SimCityHawk's real world based cities

Hello all!

During the years I have created many cities based on the real world. My goal is not to maximize population count nor to seek extreme land values. My goal is instead to create authentic cities that represents the real world in the best way possible. For instance, if a city has a reputation for a high level of crime, I will try and make it look so.  

I will upload the files on this forum in the future. 

Some examples of cities I have created in SimCity 3000: 

Los Angeles, Las Vegas, New York City, Seattle, San Francisco, El Paso, Sydney, Tokyo, Shanghai, Beijing, Singapore, Vladivostock, Moscow, Cairo, Berlin, Paris, Prague, Rome, Hamburg, Rotterdam, Amsterdam, The Hague, London, Copenhagen, Stockholm and Reyjkavik.

Some of these I have already uploaded under the ST exchange for SimCity 3000 Cities & Maps.  I will upload more when I have more time on my hands....! Please, let me know what you think. And feel free to send me a message if you have a suggestion for a new city.


Such as:

 

 

 

Cheers!

followed by Napoleon's tomb in the "Invalides", next is the cathedral of "Notre Dame"
and the church of "Sacré Coeur", after it is the "Arc de Triomphe" and last is the Bastille column.

    I have uploaded Los Angeles, Las Vegas, London + many more already on this page: https://community.simtropolis.com/files/category/43-cities-maps/

    The reason why I haven't uploaded all my cities is that they are on another harddisk that I do not have acces to right now. But I'll get it in the nearest future ;-)

    EDIT: huzman - What is my reward, then? :D

    Could you please upload Prague map? Or at least the Prague terrain. I've been looking for this for years.

    Hi @baxtry12, sorry for the late response.

    I have created my own Prague-terrain. However I never managed to finish the city creation. The file is saved on another computer, that I will get access to soon. Are you still interested?

    Hi @SimCityHawk, I am definitely still interested and I would be very glad for the terrain. I hope I will make my own Prague recreation.

    Hi again @baxtry12

    I have just now sent you a private message with my Prague terrain file attached to it. I can see that in the file I have started creating a little bit of road network a few years back. But apparently I was not motivated to continue working on the city *:lol: 

    I would love to see your Prague city. Would you care to share it here when you are finished?

    @baxtry12  I can see that I have tried making the inner medieval city of Prague look authentic with curved streets. But it's not easy to create medieval city centers like Prague in SC3000.
