Whats this I see? Looks like a little variant of my desgin in the RHW guide (sc4devotion), last picture on the left. Hmmm

The cities theirselves are great, too bad the game makes it look so stupid by having these little clusters and emptyness untill the next cluster. But again, the cities theirselves look good.

Ugh, that's just sad there is a mod that removes those one way arrows. And what kind of city has no traffic? Try unpausing next time. My turn!

Hm... call it a come back?

I can't believe I made it go the wrong way, so embarssing... but thanks for pointing it out so I can fix it. Also I feel really ignorant here, but how on Earth do you guys get the double heigh dragable pieces? I know there are transistion peces to make them go double heigh but from there how do I get them to drag? Also the low heigh one, I see the starter pieces for them but where are the transition ramps? Am I missing a patch or looking in the wrong area? Thanks for the help, cool builds everyone keep em' up

Hello, I'm not doing anything different than I normal do (at least I think), but every time I click the picture button the page wont work anymore. I can put in the link, but cannot push okay or close it out. I have to refresh the page. Is this a bug or something on my end? I feel silly, I think I just noticed at the bottom you can add pictures directly now >_<

It's always nice when you build something and the a game uses it exactly how you planned, I agree with that. I took an old desgin of mine (it's in the RHW guide in Sc4devotion) and made it higher capacity and smoother. Without decorations so you can see easier. And with decorations, I mean landscaping. Some bonus close ups Good job everyone, and that one of the 405 and 101 is just amazing.

Nice with use of the two level we can now make proper T-Changes, good job.

That stinks worse than a poop with pee on it rubbed with peanut butter on a hot Texas Summer day with no A/C that forgot to bush it's teeth. My turn do me next!

I'm sorry but that got garbled in my head as jibberish and I have no clue what you're talking about with a picture (lol) Also, if it's an "effective" use, I didn't go for that. This interchange is very ineffective with the ammount real world cars it gets and I wanted to copy it the best I could. But if what you suggest will make it look more like the real interchange, I'm all for it. Thanks either way.

Durfsurn, cool what you can make with the new two levels, I haven't fooled around with them just yet. But you gave me an idea. I hardly post I know, just watch and when I barely get time to play I do. I'm like the wind, I pass by only ever so often; but when I do I leave something behind... Who likes bad real world-based interchanges? Keep in mind this is pre-construction (Before 2000) CA 215-60 (Moreno Valley / Riverside County) Not an exact copy, but close?

Depending on what mods you're using... Population: 100,000+ Education: Medium High/High Demand: Co$$ Co$$$ Desirability: Medium High/High Traffic: Yellow, Orange, Red (More traffic the better) That's about it, I do this on most of my cities and don't need Airports and things like that. CAM also helps for the custom buildings I've downloaded to grow properly.

I want Cityscape... it seems to be the direction Simcity(5) needed to go... at least in terms of highways

I like it, looks like a small European docking town.

Lots of green in your city I see, plenty of parks. Looks good.

Nice skin, wouldn't mine using it if it was made to match the 3 lanes. Yes, Maxis highways can look good, and believe it or not, do things RHW can't do, and may never be able to. It depends on area, and preference. I know all my crazy highway systems in LA wouldn't be doable with RHW, without taking up Huge amounts of space, or look ugly. I like both, and use both. I like my Peanut Butter and my Milk it's why I eat Peanut Butter Captain Crunch.

Sure it can be done, and all depends on how accurate you want to get. Simcity4 does have limitations that even with good mods, and lots simply cannot over come. So some traffic networks, and other things have to be compromised, or not built altogether if they're really complex. So yes, but with limits. I gave up on doing that kinda stuff, don't got the patients for one, and the limitations. So I just build cities that greatly resemble their real life counterparts and find it much more fun for me personally (like my Los Angeles) And don't forget to stock up on as much custom content as you can to resemble buildings of the area.

09/03/12 [it's almost my birthday 08/08/12] School, work, some family members passing away (all at once), and other life goodness (sarcasm). Happened that same night as my last post... so after getting life back in order, I am able to return to a semi-normal retinue. Anyway, here are those data views I long since promised. I feel that for the next update might be fair to just post what you all want to see for the long wait. So whatever you want to see, just request it and if I built it... I'll be happy to show it. Here is my Layout of zones for this map, pretty well mixed. Congestion is strong downtown, but not too bad else where... wait that's strange, something is not right. Let's see the volume. Ah-Ha! That's more like it! Traffic on the freeways is very heavy, even around the entire Downtown Loop (and who said they don't work like real life in Simcity). What's funny is as the city was growing, every time i built a new undeveloped area with new roads/highway the traffic went down, but as it developed traffic spiked back up, It wasn't until I ran out of room it started to level off. When Car Pollution, Garbage, and Industrial Pollution combine their powers they Form Captain... Er, Los Angeles... Smog was out of control, bad enough it was downgrading buildings in the Downtown area... With all the money I saved, I did the ordinance. I have all my funding at max for everything and still racked up profit. Though, I should buy more power from Pasadena... I might plop some land marks and bulldoze them just to drain that huge surplus. As always, thanks for the support guys. I'm also working on my youtube channel, it will feature a lot of different things, but when Simcity comes out, it will have a heavy focus on that. What's funny is Los Angeles reminded of Raccoon City, so I wanted to build something Umbrella like. Well couldn't do it in Simcity, so did on Minecraft (lol)

Sorry for the slowness guys, super busy getting Youtube set up, and bringing content on that, with some going to be Simcity stuff as well! So lots of good stuff coming, I'll still be bringing some updates here as well, no worries! But for tonight, it's just some replies, and the updates will come latter today after I have sleep. And I'll get back into the swing of the other CJ's too, but man it's hard, I see a whole front page of all new updates, very hard! but I'll get on em! Stay beautiful people, see you soon (9 hours -ish?)

I cheated, I saw you post this in the other thread already It still looks awesome

Idea! How about a main rail line linking all the major cities? Unless it's been done... also above ground I might add.

Paeng, I thought you're an urban legend. I know of your works, but never seen you as a poster (lol) Also, that looks great, realistic too.

I think the vanilla seaport looks great once it upgrades.
