An update with the Nice International Terminal

It is in game and the main terminal lot done. Some close ups first....

The idea is to ensure that it can co-exist with the modular airport runway packs available on the exchanges (ignore the missing ground textures, I am showing this in a very pared-back plugins file):

....so that end, I'll be making another couple of modular pieces that join the airport up to the modular runway more seamlessly, as well as (hopefully) being able to use the diagonal area to link in with the diagonal runway project

This is just... WOW.... It looks amazing

Wow!!!

To me, this terminal means the beginning of a new time to airport modeling to simcity4.

In my opinion the older modular projects were underscaled and i was not too satisfied with them, but it does not mean that they were not great works.

Do you remember WolfZe? He modeled a good scaled Hamburg Terminal but it has not nighlights.

I would like to model some modular pieces to fit with matt's terminal but i don't have the modeling technique accuracy that matt has. But i'm gonna try

Anyway, thanks @mattb325 for your work and motivation to keep playing with simcity4

I'm trying my best to make my words succinct and simple, Peeps here are too warm.

Hiya @mitsos, Very glad to see @Barroco Hispano's splendid work in your CJ, Just a bit picky and no offence, I just thought that spot is too clean and neat,  I used to imagine this scene below when modeling those statues though I have never been to Greece.

How about let it stands in ruins of cliff which is adjacent to sea,  Anyway, it's just a view from a CJ Newbie.

@BartonThinks, Hiya Barton, they are perfect!  You won't mind a Newbie's eyes, right? I just thought those bule circle bed were UFOs at first glance, Anyway, I have left some tiles of my Region for them.

Hiya @AP, That wind farm is so nice! it was just quite a coincidence that i'm going to release some as well, however I couldn't make such lovely little guys, Genius Work!

Hiya @Simmer2, I'm pretty sure that your works were different style when I first came to here 1.5 year ago. Am i the only one who thought they are kind of retro and german now?  Classic and Great works!!

@mattb325 Oh my Lord, You never cease to amaze Mattster. Now I even have to built another city for your BATs, I hate to miss anyone.

Well… no more Hi, Ray has came back, My friends.

Yours Sincerely,

-- Raymond

[mitsos 12,969]

Glad to have you back Raymond7cn.   The majority of the the pictures that i upload here is draft of the final work. But you are right. Well that's the actual Barroco Hispano's work fitted in my city, which is still under consideration.

Yo, guy --

I think you did quite well with Barroco's ruins.  

Temples were an integral part a people's culture and often found at the heart of ancient cities, so finding these remains within a modern city would seem to be quite normal.  I especially like what you did with the remnants of stone dwelling foundations on the other side of the park.  VERY nice touch!

Love the details in the lotting ! Where did you find your props ? (white chairs and tables and esp. the small greenhouses)

With @mattb325 closing in on this masterpiece, I may be forced to release some diagonal jetways and planes sooner rather than later!

Wow. Just... WOW. Double wow punch with Mattb325's take on it, indeed. (and you mean we'll all get this at some point ???!!!??? Woooooooow.)

The first of a set of jetway props has been released!   This set includes a 45 degree diagonal jetway, a 90 degree jetway and a 90 degree-45 degree  jetway.

Really good factory building. I've seen these all over New Jersey.

All it needs is a few trucks and a bunch of workers outside buying hero sandwiches from a "roach coach" and you're all set!

This is an excellent preserved Roman ruin.

Be it ever so crumbly

There's no place like Rome

Nero he was the Emperor

And the Palace was his home

But he loved to play with matches

And for a fire yearned

So he set Rome a-sizzle

And he fiddled while it burned!

An incredible airport, down to the airline symbols.

Ah, Delta. The official airline of Walt Disney World. When you think Mickey Mouse...think Delta!

Thanks for the comments re: the airport, guys. @AP: yes, I should definitely use the little airport dudes.

As I understand a lot of folks don't necessarily want a big old war memorial in their cities, I have released the reflection pool from the Anzac war memorial as a separate plaza lot

...available, here:

Working on some props as well, it's turning out to be real garbage...

This looks great in-game! The rusting pattern on the siding in particular really shines (or, you know, the opposite of shines) on this one.

[BartonThinks 3,416]

I decided the best way to fix the slope issues with the bungalow lots was to set it so that the main set of lots will only grow on flat ground and minor slopes, then create a smaller, separate set of lots that only grows on slopes.

To get enough variety with the slope-friendly fences (along with Simmer2's wooden fences), I grabbed some WMP fence props and modded them with new exemplars so that they'll function properly on these lots (there seems to be a problem with the occupancy size of the original props when they're placed near the edge of a lot).

So far, I've made four slope-friendly 1x2 lots. Three of them are pictured below.

When I was asked for some height variations on apartments that I showed recently, it got me thinking about all of the folks who rely on batters for new content and how they are basically at the whim of those batters....and it prompted me to test something out, which didn't turn out too shabby.

Modular, D.I.Y. skyscrapers.

It's something that I don't believe has been done before.

I made 3 separate building pieces of a fictional, international style skyscraper: a 5-floor base, a 5-floor middle and a 5-floor top piece...all shown here in an expanded form in the lot editor.

From these three pieces, a user can assemble their own skyscraper: feasibly anywhere from 10 floors to 100+ floors. The height variation is achieved by stacking multiple middle sections together. So the above picture becomes these:

Now of course, because it uses just three pieces, one of which is repeated ad infinitum, there will be repetition and it isn't absolutely seamless - but do remember some of the misalignment you see in the pictures is due to the way SC4 chops up images and displays them and this phenomenon also happens on regular buildings -  but if people like this sort of thing, I can  translate it to other types of skyscrapers rather than the bland, ubiquitous, internationalist style box.....
