Hi all, I've tried searching the forums etc for an answer but to no avail-- or--is it even possible for the ReShade program to work with SC4? If anyone has tried it, what would be the correct installation path for ReShade?

The train tour is !!

Great ambient music-- fits into the game beautifully (in fact I'm listening to it as I type this post). After viewing a bit of the video and looking at your screenshots, I am wondering if terraforming a little bit in the tiles you use as cities would add to the scenic possibilities and visually incorporate each city into the region as a whole. It could show off what vanilla can really do graphically-- which is quite a lot! I play with a ton of mods but I find your concept exciting and look forward to seeing how your project develops. EDIT: Oh also it's great to see just the default Maxis buildings-- modders take buildings to the next level but I kinda think the default building textures/props don't get enough credit.

So good, as usual!! Would love to see your interpretation of Philly!

ooh-- I hadn't been aware. Thanks youngwii and rsc204!

Adding onto this, specifically regarding curves and SAM-- would love to see the SAM textures incorporated into the wide radius curves for streets. Ah, and @Tarkus et al--incredible work on the NAM in general btw.

For sure re: improvements of the slope mod-- thanks for the suggestion of it! I think it was extra quirky because of the steep hills etc I use but on the flipside, it forces me to think more about road and rail work.

Late to the party but what Matias and Corina said. Additionally, I've found putting functional parking lots next to various stations in residential areas allows you to space them out further. Using the route query and query tools help also to see if they're too close/too far e.g. your large capacity bus stop has only three sims using it because there's another bus station down the block.

Thanks, James. Yeah, I'd thought about splitting up the bottom one but got lazy I scrapped the old region because I installed the BRF slope mod for my roads and it messed up some pre-existing layout -- but the mod itself is too good not to use so I decided to create a new region, complete with absurd backstory

What a great looking town! Frank seems like he's quite the real estate mogul. Great mmp work again

Beagleland was destroyed when Lord Hoagie's ego exploded. The surviving sims sailed across the Beggin' Sea and founded Houndsylvania. They foolishly elected (Lord) Hoagie E. Mellon as the first mayor of Bituminous Bassetboro. The town proper sits halfway up Mount Kibble. Water Bowl Lake and the Rabbit Scent Trail combine to form a national park in Houndsylvania. There are bituminous coal mines that are the town's main employer (all owned by Baron Hoagie E. Mellon). Baron Hoagie swears neither the mines nor ores are the town's namesakes. Sims wonder, however. Thanks to Water Bowl Lake, Bituminous Bassetboro hosts a water tower, despite its tiny population size. On the west side of town, Rabbit Scent Trail begins. Water Bowl Lake: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I tried to kind of recreate a small mining town for the general look of this entry. Mods include LK Appalachian terrain, SHK Brigandine 2.0 Water Mod and HD Rock Mod, NAM, Peg's ponds, mmps. BATs by Matt325, Simmer2, Simgoober, Paeng, BSC Newman Mine, lots of mmps by giraffe, peg, simmer2, murimk, NBVC----------- so thanks to these modders x10000 Thanks for visiting my CJ

The MMP bug is highly contagious I love the look of the little lakes and inlets: it reminds me of the Adirondacks in upstate NY.

I like the layout of your roads, rails, and tram pieces: it feels really organic. Great work!
