No offense, but I loved the building but wasn't too crazy about the lot, especially the "old school" parking. Americanized-

Hi everyone

Fresh update from my WIP Minneapolis/Milwaukee/Chicago region. Still some blank spaces/zones waiting to be filled!

@canadiansim Beautiful! Would you consider opening a CJ to show us more of your work?

Quick question to everyone since I will be posting some stuff here in the future:

What would you say is too big a size for a props pack? I currently have a prop pack almost ready to be uploaded, but it's already 70Mb big, is it too much? Should I split it? It isn't datpacked so that people can chose what to keep or not.

I think currently the largest prop packs are around up to 60-70 MB, not counting Angry Mozart's freight rail car prop pack.

It depends on what you are putting into the pack. If they were larger building models, like the CAM supporting model packs on LEX, I would split it into comfortable 3-4 building per pack. If they were small props then I would keep them together. But again if it was containing thematically matching prop groups then it could be split up by themes.

If you were about to DatPack it, please use the J-Datpacker (Java based) instead of the Datpacker 2008.

Otherwise I am eager to see what goodies you will come up with.

sounds awesome and yes it would be good to not dat pack that many files so we can maybe sort them into files of our own    very happy to hear you are still producing new content for this game

I am personally inclined to smaller MB downloads --

And I do NOT favor datpacks --

But that's just me...

Sat down to play SimCity 4 for the first time in a while, rather than loading it up to take screenshots. Developing the suburbs towards the outer limits of Nashlorn. And then playing around with some photo effects for another.

Double tracking and adding a new replacement station

[TheMurderousCricket 5,117]

I hope some missed me. 

I am pleased to report that my lap top has received a new CPU fan and it seems to be running well now.  As a result, I have resumed work on my cities and thought I'll show you what I shall work on in the coming days.

 

As can be seen by the cargo ship, I am also running through the automata downloads section recently, looking for new vehicles to drive, sail or fly in my cities. Actually, I also segregate them into categories so that they don't all appear in all regions. 

Regarding the second picture, I think I will visit Simple Jack's / Cori's surface water shop to find some other artificial water body tiles. The ones here are by PEG (I guess?) but I can't help the feeling that they are a little too... "industrial"? Dirty? Still have to make up my mind.

Unfortunately, we have no military leaders with morals. If they had any, they'd be aiming the guns the other way.

I just wish the US would quite pussy-footing around and get some main battle tanks to Ukraine.  The only way to solve that problem is a mobile envelopment -- then see how long it takes for them to surrender !!

I wish people got factual info before calling for more carnage. Just sayin', my friend. And Simtropolis isn't the place for politics, in any case.

After completing the shop fronts, I'm now making the shop buildings to go with them. These are the ones I've modelled so far:
