<p>Years ago I'd started work on Myrtuel City. I think I even tried to start a journal here about it. But then I got interested in what was happening in Paragon City and I spent most of my gaming time playing City of Heroes.</p><br /><p>Then there was a sudden announcement a few weeks ago that the game was going to abruptly end. It was too depressing to log in there anymore. But I didn't wanna just not play anything. I remembered that I was once building a city. I re-installed Sim City 4 and recovered my old plugins and save files, and loaded up the game. I had a new CPU, motherboard and RAM now, so the game loaded up a lot faster. There was Myrtuel City, just as I had left it. It was time to go back and finish what I had started!<p><br /><p><a href="http://ic.pics.livejournal.com/coyoteseven/537318/81789/81789_original.png"><img src="http://ic.pics.livejournal.com/coyoteseven/537318/81789/81789_600.png"></a><br /></p><p><a href="http://ic.pics.livejournal.com/coyoteseven/537318/74806/74806_original.png"><img src="http://ic.pics.livejournal.com/coyoteseven/537318/74806/74806_600.png"></a><br /></p><p><a href="http://ic.pics.livejournal.com/coyoteseven/537318/76241/76241_original.png"><img src="http://ic.pics.livejournal.com/coyoteseven/537318/76241/76241_600.png"></a><br /></p><p>So this is what I've been doing for the past two weeks. I'm attempting to make almost all the commercial buildings in that downtown area unique, along with a lot of other tweaks. And this is just the south end of the city. The north end is virtually untouched as yet; just lots of empty land.</p><br /><p>I have to do something with the highways. The sunken highways look great as-is, but the raised highways look kinda dumb. I might have to go in and bulldoze all the raised highway (and the bridges, which I remember being a PITA to get in right, ungh!), and use raised land with ground level highway. That ought to be a project in and of itself! So I will likely hold off on doing that until the entire south side of the city is otherwise complete.</p>

Actually I should probably show the part of this city that I've been focusing on the most in the past few days...

That Dr. Vu Industry building was a bit of a pain to get in right. Also I discovered that I could not properly query it in order to make it historical. It took me a bit of digging but it turned out there was a third "BSC Essentials" file that had been made between the time I stopped work on this city and now. Downloading that, and going in and picking out the smaller plugins it replaced, did the trick! Yay!

I would love to be able to do that with my cities, but I'm having a lot of difficulty getting the downloads to work. I did something that updated my game and restarted the vehicle driving games (made me do a aircraft training mission, etc). Can someone give me a Tutorial or something on SC4 downloads?

I'm working on this...

It's the Berlin Region

My world:

The capital is named Hamptons and it is some small towns around the capital.

This is my most recent project, a marina development with resorts and luxury residentials, planned for about 40K upper and upper middle class sims:

[SparkleMagic91 23]

I've updated the city and surrounding region a bit. I might make this into a CJ if I have some time.

[Terring 6,476]

I'm going to build this in Simcity!

[Afronaut 1]

I'm going to build this in Simcity!

Haha are you a fellow RBE supporter ?

I think I will try my hand in recreating that as well.

[Terring 6,476]

Haha are you a fellow RBE supporter ?

Yes I am

[Plastic Manc 28]

This is something I'm trying out, very much in its infancy.

I'm trying to make some nice looking suburbs in my own way

[Andrey km 304]

I'm trying to do a realistic airport, but i don't know if i'm doing this right. =/

[The Pennsylvania Turnpike 252]

I'm working on the republic of parkland. Here's what i'm up to

[Andrey km 304]

[ROFLyoshi 1,760]

Woah! That looks great!

I

’ve built up the railway junction a little more. Due to 3 highways and 2 major roads intersecting here, it is desirable for commercial activity.

[hotChocolate 95]

If you mind the incompleteness... I'll make a CJ out of it soon. Well, at least I hope it is soon...

[Shortsonfire 67]

Wow, are those ploppables? How do you grow a city with such...preciseness?

This is what I'm working on. I'm trying to get the entire interstate done first so I know what to build around. That way I also don't have to worry about taking too much space and having to delete stuff later down the road. Heres the layout I wish to go with as well as a couple of the interchanges that I will be using though I'm missing the two complicated ones. I couldn't figure out how to get the whole region in the shot, so I just went with the area I've actually touched. I also need to edit the east and west beaches of Concord. I'm not sure how that happened.

If anyone knows how to get onramp/offramps for RHW6 and RHW8 at diagonals I'd love to know!

[hotChocolate 95]

Wow, are those ploppables? How do you grow a city with such...preciseness?

Hehe, yeah, they're mostly ploppables. I managed to sneak those who aren't in by using the buildingplop cheat. Yeah, I'm a cheaty-faced bastard. But I guess the fact that there's an almost entirely handgrown city in the same region redeems it a bit.

Here are some pics of the region that I am working on's first city. Its eventually just going to be a suburb of Queenschurch, which will be a metropolitan centre without further ado here are the pics.

Region View

The Industrial Quarter (Will be high tech in the end)

Note the awkward diamond interchange.

Clean power ftw.

Just some regular urban spawl.

The beach area. I am quite pleased with the way this turned out.

Downtown.

And the unfinished waterfront area.

There's still quite a bit of work to do but overall I think its turning out nicely.

Pagenotfound: That's a really beautiful region man good luck

[hotChocolate 95]

That's a great region!

On the click for full resolution thing, my guess is that you upload a lower-sized image and click hyperlink with it selected, linking it to the full-size picture.

@jack3oh3: You've got an spectacular photoedited water here!

[Higu 52]

Just some industry..

[jacksunny 741]

That's an awesome region 404, I hope you release it when you're finished

Nice picture Higu. It looks very realistic.
