You all know the genre, but this time with a natural twist, which the title pretty much outlines. I might as well start with this nice view of a bridge going over a steep-sided crater:

It's kind of interesting seeing as on the other side of that tunnel is a major industrial area:

You don't have to post any ironies if you don't want to (or if you don't know what an irony is), all I want is beautiful pics! The only thing I ask is to keep your more urban pictures to a minimum, as the concept here IS a more rural/rugged setting.

Irony. Ah yes, my favourite of the many humorae. Well i think that's a very nice bridge. I love the way you made it start and end with a tunnel. I see you didn't use any mods for that too. Well i know iv'e earnt the reputation of Mr No Images but i will tell you about my most scenic area. In my latest region of Krillik there is a little place i likes to call East Krillik. It's a mainly agricultural and residential town with a pop of about a thousand. It is situated on a smooth but curved coastline. theres a nice scenic railway too. remember in 2000 where there was a nice city with a scenic railroad in scenarios?

    Indeed. I learned the formal definition of irony this past week in English class 39.gif
     
    And yes, in fact I do remember such a city in SC2K, Happyland, wasn't it?

    hm... How do I install it anyway? I can't read the japanese readme.txt file. I just copied all the files into the Plugins folder, but that didnt' seem to have any effect. Should I just choose one of the files, or what? I see some are .SC4Model, some are .SC4Desc, and one .SC4Lot.

    doesn't work... I got the NAM, Pathfinder mod, hole digging lots, and I added all of those in a folder inside Plugins, and I alos tried to put them directly in the plugins.

    I see nothing new in my menus, I cycled through all the ramps I could find, etc...

    Where is it located? Is there anything I forgot?

    Mr. Bisomn, that ancient shipwreck looked really good... did you find that somewhere, or is that one of yours?  I REALLY like it!

     
    Good work, I've always admired your CJ.  It fits right along with the show us your scenic areas thread!
