The mission to make the region's capital a mega city continues. With that said, I do have areas where I don't plan for any skyscrapers to be.

There will be 2 versions......and even the one with the roof is designed to show trains without clipping. You can clearly see the automata cross the lot  There is also a path pic showing its functionality. Again, these pics are showing a low res model. Once completed I will render both in full HD glory!

Ok, now it's completely perfect, I'm sold on it!

Couple shots of a partially updated Stadium District.  Thought about changing the textures over to match the red bricks I used in the Government District but decided to keep the original.  I did update street lights, trees, landscaping, tables and chairs, and other props to bring them in line with the props I used in the Government District and other recent re-lots I've done.  The large stadium lot still needs to be re-lotted.

Also, has anyone noticed images disappearing on older posts?  I haven't visited this page in awhile and notice the images in many of my older posts (and other users) are gone.

Thanks!

Yup I noticed. There is a workaround, use the attachment option available instead of html links.

Its working for me....so far.

Interesting.  They were showing when I posted them this morning.  I used to use the manual attachments but eventually that space fills up and becomes unusable.  @CorinaMarie, idk that you’d be the right mod for this but you walked me through the attachment thing before.  Is there a problem with Imgur on here now?  I’d rather not use up my attachment space and I was informed by many here that Imgur was the best option for posting photos.  On top of that I’ve noticed the performance of Simtropolis lately has left a lot to be desired.  Maybe some internal updates are happening?

@nos.17 got the thread linky posted before me, but yes, imgur is blocking hotlinked photos from ST.

For using the attachment option there is a linky when creating a post called Choose Files... and once selected those will show below the post while you are creating it. Then in the message body click the cursor where you want one to show and then click the relevant image. It'll pop into place. I then immediately press the <enter> key twice to position what I'll type next. Note: It's best to use compressed .jpg format to have the smallest file size possible which eats up less of the attachment size allotment.

For the site slowdown a couple days ago, yes this was due to some site updating and some bugs which occurred. Dirk has rolled that back and we should be back to normal speed now.

Yo, guys --

I have been using IMGUR --

The pics I posted on 13 April are still displaying.  Perhaps it's because I use the forum code links -- yes ??  No ??

Indeed they are, and I can confirm some very good news...

As I've just announced here and it sounds like you've already discovered, Imgur has overturned the block on Simtropolis after a successful appeal. So this means Imgur posted images inside this thread or anywhere on the site (including CJs) will now show again as they did previously.

[Simmer2 23,831]

Thank you everyone for the likes and replies!

You guys think a sunken GLR version would have any use? Check it out.
Oh and this model in in full HD glory plus night lights...
You can actually see the automata entering and exiting the lot. Gotta love transparencies...

@Simmer2 beautiful!!! Most certainly it will be used, I would even say that even more than the rail version, as GLR is much more flexible for tunnelling it (as subway), so is easier to make a full line with only tunnels and trenches.

Still, a 7.5 deep version would be a nice extra with a lot of uses too...

New 6-lane highway built on a cliff to bypass a busy coastal 2-lane road.

Terminus

[tariely 4,499]

Did a few plazas to relax after slaving on a new city. For instance :

Also, redid my Astor Plaza to make it more, ah, subdued :

And of course they are lit, but it goes without saying (and showing)

Urbanization, roads, highways, rail tracks ? Today I´v linked some video of you, sometime ago to find some greenery and some other questions, maybe raised ? Some weeks ago I downloaded your plugin folder; short detailed lots if present like parks or special custom lots are sacraviced for skyscrapers and basicly NAM absolute essentials and performnce ? SC4 gameplay hard mode strongly in he driection of vanilla gameplay or lack of time may justify a turn into this direction. Still I like what I see in turn of transport networks, wich are awesome, yet you clearly bring te message what your gameplay stand for city building first !

Stadium and Convention District re-lot is complete.  Still have some touching up to do, but most everything is in place.

 

Convention Center (I would pay money for someone to BAT me the actual Vancouver Convention Center lol):

 

An overview:

Thanks!

[tariely 4,499]

Wow. I want to go and do some laps/play a  tennis match (or see one) and do some heavy training ! (That big asymetrical sport arena is splendid, BTW. What is it ?)

[11241036 5,115]

This is a project I've been recently working on (although RL keeps me busy): A few months ago the Italian collection by simcity4ever88 has been restored by the moderators. After downloading and checking it, it turned out that it contains a good amount of great lots, but some of them are in need of re-lotting and especially re-modding, since some of them have no icons and thus cause SC4 to freeze if the player encounters them in the in-game menu. I'm talking about literally hundreds of lots, and there are also some that I don't like, so I just will relot some of them.

These are 2 pictures of a total of 29 churches, being part of the Italian collection. If there's enough interest, I'll share these relots. My goal was to make some decent lots while keeping the amount of dependencies low, give them a proper modding (along with proper descriptions and icons), and keep the amount of space they occupy (in-game) low to allow them to be combined with custom plaza lots.

 

This is the link to the Italian collection:

Wait...

You downloaded my plugins folder?

I have never distributed my plugin folder - where did you find this? It's a fake.

I believe it's called New Anfield.  Though I searched high and low for a link and can't seem to find it.

@Haljackey You are welcome anytime!  Though you may be slightly disappointed in the lack of freeways...

That is not my plugins file.

That is from Reddit User Forged_Fox.

I used that link as an example to support my case for more lax file sharing.

 

Hope this helps clear up some stuff!

OH.MY.LORDY.LORD. I just downloaded the collection. "Huge" doesn't even begin to describe it. And all the lots have their pic ! (I assume ; I didn't check past the letter G.) This was a labour of Megalove. Good luck with your endeavour ! I, for one, will wait your relots with much interest (at some point I will no doubt try some myself ! ).
