    Yea I noticed that the size of the board is kinda messed and it that it takes long time to load the thread. In my case, all my pictures are 800*600 or smaller and between 100 and 150 kb. I know there is a limit of dimensions for pictures (800*600) but i think there is a limit for size too of 200kb.
     
    theyeti2001 and nonessentialnoodle , you should reduce the size of your pictures, otherwise they will get erased by a moderator or admin.

    nonessentialnoodle i meant european as in NON-GRID transportation and building layouts BUT FUNCTIONING AND REALISTIC, u said it looks like a normal city! well thats what its meant to look like 1.gif a normal euopean NON-GRID city.. if it looked unrealistic then it wouldnt look like a normal city any more would it.. that is all i meant - its diverse and creative, without being unrealistic (like european layouts) overall diverse city structure.. with lots of historic roads and lots of diversity

    it iz also a metropolitan city, like most european cities are to my knowledge

    This topic is great, and so are the images but could you people PLEASE post smaller images and make the size smaller too, i mean some images are 4mb and over 1000pixels. It took me more than 10 minutes to load this page with high speed cable26.gif

    If folk have a problem with post(s), then use the Report Post function, found in each & every single post, instead of just moaning about it in the thread. And maybe then, something will get done about it, sooner rather than later.

    Simple. Place the image tag, and then, inside it, just after the location, place width=800 height=600. It should then look something like this:


    SC4, Forevermore!

    Currently preoccupied with architecture school...lurking with caution.

    In my case, the first pictures I posted where you could see the city are very functionnal and efficient but the other pictures where there is no city visible are experimentations I'm doing in a undevelopped area so I have no idea if they are good or not. I'll incorporate some to future cities to test it but I couldn't test them all. If somebody has similar networks in an actual city, maybe he could tell it.

    Anyways, here is my last creation, a fully functionnal interchange between 4 (!) different highways, 2 of the highways are multi-highways and the way it's created, there are no traffic lights or stop sign necessary

    1) Overall picture

    /idealbb/files/network010.jpg

    2) Close-up of a section of the interchange

    /idealbb/files/network010a.jpg

    3) A comparaison with the normal interchange to give you an idea of the size (you dont't want to build this in a small city!)

    Thats crazzy, how long did it take u to do that, lol29.gif

    it would be interesting if you developed some zones around this thing and see if it works and if sims actually use it, but for eye candy its nice.

    I bit off topic, but I just have to... SIMMANIA, I visited your city's website, Daytona Canyon, and I must say that it's one of the most impressive cities I have ever seen. I recommend everyone to take a look. And FYI I don't speak a word of french...

    Thanx! Now I will show you the map of the highways of my city and of the subway, first the subway:

    Images deleted. Images are to be no more than 800x600 thanks. And please, do not use .PNG format, as they severally slow down the loading of pages. Use .JPEG thanks.

    The highway:

    I modified the screens!!!! So You whant a city journal. You know, my city it's not that it is almost finished but I dont have a lot of things to say. It's an old city, began before Rush hour, on January 21st 2003! 7 days after SC4 was on stores! I did a lot of transformations to convert the city in rush hour. So let's go that's a topic of transport, not of my personal city! So I will think about possibility of making a city journal! Dusk, I'm really enjoyed that you say that! You know I LOVE all yours BATS, your the reference of how making great towers!

    ( There will be Rail - I just forgot to include them in the pic. )
