Replies UndercoverNinja12-Thanks. The amount of images I was able to get actually surprised me. I didn't know if I had enough for an entry until I actually took all of them. malibu_man-Thank you. I'm glad to here that people enjoy the little snippets I add to the images. I'd do more zoomed out images, but I have had CTD issues in the past when trying to get them so I am a little hesitant when it comes to taking them. Sunr-Thanks. That Brooklyn Village was very troublesome to develop, as all W2W districts...

Replies gman28-Thanks. At one time I had a mod that added cul-de-sacs at the end of streets and roads. I have seen plenty of urban street dead end without them, however. Huston-Thank you. It's a little tougher since suburbs can tend to look identical after a while. UndercoverNinja12-Thanks. More highway shots will be coming, though not in this update as the east side of the highway is not finished. Also rails will be making an appearance in the future. The past few entries just haven't been good areas for...

Kings Ridge

Replies urielgarcia-Thank you. Benedict-Thank you. Aaron Graham-Thanks. This city should be fun to develop. UndercoverNinja12-Thanks. I would have to say that this stuff is some of my favorite content for much the same reasons. To All-Thank you for voting in the poll. The Santa Bella map will be available on the STEX later this week. Also, thanks for making this one of the top journals this past week. Kings Ridge I developed Kings Ridge with basic idea that this was the northwest end of Bella Vista and...

Arrow Cliffs

Replies slickbg56-Definitely seems like they should. Though at least with it being tropical climate having your house buried by snow isn't one of the things they have to worry about. UndercoverNinja12-Yeah, mountainsides can be quite tricky. Absolutely need a good slope mod to make it work. Alex_1210-Thank you. The trick with adding another airport is finding space for the takeoffs and landings without getting to close to downtown. It might be doable, but that's a project for down the road. Also as...

Mountainwood

Replies Blunder-Thanks for the advice. I'm not much of rural player and rarely use agriculture as a result. However, I will keep that in mind should I ever find a suitable area for agriculture. Ace-Thanks. I try to let people know what I am using when it is featured. nedal2001-Thanks. Benedict-Thanks. I think you'll find this similar to my work on Iris. Mountainwood-(Click on images for full resolution) Starting a new region is always a challenge. Figuring out where to put that first "city" can be really...

The Plotting Begins

Welcome. After a long hiatus, I am returning to the world of Sim City 4. For those of you who don't know me, I am a long time player having played the franchise since the mid 90's. Sim City 4 is by far my favorite iteration of the game, which I have been playing for ten years now. Over the years my stlye has evolved from maximum population to perhaps a more realistic aesthetic. This new journal will be a documentation of my construction of the Santa Bella region. The Santa Bella region is a reworked...
