  1. SimCity 4 turns 15!

    schokoladeneis 1 replied to Supernia's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion

    The first time I played simcity4 I was not that impressed and stopped playing it after a few days. Some years later (I guess 2006 or 2007) I found out that there are people who create custom buildings for this game. Not sure if I found Simtropolis or CimCityKurier first. I dowloaded for hours hunderts of lots and bats. I created a plugins folder, copied everything I dowloaded into it and started the game. Just to get the realization that all custom houses that grew were brown boxes. I missed the rush hour / deluxe addon The next day I went to buy SC4 Deluxe. I remember frequently waking up really early in the morning, hours before I had to go to school to play SC4. I can't believe it. I am not a morning person! Happy Birthday SC4! And a big thanks for all players enyoing this game and a huge thanks to all creators of this awesome custom content! Without you SC4 would'nt be that great.

    Actually there are some bikes for C:S already made. You have to search for "bicycle" in the workshop.
  3. Cities with a lot of car infrastructure usually have bad traffic. If a city builds more roads people will tend to use their cars more, resulting in a lot of traffic jams. In real life planners realised it's better to take away space (lanes and parking) from motorised private transport. And give it to public transport, pedestrians and cyclist instead. Same can be applied to your city by using bus and cycle lanes/streets and add some pedestrian bridges.

    Are we there yet? -No! And now??
  5. i hate this building so much! Everytime I pass this monstrosity I wonder if the architect is aware of his responibility to design something that fits into its surroundings. A building is something which will last a long time. You can make a big impact. This looks like Albert Speers (Hitlers architect) wet dream. Very fitting for a shady secret service but an eyesore for berlin. By the way, @AmiPolizeiFunk. I like that you mod this building into the game. I will place it in my city. <- this kitty-emoticon stands for evil laughter. ;-)
  6. Perhaps you can use a similar method like @Ronyx69 with his new dock assets?
  7. I like your roads @Bad Peanut because they're realistic and often found in cities around the world. They would be a nice addition to the game. On the other hand they are pretty dangerous for cyclist and i hope all real life examples will be replaced in the next years.
  8. Obviously I sometimes don't pay enough attention. here is an update:
  9. This street layout would be nice. In the center there're shared tram and car lines. Then there're parking lanes which get removed for turning lanes, bike racks or station shelters if necessary. The bikelanes are protected by obstacles to prevent dooring accidents and wild parking. I hope this would be possibe because right now there is a lack of streets combining tramlines, bikelanes and/or trees in cities skylines.

    Here is another example. https://www.google.de/maps/@52.5252273,13.4997745,3a,75y,1.8h,91.45t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sDvw0CO-eMVFCkYq4nlkZQw!2e0!7i13312!8i6656 Cars have to wait while the tram is at the stop. Most of small roads with tram tracks in Berlin use this type of stop.

  11. Ancient Ruins - Pt. II

    schokoladeneis 1 commented on korver's City Journal Entry in True Earth

    Just today I told somebody about the ancient city of petra and how beautiful it is. You've made a very nice looking recreation but the location of the "al-siq"-cutting is not on the right place. I wish I could visit petra again but it's very expensive now because they want to preserve it therefor limiting the number of visitors. Incredible work as always!

    One thing I can say is that I use his newly added small and wide streets with bike paths a lot. It would be nice if you, andreharv, decide to add roads like this. Another bug I have with his streets is that it's sometimes impossible to change the road direction if road anarchy is activated. Instead it creates another weirdly twisted road on top of the other. The missing of the icons is not a big problemfor me.
  13. The Technical University of Berlin has a big collection of illustrations and floor plans of many historical buildings. They have 600 entrys for the Reichtagsgebäude. Not all are correct because architects did several competitions. http://architekturmuseum.ub.tu-berlin.de/index.php?p=51&SID=14957953341471&done=0

    Yesterday I changed the update settings of cs to "update this game only at start". And before I start the game. I activate the offline mode for steam.

    schokoladeneis 1 replied to andreharv's topic in Cities: Skylines Modding - Open Discussion

    Even if 3-tile streets are impractical for cities skylines, would it be possible to add these street configurations with wide sidewalks? As 4-tile streets? A lot of the streets we already have ingame have very narrow sidewalks in comparison to RL.

    "(...) and put it all together (...)" will it be one big asset or is the powerplant modular?

  21. released Cities: Skylines - "Mass Transit" Disucssion

    schokoladeneis 1 replied to Tim The Terrible's topic in Cities: Skylines General Discussion

    If you think this video was bad you have to watch the "natural disasters" dlc video. It was even worse. The host weren't prepared at all. cKnoor, the guy at the right is not really interested in this game. They did not know how the new disasters worked. And the city was always zoomed out. In the comments a lot of viewers criticized the video but as we can see they improved not a lot since then.

    @AmiPolizeiFunk I think from the pictures you posted it's difficult to see how big the cobblestones are. Each stone is about 6x6x6 cm big. Maybe it's good to post an additional picture with something to compare the scale. @Ronyx69 Nice progress on the applestore. Incredible how this game can produce these high-res scenes with good assets. On my computer everything looks like slurry.

  23. Communist Games

    schokoladeneis 1 replied to Stellaris88's topic in Strategy Games

    yes thats right. The opposite is kind of the case. Marx says communism is the final stage of socialism resulting in a free/equitable society for mankind. So if you seek a game there you can build a communist utopia? I have no clue if anyone made a game like this.

  24. Communist Games

    schokoladeneis 1 replied to Stellaris88's topic in Strategy Games

    Sorry to doublepost. To answer your question. But in most of the games you won't build anything. Tropico Games (you obviosly know that already) Democracy 3 (not a city builder, more a complex simulation with a lot of graphs and analytical statistics. Take a look at the website) The Command and Conquer franchise (real time strategy battle game) Republic: The Revolution (strategy/simulation. Your goal is to overthrow the socialist goverment) Tom Clancys Politika The Civilisation franchise (little bit building involved. You can pass social policies)

  25. Communist Games

    schokoladeneis 1 replied to Stellaris88's topic in Strategy Games

    CorinaMarie already told you not to create a lot of threads with a simmilar topic. Now you're asking in one thread for "communist games" and in another for "cold-war games". A few days ago you asked for dystopian/autoritarian city building games. Please don't create that much topics. We are not playing the "who-created-the-most-topics-game" on ST. One serious thread should be enough. Thank you!
