INTRO

First man has moved here after the over-population event of the old Greatest City of Man and see what's need for a new City.
Follow him, thousand and thousand people moved here and settled residence around The First Man's House. The First Man was honored as the founder of the new City.
And, because the city is located at the edge of the continent, so the people of this city have called their city the name The New Continental City
With the advantage of deep-water bay, and the particularly important position in the international maritime route, The New Continental City has grown to become one of the most bustling commercial port in the world.
With flashy beauty, modern but very elegant, The New Continental City has been honored as the Pearl of the South.

Amazing work, some of the original photos that actually inspired me to start really getting into city builders. Unfortunately my cities built with CXL don't look nearly as impressive. One thing I would love to know about your work, and really others as well, is how do you get some of these effects? For instance, the very first picture with the title on it has a great tilt shift effect on it. I don't know how you would get some of these types of effects in game, so I assume they are added through Photoshop or something similar?  Clouds, blurs, saturation, contrast, sharpness, tone & hue overlays, etc etc etc. Some of the city journals I can tell have obviously been edited with photoshop, but some of them, like yours, I am not certain about. 

 

So, again, great work. I really hope to build something as impressive as this someday! Who knows, maybe CXL will fix the performance problems and I can actually enjoy playing the game... And, that's the other thing, how do you guys with these massive cities work on them? When I get a city to around 100k I start noticing significant lag, even after reloading. It's so frustrating having to reload all the time, and then the crashes and bugs... ugh...
