This does not look like PEG's Water Mods. Or was this Photoshopped?

Extremely beautiful night shots. One of the best I have seen. If this was on a brochure or an ad, most people would think these were actual photos of a real life city in Japan and not from a game.

Create a new region. Does it still happen?

Did you make sure you had the correct Terrain Textures? If you are using custom trees did you make sure there are no other tree controllers?

If you have a tree controller then you might have a terrain mod. Did you install any terrain mod, terrain texture, or rock/beach/water mods?

North Korea's Gulags never feature in international news. After reading "Escape from Camp 14", the suffering, horrors, starvation, abuse, rape, and despair are beyond belief. I cannot even imagine that such places even exist. What makes North Korea's Gulags a greater hellhole (minus mass exterminations) than the Nazi concentration camps or Soviet era gulags is that the camp rules are structured so that everyone is pitted against each other in order to survive. Fathers, mothers, and their children spy, steal, and snitch on each other under pain of death, which is unlike Nazi and Soviet concentration camps where prisoners develop mutual trust and help each other out. There is no sense of trust in a North Korean gulag. Concepts like forgiveness and even love are alien concepts. ========================================================================================= http://www.amazon.co...y/dp/0670023329 A New York Times bestseller, the shocking story of one of the few people born in a North Korean political prison to have escaped and survived. North Korea is isolated and hungry, bankrupt and belligerent. It is also armed with nuclear weapons. Between 150,000 and 200,000 people are being held in its political prison camps, which have existed twice as long as Stalin's Soviet gulags and twelve times as long as the Nazi concentration camps. Very few born and raised in these camps have escaped. But Shin Donghyuk did. In Escape from Camp 14, acclaimed journalist Blaine Harden tells the story of Shin Dong-hyuk and through the lens of Shin's life unlocks the secrets of the world's most repressive totalitarian state. Shin knew nothing of civilized existence-he saw his mother as a competitor for food, guards raised him to be a snitch, and he witnessed the execution of his own family. Through Harden's harrowing narrative of Shin's life and remarkable escape, he offers an unequaled inside account of one of the world's darkest nations and a riveting tale of endurance, courage, and survival. ========================================================================================== http://firefliesofho...in-in-geun.html =================================================================================== Some of these prison camps are bigger than Los Angeles.

[quote name='SimCoug' timestamp='1342386960'] Oooh, development! Great pics - I like how you keep every picture tight and close up - makes us want more. What mod adds the white fences(?) to the side of your streets? I've never seen that before. Great update!

Anyone?

It will be hard for North Korea to deny the existence of these camps. They are the size of cities. They are much larger than the Nazi and Stalinist concentration camps and there are a lot of these all over the country if you view it on Google Earth. I am sure Kim Jong Un and everyone in North Korea knows they exist. They are too big to hide and anyone with GoogleEarth can see them. If they didn't North Koreans would have revolted decades ago. The camps keep people in fear. Armed intervention won't work either since a nuclear World War III is very likely.

This is extremely realistic! PS i have been looking for that curved building and the KUMHG ASIANA building (with the green helipad). Did you get them here on STEX?

