That's Cidaun west ringroad intersection, last update we go to south and now we go to the west. And now we enter Cidaun city:

More to the west and we'll see a welcome roundabout:

If we go to the south, we'll enter the city's park but we'll discover it later. Now we go more to the west and meet the south section of Cidaun market area:

Very nice update, everything seems well managed. Thought, what is this giant sign on the second picture from the bottom ? It looks a bit odd where it is. (seems to stand from  the roof of the houses)

It feels like the rainy season up here in Lapland (weird that it's rain this time of year and not snow) so I understand the feeling of constant rainy days  ;)

Cireseh is a part of Pondok Daun city that hold most of it's low wealth residential (as the city slum part is here). Cireseh Subdistrict itself divided into 5 part: Ciborok, Cireseh Hulu, Cireseh Selatan, Tukad Besik, and Cirengas

The "Prapatan Cireseh" (Cireseh intersection) is one of the Pondok Daun, city center as it intersect Jl Raya Cireseh with Jl Raya Kebayoran Bawah which both are the main road of the city:

in Cireseh still exist some empty land slot that used by low wealth resident to make slums. as we see nearby the Jl Raya Cireseh:

Jl Raya Cireseh it self connected Cireseh with Pasar Selbring (could be seen in previous update):

(near the Pasar Selbring highway exit)

Another main road toward Cireseh is Jl Dr Tambunan, that parallel in east with Jl Raya Cireseh:

Jl Kebayoran Bawah, a road that connect Pasar Baru, Pondok Daun (Comming soon) with Cidaun city. We also can see 2 of Pondok Daun Landmark here, Stadion Cireseh Pondok Daun (Cireseh Pondok Daun Stadium) and Lapas Pondok Daun (Pondok Daun jail):

Excellent job.
The passage of slums to the countrysides, bounded by the highway, doesn't shock and even are aesthetically pleasing. I love the atmosphere that creates the rice in this mix density, ranging from slums, richest houses and fields.
Your industrial zone is also very nice with the dirt and smoke that must make life pleasant around the factories and chinmney.  ;D

You've been active lately, so I was wondering if perhaps an update was in the works. Glad to see one here. Perusing the archives (this MD has been around longer than I've been active) has led me to a lot of your work, which is generally really good. I like the style and the way you can make SC4 really look like someplace in Southeast Asia (Indonesia/Malaysia, etc.)--or at least reasonably good enough to fool my untrained eye.

Hopefully you'll find more time to play and show us your handiwork, but this was a fairly sizable update. I'm not sure what a switch to East Asian city styles (other than Hong Kong) would entail, since there can be a wide variety of East Asian cities, and I'm not familiar with the Asian continent in general.

Not sure what to do about the trains and NAM plug-ins.
What you could do is to disconnect a few road between the stations / cities / citycenters, or place a few road blocker to force the sims to use the trains.

The city looks great! I love how densely it's built up without solely relying on a grid road pattern. This makes the city overall more interesting :thumbsup:
These diagonal road sections and the motorway look great.

Unfortunately the elevated avenue doesn't work for me as I seem to be missing the road textures and couldn't find them anywhere  %confuso
Maybe one could try making a T21 mod for the 7.5m networks to have this skin... It would definitely help making long elevated road/avenue sections look better

Really enjoying finding this CJ recently and going through the older posts, it's providing plenty inspiration for a Japanese region I'm currently planning.

I don't fully understand how they can not have road textures, but I'd guess you want to re-install the NAM perhaps since they should come with it.

The overpass skin is part of the Japanese NAM Facelift mod (http://hide-inoki.com/bbs/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=818), the skin works for both 7.5m and 15m networks, however since 7.5m networks don't have ramps its usually more compact to use 15m versions in urban spaces. The third item (Neko_Overpass_AddOn_Lot.zip) listed on the link above is a Mod by Neko that adds both small and long ramps for the 7.5m networks which provides a neat solution to this problem, it also comes with under-overpass parking lots too.

warning: this update contain horror and myth stories, possibly make you creep out...

Click here for the background music to add the atmosphere of update (https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/2frp9a3jri9hn35/Corpse_Party_Book_of_Shadows_OST_-_16_Depths_of_Space_and_Time.mp3?dl=0)

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/y7mhvtrcv6uoi6w/Banner.jpg)

Chiyoko, a city in Watanabe Prefecture. It's just about 27km from Downtown Watanabe city, the prefecture capital also Nakahara's 2nd largest city. Beneath the city, there's a myth growing on local residents.

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/ecpted2rmb1yfmm/Chioka%20Overview.jpg)

Chioka Forest (千岡森), a forest in Chiyoko. Legend said that this forest which some people called it as Chioka (血岡森) hide something inside it. Locals likely said that there's a forbidden place named Shinodake Estate inside the forest... is it true?

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/g9wajjkxmu5d07f/Kita%20Sekichi-cho.jpg)

We stopped at the bus stop in this Sekichi town (関地町) on the side of Okuzawa Highway (岡沢街道), Watanabe Prefectural route 134 just from Shimazaki, 20km in the south of Chiyoko. Seems theres nothing wrong about this town so far.

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/4qfap8vxato5eqd/Nishi%20Sekichi-cho.jpg)

Walking around in this town, find out something about Shinodake estate maybe someone already know about it? it started to be dark here....

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/65bz9st666xo8m4/Sekichi-cho%202.jpg)

but anyway nothing different here, everything seems like usual town in Nakahara.... But.... why every time we ask about that place everyone just scared and avoiding it? some actually really pointing to the other way though... so, might just turn back and see what we can get....

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/mew8kz9ig04zy29/Sekichi-cho%201.jpg)

Guess that we need to cross this major road again... and enter the town.

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/3gwu3lh1kctxkba/Okazawa%20Kaido%2C%20Sekichi-cho.jpg)

But this way seems pretty much less populated and houses started to be rare....

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/myvbpocx3dpycvh/Chioka%20end%20road.jpg)

What now, the road in this area are badly maintained and now, seems the road ends here or not? anyway we havent found anything so far... so maybe lets continue there...

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/4zjkjlvhezj0su6/Chioka%201.jpg)

This place not have any sign of human life inside it, and this might just an abandoned pathway across the forest..

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/pi08zxeljn5cc2g/Chioka%20town.jpg)

Wait what is this??? seems like this place used to be lived by people but now, not even a single soul inside it anymore... this heavy feeling just really weird and this place must have something wrong about it.... still we haven't found Shinodake name in any of these houses...

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/1asu4ijlvuytktn/Chioka%202.jpg)

Going deeper into forest, my feeling about something wrong here are going heavier...

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/vgql3kygds3tfhk/Shinodake%20Estate%20empty.jpg)

dunno why but I feels that place really strange.....

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/bntu9w3xng7x4t9/Chioka%204.jpg)

This place, really feels to be wrong about it, idk how to say anymore...

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/4gc0lydnt9cg259/Chioka%20night%201.jpg)

I try to go back on this path.. to go back since I got nothing here.....

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/8fbpfeztsz134mn/Chioka%20night%202.jpg)

Strange but I feels like already walks for miles away and surely if measured in this afternoon, I should already see the main road now but how could it possible???

