Hi there!

It doesn't look very realistic when you build anywhere near water in simcity (when building a major city). You get slopping grass that ends in a beach but this isn't what you see in cities, I'm looking for waterfronts! Any ideas? I would like it to look something along these lines:

i.e. almost flat!

Thanks!

P.S move if i posted this in wrong section! sorry!

This is exactly what I'm looking for too! I have downloaded seawalls but they just don't look the same! 15.gif

If you want flat waterfronts and regular, straight coastlines, you should try and have a look at this tutorial from simpeg.com (linkie) At that site you can also find A LOT of water front lots. Or you can just search for "pegasus" here at the stex.

Cheers!

As other people already mentioned; look for simpeg waterfronts. Pedestrian tiles from the NAM strangely enough can be build underwater too, and some of them look very appropriate for waterfronts.

I would like to see a canal set that has a very low wall, so it looks like there's only 3 feet of (sea) wall space between street level and the water...
