It was an outstanding OSITM month, Benoit, as you know I love mediterranean landscapes, and yours in particular, are just perfect.
Excellent teaser, in HD especially, well played my friend 

[Kergelen]

Amazing teaser!

I like the small square with parked cars, something very common in RL villages.

Arthur, nbvc, io_bg, Dantes, ThomasK, Ernst, Robin, Yann, Kergelen; Thanks a lot for your comments !

ThomasK : Its a mix, but mostly grow. For Generone, I plopped the CDB and some W2W corners. Grow : W2W R & C, R Blocks, Inustry and low density C. (This is also a first shot, I did not buldoze any building in Generone, guess I'm lucky with that )

Update 31 - El Paraiso

Lets have a closer look at this small town ! Not much time to play these days, so the big and full update is coming later ! Pictures are in HD; try it, worth it !

Thanks to Yann for his cleverness, Namspopof, Supremec & R6 for the models, and the VIP team for the MMPs

Excellent pictures, the town square looks perfect.

By the looks of it, I saw a couple of cars that aren't in the VIP Car Pack, is there another MMP pack released, or are they just props?

First: a happy new year to You,
and second: i have no words for this, i´m completely shocked and lucky that my chair is stable and safe for situations like this.
Can You tell me what game You play?

I just love it!
Excelent!!

[noahclem]

Lovely view again! 

I really like the new areas and look forward to more when you get time 

But.... I think I'll avoid the cloister    Perhaps you could find me a new home? 

[dmonsta19]

Simply stunning, as always, Benoit. I can't wait to see the rest of it

This MD has been so inspiring, I just wanted to say thanks for such beauty 

[nbvc]

Fantastic work with this small town.

[ThomasK]

Absolutely remarkable - lovely town. Your region shots, wider overviews and close-ups are all magnificent.

[Dantes]

The place looks very much alive.   Many tourists have parked their cars. Nevertheless, I would like to eat an ice cream cafe in there.  Great scene.     

[bat]

El Paraiso is looking awesome!!!
Looking forward to more fantastic images of your great work in this year...

[art128]

Nice plaza once again!

But... is it that dead leaves near the cars? If yes, I don't understand... aren't they supposed to be set under trees ?

[Framly]

What a nice place

The HD-Picture is just amazing

I want Summer

[Badsim]

Hello my friend , and Happy new year ! 

Looking at these stunning pics ( as well than Yann's ones ) reminds me a long discussion I've had more than a year ago with Vincent ( Vnaoned ) about the possibilities and future of MMPs : nothing less that the end of LotEditing age ... Bare ( or basic ) LOTs  for everybody and then each players would add flora , cars, sims , garden furniture , fountains  and so on , almost unlimitedly ... so , with the same basic custom content , each one could present unique pictures . We spoke about that like we speak about a dream . Vincent is missing for months now , and if he don't come back I'll be forced to show somewhere here the incredible pictures of his work I've got , and which will  flabbergast the community ( He is one of the all time greatest and totally unknow MDer , what a unimaginable wastefulness ...  ) Looking at your pictures so , we seem to be so close to that goal , and so far at the same time , as there's still so much MMPs to build . But this is one of the most serious and strengthening encouragements to keep on building that way ... 



Thank you !

Cédric.

[peter007]

Wow. The town does look so nice. This makes me think of my vacation in France a year or two ago. Southern France is a very good place to stay. The local markets are so special. Maybe you can give it a try to make a market too. This town looks so alive!

Carl : Happy new year you too
noahclem : I'll try to get you a new home in El Paraiso I'll do something for the next update !
dmonsta19 : Thanks, it means a lot
Arthur : Could be dirt, sand, leaves... The idea was just to add something on the texture that the wind could have moved... But I get your point, thats a big stack of leaves... What can I do ?!
Cédric : I've seen some from Vincent, but not much, so I'll be really, really happy to see more ! Please show us ! ^^ Indeed, their is still a lot to do with MMPs, that's exiting
Ernst : I'll give a try to make a market in the next town, and I'll try to make it look nice !

Update 32 - El Paraiso

Again, a small update as I don't have much time to play, but I have a lot of ideas for the next weeks !
Projects are :
- To finish El Paraiso, their is still a lot to do and to show !
- A stone pit quarry, I have the stuff, just need to start it !
- A new town with more stuff like a market.
- A special project with a new marina set that I've just done !