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/4gc0lydnt9cg259/Chioka%20night%201.jpg)

This place???? Really again???? looks like I just walking around in circle... but how????? I remembered that I just followed this road...
wait what is that??? WHATTT? AAAHHH?

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/1s2pm9w3dsih0y8/Shinodake%20Estate%20night.jpg)

That empty lot in the evening now it turn out to be a house complete with a sign name "Shinodake" that must be the place which mentioned earlier......


note: this story actually heavily influenced on Corpse Party Book of Shadow final chapter (blood drive) so maybe some already familiar with this one? lol

anyway thats all for this update hope you enjoyed....

Hello Atusko-sama,

I love your work/diary! &apls

I have 2 questions please - in one of your pictures (see attached) - there is a rock/mountain path.  Is it transit enabled (ie people can walk on it)?  And please where can I download these rocks/mountains paths?  It looks realistic/amazing.

Thank you and keep up your good works on diaries!  :thumbsup: &apls

"From Akashima 5 months later...."

Akashima, January 10 2015

From: Konae Fumiko (@fmkko45)
To: Miyazawa Mizuki (@mizukimiya930)

Hey how are you? its already very cold here lately in Akashima, we have plently snowfall earlier this month. I think Shinkyo have better temperature than here since it located more to the north. Anyway I still in new year holiday now, school start at next Monday so well its the end of my holiday here hahaha.....

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/hw5lqx59d04ln4e/1.jpg?)

I just remembered when we still in elementary school in Shinkyo, before my family move due to my father task. do you still remembered when we play in snow winter until it was dark already... what a memory lol. Oh btw I just moved into a new house, but still not far from the apartment we rent beforehand. I can still see it everyday when going to school or downton.

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/qp3iw6thuq08wdh/4.jpg)

How is your holiday? what are you doing in new year? I had plenty boring holiday maybe in my opinion, being trapped in the house all since the holiday started XD... However I got a good new year, going around the city watching the countdown, you know there is some firework too here in this city but not as big as previous year since we still recovering from the disaster 5 month ago.

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/3jb4nyj2cyw0n11/3.jpg)

5 months ago the earthquake was very hardly hit my place here, thank god me and my family here okay and safed since we live in northern part of Akashima which barely affected by earthquake. There are some minor damage around my area here like some glass broke but thankfully nothing badly damaged.

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/4hffmpauultvkh1/5.jpg)

But too bad with what happened in the south. I have some friend which affected badly with the earthquake, it's so sad to heard the story though. I can't even imagine how people in southern part of city when the disaster happened, too scary, I just can send pray to them. I hope this horrible disaster won't happened anymore here and anywhere else.

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/84tb1r3gnpaxyk0/6.jpg)

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/rwe1ptd0sj3p202/7.jpg)

Anyway lets now wake up as the city begun to rebuild. Yesterday I can see how the city recover. There were many major redevelopment around the city. It's really incredible how fast the city recovered from the disaster.

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/pzs4mp5s24mephn/2.jpg)

Let's talk about other thing now, guess what? I have tried the new train in this city, well it's actually the same usual route to the school but it has new cabs. I like the new one design, or maybe just because its new hahahaha..

Anyway thats all I want to write now. I want to heard about your story too in Shinkyo, reply my email as soon as possible okay. ヾ(@^▽^@)ノ

May I ask you:

a) what are those parks that divide the two roads on the bottom left of the picture (the dark grey ones)?
b) Also, what is that building, on the right of the pic, with a girl in the banner ("AnyCall")?

Thank you! well that's my attempt to centralize the development around station (TOD/Transit Oriented Development). I've done much similar concept toward other theme in my cities not only for Japanese one  ;).

As for the question, that park is my custom lot which I create earlier this year. I haven't plan to release it so if you want it, you can ask me.. ;)
for the building with that banner is from korean website (kinda forgot which one  :-[ ) I think the link to the website is somewhere around a korean BAT description page in ST.

Return or not? well idk

First of all hi again all! It's been a while since I make update here so I think its time to post one.  :)
Before that I would like thanks for the user name change, since I will use this name for most of website I visited (also check my youtube channel with same name  $%Grinno$% ).

Back to the topic... So after in hiatus for a while, I decide to turn this MD back with full update. I know many players now switched to CSL, but for me and some player who don't have high end pc/laptop, SC4 is pretty enough for me especially it still rocks in my opinion. With this, I try to keep SC4 community on as well with this SC4D which is one of my first fansite to join back on 2009.

Short talk, lets just go to the update.....

I think the best pictures are the ones with the ground railway station, the canal/river and the avenue intersections. Finally the last picture with that dull pink-coloured skyscrapers is amazing. Well done.

Very well made, very dense city :thumbsup: I especially like the train snaking its way on the viaduct rail with smooth curves :D I always miss those when building light rail networks.

Thanks! :) imho, this density is nothing compared with real life Tokyo. I can't even make something nearby like it  :-[

Thank you!  ;D though I really hope that there is a dual rail curve (and viaduct) just like RHW because I can't really create a double heavy rail smoothly as how a single rail done.

Allright, lets go back to Nakahara from Nanami...  :-[

In the Snowy Day
(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/lnruufplm73zw6b/snow%20apartment.jpg)
Thursday December 24 2015 5:34pm. Minamiyoko, Watanabe Prefecture. Miyahara Fuuko in her room reading a message in her phone. Its nothing more from her friend, Koshiro who is be her friend since 2 years ago when both enter Kitakashi Highschool. In the message, Koshiro want Fuuko to meet him at Chuo Park 7pm this evening. 
"Hmm, chuo park? It may be pretty cold there since its already snow a little bit here. But I don't want to make Fukumoto-san disappointed by not coming. I will wait few minutes to see if its already stop snowing"
5 minutes later....
"Aaa, its more snowy now. I should go anyway"
Her apartment located not far from the Hirabara Station where she take train from there toward the Minamiyoko Station.

Minamiyoko Station ekimae at 6.20pm
(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/qek6k1u103yon5h/snow%20ekimae.jpg?dl=0)
"I think I should buy something toward him first before going to the park. There should be any good stuff that I can buy from store around here... Maybe this can done? ah too expensive..."
Not knowing time, she just walking around the area and end up buyin nothing
"Oh no, its 7.20 already, I should hurry go there"

Meanwhile in park..... Fukumoto Koshiro wait there since 6.40pm in the rather crowded park with half frozen pond reflecting the light in the trees.
"Fuuko is late? well it seems that reasonable with this snow"

After 10 minutes, Fuuko arrived in park. It seems that she just running from the shop area.

"Sorry for waiting. it's my fault for not knowing time."
"Thats okay"
"So what are you want to do?"
"I got something to tell you"
Koshiro takes a deep breath.
"I'm going to be honest here. from since I know you 2 years in first grade highschool, I think I like you, you are the one where my affection are going to. Thats what I can tell you atm"
"You don't need to answer it now, You can answer it anytime you want, I dont care if you have same feeling with me but thats what I feel."
The wind breezed when the light snow falling into the almost frozen pond in the park. Fuuko seems not giving any response. she just stand there and blushing a little.

Hello everyone, pretty much necroing thread here? So that's the title of the update now
Anyway its official that 2016 was the year without any activity of my MD at all due to RL syndrome etc etc.... too many stuff around SC4D that I missed, hope I can keep up now. For the last update I'm sorry but no individual replies since it was already more than 1 year which made em obsolete. But thanks in overall for the comment everyone.

