Cori's Terrain Shoppe  by CorinaMarie@Simtropolis A picture catalogue of every known Terrain Mod for SimCity 4 Note: I did not create any of these mods. This thread is simply to display each terrain mod using the same city tile for easy comparison. If you find this useful feel free to use your browser's Save As function and do a Save Complete Web Page. This will give you an offline copy with all the pictures.  My content is freely available for use by anyone. You can even make a duplicate thread on any other site if you like. Please, just be sure to give me credit for the original creation. The first three Terrain Mods are hosted on both the LEX and the STEX and have slightly different names, but are the same mods. So, you only need the left hand side or the right hand side as separated by the slash. Ofc, the ones on LEX require a separate login. If you haven't signed up there I highly advise it. They've got great content too. (And a side note, the registration for the LEX is separate from the SC4Devotion forums.) The linkys that are indented in a bullet list (like this) are the dependencies. You'll notice a lot of duplication of the those deps. If you get the CPT No3 & No4 once, you do not need to re-get them for other terrain mods that require them. For peeps with 16:9 (or other wide screen) monitors you could open this thread in two separate windows side by side.  This would allow you to have independent scroll bars to compare specific mods. It would also work if you have dual monitors tho there may be some slight color difference between the two.

Otherwise, it's all vanilla. So, what you see is what the complete mod does. Some have Cliff (rock), Beach, and Water. Or some combination. Or only the terrain itself. If you download a mod and have any difficulty with it and when all else fails, read the ReadMe instructions that comes with it. Note 2: The following images were shot on my low end system at 1280 x 1024 resolution. See @rsc204's post later in this thread for comments on how you can improve the look on your system and for a linky there to a tutorial on how to do that.   Ok, so let's start out with plain vanilla so we have that as a basis from which to compare:     CPT Painted Desert Terrain Mod1 (v1.0) / CPT Painted Desert Terrain Mod CPT No3 Terrain Textures (v1.0) / CPT No3 TerrainTextures CPT No4 Terrain Textures (v1.0) / CPT No4 TerrainTextures     CPT OlympicTerrain Mod1 (v1.0) / CPT Olympic Terrain Mod 1 CPT No3 Terrain Textures (v1.0) / CPT No3 TerrainTextures CPT No4 Terrain Textures (v1.0) / CPT No4 TerrainTextures     CPT Missouri Breaks Terrain Mod (v1.0) / CPT Missouri Breaks Terrain Mod CPT No3 Terrain Textures (v1.0) / CPT No3 TerrainTextures CPT No4 Terrain Textures (v1.0) / CPT No4 TerrainTextures     CPT Italia Terrain Mod (v1.0) CPT No3 Terrain Textures (v1.0) / CPT No3 TerrainTextures CPT No4 Terrain Textures (v1.0) / CPT No4 TerrainTextures     CPT Canyonlands Terrain Mod (v1.0) CPT No3 Terrain Textures (v1.0) / CPT No3 TerrainTextures CPT No4 Terrain Textures (v1.0) / CPT No4 TerrainTextures     CPT Grand Canyon Terrain Mod (v1.0) CPT No3 Terrain Textures (v1.0) / CPT No3 TerrainTextures CPT No4 Terrain Textures (v1.0) / CPT No4 TerrainTextures     Columbus Textures for jeronijs mod  aka Columbus Terrain Mod v1.0     Columbus Terrain Mod von Cycledogg   aka Columbus Terrain Mod v2.0 CPT No3 Terrain Textures (v1.0) / CPT No3 TerrainTextures CPT No4 Terrain Textures (v1.0) / CPT No4 TerrainTextures     Meadowshire Terrain Mod (v1.0) CPT No3 Terrain Textures (v1.0) / CPT No3 TerrainTextures CPT No4 Terrain Textures (v1.0) / CPT No4 TerrainTextures     LBT Bajio Terrain Mod 2     LBT Cumbres Terrain Mod 2     LBT Yucatan Terrain Mod 2     LBT Chihuahuan Terrain Mod 2     HBS Californian Terrain Mod 1     Terrain Mod Pack contains 16 total (there is a zip within the zip for the 2nd eight) Dark Rock:   Dirt:   Dry Grass:   Grass:   Grass and Flowers:   Ice and Grass:   Savannah:   Snow and Grass:   Now in Alien Terrain Pack of Terrain Mod Pack Blue #2:   Blue:   Circuit:   Green:   Lava:   Moon:   Space:   Web:   Terrain Mod Pack 2 contains 4 Blue Moon:   Green #2:   Lava Rock:   Red:     Alien Terrain     Grass Lands Terrain Mod     Socorro Terrain Mod 1 CPT No3 Terrain Textures (v1.0) / CPT No3 TerrainTextures CPT No4 Terrain Textures (v1.0) / CPT No4 TerrainTextures     Socorro Terrain Mod [V. 2] contains 2 CPT No3 Terrain Textures (v1.0) / CPT No3 TerrainTextures CPT No4 Terrain Textures (v1.0) / CPT No4 TerrainTextures Dry Coasts:   Regular Coasts:     PEG MTP Terrain Modd 1 ^ No, it's not plain vanilla.
