    Mayor Tim now this is too cool. Kinda what I was talking about in the Philly thread in regard to what I was saying about realism. I like the map alot and the evolving deleopment is what I like to see.

    I hope to make 2 updates today. I did a little more and completly re-did the Airport. Here are some pics.
     
    The first pic is a transportation map of Verona and my airport. If you look carefully you can see what  I added today.
    /idealbb/files/p124.jpg

    Next up is a normal region view pic of the same area. It is blown up so you should be able to see some detail.

     /idealbb/files/p220.jpg

     

    And fininally a pic of Spire Park; one of the newest and largest parks in Verona. It was built around The Verona Needle after a construction accident toppled several nearby buildings.

    The fountains are a custom lot that I will post later today on the LEX. The rest of that area is just grass with every type of tree on it. Then of course the Verona Needle (it is a landmark if you didn't know) Is next to the convention center.
     
    Also, The airport sign is from the airport tram. I just know noticed that the airport sign was not over my main airport, and will fix it later.

They load fine but then when it says that the upload worked and click to close I  close it and nothing happens!<ahttps://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/images/smilies/7.gif>/idealbb/files/p66.jpg

     

     P.S. This was the only one out of 8 that worked.

    This is a great region! I like how the main city is built along the shore. The parks are great!

    Mayor Tim,
    Greetings from the Mayor of Timopolis! 1.gif
     
    These are great cities.  The layouts look just right.  The ratio of parks to development is nice.
     
    I'm curious about road layouts and such.  Does this create any kind of budget problems for you, or do the zones fill quickly enough to recover?
     
    Beautiful stuff, from another Mayor Tim.

    Well, I really can't answer that because I use both mods and cheats. I like sandbox style play. I use the super demand ordinance as well as a couple of cheats For the moment I use the power cheat untill I make my huge power plant. (will provide power for 3 cities). Now don't everyone bash me for playing for asthetics instead of function!

    Would not bash you for playing sandbox-style.  Once upon a time, I was a no cheat snob, but I'm beginning to see the virtue of each style of play:  one to face the challenges of budget constraints forcing a pace to growth, and another to test the zoning/traffic/aesthetic/whatever-else theories that you might have.  It does look great.

    Sorry for not updating. This month don't expect very frequent updates. I don't have much right now, since my other pic didn't turn out right. Here is an up-to-date region map.

I am just about done with Verona, and the suberbs have all ready made it into my airport city, Rimini.

    Tim your region is great but post some more close ups to show your hard work.. 2.gif Also try and expand a bit more on the islands to the north they create an awsome possibilty for good spans of bridges as well as the use of under ground tunnels and such 2.gif
     
    Also take a look at my region and post some ideas....