Allright on to the update.

+--------------------------------------+
Update 19: Necrofantasia


Winter time, the weather is cold though there is no snow currently in this city, Arakawa. Arakawa like its neighboring main city Akashima has rather colder winter than most of other major cities in Nakahara. People just business as usual in Shibahama area, Hokuto Ward, Arakawa City, Minamizaki Prefecture, Nakahara.
(https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/303/32273571830_96727d303c_o.jpg)
Shibahama Station ekimae (area nearby Station)

Its been 2 and half year after the major disaster hit this city back on the end of July 2014. Shibahama wasn't affected much by the disaster but its population activities did. The Metropolitan area of Akashma has completely recovered from the disaster as it looks like.

Morning and evening, commuters waiting at Shibahama Station east gate for the bus or just arrived by bus waiting for the train.

Current temperature is 1 degree Celsius, rather warmer than last night where it reached minus 2 degree. People prefer to stay indoor at this weather.

I particularly like the last, in the heart of this pretty little suburb, the park really invites you to relax.
The density is very realistic and perfectly mastered according to the remoteness of the station and the main roads.

Thanks a lot!  :) well yeah, from what I know most of the major station in Japanese urban area (especially Tokyo) have area called ekimae where there is a lot of stuff in area. though idk yet since I havent go there yet so feel free to correct it  $%Grinno$%. oh also, the remoteness of station from main road do exist here but in other case.  :P

Thanks and nice to see you around here! well yeah SC4 still one of my favourite game at this time. Although I played Cities Skylines a little bit, aside with my pc or laptop doesn't meet the requirements, I didnt get the same atmosphere as in SC4 so it doesn't replace SC4 imo.
Well, Never think that someone actually like it  $%Grinno$% thanks again. I have to do some ridiculous lotting here since I need to fulfill the lack of major japanese station available out there aside from several that I've used a lot in other areas.

+---------------------------------+
Well after been in Eastern Asian particularly Japanese styled cities, now I present you what just inactive and dead for a while... Karasem, a developing Southeast Asian country. It's more like a revival of the MD since I've closed it back in January 2015 at Update 39.. so here we go, Karasem Update 40...

Update 40: Limited Love

Cibebek Utara, Cibebek, Karasem. A district in Karasem's 2nd largest city where don't want to live but have to be.... atleast that for several people live in this area inside the northern part of Cibebek. People can shop a cheap stuff into high-end stuff in the Plaza Tanah Baru, a shopping centre built in 2003 alongside with the surrounding commercial area.
(https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/717/31669436093_f9285b0a89_o.jpg)
A commercial center next to Simpang Tanah Baru (Tanah Baru Intersection) where Jl Saika Raya (north-south) meets Jl Raya Krajan (west-east)

This commercial area, where you can enjoy walking alongside the road while shopping or just enjoy the atmosphere is really feels like you are not in Northern part of Cibebek.
(https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/698/31669427583_d955fe2a52_o.jpg)
Commercial area in the east of Plaza Tanah Baru

Alongside with Jl Raya Krajan, the commercial area is rather elite even compared to those in the main road.
(https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/515/32102535390_c49c59262b_o.jpg)
Jl Raya Krajan near the Ruko Plaza Tanah Baru

In the night this area is bright, either from the evening traffic near intersection which sometime a worst situation or maybe from the lightning system inside the shoping centre
(https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/372/32102487790_51b4ecf618_o.jpg)
Simpang Tanah Baru at night

This area actually not very far from a mass transit station aside from local buses or paratransits. Tanah Baru Station located below the overpass of Jl Saika Raya which one of the main option for the commuter in Cibebek Metropolitan Area. Its located in the Jl Saika Raya which is Cibebek's main corridor toward the downtown areas where located in the south of Tanah Baru.

Nightshot of Tanah Baru Station

Yeah this area actually close toward city centre and have easy access, why it so miserable? lets go to the north of the Intersection to see whats happening....
(https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/413/32329601422_8747869198_o.jpg)

Alongside Jl Saika Raya it still rather nice with the exception of the daily morning and evening commute time where it's a real bumper to bumper.
(https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/621/31669507293_5622d1e969_o.jpg)
Jl Saika Raya crossing the Krajan River

People can see something different from the bright side of the city by visiting the Krajan River which located in the middle of Tanah Baru Subdistrict... Not only at the Krajan River, much of the Cibebek Utara district of the city actually consist of slums and semipermanent settlements which prone towards fires and other risks.
(https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/696/31637496404_b9106c8cc2_o.jpg)
Behind the hypermarket in Tanah Baru..

Going deeper from the main street shows the other side of this area.... People come here anywhere from Cibebek Province or other places in Karasem

east or west from Jl Saika Raya, there are slums...
(https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/716/32359378071_f5d6bfe267_o.jpg)
A slum area in Tanah Baru Timur Subdistrict.

But, people in the riverside have much worse situation than any other area in Cibebek Utara District.... Not only live in the bad situation, they also in border of life when they got into the river whether incidentally or intentional since the river had a rather strong flow eventhough it has too many stuff in it, like plastic bag and used beds (no joke, somepeople really throw away their used beds into river).

Like in Jl Saika Raya, Jl Raya Pasar Krajan looks well and lively compared what behind it....

Tanah Baru Timur Subdistrict is one of area in Cibebek prone to flooding. Back in 2014, the flood breaks into this area, it even hit the Jl Raya Krajan in the south of it, disturbing the citizens activities.

Tanah Baru Timur riverside slum at night

In order to reduce the risk of flood, the city government planned to do a revitalization alongside Krajan river which involve to reduce the river sedimentation as well to create the wall alongside the river. This already done in the Krajan River downstream as seen in Krajan Utara Subdistrict where the river in better situation.

Although the area around the river still rather poor looking, this area which flooding in 2014, no longer flooding during 2016 flood which hit the Tanah Baru area due to the river revitalization work done in 2015 which done with several violence...
(https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/339/31637509604_e8def9a7c1_o.jpg)
Jl Kampung Dalam, where the previous work of revitalization meet the old looking riverside....

The city government planned to revitalize the river futher upstream, but this involve the displacement and eviction of the riverside settlement which mostly illegal. People alongside the river in Tanah Baru currently in the worrisome. They have a time bomb ticking where the have to move out from where they live now.
(https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/301/32481110235_66ed107b27_o.jpg)
Back in Tanah Baru Utara....

They don't know where to live after this, where they have daily activities. Other place just too expensive for them to afford.....
(https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/533/31637469414_cac5fccc15_o.jpg)

To handle the displacement, city government currently building several housing project for people that affected by the project or other people around Cibebek Utara slums... First and second highrise building of the housing project currently being built in Jl Tanah Baru Timur Dalam. This area covered by the local bus with route from Tanah Baru Station toward Semawu in Northern part of Cibebek.

Some of the people think the housing project just too far away form they current location where it will be more difficult for people to reach where they have their activities beforehand...
(https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/502/32440482816_ac84bb72be_o.jpg)

However, it is still very controversial whether it is a right thing to displace people in force as it might a violation toward the human rights. The citizens around the city still arguing about this....

