  1. Fill in the Blanks

    Looking Great! I love how the Sunken Railway is progressing, anyway... With the Plaza you could use some of these diagonal parks by mas71 (3rd Thing Down) to get rid of that awful avenue grass and there seasonal too. For the Sunken Highway dividers I'd use the Marrast (2nd Thing Down) ones, I think they'd match you're city well. With the rest of the city it looks like you've got some blackened buildings so there gonna need to be re-plopped and last of all I recommend that you fill out you're downtown with some Hanson784 and Jaconcw mid rise buildings.
  2. NDEX SR 76 Financial Center

    It's great to see some of thses old style NDEX buildings back! Keep it up
  3. AMSTERDAM

    Woah those pictures are nice! Keep this one up! Only one thing I noticed was that you're canals ended straight onto the roads without using the bridge pieces.
  4. Can't wait Bixel and Simfox! Really want to try out some of these BAT's!
  5. Shmails GLR Avenue Station 1

    Wow, I've wanted this for ages! Thanks
  6. Fill in the Blanks

    Great updates, Thanks for putting in the railways! With the city hall I like the current one because its textures blend into the park very nicely and it just looks good
  7. New York City Hall

    Wow, finally something worth downloading!
  8. Candyland

    Wow, never seen that before! Nice job with the past few mosaics and you're region is looking good.
  9. Fill in the Blanks

    Wow, this is a fantastic idea for a CJ! I'll be following this one for sure Anyway, I agree with JoystickJunkie, how about you get one of Ill Tonkso's huge rail stations and build an extensive rail network to connect all parts of you're downtown. Maybe you could even make a sunken one, like if you've ever seen sunken hi-way but it looks great with rail. Also I'd add some nice custom trees to that terracotta plaza thing. And one last thing I really like those two Maxis R$$$ buildings by the stadium, add more of those sort of buildings for sure.
  10. I thought that was a photo until I saw the un-finished base! The blue background...wow. Anyway the latest update, just like everything else on this thread is too fantastic for words.
  11. Stop garbage on STEX

    Oh yea, I just saw this posted on his first spam upload for today. STEX Moderator Voar Tok Replied: July 18, 2007 02:05 AMOK, I'm going to at least lock this for the time being an probably delete it soon.quote>
  12. Stop garbage on STEX

    Yea, there's a lot of spam being uploaded at the moment and it probably should be deleted, but did you really need to make a new thread about this?
  13. :Australia:

    It's not looking too bad but there's still the problem with the bumpy terrain. Looks like you pretty much nailed the CBD though.I'd really try to use sea walls for urban areas like Adeliade or at least line the rivers with trees.
  14. flame1396's Eyecandy CJ

    Looking pretty good! I like you're city center and those sunked hi-way's never fail to impress!
  15. New York City

    Wow, so realistic although the buildings are a little blured (I know it's because of the game and that's why I don't use that zoom for my CJ's)
  16. Is it really that Added Turn Lane

    Sorry man but the textures just look bad. Nice idea though
  17. Hong Kong

    Sorry for the lack of updates over the past few weeks, been working on new areas of Hong Kong from all over the place, anyway here are the first stages of Lamma Island, A medium sized island just south of Hong Kong Island (About a 20 minute ferry trip). One of the major futures of the Island is these 3 god awful massive looking smoke stacks that poke out from the northern part of the Island. They're part of a massive coal fired power plant however the island strangely isn't that polluted at all, probably because of all the mostly in-tact rain forest that surrounds the island. Here's some pic's of my re-creation and the town on the island will follow in the next update and be warned it's the side of Hong Kong that's not 30 stories high! I'm real happy with the way this power plant turned out too, realistic down to the building by using Google Earth. Here's an overview of the complex, I'm not sure but it was probably built on re-claimed land. There's currently construction going on one of the little islands.

  18. HRP Headquarters

    It's not too bad but you could use better textures and a more interesting shape next time.
  19. The Capital of the World!

    For the capital of the World I'd have to say London, just because historically it was so important. That would really upset the french though...
  20. ACE Airport Pack

    Wow, that last picture is just too cool! Amazingly realistic, I can really only say one thing...
  21. Can't Find It? Ask Here!

    Hey everybody! I'm starting an airport for my CJ soon and I was wondering if anybody could give me a link to these airport terminal pieces (I have the Ace ones all ready, just need the blue terminal things). Thanks! By the way, FissileBread, The first BAT that you wan't isn't on the STEX, it's on one of the Japanese sites. I have it but I'm not sure were I got it from (I looked for you but I couldn't find it again) Anyway have a look arround some of these japanese sites and you should be able to find it!
  22. Woah! This CJ is fantastic, I've never seen anything like this! You're eyecandy is amazing and that airport is stunning, most of it doesn't look like it's from SC4. And best of all is you're photoshoping, some of the best I've ever seen on Simtropolis. Keep it up man, I can tell you really put a lot of effort into making something like this!
  23. Rate one image.

    Lifetec: Looks like a nice enough little town , easy to make though 7/10 mencc1701: A little plain SC4 never hurts, I like those trees too 8/10 tomdaopm: Awesome looking downtown, very realistic but I hate that photo effect sorry. Would have been a 9 but the effect brings it to a 6.5/10 Surferb0i8o8: Same as what I said to tomdapom. 7/10 hijodecordoba: Some of the buildings look out of place but you're getting better! 7.5/10 Shingure: I really like those photo effects, the bright little dots for cars and lights is fantastic 9/10 TheSixCents: Is that even Sim City!? Great job with this 9.5/10 From my CJ but I've fixed the night lights in photoshop that the game cut out on IFC2, The Center and Central Plaza.
  24. CITIES

    Wow, this is eyecandy at it's best for sure! Fantastic job, I'm just in awe of what you're doing here, it's almost like the perfect CJ and we're only on page 3! I'll be waiting for August.
  25. Cheeta on steroids?

    I think you have clicked the 'Variable automata speed' box in the graphics section (Which changes the speed of some of the visual effects to go with the simulation speed). You could have the best computer in the world and if you didn't have this on things would still move a realistic pace. Ouh, and welcome to Simtropolis by the way, I see this is you're first post.
