The building is stunning! And then I notice the shoji, the grass, the trees, the stone wall, the barrels...

I left a haha emoji because I'm laughing at how good this is!!

Yo, guy --

I tried to send this earlier -- but the site went down and the entry didn't post......

This terrain is REALLY good stuff.  I've been looking at it, but never really noticed it.  Detailed -- irregular levels -- extremely realistic -- non-repetitive -- and great ground cover !!

And I like the color !!  Fantastic stuff --

Any specific lots I could check out for inspiration?

Great idea! Unfortunately the stairs in the front are part of the model, so finding the space for benches will be tricky. The church is now centered, but moving it to the side might free up some space. Decisions, decisions...

u can place the benches on the sides of the church. they don't have to be at the front. I do that with Banished. place for the parents to sit as children play in the grass while others arrive.

Yo, guys --

As we get closer and closer to publication of the NEW "CJ" -- "IMPERIAL DOCKYARDS: CUXHAVEN" -- I would like some feedback from all of you to help me make a decision.

I already have one "CJ" -- "IMPERIAL DOCKYARDS: WILHELMSHAVEN" -- with 22 entries......

 

Should I simply add more entries to the old "CJ" ?? 

Or should I open an entirely NEW "CJ" -- "IMPERIAL DOCKYARDS: CUXHAVEN" -- ??

PLEASE let me know what you think -- I'm not at all sure it would make sense to simply tack it onto the old one.

I'll see your CJ and I'll leave you my comment if I think it relevant to do so.

I say add it into the old pack! I like having as much content as possible in one mod as long as it's all high quality.

[Edit: nvm, I missed you were talking about a city journal, I thought you were asking for input on a mod pack]

This water texture is beautiful, which one is it?

Indeed, in my eyes, there is a difference between this next entry and those of your CJ. Your next entry (assuming the one you posted) looks like a previous story period for your CJs (unconcreted stone/grass dock, more basic warships (pardon my lack of culture to refer to this type of ship) , ...Unless it was a replenishment supply ship?... So!...Same time but different place and even maybe other naval functions at this time in history? ... Would he like to let us know what was the role of naval logistics at that time?

If your idea for your next CJ is to present another era or another contribution of the navy other than the naval offensive, I think a new journal would be more appropriate.

Yo, guy --

That is the "PEG" Brigantine water MOD.  It takes a bit of getting used to -- but produces some excellent, subtle, differences.

I haven't been playing SimCity 4 for a while now –which is also the reason for the lack of updates in my CJ, apologies for that!– but I decided to reopen it and work a bit on Bahía Medusa, the city currently being showcased in my region.

The transit in BM is a bit of a mess: there's a lot of subway lines, but the last mile connections seem deficient, with bus stops haphazardly placed in small streets while the avenues are underutilised. I decided to relocate some bus stops to these avenues, away from the streets, in order to better balance things out.

But there's one big issue: the main transit hubs are also not well located. Case in point: this lovely Spitalfields station, built right in the middle of the main boulevard of the city.

The hub is really well located… if you travel by car. But getting there by foot seems impossible, and it only really serves the bus lines running alongside the boulevard –which already has a tram line in or under it, so what's the point? There's a large diagonal avenue to the south where bus lines should get rerouted (see above), so it would be in our best interests to build steady connections to this avenue, plus increasing pedestrian connectivity.

Demolitions begin. I love underground rail so, so much – it's a shame to see it's been all but deprecated.

Now it's time to make a pedestrian connection to the south avenue… except there's no pedmall under monorail? I was so sure there was at least a puzzle piece! Oh, well. Let's just get a reasonable bus connection going and call it a day.

Except, wait! The station is always to the left of the street. Sims are lovely darlings who use it anyway, but this won't do. Time to flip the streets around it!

And here's the end result. It's a bit spaghetti-ish, arguably, but I got rid of one at-level crossing, made simpler connections to the southern avenue and enabled routes to go around the station without it being too complicated or funneling all traffic in both directions through a single, two-lane road. This should encourage more people to use buses. Now it's time to unpause simulation and see how things turned out!

Up yours, SC4.

Chicos --

A medida que nos acercamos mas y más a la publicación del NUEVO "CJ" -- "IMPERIAL DOCKYARDS: CUXHAVEN" -- me gustaría recibir comentarios de todos ustedes para ayudarme a tomar una decisión.

Ya tengo un "CJ" -- "IMPERIAL DOCKYARDS: WILHELMSHAVEN" -- con 22 entradas...

 

¿Debería simplemente agregar más entradas al antiguo "CJ"? 

¿O debería abrir un "CJ" completamente NUEVO -- "IMPERIAL DOCKYARDS: CUXHAVEN" -- ??

POR FAVOR, hágame saber lo que piensa : no estoy del todo seguro de que tenga sentido simplemente agregarlo al anterior.

Dreadnought. I am looking forward to reading your new entry to the city journal. I think it should be in your diary. Greetings.