China wouldn't intervene. It's already a known fact that it has been hunting down North Korean refugees for years. China has been throwing them back to North Korea where the poor souls will be put in a concentration camp, tortured, and executed along with their entire families. It's already the 21st century and this is still happening. http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2004/feb/01/northkorea Revealed: the gas chamber horror of North Korea's gulag A series of shocking personal testimonies is now shedding light on Camp 22 - one of the country's most horrific secrets In the remote north-eastern corner of North Korea, close to the border of Russia and China, is Haengyong. Hidden away in the mountains, this remote town is home to Camp 22 - North Korea's largest concentration camp, where thousands of men, women and children accused of political crimes are held. Now, it is claimed, it is also where thousands die each year and where prison guards stamp on the necks of babies born to prisoners to kill them. Over the past year harrowing first-hand testimonies from North Korean defectors have detailed execution and torture, and now chilling evidence has emerged that the walls of Camp 22 hide an even more evil secret: gas chambers where horrific chemical experiments are conducted on human beings. Witnesses have described watching entire families being put in glass chambers and gassed. They are left to an agonising death while scientists take notes. The allegations offer the most shocking glimpse so far of Kim Jong-il's North Korean regime. Kwon Hyuk, who has changed his name, was the former military attaché at the North Korean Embassy in Beijing. He was also the chief of management at Camp 22. In the BBC's This World documentary, to be broadcast tonight, Hyuk claims he now wants the world to know what is happening. 'I witnessed a whole family being tested on suffocating gas and dying in the gas chamber,' he said. 'The parents, son and and a daughter. The parents were vomiting and dying, but till the very last moment they tried to save kids by doing mouth-to-mouth breathing.' Hyuk has drawn detailed diagrams of the gas chamber he saw. He said: 'The glass chamber is sealed airtight. It is 3.5 metres wide, 3m long and 2.2m high_ [There] is the injection tube going through the unit. Normally, a family sticks together and individual prisoners stand separately around the corners. Scientists observe the entire process from above, through the glass.' He explains how he had believed this treatment was justified. 'At the time I felt that they thoroughly deserved such a death. Because all of us were led to believe that all the bad things that were happening to North Korea were their fault; that we were poor, divided and not making progress as a country. 'It would be a total lie for me to say I feel sympathetic about the children dying such a painful death. Under the society and the regime I was in at the time, I only felt that they were the enemies. So I felt no sympathy or pity for them at all.' His testimony is backed up by Soon Ok-lee, who was imprisoned for seven years. 'An officer ordered me to select 50 healthy female prisoners,' she said. 'One of the guards handed me a basket full of soaked cabbage, told me not to eat it but to give it to the 50 women. I gave them out and heard a scream from those who had eaten them. They were all screaming and vomiting blood. All who ate the cabbage leaves started violently vomiting blood and screaming with pain. It was hell. In less than 20 minutes they were quite dead.' Defectors have smuggled out documents that appear to reveal how methodical the chemical experiments were. One stamped 'top secret' and 'transfer letter' is dated February 2002. The name of the victim was Lin Hun-hwa. He was 39. The text reads: 'The above person is transferred from ... camp number 22 for the purpose of human experimentation of liquid gas for chemical weapons.' Kim Sang-hun, a North Korean human rights worker, says the document is genuine. He said: 'It carries a North Korean format, the quality of paper is North Korean and it has an official stamp of agencies involved with this human experimentation. A stamp they cannot deny. And it carries names of the victim and where and why and how these people were experimented [on].' The number of prisoners held in the North Korean gulag is not known: one estimate is 200,000, held in 12 or more centres. Camp 22 is thought to hold 50,000. Most are imprisoned because their relatives are believed to be critical of the regime. Many are Christians, a religion believed by Kim Jong-il to be one of the greatest threats to his power. According to the dictator, not only is a suspected dissident arrested but also three generations of his family are imprisoned, to root out the bad blood and seed of dissent. With North Korea trying to win concessions in return for axing its nuclear programme, campaigners want human rights to be a part of any deal. Richard Spring, Tory foreign affairs spokesman, is pushing for a House of Commons debate on human rights in North Korea. 'The situation is absolutely horrific,' Spring said. 'It is totally unacceptable by any norms of civilised society. It makes it even more urgent to convince the North Koreans that procuring weapons of mass destruction must end, not only for the security of the region but for the good of their own population.' Mervyn Thomas, chief executive of Christian Solidarity Worldwide, said: 'For too long the horrendous suffering of the people of North Korea, especially those imprisoned in unspeakably barbaric prison camps, has been met with silence ... It is imperative that the international community does not continue to turn a blind eye to these atrocities which should weigh heavily on the world's conscience.' ========================================================================== from freekorea.us: What a gigantic concentration camp! Easily dwarfs Auswitz.

Unfortuately the building that grows on a lot is just demand stage + pure luck. But if you are tired of seeing maxis buildings and have a lot of cutom content use this mod: Maxis Blocker:

Sir, you deserve a medal.

Sir you are a genius.

Amazing job. Where did you get that temple? Did you BAT it?

WARNING: The city you are loading refers to the following plugin packs which aren't available on your machine. You can continue the game in the absence of these packs, but, some of the graphics and other information may be incorrect. Plugin Pack - 752101413 Odd. I haven't downloaded anything recently and I have no missing dependencies or anything like that. (I have a lot of dependencies). In fact I ALWAYS test my game after putting in anything new. I haven't made any recent changes to this city either. This message came up when I loaded this city. Any known causes?

What? ??? I didn't delete it. Something strange happened. The plugin itself disappeared. Good thing I do have backups for my cities. However, I have only had strange problems like this with SimCity 4. The loading script for this program is full of bugs.

Probably. But I wonder why it only appeared now. EDIT: SOLVED. I found the building that caused the problem. I don't know how it happened but it was deleted from my plugins folder. I don't know why. Really strange.

Looks so realistic. What's the name of that building with the tennis courts and soccer field? Is that a school?

What Rock Mod are you using?

Don't forget the value of adding parks. I notice you don't have many parks. After several tests to my old cities, parks GREATLY increase the chance of getting Stage 8 buildings. An old rundown district suddenly rebuilds itself once many parks are added. Use the ingame parks or download the parks on sc4devotion (needs registration). I recommend the BLS and BSC parks. https://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/

Beautiful train station. What's it called?
