Not sure if this has been posted before but thought why not I'll post it up. Anyway tell us your hobbies besides city builders and the forums. Really curious to see what everyone on here is into since id regard this community quite highly as a intelligent creative group. I'll get the ball rolling... My main hobby besides gaming and city builders which in the grand scheme of my life takes the backseat is Cars. I own 2 Subaru Legacies and I love modifying and trying all sorts of different setups, my first car is also the first car I've properly built I would list all the specs and stats about it but since this is a city building forum not a subaru forum ill just keep it short and sweet. This is my 1998 Legacy RS (Jap spec) bought it as my first car in 2014 is ej20R twin turbo factory have since single turbo converted it, blew up the engine, fitted STi heads, forged it rebuilt it and redone nearly everything in the engine bay. Currently saving for a tune to extract more power out of the current setup. few pictures of the car engine bay next to my mates audi A4 This is my second car a 1991 legacy Brighton awd when im not in the workvan im running about in this. its a gutless single cam auto but ive given it a good polish and lowered it and I think it really looks the part. Ive got plenty of other photos on my imgur if anyones interested https://westy177.imgur.com/all/ Thats my long spiel over cant wait to see what hobbies people have out there. Cheers

So I made this region originally in 2013 when I was still in high school, finished all that and began real life and got thoroughly into my Cars so SimCity and gaming and general was hard on the backburner. However I was rather bored last weekend and decided to boot up SimCity 4 again and just resume building this region, I was honestly amazed at what my 15 year old self had built back in the day I used to give myself a hard time about not making cities good enough and I still do that to this day with my project cars. Anyway I just kept building and building almost had the second metropolitan tile t'd up ready to build the downtown zone when I noticed a blank lot that was zoned and built. After a bit of research I found out that in such a early stage of this regions life I had already struck Prop-plox I dont know why or how my computers more than strong enough for SimCity 4 and I dont even have the PEG file that supposedly causes the issue. So ill start a new region by all means reccomend some region maps for me below. But before I bin this region I thought id share some of my work. PS: sorry about the 4;3 screenshots haha Firstly this is the Queenschurch metro area. Where the PROP PLOX struck first Overview of the suburbs Night time The central park close up Stadium and small business district RHW interchange excuse the grid haha Parklands Now to twin coasts region the first city i built on this region back in 2013 Interchange onto the island Overview of the city The burbs and uni CBD Beach Nice little parkland Thats all for now I will continue this journal on the new region. Wish me luck to stay motivated

Share your Hobbies (besides city building games )

thats awesome I like taking photos and videos of my cars, also a big fan of timelapsing stuff, hard to find time for all of it since I work so much haha. I love music everyone does editing and producing is a different beast, thats awesome I wouldn't know where to start which is pretty halarious since my old mans a music teacher and professional pianist -
As it says in the title recently lost a region to PROP-POX and im looking to delete all of my pegasus stuff. Looking for a alternative waterfront development mod to pegasus, I know it easy to just tap away and search up in the STEX but I thought it would be easier to ask here. Pretty guttered as the peg lots are really good but id rather live a stress free life building knowing there gone. Cheers team

it actually did occur on my large suburb tile got 75 percent developed and boom entire apartments on housing lots vanished cars trees everything. im at the crucial point in my new region where i can delete corrupting plugins as i havent zoned yet. wouldnt know how to go about finding the culprits. still have the infected region on hand for research purposes.

Yeah I realised after this post that what I should do instead is keep them because they look damn good really set off my last region, and just backup saves regularly.

Harrington SC4 Entry 6: Hard to Port!
westy177 commented on 89James89's City Journal Entry in Harrington (A natural growth SC4 CJ)
Looks really good, looks extremely authentic with the dirt streets and perfectly plopped architecture. Taken in some inspiration for my own rural scenes if I manage to get that far out from the downtown on my region haha. Followed- 3 Comments

A 2.5GT wagon nice you'll have the mad turbo engine and all the practicality as well. I guess that's why wagons are so popular you can fit the family plus all the holiday gear and stuff and still have a fast good handling fun time. As opposed to driving a minivan haha.

My 1998 Subaru Legacy RS-B Currently at 230,000 Kilometers or 142k miles. This is my first car, saving up for it was a long and arduous road. I almost threw in the towel and bought a beater corolla like every one else, but I'm glad I didn't definitely worth the saving up. It's powered by an EJ20R 2.0l flat 4 twin turbo and like all subies is AWD making it easy to drive but very fast at the same time, buried the japanese 180km speedo a few times on the quiet country roads anyway a few pics: Previous owner installed a few goodies like this 3" catback exhaust o it sounds pretty damn nice

What are you eating and drinking while browsing the forum?

NICE!!! This is my first car (280Hp turbo lel) loving every minute of driving it. In the month I've had it it's already cost me half the price I paid for it haha. Previous owner traded it in with a worn out clutch, took the opportunity to get an exedy heavy duty installed. What subies have you owned? Would love me a 98 GC8 WRX STi Type r ( the JDM coupe )

Same old icons etc, different Nissan's or Nissan this time. Plus the resolution is wonky since my laptop screen smashed when I took it to school one day. Meaning i had to use an old 4:3 monitor.
