Thank you Schulmanator!!! I am very far from coming even close to your fine work, but this is the most fun I ever had learning a game!!! :)

Thank you sarthakknight! No, I never considered using photoshop, but seems like something interesting to do. Thank you very much for the feedback. And yes, those anti-grids are easy to do with low pop, but I can't imagine it will be that easy when creating a very big metropolis! :)

Thank you LnX. Yes, I do enjoy creating things that may be a bit odd, out of the ordinary with lots of variety...lol

juliok92012 - Thank you! The fishing spot was fun to do.   Jorge - Your comment is much appreciated Jorge :)

Konstantinll - Thanks!   jmsepe: Glad you like it! Coming from you, I know that I must have done a good job since you, as you stated in the past, don't do much nature scene! Thanks!   This region might be hard to do since my goal is to not use any ploppable buildings and remain within budget. With Amshin, I have achieve that goal...Let us hope the other cities will cooperate as well! lol

Tonyr: Thank you very much!   47ply: Glad you like it ply, you are, after all, my "nature guy" inspiration!!! lol   Titanicbuff: Glad to hear you like it!

Looking forward to it! and that temple..awesome!

Lovely work! It is very pleasant to see the variety of buildings you have...great job!

Congratulations to you both!! It is well deserved!

Looks amazing..looking forward to your future updates. I haven't started using RHW puzzle pieces, but looking at your highways and interchanges is certainly a huge motivator! And good luck at school!

T Thank you A Noony Moose, I will definitely look into that tool as well!

As always, amazing entry Lnx. I am looking forward to your night entry and your next update.

Amazing pictures from everyone!!! 47ply - you are my guru...it is a pure enjoyment to look at your work! Jmsepe - awesome pictures (and if you government needs money, let me know..lol...let your people call my people..lol) Lnx - stunning. I always enjoyed looking at your journals. Dogma555 - that cathedral in the first picture....amazing. I am a nature scene type of person and I can image creating something really special around that cathedral! Also, I love the variety of your buildings.

Love your work Jorge. Well organized, clean, trees, etc...nice work! Looking forward to see more of your work!

Sabretooth78 - Thank you so much for the information. Depending on the DatPacking options you choose, it should be able to cut 5% or so off your folder size (on top of the savings inherent to loading fewer files). It's also worth noting that depending on how you've structured your plugins folder, pay attention to your load order - I've noticed that wouanagaine's Sc4DatPacker seems to follow a slightly different order than the game itself. In particular, I discovered that whereas I believe it has been noted that files/folders prefaced "_" will load after "z" in the game, in DatPacker they get packed first. Little things you discover... Personally I prefer to preface things with numbers - which is fine as long as you don't fall into the Windows idiocy of the 1, 10, 100, 2, 3, 4, ... numerical order. I'm guessing it's because you're running a fairly light installation. I see a marked difference between initial vs. subsequent, and I'm running what should be for all intents and purposes (as far as SC4 sees it) essentially the same platform as yours. Sabretooth78 - Thank you so much for this information. I am very nervous using such tools since I am not the most computer-savvy person on the planet.lol. I will make sure to avoid my z_files. My plugin folder is mostly arranged by creators, except for BSC, Pegprod, VIP, etc, to which I let it download with their default (me no touchy those lol) dogma555 - that is insane! but I love the wine/liquor routine..lol

love your work! Realistic looking city. For sure, you should use a hosting site so we can get larger pictures from you!!!! I use Imgur..very easy to use, free, etc...

this is a lovely picture...Love the bridge!

Mine is about 1.15GB - 1,801 files, 518 folders. I still have to load (when I will need it) files for creating seaports. I will probably also ad additional buildings for more variety within my regions. I just recently attempted to understand how and what to datpack..Did a test on 2 folders and I was successful. Now, just need to learn to datpack buildings and I should be able to maintain a reasonable size plugin folder. At this time, it takes about 35-40 sec for a region to load. I am assuming it will be longer once the city reaches over 1M sims...

we can tell a lot of work went into this...very nice and inspiring.

Successful creation of a non-grid city! Beautifully done.

Nicely done and very impressive.

yessssss!! awesome..looking forward to ad this building in my cities. You are very talented!

Looks amazing...hope it will not just be a CAM building... Compdude: if this is your first real try at MMP, I am afraid to see when you have more experience...you picture is awesome and feels very real. Nice work.

Thank you gentlemen...I have finally downloaded a new plugin and started a new region. I do hope to have a new Amshin in the near future. :)
