Rebuilding the Maxis towns... in my own way

Entries in this City Journal

Thanks for the comments friends. Check this list to discover my little secrets, including the Terran Starcraft buildings Ready to visit New Earth again? Nothing better than a rebooted version of Earth, with small towns and space colonies here and there. The Maxis cities Fulham and Kensington from Old Earth are also rebooted on New Earth as well. Everything on New Earth is new. New Europe, New New York, New Pacific Ocean, New Greece, New Eiffel Tower, New Tokyo... everything! So we have New Fulham and New...

Childhood's End

By Terring,

Thanks for the comments friends and let me thank you for watching this city journal. This is the final update, so I hope that you'll enjoy it. Please have this song playing during reading Many months after the operation of the mysterious scientific laboratory in Tegel, strange things happened. More and more Sims claimed that they gain access to new abilities, way more advance that they already had. They developed new senses and emotions. They could see and feel things they never imagined, even with their...

Thanks for the comments guys. Kensington is ready, unless I decide to make something extra. A detailed city tour is coming up. Fulham is under reconstruction. This Maxis industrial city will now have arcologies, seaport and radio telescopes. And maybe... I don't know either.

Before the storm...

By Terring,

ggamgus, KonstantinII, Alejandro24, PaulSawyer and Steam Supported: Thank you guys . At first, let me share with you some secrets... Floating spacecrafts: http://dl.dbank.com/c02kw3y5py Street mod: https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=115 The heliport is loted to have grass in the stage 1, but after upgrading the grass is replaced by pavement. Industrial zones without trees are so common in the real world, that there is no reason to have them in my game too. Seriously, the...

Tegel is ready!

By Terring,

Thanks for the comments friends. Today we'll explore New Tegel, a small agricultural town of the future. Let's explore Tegel. This small heliport brings new citizens and tourists to Tegel. Expansion of the regional tram line. Tegel didn't had any park. Now it has a few of them. In the food market and the state fair you can find the newest achievements in food technology. Genetic mutated broccoli with chocolate flavour? We got it The new farms aren't the traditional rural farms anymore. They are now truly...

Rebuilding Tegel

By Terring,

Thanks for the comments guys . I always connect my cities with tram on road and subways. Why? Because I like it. Seriously now, is there a law that prevents us to build anything we want, for any reason we want? No offence, just curiosity. Why I should limit the usage of tram lines for inner city development only, when I can and want to build a regional tram line system? Tram lines are meant to be useful, no matter what. Many people build huge highways for regional transportation. No problem, but not for...

Thanks for the comments guys . No dependency problem with the avenue, since they doesn't need any dependency after all. Konradshohe is ready and kicking. I tried to keep the original style of mini metropolis, but it's highly enriched this time. Hope that you like it. The new version of Konradshohe is bigger, greener and more futuristic. It's more populated but less overcrowded. It has taller buildings, a small spaceport, parks and more efficient industries. The industrial zone doesn't pollute the...
Terring
Thanks for the comments friends. Since we're in he future, we can use genetic engineering to bring the dinosaurs back This update well be a little short. Today we'll rebuild Konradshohe, the largest city in New Berlin. OH MY GOODNESS!! This city is more than just ugly. Brown boring buildings, heavy traffic, not even a single bus, tons of abandoned buildings, few to non parks, bumpy roads and underfunded civil services. What a mess! This city is so ugly and miserable that makes everybody (and everypony)...

Spandau is ready

By Terring,

Thanks for the comments guys. Spandau is ready, so let's make a city tour. Let's have a look at the new industrial zone. Here we can find sophisticated industries that product anything we wish, from prefab homes to artificial intelligent cars. Those factories use mostly robots for the tasks and doesn't disturb the environment. So don't be surprised if you found deer walking around the factories. I prefer to cover the undeveloped zones by grass, trees or anything else, instead of just hiding them by...

Rebuilding Spandau

By Terring,

Thanks for the comments folks. Silliness is not thinking about ancient extraterrestrial civilization. Rejecting it as silliness is silliness Anyway, back to reconstructions. But first, let me show you New Berlin. This time I played with a Here are a few pictures with the new trees. Our first town we'll rebuild is Spandau. Spandau isn't that bad, but it need a lot of improvements. There is no water, no garbage management and no police and fire stations. It also have bumpy roads, so the cars here break down...
Terring
If is true that something is better than nothing, I guess that this teaser is the something that is better than nothing . I'm working on Berlin with a new tree controller this time. Pictures of it are coming up. Now that N.A.M. 31.1 is here, I need to clean up a bit my plugins. After that, I'm going to rebuild the Maxis cities one by one, probably beginning with Spandau. Cool surprises are included, so stay tuned

Rebuilding Kensington

By Terring,

Alejandro24, dubaidude303, IL., ggamgus, KonstantinII: Thank you guys. The Tunisian buildings will be very useful for Kensington, because they look a bit like the homes of the Venus Project. I get the water plant from a Japanese site but I can't remember the site. I'll search for it. And why messing with cables, when you can use wireless transition technology? Time to rebuild Kensington. Before that, let's have a look at Fulham. Ah, much better! Now this is what I call industries! And as you can see, it's...

Schulmanator, Alejandro24, ggamgus, Megan Fox, IL., PaulSawyer, KonstantinII, felano and titanicbuff: Thank you folks . As about the year, I don't know either Time to share with you my little secrets: Reloted SimMars buildings - Extra small homes - (reloted by me to fit better in my cities) Birds - Macaws, Crows, Buzzards It seems that rebuilding the Maxis towns Fulham and Kensington will need more time that I though. No problem for me

Rebuilding Fulham

By Terring,

Schulmanator, Alejandro24, Evillions: Thanks for the comments folks. I'm not leaving SimMars, I just decide to try something less extraterrestrial (but still "heretic" ). You can find the tree controller from here. Today we'll rebuild Fulham, the industrial city of the London region. Let's have a look to this city. Oh boy, this city is ugly! Small low technology factories, polluting the environment and surrounded by bumpy roads with cars, cars and more cars. Can this city be uglier? AAAAH, MY EYES! A...

New Earth

By Terring,

Steam Supported: Thanks Of course if you want something better, check Eden: The New Frontier At first my plans was to make a simple city journal, but then I said "let's add a small background story". So why not? Let's add a small nice story about changing the original Maxis towns. During the 21st century, the Simkind colonized the Solar System, terraformed Mars and established a global resource based economy, creating a society based on the scientific wisdom. During the 22nd century, the first interstellar...

Let there be light

By Terring,

For some time I get a little bored with Simcity 4, but I missed construction. So I decide to make a new city journal, just for my own fun. All of you know that Maxis made some towns to play in the beginning of the game. Many players founds them too ugly and useless, so they decide to remove them. But what if we give them a second change? How those towns may look like, if I was the mayor? My tools are ready. SimMars, N.A.M., SP.A.M., R.T.M.T., custom made buildings, new terrain features, new vehicles....
