I guess you should talk to @reddonquixote about this. He has already finished several buildings of low Manhattan, so you both could coordinate to avoid duplicates.

And, of course, if such coordination happens, it would be nice to invite people from the NYBT to come back to contribute too! There is a legacy to keep there...

I would love to contribute, to learn little by little to recreate something that I am passionate about as it is for my New York. If you are looking for someone for something, I would like you to meet me too. A hug friends!

Hi everybody!

The first GLR station pack is out!

Also I updated the my Heretic Essentials to v1.1. You have to redownload it to use with the GLR stations, also you have to delete the preverious (v1.0) version.

Heretic Essentials v1.1

Enjoy and have fun!

You know, I have no modelling skills at all, I'm just hinting at people who has done similar works before, to avoid redundancies.

i do some great works about control LM mods

check LOT>icon order.

for exampke:

4x4-i always build it-icon order:120100

3x2:120101

3x3:120102

3x4:120103

3x5:120104

3x6and more:120105

4x2:120106

4x3:120107

no 120108

4x5:120109

maybe i suggest creators give LM mods "consistency numbers"

I've been away a little while, but I've been very busy with my rendition of Vancouver.  I'm in the process of rebuilding nearly all of the DTQ Four tile (Downtown Quadrant, unfortunately my map of Vancouver split the Downtown Peninsula in four parts).

I've been mostly working on replacing the MP W2W buildings with @Jasoncw's beautiful Warwick rows which give the city a much cleaner look.  Those rows are then pockmarked with various mid and high rise buildings with heavy usage of @mattb325's modern infill lots, Maxis buildings, and historic structures.  The best part about this is that nearly all of these buildings are grown (and then made historic to ensure their permanence).  When I originally built this tile almost every structure was plopped so there was very little life.  The population was maybe 100,000 or so...the southern most portion of the tile has always been zoned and developed as suburbs.  But the central city was totally lifeless.  All the transit networks were unused and the roads and sidewalks were empty.  Today, this is no longer the case.  The population is a healthy 430,000 (with tons of room to grow) with roughly 75,000 of those riding trains, another 55,000 riding buses, about 90,000 pedestrians, and 120,000 cars.  The Broadway LRT and subway lines are averaging usage of about 130% or greater, nearly representing the actual transit mess that is the Broadway corridor in real life Vancouver.  The tile is rapidly approaching 3,000 sim years as well.  Here are some photos:

Tile overview.  You can see the older MP style rows on the outskirts with the new Warwick rows near and in the city center.  You can also make out the northern half of the new Kingsway (diagonal avenue).

Looks like the base of something very futuristic, like a small fusion reactor, a wormhole, or even a machine that creates small universes.

I wanted to do a mega region... so I decided on this map:

And then spent the past 2 months terraforming and planting forest... and finally its done:

The peninsula was not tree'ed as that is where the mega city will go.. planning on 10 million sims crammed onto that peninsula and a satellite of cities and bedroom communities feeding into it as well. The region will be called Wynchwood, theme is autumn. 

[Simmer2 23,831]

Thanks guys!

Here is yet another long awaited piece, grab it while it lasts

Question!

This image was generated from that region census program right?
I am using the Ring of Fire too but I get errors when I want to view it - region is too large
How did you do that?

Looks freaking amazing btw!

I used the 4GB patch on it. I also used Print Screen to pull the image out of Region Census as I could not get it to properly export the image. This could be eithier program error or GPU error. And thank you the comment !

Wonderful - I'll give that a 4GB patch a try on it. Good idea using screen capture rather than export too.

Thanks @redfox85!

We need to make a list of how many active players are using this mega-region just to see all differences in terraforming / planning styles!

Because I think the red roof houses next to each other are a little bit boring and for the  sake of friendliness, I am going to start a serie of ploppable blocks.

This is the result of a first try. Not to many props, because I’m afraid it is going to get overwhelmed, not to less, because it may get boring.

The back between the houses seems more English to me, but I couldn’t find an other prop that was narrow (hedge is to wide) and short.

I like the wooden fence, but if you look close, then you see the gates are not corresponding with the gardens.

Plenty to do, so keep going.

Inspired by @That Retro Guy's communities in his Prepping my First Region topic, I'm creating a city made by mini communities

Each community has a central agricultural zone (and maybe some industries later), surrounded by residential and commercial zones. The communities will be connected each other by roads and avenues. Mass transit, like subways and even tram lines, are also in the plan.

After placing the layout, I started to play and develop the city a bit. It's not ready, so I can't show you it yet. But I can show you some of the developed communities.

Thank you!

Your relots are amazing!

One day I might use them for a strictly British/European city...

It looks very functional. I always like to see what the future might look like -- and what you're doing with it, visually. I understand the rationale behind the concept, --and I love that this future of yours in not a megalopolis, but smaller communities ; but I must confess it looks too taylorised for me, if you see what I mean -- industrialized, cookie-cutterized, griddified to the max, in short “Utopian“ in the dystopian sense. No fantasy, no place for nature per se, i.e. the unregulated and unexploited natural, chaotic, free world. It feels grim. Although I also understand too well how this might be the best we can hope for...

You make me want to play with tram at last -- I was never really tempted before... 

But now we're gonna need some snazzier version of tram CARS. The current little lego-like versions are not very inspiring. Perhaps we could ask @Goldman Sachs ?

I mean, come on !

You should check out the packs by Vester, many different liveries and the models are great too, plenty of choice .