Tanah Baru Timur Subdistrict.

Whichever the right decision, people of Cibebek just hope this area will no longer become the city eyesore without humiliating some people..

Thats all for today. hope you enjoy this rather depressing update.. and oh maybe something not depressing?

Apparently, the Tanah Baru Timur Subdistrict is not the perfect place to live!  :D .........But it is incredibly realistic !  :thumbsup:
All these small courses between these precarious sheet and wood shelters are very characteristic of the tropical shantytown. And most importantly, one can literally visualize the differences in levels of wealth of the inhabitants through your reproductions of districts. This proximity between shopping centers and slums reminds me the outskirts of Manila.  ::) 
I'm looking forward to see more  :popcorn:

Apparently there is just one reply  :-[.... I guess that SE Asian theme less interesting than East Asian one....

Allow me to disagree. I love the southeast Asian theme, especially where the Jl Tanah Baru Timur Dalam (but that name though... why such a name for a mere access road? ??? ;D) crosses the river... it's so seamless. &apls

East Asian city is nice as well. :) Strikingly more gray than the souteast Asian ones though.

In any case, whether for the Southeast Asian theme or the Japanese theme, your style remains unique and very realistic.  &apls &apls &apls
As in these pics always so lively that they would be believed taken at the moment of google map. Especially the overall view of Kogawa-cho, where the choice of buildings and their distribution is extremely judicious. Great !  :thumbsup:

Thank you for coming here!  ;D the name of such road is pretty common here, especially in the inner city residential area in Jakarta (Jl Tanah Baru Timur Dalam literally in english means Inner East Tanah Baru Road).

About the East Asian city grayness is just some effect done for winter feeling (maybe it is like that? since its already been 18 years since last time I ever see winter). it wont be that gray in other season though.

Well I think thats might be true since there are fluctuation of forum activity and that update posted just in wrong time. but my previous assumption about both theme is based on the statistic in my ST CJ back in 2014 shows the East Asian CJ do has more both number of views, thumbs up and comment but well its 2 yrs ago and its different site here.  :-[

Thank you for visiting my MD!  :) well yeah I see both the likes and number of view seems increased a lot after I bumped this thread by new update. it might be rather quiet because of the timing of the update.

Basically the southeast asian city one mostly based on what I see so yeah. But not everywhere in Southeast Asian city is that poor or "slumish" area. there are a lot of nice places with good environment here as well.  ;)


+---------------------------------------+

Allright then... this update also about east asian city since I havent done much toward southeast asian city lately but I will post next one about Karasem again  ;) .

Update 20: Cherry Blossom haven't bloom yet (桜花がまだ咲かない)

Does spring come yet? Maybe but not really in Nakahara. Atleast in Okusawa, Minamiyoko, winter feeling still rather significant here. As yet another Suburban area in Shinkyo Metropolitan area, people started to move here and turn this previously rather spooky forest area into housing area since the completion of Okusawa Line which connect this area into Shimazaki City back in 1960. Moreover, the connection toward the airport line done in 1978 creating alternative transportation toward Shinkyo

I think that bare trees combined with this particular terrain textures, some rocks and Japaneese houses (those particular models seems to have a little darker colour tones) makes a great grayish look!

Thank you! Haven't watched that movie but it seems interesting although I heard kinda irrelevant? anyway it might be into my list of watching in future.
East Asia do have a lot of beautiful places.. As much I would like to backpack there as well which I never done it yet beforehand. Also, SE Asia also do have some nice places for summer experiences and rather far cheaper than east asia...  :P

Thank you! well as I said above, I never though that it will be fit with current condition in northern hemisphere since I just do it based on pictures in the internet.
I think the seasonal MMP and Neko T21 mods do the job well in situation like this as it will changed based on the season and I just change the ingame date in order to get the scene. Also not forget to the Appalachian Terrain Mod I use. Well maybe also with the help of Photoshop for adding additional effect.  ;)

Back to the Southeast Asian city, Cibebek which is Karasem's 2nd largest city. This update wont be as large as the last Karasem update since current MD page (page 23) already really heavy to load (atleast from my perspective). so here we are, a 6 pictures update.

Update 41: Blue Kaleidoscope

Note: 万華鏡 = Kaleidoscope
Pasar Biru (literally means Blue Market) is a subdistrict of Cibebek Utara District which also bordering Saika District where newer CBD of Cibebek located. During 1970s, this area known for its second hand markets, cheap stuffs and not forget "kaki lima*" foods. Later during the rapid urbanization of Cibebek-Kota Baru Metropolitan area, this area become gentrified with the major stores, malls and department stores replaced the cheap traditional market which now mostly moved toward pasar Krajan northwest of this area. But this area still hold the original spirit of the location for its closure toward the city center and its position as a commercial area.

Simpang Pasar Biru at night

Pasar Biru Station is the main station in Pasar Biru. This station currently serves Ciasem Route (Cibebek Raya Station-Ciasem) and Cibebek Ring Route. Previously this station is also serves the Cikaas Route which had the route from Pasar Biru toward Cikaas Station, since the completion of the shortcut of Cikaas Route toward Saika Station in 2007 due to the demand of local commuters, Cikaas Route redirected from Pasar Biru to Saika Station with current main route from Cibebek Raya-Saika-Cikaas-Bukit Pesona. Although so, this station still serves the minor feeder line of Cikaas line. Area around Pasar Biru Station now full of commercial center such as malls and stores.

Ah, yeah, although flags of our countries are very similiar, the climate it's so different. Up-side-down, one might say :D

However, with those words you made me think... how much do I really know about Indonesia, SE Asia and generally this part of the word? Like Krasner wrote -  not so much. Mostly what I know from movies, internet, etc. . I reviewed photos from your previous updates and made me think even more. How far those views are to me.. How many things and references do I miss or do not recognize in your pictures? For me (and probably many other people from Europe and America) it's hard to spot all differences in the lookout between Asian countries. And maybe a next question, how do our - European styled MDS - look to you?

That was a bunch of deeper questions... followed by conclusion, that is so great, to see so many different point of views from around the globe on one forum :)

By the way, I think you should make maps of your train routes, I see that you give a significant attention to railways in your game, but it's hard to follow them only with text ;)

Thank you! yeah if compiled from the beginning of Karasem, it is 6.5 years progress until today where I started to create the lots for SE Asian Cities. My Southeast Asian City mostly inspired from Jakarta where is literally just several metres border from my current apartment in Depok... well not only the main city but mostly the metropolitan areas while rural part of Karasem took inspiration from most of area alongside the north coast of Java. So yeah most of Southeast
Asian work in SC4 is based what I see daily... well atleast this 7 years backward.

Well yeah our flag literally upside down each other...  :D It is kinda complicated how to describe the references I have in my cities, at this moment my southeast asian major city just follow the 'generic' low-middle class view on Jakarta with several landmarks like Jl Saika Raya in Cibebek and Jl Pamekasan Raya in Meriah heavily modeled after Jl Sudirman in Jakarta. In future I might try several variations such as a major high wealth residential area like Kelapa Gading (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelapa_Gading) in my city, but it do need several preparations like adding more lots etc....

