Nice! I was trying to make a ferry terminal something like this, but ended up abandoning it. This makes me want to give it another go... I'd sure like to have some proper RoRo ferries and ramps though!

 

Yeah im missing the ramps aswell, would make it so much more realistic.

This is the closest I've come with the current assets:

So no, not even close to a realistic ramp

I scrapped mine, but here's the general approach I was using:

Thats quite nice actually. Not perfect, but way better than mine

The harbor is nearing completion!:

 

The main hospital of the city.

The port looks incredible. I did not even know skylines could make such a beautiful port. Its so difficult looking at these images and accepting that they are from a game and not real life. Very nicely done.

I've made some progress with the downtown area.
 The first shot is of the "main passenger station" (Which already is quite under dimensioned regarding the size of the city )

 

Bridges with traintracks leading towards the station. In the background you see two modern office buildings:

 

One of the island (im planing of having 2-3 island connected to the downtown area:

 

A new office building taking shape:

 

A "vacant" plot, which soon enough will house a new building:

 

Thats all for now, stay tuned!

[Robban040 1,091]

Completed the "tip of the city", which includes the rail station, downtown, a science island and much more!:

Overview of the whole city:

 

The station, some modern office building in the background:

 

A beach, overlooking "the science island"

 

Stay tuned!

Great work, as usual.

What is that building in the upper left? The big, odd-shaped one with part white tiles and part black?

Your work is way better than that of the popular youtube guys. When you actually mistake ingame screenshots for real world or satellite images, you know you've build a beautiful, realistic city. Do keep it up, your city is an absolute joy to watch.

Thanks. I've actually seen that Saturn store on the workshop before, but I always passed it by because it's in German. I spend a lot of time in first-person, so the German signs in a US city would bug the hell out of me, but I have to say, the building looks great in your screenshots.

And agreed with @TonyFullhouse Your shots always look fantastic. They could be mistaken for real photos.

You could put some workshop logo's or billboards over the Saturn logo's with the prop snapping mod

[Matthias King 348]

That's an idea.

Thank you very much!  I've done some progress, more screens soon enough

Another man-made "peninsula" completed, housing some filthy industry!

Exporting different kinds of minerals.

 

The main power plant of the city is also located on the peninsula.

 

New industry is moving in:

Amazing. I just got done looking at @Roadman20's Seattle, with several pics of the real Seattle, then I can in here, and for a second, I thought I was looking at more real-life photos. Especially that last one with the construction site. Your pics are some of, if not the best I've seen.

Question: Since Natural Disasters, how are you terraforming and reshaping your coast without the water demolishing your city? I don't even have the DLC, but now when I try to terraform, the waves knock down half my city and all power and transportation infrastructure. I'm working on a new city, but I haven't been able to terraform anything.

Really awesome update. You have a real talent with ground decals and textures. Question: On your second pic. What asset are those grain/mineral elevators called on stream?

If I'm not mistaken, those are the 'Coal transport shaft' asset from @Avanya.

And I believe the grain elevator itself is the '10A-FA-Elevator 2' from 10Avoid.

Yeah terraforming water sucks big time since the patch. I try to terraform small areas at a time, let the waves settle and then i terraform some more. Looks like the buildings can handle some amount of water without come crashing down

Regarding the buildings; What Matthias King said

[whiteshark365 563]

Thanks @Robban040and @Matthias Kingfor letting me know what it was called.

Completed this part of town. Population is currently between 85-100.000.

Overview of the more or less the whole city at it current status:

 

Finished up the urban area across the bay

 

A shopping area, easily accessible from the highway:

 

Quite a jungle out there!

 

Last shot is taken from other side of town. Some high end apartments by the beach.

 

Right now im working on what will be a new city center, with a big ass railyard being part of it

 

 

[Matthias King 348]

Excellent, as always.

[BLANKBLANK 4,414]

Brilliant pictures, you have a real knack for city layouts and space.

[jmsepe 2,038]

Is this even CSL? It's starting to look like Google Earth. Hahaha. Very realistic though.

I see what you did with the batea there, lol. I love the construction and road work bits specially, I'm working on something similar myself and I'll be taking some of these ideas if you don't mind

You are more than welcome to take whatever you like! Dont forget to show me what you are creating though!

Been working on a new, more modern downtown.

First off is the main railyard:

 

View from the other side:

 

Maintenance halls:

 

One during the dark hours:

 

More shots from the "actual" downtown is coming up shortly!

Stay tuned!
