAUSEN

Overview of the region; "Siedlinghausen" is a couple Km east of "Bödefeld"

The entrance from "Bödefeld" into "Siedlinghausen by B740

Some fields just north of the village of "Siedlinghausen"

Again a pic to compare to the realworld.. Nice; the sun shining over the valleys & hills!

View from the north, the roads takes some spins before it tumbles down into the valley..

The hairpin-bend from another view-angle

Overview of the twists and turns of the B740 as it comes into the village

Next update we'll close up more into the village..

I've been to these sorts of regions many times, and I can't believe how spot-on this is. Truly amazing. A real masterpiece.

[bernie 0]

I agree. Truly amazing

where did you get those pine trees?

[gabry85 2]

Wow, fantastic shots, excellent photoshoping! I like how you placed trees and I enjoyed the RL photos a lot!

wow, such awesome scenery - almost reminds me of southern Oregon. I love the little old towns, they looks so quaint and peaceful.

[Schulmanator 5,787]

I love the soft green of the terrain. Very soothing.

SIEDLINGHAUSEN CLOSE

By the way; you should "Google Earth" the areas! For example; "Bödefeld, NRW" or "Siedlinghausen, NRW" <- search these terms in "Google Earth" and see the likeness. You can clearly see the hairpinbend west of the village and also it's surrounding farmlands. The railline that crosses the valley.. etc etc..

The overview from over the hills. Notice on the left the hairpin-road..

The overview of the village small center and surrounding roads.

The central parts of the village, with church and old buildings surrounding it.

Another overview, now from the north-east showing point

The entire village that's following the small streams in the valley..

Next update we'll exit the village of "Siedlinghausen" by road and we'll take a little tour on it's surroundings

@ Bernie; those trees come from "Cycledoggs" tree & terrain mods -> search him on the STex..

[Gozer_Jep 0]

wow, ho realistic!! I was in the little village on the picture last februari(It's cald Osterwald). It's incredible how realistic even such a small village is! 

Sauerland is a beautiful region, and i'm happy that it's being recreated.

i've got one question: where can i find those dark-green, high trees?

Keep up the great work!

[gabry85 2]

That's amazing! I love that river, very realistic, like everything else! Wonderful work!

[ianpaschal 77]

Wow! This is amazing. I visited a friend in southern germany this summer and its just like how I remember it! Very nice work!

[MTLT_17 26]

So when can I buy a ticket to go visit? WOW this is truly a masterpiece!!! I mean I know SC4 is just a platform, but WOW what a platform. It is truly nice to see what some of us can do with the tools and modifications that have come to light in the past few years.

Great stuff man. I am absolutely emmersed in the beauty of the region. Keep up the amazing work.

By the way you need another Trixie!!!

Man, I want to see more when will you build the atoubahn? ^^, (perhaps there is no autobahn in this area?)

[E.J.C 9]

SIEDLINGHAUSEN <-> SILBACH

Today a small update. I'll highlight the road between the two vilages mentioned in the post-title..

Housing and warehousing are mixed together on this road..

Just west of the main road, hidden in the forest.. Is a "bergsee" (mountainlake)

The ingame version made by me.. Plopable water and some rock surfaces!

Next update, to end the month a nice update on the surroundings of "Silbach" and "Siedlinghausen"

@ bernie; there is an autobahn in the area.. just north of where I've developed it now. Between the towns "Arnsberg", "Meschede" and "Bigge" is a highway. That will come later..

[bobinator 0]

Amazing stuff! You have captured the 'feel' for these areas so well! It reminds me of a little town I stayed at in Austria a couple years ago... (not exactly the same location as your cj but same type of area. I'm going to Germany and Austria again this summer, I can't wait.

[luker91 0]

[jacqulina 162]