TBH back in 2010 when I start to active in this site, I find the European city rather similar with characteristic of classical w2w stuffs. at that time I cant recognize the Mediterranean city, France, Germany etc. But later on, I learned much about European cities and started to know if this city have a certain theme. and finally today (atleast I think) I can recognize if a city belong to a certain theme, this mostly thanks to the google maps's feature: Google Streetview which I used since 2013 to travel around other countries cities. Not least, I also learned the differences from several work in SC4 which includes from this site.


Anyway long reply, thanks for the comments... the suggestion will be used in this update ;)

Well this update rather inspired by kbieniu7 comment about my work on railroad. This update rather than showing certain area in city, it shows several stations in Cibebek Metropolitan Area which I've made in game so far since 2010. Also if you notice the first page of my MD, I made a plan for future update which include an update focused on rail system. so stay tuned ;)

Update 42: Stations...

https://www.youtube.com/v/3FkTTMybxLM

Cibebek Metropolitan Area which includes Karasem's capital city Kota Baru is Karasem 2nd largest metropolitan area after the former capital Kota Meriah with population of 11,271,420 people in 2010. Cibebek Metropolitan area has the largest and most used railway in Karasem. As for 2016 it has average daily usage 1,305,357 people, higher than Meriah urban railway (504,302) even with M2RT (Meriah Mass Rapid Transit) combined which is 711,700 people in 2016.

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/o3okoxy1sha2dx2/Cibebek%20Metro.png?dl=0)
Cibebek Metropolitan Area Local-Commuter train service Map.

The history of Cibebek railway started in 1900 when Dutch Malaya (now Karasem) built the Narrow gauge (1,067 mm) railway from New Breda (now Pondok Daun) toward Tandjoeng Doeren (now in Kota Baru) in order to transport the industrian goods between city. Current network built in 1940s when Japanese Occupation where Kamogawa (Cibebek) works as a strategic location in Malaya Archipelago area as it become the governing central of region. After Karasem independence in 1949, Kamogawa left as the national 3rd largest city while have the largest urban rail network in overall.

Cibebek Raya Station (Formerly Kamogawa Station) originally built in 1900, renovated in 1942. It's the city main terminal with the largest number of lines served as well as intercity trains. Local Commuter Trains served mostly at platform 4-8 while the intercity trains served by platform 1-3. It is the largest train station in Karasem and 3rd by daily average usage of 45,034 people.

The urban railway system currently has 7 main lines and 1 feeder line serving Cibebek Metropolitan Area. The Kota Baru Line is the most crowded line in the system serving between Cibebek Raya Station to Petamburan Station. Second most traveled line is Cibebek Loop line looping Cibebek City with the turnpoint at Minami-Kamogawa Station where the train going back forward. Ciasem Line is the next in term of passengers.

Padang Tengah Station, a station in Southern Ciasem city where it has rather rural-looking surrounding. Although it seems to be in middle of ricefields, it actually serves a lot of worker at nearby industrial area as well as the suburban commuters in southern Ciasem.

Cikaas Line originally serves from Krajan Station-Cikaas Station via Pasar Biru Station, now this line which serves Northeast part of Cibebek Metropolitan area mostly serves from Cikaas Station toward Cibebek Raya Station via the new shortcut done by 2007. Cipayung line which serves eastern part of metropolitan area was rather less traveled line in the system with headway averaging 20 minutes.

The Ciasem Line shares with the trains toward Tanjung Pojok, Cikaas Line shares with the railway toward Pondok Daun, Tanjung Duren Line shares with railway toward Kota Meriah via Pulau Panjang Bridge and Kota Baru line share with trains toward Bankalan Station. Some expection is Cipayung line doesn't share its line with inter-city services and Ciluar line which formerly old airport rail link.

Yaay spring! Though the pollen can be annoying indeed . . :crytissue:

As for de-modernizing Mikawa, in the pictures shown I'm kinda missing larger, monumental structures - be it historic governmental buildings or open public spaces. Maybe look at the history of Kyoto (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heian-ky%C5%8D) for inspiration?  :thumbsup:

I looked at your railway map of Cibebek-Kota Baru network, I followed your photos and descriptions of each station. You really give a great attention to all the details of the lines and even rolling stock! Really good job on that matter!  :thumbsup:

In the update #21 I also admire those cherry trees giving a beautiful charm of japanese spring (although I have never seen it with my own eyes, just in the pictures ;). However, after the previous update, I couldn't help looking for trains and wondering where they are going and how many passengers are on board in them right now  ;D

Well, Mikawa in last update feature a typical neighbor instead of a landmarks which why there is no such buildings with exception of several minor temples and shrines. As for the suggestion thank you! I've read it beforehand and already make the real former capital area featuring the former imperial palace although it isn't ready yet.

Thank you! well I like to design the public transit (actually transportation network in overall) of a city which make me enjoy every second in creating that update. As for the details of that system, I do plan to release the overall wiki-styled page to describe the whole system on Cibebek City as well as in Meriah or other cities that I create but that might have to wait until I have enough time for that. :) Special mention on detailing rolling stocks, I do like to mention more of it actually in my last update if the automata available (I want TRTA 3000 series, Tokyo Metro 5000, 6000 and 7000 Series, Tokyu 8500 Series, and JR 209 Series) or maybe I just post several real life pictures since I have a collection of rolling stocks here (you can call me a train geek for this  ;D ).

I can call my self same as I havent see the cherry blossom with my eyes until now. I feel that it is the icon of spring in Japan and maybe in Korea as well (idk). About the train in Mikawa, I really have no plan to create similar update like in Cibebek at this point but I've plan to do for some of my Japanese Cities (Akashima, Katajima, Shinkyo etc) so stay tune ;) .

Again long reply. Thanks!

Thank you! I'm not really do it in this update but I might consider to do. Although it might be just for one city as I work in multiple regions,  about 6-8 separate regions which I work whatever theme that I want to do.

+=====================+
Almost 2 months without update, a lot of stuff going on here. First as you might not know, I currently in late semester in university, doing undergraduate thesis which takes me plenty of time lately. Secondly, in empty times I play other games instead of sc4 which include Stellaris, EU4, ETS2, CIV5 and Cities Skylines as well. in future I might try to post CSL pictures here as well but nothing interesting since I play mostly without mod and my PC and Laptop cant really handle population above 100k.
Despite all of that, I still do SC4 over other games above actually so don't worry about me stop my SC4 MD here anytime soon. ;)

Anyway lets go to the update. This update actually takes place in early april btw....

Update 22: Zōkadearou to shita mono

https://www.youtube.com/v/QhrvH-X3kOs

(This update shows area close to Update 13 and 20)
Nagatsuka (長津田町) is an area located in northern end of Minamiyoko City, Watanabe Prefecture bordering with Chiyoko City in the same prefecture. Located just north of Okusawa, Okusawa Station is the main station serving this area.

