Final version

Making a fence exported with 3dsmax look good in-game is very complicated. I did what I could. 

ships requests for @Dreadnought City Journal 

(etc.)

 

 

 

ALL those ships ??? We're gonna get them too ? OOOOOOOH ! (fainting.)

Unfortunately not in the medium term

So, this is almost finished [98%]. There will be two different lots. One a regular non-water lot [this one] and the other for canals/waterfront. This one will be  a regular lot and will be TE'd for rail and truck. The other will be ready after I finish all the waterfront type props. I also need to figure out a light blocker to get rid of the light line on the silo, it's annoying.

Working on a way for people to view my region. You can try it here but it will take a moment to load

You can click on each city tile to see stats. You can also switch to transport view. Example:

First completed portion of a vaguely San Diego-inspired city with port and navy base. This area still requires some additional detail in the future, and I still need to build the actual city part where people live.

This building has a beautiful...industrial austerity! ;-) One or two bulbs with pale light under the canopies of the platforms??

@hugues aroux That's the other 2%.

Great harbour ! Downtown Sandiego Airpott another great harbour area. Last don't forget the local tram !

Working on an upgrade to my RCI DLL Query Mod, to incorporate @Null 45's latest DLL edits.  Now when you select a building, you can see what growth stage the building lot is.  The info is right above the "make historical" setting.  Also considering to expand or remove some of the extra space for the building style display, considering that there could be as many as 16+ styles.

This is a working version.  I'll upload it once I finish the Commercial Query and make sure there's no other issues:

EDIT: Swapped out the picture to show a better example of how the building styles might look.

haven't reopened BAT4Max in a while, ended up spending a few hours trying to do basic tasks, as usual. Eventually realized there's no point in making sure every vertex is positioned with 100% accuracy and you can just eyeball things. To be continued (maybe)

South Fring's Reliant Stadium. While I appreciate Sims will enjoy Sports and want somewhere to play them, I'm more interested in the music gigs that go on there.

Excellent. I play a region with the simulation with only the NAM, WWS and Vanilla buildings.

The excellent lot of @nos.17 made me want to do it.

I was also thinking of making a few of my own lots from the same buildings. Hopefully, I'll be able to see these superb lots in my area.

[Honolulu 2,780]

I had done a lot test with these same Vanilla buildings in a previous tile. It wasn't a growth lot at the time, but I was thinking of doing a similar one for the region I was talking about, but growing this time.

Beautiful, beautiful port! Very nice, congrats! May I suggest you something? Why don't you try downloading a water mod? Such a large, beautiful and realistic port deserves better than that maxis default non-textured water imo, a more realistic water mod would make the port look even better!

But ofc its your decision haha the port itself is amazing anyway!

Much appreciated, and I took your advice. May continue to experiment with that aspect.

I'm glad you found it helpful  Imo its already much better! And this zoom-out view is really good, nice infrastructure in this tile! As you said you were experimenting, I would suggest taking a look at this great catalogue made by @CorinaMarie:

I always suggest the ones made by Gobias if you can play with "hardware" render setting, but again, this is personal taste and I'm no one to enforce something to you haha

Thanks for the @mention.

Version 1.1 of the RCI DLL Query Upgrade has been released, with the following features:

 - Added a Building Lot Growth Stage indicator to show the Stage that the lot grows under for each of Residential, Commercial, and Industrial lots.
 - Expanded the room of the Building Style display, so it can show many more building styles available for a building.
 - Fixed some typos in the Residential Query to ensure there's enough space and make it consistent with the Commercial and Industrial Queries.  Now supports showing up to 999,999,999 Sims in the city and in the region, for those with very large cities and regions.
 - Added the MySim name, as well as support for the MySimtropolis: Members Immortalized in SC4 mod, and moved the icon to be more compact with the overall Query.

The bay of Sebastianskirch. A mesa with a Pagan site honoring 5 holy dwarves, a salt marsh, and a rock surrounded by a mystery why so many ships sailed into doom there. Read more about that in my latest CJ entry. Hope you like it.

Now working on the highway system for my city. Mainly showing this one because it took way too long to finally get it to remain stable:

That's nice, only one direction missing from the right to down way, ramps on one highway, diagonal left ramps very awkward. RHW excessive space consumption wonder so much into so little, well done !

Thank you, and yeah, everything you say is true. Unfortunately, my plan for the city forced me to jam this intersection close to the diagonal portion of the highway in the upper left quadrant, and the diagonal ramp pieces do make options a tad more limited.

Right now I’m relying on a future bypass route to make up for the missing ramp you pointed out (this part of the city is going to be a bit of a spaghetti bowl). I hope that works out because I have no idea how I’d add it to this intersection at this point lol. The problem with trying to go compact is that you don’t leave many gaps I suppose.

Preparing the terrain for some new docklands. The island at the bottom is probably going to be reconverted as well.

San Andreas International airport

[Girafarig 1,433]

Groundbreaking at the docks!

BTW, I'm having some issues with the rail-enabled lots here. I can't put one next to the other because of the rail lot, but I also can't find an adequate gap piece to fill in between. Does anyone have any recommendations as to what to use to have fully rail transit-enabled rail within my dock?

And in a similar note: can anyone recommend an inland container lot to use in the spare space here? I think I have nothing of the sort.
