Still remember me? :P

Willy - Thanks. Yes, you are right. It looks a bit abandoned and it is a bit abandoned. Unfortunately this is the next aspect taken from RL. Last 20 years in Poland were dramatical for railway. Thousands kilometers of railroads closed, decreased rail traffic on most of local lines... ehh...  &mmm
Arthur - Thanks a lot, friend! Accurate remark - I forgot to put smooth curves there!
Hah! And how did you get trough those plans? Successfully? I sympathize with you - polish is very, very hard language :D
kelis - I'm glad hearing that  :) Wielnia also was representation of town near Krakow. Maybe I would try to show something from Kolbrów again ;)
noahclem - Thanks! Unfortunately I found it after the month :(
bat, RickD - Thank you!  :)

This is what I wanted to show you month ago:

Krościeniec  - Dam on Wirta river

Today we are visiting mountainous region again. Krościeniec - where is the water dam on located at a artificial Krościeniec Lake. It was created in years 70, by banking up the water on the Wirta's upper part.



Idyllic landscape, huh?


Want to swim? Unfortunately swimming and recreation is prohibited due to the fact, that the reservoir also supplies Kolbrów in potable water.



And there it is. It has the height of 31m and voivodeship road no 804 on the top.


Some restaurant near the road


... with the view at the dam.


Below the dam


Here you can rest, and swim.


Village of Krościeniec.


Just a trail, to the nearest mountain Żdżar.


Remember the gold autumn? :D


The dam fully visible.


Panorama.


SimCity has a very interesting camera, making the games exceptionally playable. However sometimes is good to think...


...three-dimensionally ;)
Thank you for visiting Kolbrów, and for being for last ten years!

Very nice update, Kamil!

The are around the dam is top notch and very well made. Farms, villages, river beds, all in all is awesome!  What I really liked is the small village with the diagonal road going through it. We can almost forget the grid on that picture. Gold autumn picture: 10/10, beautiful. Just add some rocks and underwater vegetations where the seawalls hit the river bottom, take the picture again in autumn ( - photoshop some cars on the road - ) and you are sure to get my votes in the picture competition. :)

The last picture is.. interesting, taken with the terraformer it give s a nice view of the area! Looks almost like a real picture, just lacking the details.. :P

About CaD, it was very hard at first to figure which words meant everything. But with the help from Google translate and from guessing which is which with the appliances it was more fun in the end. :P

Take care!
-Arthur. :)

This is one of the best dams I have seen in SC4.  &apls

Great work on this update, looks amazing... !
I just think that you should have kept the same water on both sides of the dam, but your work with game water is also really nice so... Anyway, this is good ! :)

Hello, kbieniu7,

Okay, so I'm actually from Simtropolis and I don't even know if I've even commented on any diaries on this site before, but I wanted to say I LOVE your cities. I've spent a lot of times in Poland because I have family there, and it feels like a second home whenever I go there. And your pictures just make me want to go again!  ;) So keep up the good work!

bat

Fantastic work on the lake and the village!! Also beautiful panorama. &apls :thumbsup:

Really great update.
I really like the forested areas, the lake and the shorlines....very well done. 
The damn is perfectly done and I find the it's green style very refreshing.

Call me Robin, please.

Hi guys, how are you?
It was a lot of time, when I lately visit my thread. Well, real life in the shape of exams and other stuff at the University took it all. Fortunatelly I passed everything in first term, so I have september free :D

Arthur - Nice to hear it, friend. Thanks for your advices, maybe I will do, what you said, and put it to picture competition ;)
RickD - I'm really positively suprised hearing it. :) Thank you!
Ol.S / Benoit - Thanks! Well, this dam was build in order to make some transition between plopable and in-game water.  ;)
Skimbo, Kergelen, bat, Guillaume - Thanks, friends!
panthersimcity4 - I'm glad to hear it. I do not know if you will read my thread and this reply again, but if so, may I ask where your family lives? :)
noahclem - Well, with each comment like this, I think developing cities, where MMPing is not so much used, will wait more and more ;)
Matthijs - Thank you!
Robin - I was basing on real dam,, so now I'm happy that I chosed the "green" one instead of fully made of concrete ;)

Maybe some photos?  ::)

A2 highway, somewhere in central Galand. It's under construction, as you see. But not for EURO, like maybe during last years :D







Enjoy!
Thank you for visiting Kolbrów, and for being for last ten years!

Good to see you back. I always like construction updates. I wonder how the A2 looks like.

Can't wait to see more of that A2 motorway. :)

Paul, Arthur and noahclem thanks for comments. There is the region view of this motorway. I tried to use as much as possible FAHRW, so it doesn't looks so sharp.
Additionally two photos from city of Patowice. It's visible on the right side of the picture.



Do you know, what I found missing in simcity needed to create more polish ambience?



Cars parked on sidewalks :P



Enjoy!
Thank you for visiting Kolbrów, and for being for last ten years!

Ah, nice work with the parked car! it feels more alive now ( not that it wasn't alive before) Really nice.