What a fabulous composition! There's just so much to discover. Beautiful. Just beautiful. I can't actually say why, but I like picture 17 the most. So serene and yet lively with the little sakura spots.  &apls

Also good luck on progressing with your thesis! I am, too, currently very busy working on mine as well, which pretty much eliminates my chances to play the game. At least, BATing is a little less nerve-racking than building a new plugins folder.  :D
Also nice choice on other games, EU4 and Stellaris in particular (I'm a sucker for Paradox's strategy games! Consider me a CK2 and Victoria 2 crack as well  ;D)

Nice area! Cherry trees looks indeed beatiful, the children playing at the playground from screens 5-8 have the best place ;) What is more, you really nice use FA and diagonal roads, gentle curves and pieces, almost unspotable sometimes, but together create a nice little windy layout :)

I also play ETS2 from time to time, really nice to finally switch from building highways to ride on them  $%Grinno$% And fingers crossed for your thesis! I had the same last years  ;D

What a lovely little area. I certainly love the cherry blossom and that urban power line caught my attention too - great work!
Thank you! about that power line, I try to make it as good as possible as it's a little bit tricky working on it on hilly area...  $%Grinno$%

What a fabulous composition! There's just so much to discover. Beautiful. Just beautiful. I can't actually say why, but I like picture 17 the most. So serene and yet lively with the little sakura spots.  &apls

Also good luck on progressing with your thesis! I am, too, currently very busy working on mine as well, which pretty much eliminates my chances to play the game. At least, BATing is a little less nerve-racking than building a new plugins folder.  :D
Also nice choice on other games, EU4 and Stellaris in particular (I'm a sucker for Paradox's strategy games! Consider me a CK2 and Victoria 2 crack as well  ;D)
Thanks a lot! I do agree a lot with the amount of details that Neko's mod as well as several other that I use for the level 6 zoom view. I should give credit to them for that picture as it wont be like that without their works.

well SC4 is for relaxing from the hard work in a while as well as several other games atleast for me  ;D ... good luck with yours as well!

Try not to consider me good on those games  $%Grinno$% , well only civ 5 that I'm good actually. in paradox strategy games, I'm not really good at them...

What Tree Controller are you using or is this all MMP work?
Most of the tree in the last update are from MMP work. I use the ARDEN Seasonal tree controller (http://sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=2959) although I rarely use the god mode in detailing works like this.
Thanks for visiting my MD btw..  :)

Thanks a lot! lately I do really like to use the NAM dragable FAR and curves and yeah it do really make something different with what you can get in vanila version in games. Other MDers in the forum also did great things with this feature... so credit to NAM team for their hard work  ;D

ETS 2 is indeed a nice game... you know that I'm a little bit familiar with European major city location and highways thanks to it  :P . Also thanks for the good luck  :)

The construction of the expressway/highway back in 90s leaving several minor roads that crossed the highway disconnected, leaving the dilemma of major highway project in the dense area like southern Meriah. Although, most of newer highway project in Karasem overcome the situation by building the streets in the side of highway to avoid disconnecting the minor roads by divert them to the nearest crossing.

Meriah government did plan to build the light rail in pararel with the expressway since 2015 in order to fulfill the commuter around the city needs although this plan seems to be shelved for now as the city government focused on expanding Meriah Mass Rapid Transit System (M2RT) which seems more successful to bring more people around city to use public transit.

Closer look in Meriah Outer Ring Road (image rotated 90 degree). the government considered to build the light rail parallel with this highway.

As for the public transit, Kelan at this point dont have any access toward any mass transit, just several routes of city buses and paratransit toward Jatibening or Pemogan. In future, M2RT plan to expand a mass transit system which is a metro toward airport through Kelan.

+===============================+

a little bit trivial that the Name Kelan is actually taken from a village in south Bali which literally next to the airport as well...

In other hand, I should prepare for annual update about holiday traffic in Karasem now. as it will come within 2-3 weeks...  :-\ so... stay tunes for it  ;D

I think you have that touch to create these kind of cities and for that reason I enjoy every time that I come here  :thumbsup:

Thank you! its almost been 7 years for me from the start of this Southeast Asian Styled cities series which I named it as Karasem. you know what, I find myself rahter hard to make it almost feel like kinda impossible at the start to make this style. but then again, there is a MD back in 2008 (http://sc4devotion.com/forums/index.php?topic=5078.0) that I find my self challenged to create myself the city in the style where I do see everyday. and thats how I try to create it. The hardest part of this type of city is the shortage of plugins on this style...... yeah I underline that since that what suffer me a lot here  :-\ . the possible workaround that I can do is just use the closest looking stuff which I find come from Japanese stuffs and thats not just it, because if I use it directly I find myself the city is way to developed. thats how I start to produce a lot of lots that I never publicly released since the number of dependencies just too many. (you can just ask me if you want btw ;) )
and yeah, I have to say my east asian cities, mostly the suburban one although it might partially inspired by yours I found yours better than mine.
Anyway long reply, thanks a lot for your statement, appreciate it a lot!  :)

Another great update. I love the sprawl of the suburbs - you've done a great job getting that organic and realistic look along the sides of the highways. The night scenes are fantastic as well :thumbsup:
Thank you! The suburb of that area really inspired from where I live since its just located outside of main city and it still has several undeveloped areas as it shown in the update. Actually last update (as it suggested by the title) want to be focused at night but I can't find any inspiration for night shot. Later I end up just include it in the update even it just smaller part of it.

+=====================+
I want try to do some news report concept in this update since it might be more suitable in that concept...

Update 45: Pre-Holiday Infrastructure Update June 2017

About 2 weeks before the Ied holiday in Karasem, national government via the minister of Transportation check the infrastructure readiness for the intensive holiday traffic period. From last year holiday period, its been predicted that the number of automobile user for this year period increased by 12.43%.
Every year Karaseman mostly from major metropolitan area like Cibebek and Meriah Metropolitan Area travel back toward their hometown.  As from last year, one of the problem lies in Kedawung Exit of Meriah-Malang Bawah Expressway as there a lot of traffic bounding toward the south.
(https://puu.sh/wgUyP.jpg)
Expressway network in Western Karasem as in 30 May 2017, the blue one is the operating route while the dashed light green is the planned route. The brown one is Malang Bawah-Purwasari Expressway which currently under construction.

Malang Bawah-Purwasari Expressway is a total 127 km long highway/expressway that currently built to connect the city of Malang Bawah in North Cikulon Province toward Purwasari in Central Cikulon Province. Purwasari itself remains a major destination toward the travelers in holiday homecoming period. Last year the traffic in the National Route 1 in Sumberjati badly jammed due to the high volume from Meriah direction either toward Purwasari or Tanjung Bambu in South. As for 10 June 2017, several section of highway readily to be operated although most of them just functional (as it not in full service) and some just not ready at all to be used in this year holiday travel season.
(https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4253/35089308831_a024eb01ca_o.jpg)
A Construction Project operational car inspecting Expressway section in Pabean area, Malang Bawah (STA 23+800). The highway section between Malang Bawah with Batusari mainly already asphalted but only 2 lanes northbound instead of full 4 lanes.

With the partial operational of this expressway as functional road hopefully it will distribute the traffic toward Purwasari to use the less used east coast route instead of heavily used west coast route as the expressway will help the connection between both national route. the existing road between Malang Bawah toward Kembengan in East Coast is a less favorable low capacity 2 lane intercity road from Batusari toward Kembengan with rather windy roads because of the hilly nature on this area.

Expressway passing through Nempel Town in Malang Atas Regency near Batusari (STA 34+100).

