Another quick update at Queen Elizabeth Park:

Observatory and new restaurant.  The new path that leads down the hill to 29th Street can be seen here too.

New pathway from the Observatory to 29th Street.

The southern half of the park will consist of a new championship tennis complex.  So if anyone knows where I can find this tennis stadium please let me know.  I've been searching high and low and can't find it anywhere.

Thanks!

Very nice!

 

Here's what I'm working on for my city journal:

[Kieren Barnett 76]

I was working in Clearo Heights, specifically on the 'French Corner', just off of downtown, and all these red roofed buildings popped up, just perfectly how I imagined it.

Another update at Queen Elizabeth Park in Vancouver.  The northern half of the park is largely complete.  There are now pathways down from the observatory, restaurant, and hotel in all directions but the south.  The southern half will remain undeveloped until I can locate the tennis stadium I've been looking for, still no luck there.

 

Cambie Street is also seeing some significant changes as it will become one of Vancouver's premier streets.  In this photo you can see the northern chunk of Queen Elizabeth Park and the new commercial node around Cambie and 25th Street.  The Cambie LRT ends at 25th where we have constructed a new underground station.

The intersection has been converted to a roundabout and surrounded by new commercial buildings.  I also re-lotted one of the avenue roundabout subway stations to add @Jasoncw's Roosevelt Circle monument as a prop.  I think the monument matches the Art Deco style of the observatory nicely.  The station is accessed through an elevator in the tower.  It is fully functional and sees around 6,000 passengers per day.

Thanks!

oh YES !!!!

[matias93 7,535]

Deliciously tropical textures!!

You know, the only things left are a terrain mod (even if that one works well) and a tree controller (I've been tempted to try one with Flunight's fantastic brazilian trees, but the fact that they are HD and it would blow away my computer has stopped me)

Emerald Ville development 01 !

As developing Emerald Ville South I over looked agricultural development ! Industrial area developing I plopped the VW plant. Realising that agriculture need to be done first I added all zone´s. Waiting, waiting, waiting, I learned another important lesson about jobs ! Nothing happend, untill I realisezed the VW was taking it´s share so, by reducing industrial estates I managed to recover about 3/4 of agricultural development, very good ! What left I may have to give a other purpose or plop every tile manualy !

This part worked out fine, allthought industry still have to recover !

This part may have a different destination like a airfield, perhaps ?

Enjoy !

[matias93 7,535]

beautiful!!!

In any case, a reminder: all texture mods are compatible with other texture mods of the same definition, so your rock mod doesn't need specifically Sudden Valley to work as intended, any HD terrain mod is enough.

My thoughts exactly!  Stunning work, just wondering if my laptop can handle it.

Guys: can you see the difference?

Clearly! I personally prefer the smaller (left) version for the grass, but the bigger one for the sand.

[Handyman 791]

There is a clear difference. I would have to pick the left side on both.

How can I fix the bridge bug?

Yes. And I'd go with matias93 on that one. Grass on the left, beach on the right. The grass texture on the right is too hay-like.

That is really odd ... first question, as its a maxis bridge, have you tried drawing it with no other plugins to eliminate a conflict ?

Sure thing! I'm with the others, btw.

Now for something else: I really hate to be kind of a party pooper, but doesn't that wavy pattern on the sand result from water and only exist in the "wet" zone that's constantly affected by waves breaking on it and running down again? Wouldn't the dry sand further up be smoothed by the wind?

I have no idea about the technical possibilites and limitations, but it would be ideal if we could have the wavy structure only in the surf zone, with smooth sand further up.

These considerations aside, it's refreshing to see a Simtropolitan tackle terrain textures once again, and your work so far has been absoluely beautiful! I can't wait to see what else you'll come up with. Thank you for using your exceptional talent and work to share it with us. It's much appreciated.
