Hello Everybody!
I decided to bring a development thread here which mostly will be based on my original (and first) Tyberius (Heretic Projects) Lotting and Modding Experiments on SC4Devotion. But also will be a bit different. This thread will be the main showcase surface of my older stuffs, including the older version of my NeoNoir region, which had been discontinued when the prop pox hit the most developed city (NoirCity - North Harbour) 2 years ago. Then I remade the layout of the MAP, I expanded it and restarted this city tile while I transfered the rest of the cities and modified them to match with new North Harbour transportation layout. Of course I still have the original MAP with the original cities and since the Prop Pox issue has been solved I removed the triggering stuffs from the original city. I was lucky because after a bunch of bad experiences with game crashes and prop pox and other stuffs I had several well documented back-ups for the whole region, so I have a most recent working version of it. So I'm actually thinking about playing both on the original city and the new, at least I want to finish North Harbour as I planned years ago, because with the new one I'm following a more contolled method, with limited amount of plugins (the original plugin folder contained a huge amount of unused stuffs, mostly all the main dependency packages from LEX and STEX, it didn't matter if they were used or not at all, but I can not change now the structure of it after this many years specially that the datpacked files were modified a couple of times, so any changes would break my game probably), and because the original one is almost finished.
The other reaseon is - and part of this thread will be about it -, that I made custom modified projects since 2015 (it started before this NeoNoir map and since then I revisited most of them after I released the Heretic SeaPort Project and figured it out how many mistakes I'd made on my earlier relots), and the inspiration came from Samgoogolplexian/@Moonraker0 SimCity 4: Let's Play Pinecastle youtube videos and SimCity 4 Let's Play—Solitude, and when he shared his custom made fillers, gave me the idea to start making similiar fillers. Well I haven't released them yet (they have an evolution as well, but I think I didn't keep the first early version of them), but they are actually the updated versions of my very first custom lots, however I recently started a project and with that some of these lots will get an other update, mostly texture-wise.
I'm planing comparsion images between the old and new region to show how I changed the layout on highly developped existing cities. I used to share images about North Harbour here on Simtropolis (Show us... threads), but I had couple of problems with image hosters so mostly I lost those images or would be too tedious work to restore them. I restored most of the images on SC4 Devotion, but I couldn't find the early developmental WIP images for the Heretic Seaport Project (you can read the general statement about it clicking onto the link), but since that was way too long ago and it has been released since then, it doesn't really matter.
As I said this thread will show a bunch of early lotting stuffs and how they and I have been evolving since then. I found my earlies remaining relots from the end of 2015 and begining of 2016, but most of the very first version had been overwritten by updates.
In the following posts, however, I'll bring one of my "special" unreleased relot, which also lost its first version, but I can show a kind of evolution of it, since it's under revisit atm for a possible future release.
In this first post (and the first section of it) I'm gonna collect all of my upload from LEX and STEX too and will update when I release some new stuffs. (Klicking onto the picture you can reach the primary release - by default that is the LEX -, and where there is alternative download option you can find that under the picture, but some of my releases only available on STEX.)