Current available route (excluding the under construction expressway) toward Purwasari mainly is using National Route 1 from Malang Bawah toward Sumberjati and turn to east using National Route 20 toward Purwasari. This automatically merge the traffic toward Purwasari with traffic toward Tanjung Bambu
(https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4262/35053773572_2e65ab2ea4_o.jpg)
Part of expressway done the concrete layer of the road in Tualang Baru, Malang Atas Regency (STA 37+000).

Current progress as for 10 June 2017, the work on the land clearance 99.2% done toward Purwasari, just several part remains problematic while the earthwork mostly done from Malang Bawah toward the border of Central Cikulon Province. Pavement work currently partially done from STA 00+000 in Malang Bawah toward STA 63+390 in Kembengan, while the remaining part still made of base ground layer.

The expressway passing though the forest in Malang Atas Regency (STA 48+300)

Part of the expressway which already paved will be used for the functional road in this holiday season in order to relieve the overly congested national route 1.

ps, if you want to check how I do the holiday traffic update last year, it actually up but in Indonesian only which can be found in this post:  https://www.kaskus.co.id/show_post/577a23cc2e04c8206d8b4568/350/-

It's actually vibrant with lives and details !
Excellent choices of textures and use of MMPs for the construction of the highway also.

Welcome back and thank you! well as I said in previous update (or maybe few updates before) I will try to keep balance between both theme as well as trying to supply the mod of Southeast Asian style since the mods in this theme is really lacking  ()sad() . Maybe why everyone prefer my Southeast Asian Style is because those cities made based on my experience while the East Asian Style mostly based on what I know which I havent been there already.... Well TBH I prefer much more to create East Asian at this moment but yeah its kinda lame since I feel it keep same each other.. so I try to balance both anyway and improve as much as I can

Alright... more news styled update? there might be several same areas from previous updates showed again in this update...

Update 46a: 2017 Holiday Traffic Report

Introduction: As it's 2 days before Eid in Karasem, many people go to their hometown to celebrate ied with their big families. most of the travelers come from major cities like Meriah, Cibebek and Kota Baru toward hometown. as for 2017 prediction from both Cibebek Metropolitan Area and Meriah Metropolitan Area, about 32% of travelers go to Central Cikulon Province (Capital Purwasari), 27% to South Cikulon Province (Capital: Tanjung Bambu), 20% go to Ketapang Province and other places in Northern Island, 18% toward various places in North Cikulon Province (Capital: Meriah) and the rest go to other provinces. The tradition also occurs in other places in Karasem but mostly in Western Karasem which is much more populated than eastern part.
(https://puu.sh/wsdXl.png)
Map of Western Karasem (in case you wondering)

Last year, the peak season for the hometown bound traffic is D-3 of Eid while this year its predicted to be D-2 which is 23/6 due to the national holiday start within this friday. For the anticipation beforehand, National government from Ministry of Transportation and Ministry of Public Works launch additional services such as extra train trip from Major cities stations, ticket discounts, advanced traffic management planning, until the the launching of the functional-only-serviceless-highways. Big Trucks except for fuel, food trucks as well as the minor trucks are banned from the main road in 1 week (21/6-29/6) during the eid holiday season in order to avoid additional congestion in roads.

First report from the air transport report... Although its less preferred due to its price much higher than other modes, air transport passenger from Meriah this year increased by 18.3% as suggested by the number of ticket sold. Today from KMIA (Kota Meriah International Airport), predicted about 130k passanger flew, higher than yesterday number which is 120k.

Next, we go to the Cibebek Raya Station to check the rail transport which is the main station on Cibebek Metropolitan Area. Passengers come with their family few hours before the trains departing, some of them waiting in the front of station as well as the intercity train platform. Today its predicted about 26.129 passenger will depart from this station toward another cities. This afternoon, Minister of Transportation visited the station to check the situation for the Rail based transportation. This year Karasem Railway, national railway company launched the new DMU services toward Tanjung Pojok Port Station which hopefully will fulfill the passenger demand toward Ketapang Area from Cibebek. As for station itself, platform allocation for the Intercity Trains increased by disabling the Kota Baru-Cibebek Line Feeder during the Eid season.

Now the report of road transportation which dominated by the personal motor vehicles like Sedans and SUVs.
First toward the Report from Sumber Rejo Toll Gate of Meriah-Kota Baru Expressway in Kemayoran, North Cikulon Province. Congestion reported about 8km from the toll gate in Meriah direction as well as 5km in Kota Baru direction. in order to relief the congestion, toll road operators, add aditional gate instead of 12 normally available into 15 in single direction. Currently its been advised that the travelers from Cibebek-Kota Baru area who want to go toward Purwasari to use the eastern coast route which is less used than west coast route of Cikulon in order to relief the traffic in Sumberrejo and later Kedawung in Malang Bawah. Meriah-Kota Baru Expressway itself is rather special than other highway/expressway around Karasem where they been used heavily in both direction in this holiday season because its connect 2 major metropolitan area in Karasem which is Kota Baru-Cibebek Metropolitan Area with Meriah Metropolitan Area.

Traffic in Meriah-Kota Baru Expressway near Sumber Rejo IC, which is 2km away west from the toll gate. can be see that cars from Meriah queuing to pay in the toll gate.   

Next we go to Kedawung area which become the worst nuisance on last year holiday season traffic. Kedawung is a town in south of Malang Bawah City, North Cikulon which currently the end of West Cikulon Expressway (currently Meriah-Malang Bawah Expressway) where its used mostly from every traveler from Meriah or even Cibebek who want to travel toward Central and South Cikulon Province. Currently the traffic jam already 23km long toward Malang Bawah JCT, intersection of the unfinished Malang Bawah-Purwasari Expressway which is worse than last year (20km). the traffic itself already 7 hours jammed in this expressway.

Kedawung exit intersection meeting with the National Route 1 as Cikulon West Coast Route.

Main problem of this traffic is the meeting with the national route traffic which is rather congested, the existence of "pasar tumpah" in Kedawung town center as well as the railway crossing nearby the exit. Currently local officers manage the traffic by diverting the traffic from Central Cikulon toward Malang Bawah into the Kedawung Bypass in the west of the city although this solution not a concrete one since the traffic still pretty bad in this area.
(https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4212/35442293146_d85cf569c2_o.jpg)
Kedawung Bypass in the west of town, currently as one way route.

As for the traffic in national route 1 itself remains rather congested with the high volume and the overcrowded gas station which used as the rest area for the travelers, at grade rail crossing and "pasar tumpah".
(https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4242/35442290046_3f4d91f8c3_o.jpg)
Traffic in Lingkar Karangrejo, a road bypassing the town of Karangrejo in Central Cikulon.

Next is the unfinished Meriah-Malang Bawah Expressway which partially opened in order to relieve the traffic in Kedawung. As stated before, this highway is far from finished as it only opened as emergency way in Eid Season this year. This functional-only-serviceless-highway really badly received in safety and other road aspects including its very dusty condition and bumpy roads but remain opened due to high demand on this route. as the result speed in this road is very limited to 40 km/h and this road closed past dawn and the traffic redirected to Malang Bawah-Batusari Main Road (National route 23).
(https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4236/35095644430_f6334cb076_o.jpg)
The unfinished expressway with traffic in Peganjuran District, Malang Bawah Regency

Several accident reported in this road. atleast since the opening of this road, its been 4 accident involving the crashed into rollover cars in the side of road. As a result today at 16:28 this expressway closed since Peganjuran IC due to another incident in this road.

