Oh cool...so I guess maps aren't really a problem. But still, I don't think it would be possible to recreate something like this: http://www.pcgameshardware.de/screenshots/original/2008/12/00_GTA4-Spiel_081221132449.jpg (this one's for GTA players) ...unless there was some SERIOUS KICK ASS modding.

Wouldn't it be cool if we could recreate New York in Cities XL? I mean, in Sim City 4 there were TONS of NYC remakes, so why not do it again in 3D? Well, all it really needs is a nice, big map that can replicate all the five boroughs into one giant city. The street grid would be much easier to create due to the various angles and avenues that are given. So why hasn't anyone done this already? I don't know too much about the game, but there are a few issues: 1) - Not enough peds! Sure, there's alot of cars on the road when traffic is heavy, but the sidewalks are practically lifeless. 2) - There's no subway system...yet. 3) - WE NEED TIMES SQUARE STYLED BUILDINGS! It would be amazing to see buildings with neon lights and ads in Cities XL. 4) - More landmarks. (So far I've seen the Empire State Building, the Chrysler Building, 40 Wall Street, the Statue of Liberty and a few brownstones.) What do you guys think?

yeah, the system is pretty much useless. i have tons of stations and lines all over my city, but my sims prefer to take the bus instead. i only get about 5,000 commuters on the subway, and about 30,000 bus commuters in a population of about 100,000!!!! that sucks. personally, i wish sim city 4 would take you more in depth on creating a realistic subway system and maybe even allow you to design your own stations...

 Pretty cool, kinda reminds me of Dubai. 

Nice shot of the plane. I was thinking of doing that for my new CJ this spring... Keep up the amazing work! 

Woah! Can't wait for the new version of Modernopolis!

As usual, it is "The Different Looks of NYC" that makes me love this game. Great job, I love the way you captured the feel of the city. Grimy, yet amazing!

Cool! Did those buildings really grow naturally? I just plop apartments because it mostly grows into something that doesn't fit with my city. But you did a good job here! (as always). btw, you were on my trixie list too!

This CJ is by far the most accurately correct CJ I've ever seen! Will those piers with the garages be released on the STEX?

Thanks!

Hello fellow Simtropolites! I'm gearing up for my first CJ soon, and I've used a lot of plugins from the STEX. The only problem is that my plugins folder took a lot of virtual memory from my hard drive, and installing BAT is almost virtually impossible. Is there another way that can allow me to see the night lights on custom buildings, or is there a way to download BAT on another folder? I'm not that smart when it comes to technology, but if anyone can please help that would be great.

Cool concept so far. I suppose the city is a play off Liberty City in GTA IV? Nice job.

Which sea walls did you use for the piers? I can't wait to see the final product of NYC, it'll be like looking at a Google Earth recreation, lol.

Pretty good recreation, although I like the NYC CJ better. Will this CJ have a website like your NYC Journals?
