Yeah I decided I'm gonna start my own City Journal. I'm new to this whole journal thing, not to mention SIM CITY 4..tho I'm experienced with SIM CITY 3000. So I picked up Sim City 4 fast.

Anyways... unfortunelly there is few Dune based buildings around (SOMEBODY GO MOD THEM GODDAMNIT )

So yeah, lets use our imagaination.

Anyways I'm aiming for 3 major cities. Caladan (House Atredis) Kaitain (House Corrino, Imperial House) and Gedi Prime (House Harkonneon) *Hopefully when I get to Kaitain, some wonderful, kind, gentle human being would have the Imperial Palace.

Note that they are suppose to be PLANETS but yeah lets scale them back into cities.

This is Caladan Upper (Red light District) The ghetto! Note the wored down buildings.

Anyways I started with Caladan Upper first and it is finished.



Overview of Caladan Upper. In Dune Caladan was an waterly planet.. so yeah hence the large amount of ocean.

Nothing really special.. unless you want to watch old abandoned buildings...

Anyways working on Caladan-Lower.

So yeah suggestions.

try using some of the oriental buildings on STEX as well - some of the mosques as well as the taj mahal & Hagia Sofia (in games) can help portray the Arrakeen palaces. and oh yah try and get ur hands on the desert mod... or better idea - go fish at Sim Mars part of the forum

Woot Update!



Caladan's cheif export... Pundi Rice! Hmmmm.. Tastes like shi.. I mean it tastes good.



Suburbs of Caladan, where everyone lives happily under the Duke and nobody gets raped, murdered, robbed or the other stuff.



To keep the population happy, the wonderful Duke has built a golf course! And a Hospital right next to it. (So if you get wacked in the face with a golf club, help is only a street away!)


Anyways, I have a few questions, the docks.. Like the lil piers I saw on other people's screenshot, where do I get that? Becuase all I see is the harbors(Which I don't want) Are those from Rush Hour or are they addon bats? Speaking of Bats anybody want to give me a link to a different download site for it, not the EA one?

Anybody have any comments?

[Lyhoko Leaci 770]

Looks good, and the location for BATs and other stuff is here: ST EXchange (you can also look on the left side of the page to find the link) (I think you need rush hour for the BATs to work)
