Page 1 Sim Mars City Journal

with sim mars beta2 comming out I though I would give you a look at what your getting. The terrain textures have improved and thats what I want you to see. Landmarks are being switched to Growables. I have also made some new farms which will also be growable. So keep an eye on this CJ and I will update it as time allows durring the next three weeks.

    I downloaded this map off the Stex this Region will be added to the package this time as it is so you can see that Mars is red.

    This is the new terrain as you can see it flows much nicer and does look alot better. This pic also show some of my farm these are some of the 1x1 tiles I did for the farms. I think they were made by outdoorsman or octapus7 I am not sure.

    Thank you... Glad you like the new textures. I will post more pics such as the ice for water and some of the farms I am working on next and if I can get the copley houses to grow  I will post them also.
     
     
    side note: there were a few growables in Beta 1 but not enough for you all to notice.

    This one was allready a Growable when Beta 1 was released so you allready had one growing. I am not sure who made this one either but  I left the lot as it was.
     
     
    <ahttps://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/files//hf_mysterymon_mars_0825_01.jpg align=baseline> Sim Mars a new way of life will be a non terraformed Mars no water unless its ice. Alot of nice building were released with beta 1 but most of them you may not have been aware of. Becasue they were for the most part Landmarks or Park lots. Now there were a few growable Manufacturing lots if I can get them to grow since they were suppose to allready grow I will post pics of it. the setting may be set to high. My goal the last few days was to get the lots that came with Beta 1 onto growable lots I am about finished with that now. In the days to come before Release of Beta 2 I will show you a few lots that will be new teasers if you will.  I hope you continue to enjoy this Cj and take a look at whats going to be added to the New Beta Release.

    Thats the purpose of this CJ to give a second look at what beta1 should have looked like and what will beta2 look like..

    Thats it for lots that are plop and will stay plop.
     
    Next pic is to show you that we do have some growables growing work on the lots them selves need some work but this is just a rough draft.

     octapuss and outdoorsman
    Allright as you can see we have a bunch of the 1x1 lots poping up more often now I will get you guys all stats soon even anikins hovel is starting to pop up. I am going to grab a mod and retest it now that I have a few more lots to work with. See if I can get more of them to pop up including the cobley homes which are not poping up at the moment but that just might be becasue they are not wanted.. I sent them off to be tested.
     
    i still forgot to see who did these bats so I will try to remeber to look them up later today.

    ok, the fire stations, prison, and small police station were done by me, as was the grand musuem in the last shot, outdoorsman was responsible for the small 1x1 houses , and that brown house with the domes (anakins hovel) was also done by me, based on buildings in star wars the phantom menace, hope that helps you..
