Hey everyone. I've been so busy with work and life recently that I haven't had the time to post many updates. I have however now finished the area and will post images over the next day or two.

In the meantime, personal replies below to those I didn't respond to at time of the updates and a teaser of the area I've been working on and will showcase. I've taken about 45 in-game shots of the area so I'll maybe spread them across two posts

Also....I know some people hate the Maxis highways but I haven't quite found the patience to build compact RHW just yet in my urban areas. I will however be using RHW in some new city tiles this year that will be more suburban and rural and I'm looking forward to using it for the first time. (Just pre-empting the Maxis highway hate )

REPLIES

@Ln X - Thank you. I do worry a little about duplication but in the case of housing it's hard to avoid as it happens in the real world and is unavoidable.

@lucasfg3 - I'm glad you liked the pictures!

@slickbg56 - Bacon on a pizza! I'm all for that, you have me craving a chicken, pancetta, pepperoni and salami pizza now!! I'm glad you liked the update

@Shingure - Thanks, the long awaited update is almost ready, hopefully that'll satisfy your shopping fix

@gviper - I absolutely hate surface car parking!! lol But....I also appreciate they exist and I like to bring in some elements of realism to Perseus now and then

@MilitantRadical - Well here's another taster teaser, only a day to go though lol

@cmdp123789 - Not too much longer to wait

@kelistmac - Thank you! Hopefully you like this teaser also

@kschmidt - There's a massive difference between US and UK retail scale, it's just a shame we lack realistic UK retail warehousing, Thankfully people like @mattb325 and @rsc204 are working to address that

@tariely - Sorry.....just one more tease before the full update!

@tankmank - Thanks Josh! Glad you liked the teaser

@jmsepe - No offices in this particular area, just retail and housing, lots of offices though on the other side of the motorway

@tariely - Less dense areas are definitely on my priority list. This current large city tile is almost full so I'm then going to move to another tile and that will be mainly low density housing that begins to merge with parkland, forests and farmland. I also plan to start on the airport tile and progress work on Passau Island, but the latter is a much denser and urban project.

@Ln X - Passau doesn't have much industry, it's a clean tech and research city with some logistics thrown in, some of more that is planned. Rural is most certainly on my list, I'm just gathering ideas on how to plan that and the best way to blend it seamlessly with the urban area of Passau.

@raynev1 - I suppose same response to Ln X given you asked for the same thing lol

@tankmank - Is it difficult with too much repetition but some new content is planned by people like @Bipin that could help break up that repetition. There's always going to be that though as UK housing in the real world is very repetitive any way.
