The 133% scale in the sims doesn't look too bad after all.

I will do a test with more complex characters.

Mhmmm 

Being so small, it is difficult for me to recognize whether is a woman or a man...

It only took me 4 days (I'm unemployed and have the time, so I mean that literally) to get juuuuust right, but it's finally done. I threw in a couple of extras for giggles: some random config.bmp files (thanks to @rivit and @CorinaMarie's awesome work on the Random Config Generator, a map showing how the game map maps over a map of the QC metro area, and two historical maps I thought were cool.

If you do something like this I will release my water mod ahead of time.

Where is that? I'll add it to the list! I'm working on the fantasy map of the Orange County coast now.

Elba! I'm on it! It'll easily fit in a region.

[Barroco Hispano 26,936]

@tagehringThis is how it should look but unfortunately I lost the region when I formatted my pc

@Goldman Sachs

Is that a new tree mod, one not found in either of the big two sites (Simtropolis STEX or SC4Devotion LEX), a custom modification of an existing tree mod, or pain-stakingly elaborate MMP work? I would absolutely love to use that one!

Madness!

[Lucario Boricua 7,052]

My best guess would have been a modification of the HBS California flora mod to add a few more different mediterranean trees and substitution of the fan palms for coconut palms.

I am trying to create decals but I get some graphic errors

When I fix those problems I will create more complex alpha textures to create something like this:

 

[tagehring 321]

This is how Elba scales at 1:1 to a 28x40 region. When I get it in SC4Mapper I'll probably remove all of the empty sea tiles to save space. This one will be relatively easy, since it doesn't need rotation or waterways added in.

Are these MMP decals or ploppable decals?

[Barroco Hispano 26,936]

@The British Sausage Poppable but it's quite easy to make them MMP

[Barroco Hispano 26,936]

If any of you is good at creating alpha textures just send them to me and I will export them to the game.

This is what an alpha texture looks like

[tagehring 321]

Am I overdoing it on the shallows, @Goldman Sachs?

[Barroco Hispano 26,936]

@tagehring Yes, make it a little deeper. 

Maybe one or two meters deeper.

[tagehring 321]

Here ya go, @Goldman Sachs! Can't wait to see what you do with it. 

 

[Barroco Hispano 26,936]

@tagehring I am in love with your maps!

this and M&T are now done.

Synagoge 4x4

I fixed the blue color:

The synagogue Glogau (now Polish Głogów). 1892-1934 Set fire to the Nazis in 1934 and destroyed

Landmark 4x4.

The other buildings are just a demonstration of how the synagogue was inserted in the streetscape.
It's not the original building either.

You're making me reconsider changing my water mod to something a little more tropical. Although it wouldn't go well with the seasonal tree controller I use. :\

[Barroco Hispano 26,936]

@tagehring I plan to make a "non-tropical" version.

I AM HERE FOR IT. 

My "aesthetic" with regions is a combination of American coastal styles approximating where I grew up on the Chesapeake Bay. I use the Cascadia seasonal tree controller with the Sudden Valley terrain mod and Cape Cod Bay water mod. With the exception of the one Quebec City shot, these are from my current WIP, Cape Orange or are photos of the areas I'm trying to emulate on the Virginia coast.

I would love to have a water mod that shows such beautiful shallows in places less than 15 meters below sea level. I usually put the "bed" of marinas at 235.5m with the "bed" at 220.5m in other coastal areas, since those are 15 and 30 meters below 250.5, which is ideal for marinas and seaports. It makes creating land/seabed easier using the terrrain raiser/lower tools that come with NAM. I've had a hell of a time trying to adjust the water transparency values in my terrain mod to get this right.

[Barroco Hispano 26,936]

@tagehring I did this with the terraformer tools

Before:

After:

It's so complicated to get a good result with my water mod that I don't even know if I'll release it.
