Entry One - Introduction

Wreckingball Man

1,770 Views

:party: It's been several years since I've played SC4. In this thread I'm making a city with whatever I had in my Plugin folder from years ago, plus whatever I feel like adding to it now. I'll definitely be taking suggestions. There will be no RHW as of yet, so don't even say it. I'm just kidding, RHW takes too much time for me to build right now. My time is limited as I'm a busy University Student. I'll be constantly revising old cities and building new ones, so maybe you'll see RHW in the future. I sure hope so!

The format of the updates will be progression pics, I'll show a blank region, a plan, it's development and in the next update a finished picture. So you'll see a lot of before and afters, and I'll share with you anything you would like to know.

The goal of this region is to make the most realistic city I can while still "playing" the game and keeping it relatively kosher. Like I said, time spent in-game will be very brief. Every building will be grown, everything will be functional (for the most part). I like playing the game more so than I like "modeling" or making artistic scenes. So strap yourselves in, this is purely for fun. Quick and realistic cities.

Alright, now to immediately contradict myself, here's a teaser of the Port that is currently in development. I'm still a newbie at taking pics by the way.

Pretty impressive sea port. Feel like there should be more action in the water with such a large port. You'll find there are tons of ploppable boats to scatter around.

 

I really like how you terraform your bridge approaches further inland, allowing the use of the land underneath. I've always terraformed right to the the edges. I might have to give your design a try sometime.

 

Would suggest searching around for a water mod too. That water color burns the eyes. It detracts from image of your port. Trust it'll make a world of difference.

Wow, impressive port! And I agree with infamousjibe, getting another type of water mod would really help the aesthetics of your CJ. I can't really say the water looks very natural with color :P But wow, still impressive!

The shipyards look really good, so do those bridges. I've seen them before but where do you get them? I have the docks but where are those large cargo freight yards founds?

Only thing that gets me is how narrow some sections of the port are. I know large cargo ships wouldn't be able to comfortably fit in there well. And they aren't regulation width but that's just my inner boater speaking. :P Nice job!
