New Year's Entry -- Mount Hefnall
The British Sausage posted a City Journal entry in My SC4 CJ Scrapbook
New Year's Entry -- Mount Hefnall Welcome to 2021! For this entry I present a combination of old and new pictures from both Hefnall Forest and Mount Hefnall itself. The next entry will be in a different area of Cindersville but I really wanted to show how Mount Hefnall connects to the nearby areas and to Cindersville itself. With that said, goodbye 2020 and hello to some more SC4 goodiness! {---} 1. 2. A square mosaic I cobbled together about two weeks ago. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Mount Hefnall casts it shadow on Cindersville. 8. Mount Hefnall extends westwards thanks to it's L-shaped ridge. 9. From south to north. 10. From west to east. 11. The scree-strewn top of Mount Hefnall 12. 13. Mount Hefnall's eastern slopes. 14. Had to upload this square mosaic on Imgur because Imageshack wouldn't accept it! 15. {---} For the next several months I'll be posting one entry per week due to revising for the last of my accountancy course exams. Sometimes there will be two entries in a week if I have holiday time. Aside from that, have a great year everyone! For the next entry it'll be an end to the scenes of forests and mountains, instead it'll be back to suburbs and roads. Next weekend I'll be showing you Awnsale, the area west of Cindersville's city centre.- 8 Comments

Replies: Vigilante1987: Thanks for that! Recreating fractionally angled areas is a nightmare! But Madison Square Garden was done justice- I found the BATs and I drew out the layout to get it right! nycsc4: That large building is one of Seraf's NYC buildings- NYBT Hotel Pennsylvania. One of his best! Prophet42: Thank you- Manhattan looks predominantly art deco with modern architecture (post 1940s) creeping in. I know how to capture that in cities so it was fun sprinkling the newer buildings with all that art deco available on the STEX! PaPa-J: Thanks! The whole point was to create a smaller scale New York, kind of like GTA IV! metarvo: Often it's about combining filler sets together: in this case JENX's paris river walls with SFBT's highway fillers. mrsmartman: Cheers! I even drew a rough map sketching out the position of the Manhattan landmarks and their distance to each other, I also went over several different pictures showing the transition between Lower Manhattan and Midtown Manhattan- all to help me out. {---} Entry 60 -- Plants and Rocks It's a small entry but another update on Cindersville. I've found some useful MMP combinations for scree slopes, boulder fields and undergrowth for coniferous forests. Enjoy! {---} 1. It's been about three months since I last truly played SimCity 4. I came back to after having worked out some MMP combinations to spruce up the undergrowth of the coniferous forest, add ferns and create scree slopes, boulder fields and rocky debris. 2. All of this to liven up the landscape and provide some sorely added details to the blank terrain. 3. Expect to see more of these rocky mountain paths! 4. Sometimes its best to let the terrain textures do all the talking- while sprucing up the forest's undergrowth. 5. Another look at that rocky path. 6. A village close to the areas we have been looking at. 7. And the whole thing in perspective.
