  1. Yep me too, had to break out the old Safari
  2. Show us your Downtown/CBD

    Downtown of my second city. Not too much sprawl yet, focussing on downtown mainly.
  3. Show us your Area view

    That is beautiful zdza! It's a shame the cap limit won't let you build further. Hope modders will solve it soon. Is that a sunken highway I see around downtown? Or does it just look like it? Here's my 2nd city. Started as something temporary to play with waiting for the custom assets to become available in my main city, but it turned out alright so far. Only about 40.000 people.

    I completely agree
  5. Feindbolds Buildings

    These are all breathtaking Feinbold, keep up the amazing work!
  6. Show us your Downtown/CBD

    And there's people who say grids are ugly. Amazing city man! Love how you break up the grid in a realistic way.
  7. Show us your Area view

    Thanks waiyeap90! I posted a few closer screenshots in the "show us your CBD" thread. Will try to make some more when I continue with this city, but for now I'm holding off on playing CSL for a bit as steam workshop buildings don't show up in-game (apparent Mac issue). The 1.0.7b beta patch I'm running now solved that issue, but makes all custom building disappear after reloading the city. So yeah, not much point at the moment. More to come in the future though
  8. Show us your Area view

    Thanks Zalym! I honestly notice little difference between 1 tile and 25 tiles. The game wasn't amazingly smooth for me when the city was new and it still isn't. Though like kdavis27 said, somehow the bigger your city gets, the less difference is in the speed settings, which seems pretty odd.
  9. Show us your Downtown/CBD

    Thanks jesper! It's called "high interest tower", I believe it's a standard building in the unique buildings menu.

    Downtown has grown a little:
  11. Show us your Area view

    Overview of my first (and so far only) city. I want to start a new city but I keep coming back to this one ~80.000 people, thankfully no traffic issues at all. All 25 tiles unlocked. Pretty much all tiles are used, but not completely filled:
  12. Missing thumbnails

    Same here. Hope they'll update to show the previews instead.
  13. Yes, yes, yes!! I'm having the same problem and I can't imagine anyone else not finding this an issue. They should be able to display the screencaptures in the menus.
  14. Maarten is right about not planning too much. My CBD evolved from the first built blocks actually. And not building your CBD too big also helps. Flow is important.

    Beautiful roads zimmie! Seeing all these great screenshots makes me excited about more building variation once the modders get going Its hard to avoid repetition at the moment
  16. Show us your Downtown/CBD

    Thanks very much! Though so far I've only been expanding on my first city ever in CSL, with all the problems involved haha (traffic is evil right now as I grow more). I'm sure a new city with some more CSL experience will be better. Same here! I think I was last active back in 2009 or so. I really like the low-saturation look, will try to find that download. The LUT's do a lot for making the game look better/different. I'm currently using one called "Blockbuster" seen in my screenshots above.
  17. Show us your Downtown/CBD

    Here's another view of downtown, but with some more sprawl (population 75000):

    Thanks @_B Great looking city Psycho Teddy. I need to expand on my sprawl I wish the industry zoning would spawn some warehouses and cleaner industry like it did in SC4 and like you could plop in CXL closer to downtown. Currently, even with a highly educated city industry only spawns dirty brown factories. I'm not sure if that's even a thing in CSL though or if industry zoning is always very dirty. Some compact highways would also be grand for downtowns.
  19. Was taking minutes to load for me too. Not sure if it actually froze, but I gave up trying to load.
  20. Thanks Azurespecter my mouse will be very pleased. Just thought of another, while taking shots of my city center; compact highways! It'll make more sense in the dense areas of the cities than 2 separate roads for each direction.
  21. Show us your Downtown/CBD

    This is the CBD of my first (and so far only) CSL city:
  22. C:SL Scale Seems Natural

    Interestingly enough I feel kind of like the opposite. While I managed to make cities that felt really sprawling in SC4, even a 9-tile city in CSL feels pretty compact with the center taking up the middle tile and only 1 tile on every side for suburbs. I've installed and turned on the 25 tile mod, but I don't see how to use it (yet). That'll probably solve it.
  23. Only thing I can think of right now that I miss badly enough to ask for and not just wait and see is a random tree brush. Man I've spent ages already plopping trees one by one
