Well, steep is the reason for funiculars ;-)

They're supposed to be steep. In fact, Valparaiso funiculars are so steep, any steeper, they would be elevators.

Really Cool. Love your Rural Areas Espesially from throughout the CJ. Just a quick Question:

Are the Boats Flying or are they just the Shadows off the sea-bed?

No, they're not flying... the shadows on the seabed, yeah I know... in rather shallow waters they have that 'effect'... I don't really know if it can be 'repaired' (aside from making the water deeper until you won't see any more shadows)...

These are AMAZING! I'm with MamaLuigi - I'll go get your crown. (I also had the same question as TheHaso - I was <em>really</em> hoping they would fly, but I guess that would ruin your incredible realism)<br>

I really like the entire entire city which I believe was named after a movie ;D

Anyway, the only thing I don't like is the choice in bridge, they don't seem ethical for towns this small.

[quote]What night mod do you use?[/quote]

None, as I find them all way too dark, losing too much detail... so I just put my nightpics through photoshop to cut out the reddish tint of the default night images...

Well, as I said - no terrain mod... for rocks I use PEG's Mossy Rock mod from the PPond series.

Oh, come to think of it - I do use PEG's Terrain Mod v2... but that does not alter any of the textures though, just raises the terrain generally to a higher level. The textures all remain default.
