CYRANIA

CyraniaJPGforum.JPG

CyraniaWithNames.JPG

Ive recently begun another city after a long break from sc4. All the new goodies available like NAM and others, i just couldnt resist. Anyway, there are

too many pics to host now, so I have a small, simple website at:

https://home.comcast.net/~cy7/

Mods Used:

Lots of PEG lots and their Bergintine water mod

NAM(of course)

Cycledoggs Terrain and Tree's

Many more lots and tweaks

Cyrania has always been the region that I have tried to create, but every time i quit with frustration. With this city I would like to go all the way. Note that I have created a region view history on one of the links and it shows my progress thus far. So make sure you click on the "Region History" link on my website.

By the way, I am not the best terrain editor, as u can see with the box outlines on my cities even without the gridlines. Oh well I say, enjoy the city.

    Like I said, im new to all of the new user creating stuff thats popped up. NAM was the only one I found that was very popular. To tell u the truth, i love all the new lots that people have created, i just wish there was a comprehensive pack that i could download instead of sifting through the thousands of creations for the most viable, usable, and realistic ones.

    Anyway, what is this water mod, what does it do?

    A water mod will change the color of you're actual water . Search ''Brigantine'' on the STEX . I use this one and it's very good ! If my english is not good , it's just I'm from Quebec and I speak origninally french 5.gif

    Hey, that looks very nice. I just think you might add more trees here and there. But otherwise it's a great rural region.

    Hi, great start, seems to me that it will become a great rural CJ. The regional view is greatwith all those farms. I like how you set them.

    Thanks for all the wonderful comments guys. Im a bit short on close up pics, the ones i do have suck IMOP and do not show my cities very well. Im working on getting more soon. For now, here is for those of you who didnt go to the website and view the region history. One of my main reasons for starting over, was to also record the evolution of my city through region pics. Here they are:

    And so it begins...

    Welcome to the next installment of Cyrania! This one is a big one, including a complete revamp of the terrain with cycledoggs beautiful terrain and tree's, simply amazing btw. Ive also collected other wonderful lots and mods including many from PEG, another great modding team. Alright, without further delay:

    CyraniaJPGforum.JPG

    Increased the agriculture industry to its max, most likely. Cities have grown a little bit of course. Hekate Harbor development was built(a bit south of the main city). Entage, the city in the south right along the coast, was founded. All and all, an increase in development in all parts. Next addition will include another obvious increase in urban areas with a decrease in agriculture around those towns. I will also try to add an expansion of terrain along the north and western borders.

    And do not worry, ive been hard at work with the close up pics, and here they come in the following posts!
