Shary Grove-My first CJ on Simtropolis

[Sagrel 0]

UPDATE 1

 

So...that's my first CJ here on Simtropolis. The name of my city is Shary Grove and i'll manage to make it live as longer as possible.

 

So...a regional view to begin my first update!

I'll begin my CJ with some different parts of the city.

So here are the farms of the city.

 

Wild Farms and Livinia Fields are the two rural villages of the city...for the moment.

 

So here's Livinia Fields.

 

 

So...as you can see...it is not very big...it's only a little village.

 

 

And now Wild Farms...the village next to Livinia Fields...

1500 people are living in it...

 

 

 

This is the park made for the two villages...they are neighbors so sometimes...they meet themselves to discuss about developping the city...

 

 

 

So...that's all for my first update on Simtropolis!

Hope you like it...more screens soon...

Wow this is a really good effort at a first CJ.The land mod,the water mod and that snow mod are awesome.I really like the pikes!

 

The rural setup is really pleasing to the eye even though you could put more trees between the farms too form a wind barrier.

 

Other then that good start!

 

EDIT:also could you take pictures in the future without the car icons on.Just enter the u drive it area and look for an X.

wow keep it up

[pickled_pig 7]

nice.  I see a lot of good, quality content from the STEX; some nice residential buildings, a water mod... but I have some suggestions, which I hope you can take constuctively:

 

1. as cjah said, seriously put trees between the farms.  It's all in the sake of realism.

2. Don't place commercial on side streets in such a small town

3. I am curious as to why SG's Best Western is in the middle of such a small town.  I like placing hotels off the on-ramps of my highways.

 

Other than that, great start

[dfnva 34]

Nice farms and small towns. Looks like you're off to a good start. Good luck.

Update 2

 

For the second update...i'll talk about the refinery and the Shary Grove Seaport.

 

Shary Grove Seaport

Firstly, the seaport.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The refinery (Part 1)

So here's the first part of the refinery. For the moment, it is not very big but it has the essential.

 

 

 

 

So that's all for today...Hope you like it! Post a comment or suggestions please

 

Bye

i love that seaport, that thing is amazing..  keep up the great work and can't wait to see more!!!!

[Nardo69 51]

Good start! I like these larging, not completely flat farming areas! Just a hint:
Get The JMyer Farms. Thesy add a lot of variety and since they use the ingame fields they don't make as much problems on lopes as the BSC/CSX farms with custom fields (except that they have also some dependencies -> read the readme )

As CJah posted put something in between the fields. This need not necessarily be plopped tree, I personally would recommend you Suico's farm fences, the BSC DAE forest tracks or PEG'S seasonal woods. There are a lot of other lots on the stex, just have a lot!

That harbour is marvellous. I really like epecially that perfectly sloped street going down to the harbour with Jeroni's classic retaining walls on it side. Such a easy layout but everytime an eyecatcher (at least for someone like me)

Keep it up!

Great start with Shary Grove. The farming community looks great. Yeah, maybe if you add some fences in between the farms...

The mountians are cool looking...

Great job!

At first glance I didn't like it because of the terraforming, but now I've read through the whole thread and I actually like this CJ. Very detail oriented...good job.

This has to be one of the *prettiest* cities I have seen yet.
