It already exists! I just changed the title.

 

[Sabretooth78 808]

Nothing wrong with going out on top. I have a feeling it'll carry over into the inaugural Ben's Top Ten - Cities: Skylines edition.

Achtung Baby!

For the next two months I will be playing SC4, so from today to the start of September I will posting about 2 or 3 entries per week. There are still areas of Weckum I have not shown to you, there is still much to complete in Annuq and there is other unfinished business I have with SC4. Let's begin!

[-----------------------------------------------]

Update 86- Trenton

Trenton is right in the centre of Weckum and contains a graveyard, a hospital, a shopping strip, a few industrial units and lots of apartment rows.

///

Trenton is right in the centre of this picture and to the left of the two corners of the river.

 

The east end of the shopping strip.

 

The West end of the shopping strip. To the bottom left is the hospital.

 

The apartment rows get more classy the closer one gets to the river.

 

Trenton graveyard.

 

I've found a perfect use for Bipin's industrial roads.

 

In the centre of the picture are the industrial units/buildings.

 

My favourite industrial estate- small, pokey and grimy.

 

Mind the corner.

 

The BATs of these two-storey council houses are just great and very useful 2 by 1 residential fillers.

 

The skyscraper in black was a happy accident which sprouted upwards.

 

Finally a preview of Annuq's CBD.

///

p.s. What are the dimensions of the featured pictures which are displayed on the Simtropolis homepage? I don't think it is 700 by 350 anymore.

p.p.s After inspecting the images with the "inspect element" tool on Firefox it appears that the featured pictures resolute is 879 by 540. Is this correct?

Wow, amazing photos from an amazing city. Awesome.

[SharkSark 397]

Missed your CJ a lot and looks awesome as always !

[gviper 922]

Looks really good!

[jmsepe 2,039]

Nice update and welcome back!

[RipRap 4,400]

Welcome back to SimCity 4! And those look beautiful  

[Belfastsocrates 1,753]

Superb update. Very nice to have you back with SC4 as well

[nos.17 5,215]

Glad you're back to SC4! It always makes me happy to see some of my lots being put to good use. 

[TekindusT 3,809]

You showed a bold mix of styles, great job!

[BLANKBLANK 4,414]

Replies:

dabadon5: Thanks a lot!

Sexysark:P: Thanks, in the next city I'm working on my bag of city-building tricks has become larger.

gviper: Thank you.

jmsepe: That's good to hear.

Tonraq: It's good to be back, SC4 is the ultimate orthogonal city-building sandbox.

Belfastsocrates: I will be alternating between SC4 and CS. It keeps both games fresh.

nos.17: Your lots are really, really useful for filling in low-density areas and they provide tons of jobs to!

Tekindus: For me that's the fun of SC4- building one area in a certain style and then changing that style for a different area. It also explains why I take longer completing these cities. Also alleyways, W2W and car parking has become an obsession for me whenever I play SC4.

 

[-----------------------------------------------]

Update 87- Riverside

Suburbs, diagonal buildings, W2W and a banked river- that's West Weckum in a nutshell!

///

And that is it for West Weckum.

///

Now as for the city of Annuq that should take no more than two weeks to complete. This city already has a very different feel to it because I've replaced many of the base grass textures with the Sudden Valley terrain mod ones- thanks to some useful mods. Plus I have finally become comfortable with adding canals and mixing them with heavy industry.

Next entry this Saturday.

[Shy Dude 149]

Wow, that's amazing, I love the contrast of the new vs the old vs the very old.

[Pobs 24]

I absolutely love this. Beautiful work.

[SUPERMESSI 294]

The 19th photo is just fantastic!

[MilitantRadical 2,844]

The canals, the angles, the little back alleys. Every nook and cranny jam packed with detail. Great work.

[Schulmanator 5,799]

Impressive! I like what I see here. ST can count on you to deliver with great stuff!

[philforhockey51 4,216]

Really nice work

[+Guest]

You man deserve a thumbs up.Great work!

[Benedict 3,119]

Nice work, you're back at number one on BTT this week.

[LexusInfernus 908]

Those are some lovely urban areas. Lovely as always

[BLANKBLANK 4,414]

Replies:

Shy Dude: Thanks, contrast is everything in my cities.

Pobs: Cheers!

SUPERMESSI: Glad to hear it.

Militant Radical: Yep, that's why it takes longer and longer to complete each new city.

Schulmanator: Thanks, also I always aim to deliver.

philforhockey51: Thank you.

3-D: Prime Directive 4: Build amazing SC4 cities.

Benedict: Alrighty!

LexusInfernus: Thank you!

[-----------------------------------------------]

Update 88: Industrial Grunge

In this entry we travel to South Weckum to explore more heavy industry.

[SUPERMESSI 294]

Very impressive in the details imo.

 

One thing is for sure: in three years, when C:S is fully developed in terms of custom content, i hope your cj there is still active (and the SC4 one also).

 

Inspirational, when i see some of your pics i tell myself: stop the region view, stop the city view, just play one hour in that little street and make it as beautifull as possible.

[gviper 922]

Absolutely fantastic! Love the details and the life-like quality to the layout...

[jacob814 16]

This is beautiful.I just wish I had time for all of this and city skylines
