New city, trying my hand at even more detailing and "realistic" layouts.

This looks really good. It almost looks like a photo. Nice work.

By the way, what are those silver posts on the corners?

[Ronyx69 2,413]

I usually don't post stuff like this, since I haven't really played the game since buying it lol, just making assets and messing with the map theme, lut, lighting and tonemapping settings.

Here's a little random area I made to test how it looks with assets I think are good, I usually test on random vanilla stuff with no detailing.

Gotta say the lighting in that 3rd shot especially is just so gorgeous and life like! 

[_Beardmonkey 449]

@Ronyx69 I really like the ambiance in those shots! Would you mind sharing what settings you used? That starred night sky shot looks awesome btw!

[Matthias King 348]

Like everyone else, I'm really impressed by that last shot.

That lonely yellow light, revealing the dirty back lot against a field of black. Very nice.

A few things that I balanced: (well at least attempted to balance)
map theme, lut, daynight lighting gradients, tonemapping settings, choice of assets

It would be cool to see how it looks in actual cities others have made. (I haven't even made a city yet, just some little testing spots)

Get the LUT and the script to change the lighting and tonemapping and you can try it out.
It may clash with daylight classic, softer shadows, ultimate eyeandy, or anything else that changes this stuff.

Add me on steam to talk about this stuff and maybe give me some screenshots.

What's the lut you used for the photo.It might be natural color since the best screenshots usually has that lut

How to install?

Put the file in:

C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Local\Colossal Order\Cities_Skylines\Addons\ColorCorrections

appdata may be hidden so you can just type it in the address bar.

 

I guess I shouldn't assume people know this stuff outside of the modding forum.

[NeguchiMaroyama 373]

I think I was a little extreme with this angle ^^

Still making my low-income neighborhood

I'm doing a San Francisco city build and was testing out some concepts to create the iconic Lombard street in all its glory. It's still a work in progress, and could definitely use some advice on how to make it look better. I wanted to have the winding road with rails on each side. I first started with one way highway elevated pieces, then moved to elevated ped paths, then I finally resorted on ground level ped paths and place the barriers myself.

Here's how it started...

And how it turned out... I still have more to work out and things to fine tune.

[Matthias King 348]

This is really impressive. I think it turned out really well. Though I don't think it's steep enough. Lombard's steep as hell isn't it?

A bit foggy in this new city I'm working on:

Layout before development, offset the grids:

Just trying to make the perfect exit

I'm actually working on highway markings (there will be few types of them) which have the same color as original highway lines. In one asset there will be parallel lines so it's way easier to draw them. You won't have to do it one by one. I'm still having some difficulties with visibility from distance but I will publish them on steam one's they are finished.

I recommend you to publish them as decals. Visibility of decals is limited, but it's the best solution.

[wojtason 113]

If I only knew how  I need to test existing decals first, I don't know how they work. Thanks for a suggestion!

[wojtason 113]

I know it might sound silly but I need to find out what decals are first

Tutorial here.

I tried to explain everything in depth in that tutorial, if you still need help add me on steam.

[wojtason 113]

Done

 

Guys, when I look at this exit ramp, I'm thinking about 1 thing. Save an asset in game not in asset editor... It's impossible to add custom props in asset editor to interchange so the only way is to create it as park which I'm not convinced to.I'm thinking about Move it mod which allows to select and copy selection. That's what I do in my cities sometimes, create perfect ramps somewhere and then just copy paste then where I want.

@Ronyx69 Very nice tutorial indeed! How does the priority value work?

The game orders stuff randomly... unless you have a priority. Then it will order by priority, so if you're making a pack of related things, group them together and order them how you want.

For example choose a beginning number, a large one, so you make sure you don't clash with other people assets - let's take 6789 for example.
Then you have a bunch of stuff in your asset pack and you order the assets, each has its own priority 678901, 678902, 678903...

[wojtason 113]

Ok I published it for testing only.

http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198259720263/myworkshopfiles/

There are 4 types of lines.

 

1.Lanes double - Solid-dash-solid to connect markings on 2 lane highways on nodes.

2.Lanes double sidedash - Solid - dash - dash - to easly create conversion between 3 and 2 lane highway

3.Lanes line only - just a short 1m line for finishing touches

4.Lanes single - it's for 1 lane highway, similar to Lanes double.

You will need More Beautification Mod and Prop Line Tool to place them. 

 

EDIT: Sorry for posting this here...

Got it! Too bad I didn't look this up before I started making decals. Does this apply to all assets? Is it possible to prioritize props and buildings as well?

Not sure if there are any exceptions, but yeah should apply to all.

 

Also this is not the modding discussion section. It's a thread for screenshots. We kinda took over, go to the modding section and post on my thread if you don't have your own.
