Driftmaster, what a skyscraper forest near sea

Eliteforce - I see, you have not much space to build big city

And next time so unfinished.

To north from the city.

kbieniu- I love the look of your farms and the forests, very realistic!

Nothing wrong with making cities in the mountains, provides a challenge, sort of.

I've changed the northern side to include more water and detail.
The population is about 700,000 now. With 540k commercial and 130k ind.

Full size

This is my city - Metropolis. I've been building it for more than two years.

Looks nice. You've put a lot of work into it

This is the developed portion of Adara as of completing the third tile. Warning, this file is quite large (7 mb)!

Looks beautiful!

vtm.vic · October 22, 2009, 12:27:47 PM

Impressive region.

I'm impressed by all these big regions ... it ust have been years to create them ... they are like an RL satellite image!

The more I see, the more I get motivated, so here's my starting point.

Ok, I want people's opinion on this one. I use one giant region. I am going to increase the size of this region, and do some more terraforming. I'm going to add more tiles onto the right side of the map. What I can't decide is whether to keep with the mountain theme of the island, or maybe go for flatter and have some winding rivers and plains. I will possibly remove the small island covered with cities because I transplanted it there from another region and it doesn't really belong, or fit in (Although the 1.5 million sims really helped keep high density demand up). The region is currently 12 X 12 of the largest cities, and I think i will increase it to 12 X 18. Anyone have any suggestions which direction I should go? Comments and criticisms welcome.

Really beautiful Jonno! And so impressive! I hope that lot of people will download it!

Earth quake · October 25, 2009, 12:41:22 PM

Beautiful Overview of the region.

Great mountains there jonno! What terrain mod are you using to get those grey cliffs?

jonno · October 28, 2009, 05:21:07 PM

Thanks everyone. For terrain mods, looking at my plugins folder, I have a mixture of CPT Olympic and CPT Italia Terrain mods, and JRN_PEG_Limestone for the cliff faces.

I am in the process of expanding the region right now. I'll post the picture when I'm finished.

ecoba · October 28, 2009, 05:30:38 PM

That's an amazing region view, jonno.

That terraforming is quite amazing.

But, please, resize that image to a minimum of 1025x768, as right now, it is causing a sideways scroll.

Since everyone here has given me so much inspiration I figure it's appropriate to show some of my own results.

Here's a hand-terraformed canyon area of one of the regions I'm working on using only the in-game tools. This is a 4x4 portion of the total 12x12 large tile size region.

My testing region "Riversdale" with the town of Pilgrim's Rest in the South and the suburbs of Hillcrest and Kromdraai in the northern parts. Further north the city of Richmond will be developed in the future, as well as more "modern" developments on the eastern side of the river.

I love the effect you achieved with those hills! They look so great.