Next report is from the Cikopo Area in North Cibebek Regency. Cikopo area previously known as the traffic jam area on every year holiday season for the travelers heading toward Tanjung Pojok port to cross to Ketapang Province. With the completion of Cikopo-Tanjung Pojok section of Cibebek-Tanjung Pojok Expressway in April 2015, the traffic not a major problem in this area except for the toll gate pay.

Last, we go to the Tanjung Pojok Port where the travelers toward Ketapang crossing from Cibebek Province. Tanjung pojok port operate additional dock for the car ferry which total currently 6 docks operating in this ferry crossing. as for today the peak, the port crossed about 18,610 cars and buses with total passanger is 167,177 people crossed adding the motorcycle and pedestrian users.

nah I mean the opened unfinished highways are actually inspired from real life which is the recently opened for eid traffic Brebes-Semarang Toll Road (https://en.tempo.co/read/news/2017/06/20/055886150/Ministry-Advises-Home-Comers-to-Drive-40kmh-in-Toll-Roads).

As in real life, the main railway station which serves intercity trains is really crowded near eid here. even the train ticket need to be bought months before if you dont want to left out (out of ticket).

Also, big congrats on reaching classics, well done! &apls &apls &apls

+--------------------------------------------+
Before on to the update, I have to say that this update actually really out of date if compared to the happening of this in real life which happened last week (June 30) (https://s.kaskus.id/images/smilies/hammers.gif). I do plan to release this update at June 30 but for some reason (mostly my laziness), I end up not doing anything since last week and post it now. (https://s.kaskus.id/images/smilies/smilies_fb5ox6pkrrrw.gif) . also please note that this update not really done well like 45a/b and 46a as my mood already left this kind of event based update.

Update 46b: 2017 Return Traffic Report

After the the homecoming travels all around the nation, now everyone go back to their daily life city. Like how the hometown bound traffic last week, now the traffic congestion happened inbound major cities like Meriah and Cibebek.

First lets see how the situation in the Gateway toward Cibebek, which is in Cibebek-Tanjung Pojok Expressway. Near the city, people who just come back from Ketapang now heading toward their home again causing a long queue in Krajan Toll Gate, Cibebek which is the main toll gate for this expressway from Cibebek.
(https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4237/35645491451_046e37e3f0_o.jpg)
Cars queuing for pay toll at Krajan Toll Gate in Cibebek.

Next we go to the area near Sumber Rejo Toll Gate of Meriah-Kota Baru Expressway in Kemayoran, North Cikulon Province. High volume of cars come from both direction either from Meriah or Kota Baru.
(https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4020/34936685304_20d4d5a319_o.jpg)
Queue of vehicle toward Sumber Rejo Toll Gate.

Up next, Malang Bawah area which is the main issue on last week traffic as Kedawung exit traffic jam reached more than 25km just to get into the main road. In order to relieve the traffic during this "returning" period, Kedawung highway entrance toward Malang Bawah-Meriah Expressway closed when the queue reach longer than Kedawung bypass intersection and the traffic diverted into the city of Malang Bawah where they can get into the highway from Malang Bawah Selatan IC or Malang Bawah Utara IC. As for today, the limit has not been reached as the Kedawung IC still opened for the people from Cikulon Tengah.

The functional emergency highway (Malang Bawah-Purwasari Expressway) opened for the traffic onward Malang Bawah direction since today morning. same with yesterday, car speed limit still 40 kmh in this highway.

Last we go toward the Tanjung Pojok area, the ferry port connecting Cibebek Province with Ketapang Province. Today the number of ferry users increased 70% than yesterday and it estimated to be increased again in the peak of return traffic tomorrow (1/7).

Thanks for being the one of two likes and the only comment of my previous update  :-[ (as I write this) . Well its all about the difference of perspective RL in general and SC4 as art or something like htat.. well unfortunately most of intercity railway in Cikulon still single tracked (except with the one mentioned in update 25b)

+----------------------------+
Let me honest about what I think about the last update.... Its between that the update is just too terrible because the similarity with previous one that cause people not really interested on it or maybe the whole thing just too normal or too many edits.....

For the elevated platform have you had a look at the lot in the LotEditor? And do you BAT or are you interested in learning to BAT? I made an overhanging prop as my first BAT project and it wasn't too difficult. I just made a flat filler piece for my industrial areas which is very basic but the platform and the shelter and the fence don't look too complicated - could be a fun project?

This update mostly based on the last run of 205 Series Train in Yokohama Line back in 23 August 2014. Although in this update, the run is not full where the full Mizawa Line run: Akitsu-Okura (based on Yokohama Line Hachioji-Ofuna) the last run is from Hashimoto Station - Mizawa Station (inspired by Machida Station-Yokohama Station).

There're several station on route not shown: Amagi Station (between Hashimoto and Mizue) and Higashi-Mizawa Station (Between Iguchi and Mizawa) because I havent finished the area.  ()sad() but hopefully I'll post it later as different update.

Long intro, here's the update  :popcorn: . If there's something is rather incorrect about thing I dont know, please tell me. And credit for several picture I took from Internet as writen

I usually not a big fan of the Japanese scenes (lot of small houses upon each other, maybe cultural differences), but I like these pictures... :) So nice work! :)
What is that railway station (Hashimoto Station) on the first picture and where can I found it. Same question for the last big station as well on the last ingame picture.

Thanks!

A beautiful tribute to the 285 series !  :) A lot of details everywhere and especially a great complexity in the transport infrastructures.
I love the few onlookers who watch the train from the platform and from the 1st floor of the station on the 1st pic, excellent detail.  &apls &apls &apls
I love also the pics 8 and 12, both very realistic and on the 12th particularly the buildings seem perfectly suited to the layout of roads and railway.
May I know what is the white big tower in front of the station on the first photo?

Quote from: NanamiThanks! well not really that much. what actually happened is that I delayed update 46b too much causing the next mini update of Nakahara (EP8) come really close while the latest teaser is posted after I read the news about the event that I was waited to trigger this update which is the shipment of Tokyo Metro 6000 series trains to here.
Anyway looking forward for your MD update as well!  ;D
My next update is in quite a while, I'm preparing a lot of things at the same time! :-[

Very beautiful pictures, your city is really dense it is magnificent! The railway is great, I just think you could use this trick to densify the traffic: Simtropolis (http://community.simtropolis.com/omnibus/simcity-4/tutorials/how-to-cars-appearing-in-all-cameras-or-disappearing-completely-from-view-better-perfomance-and-more-about-graphicrulessgr-r277/)

Keep up the good work, it's always a pleasure for the eyes! :popcorn:

Shin-Akashima is a major city central in Nishi Ward. This area recently rapidly developed due to the opening of Tokai Shinkasen Shin-Akashima Station alongside with the Tokaido Main Line Shin-Akashima Station in 1979. The initial plan of Tokai Shinkansen was to put the station in the Akashima original city central, but instead it moved to Nishinarisawa-cho (which renamed Shin-Akashima-cho) in order to save money from land clearance and engineering design of the route as the route ends up in Arakawa instead of Akashima. As the link to the city center, people from Tokai Shinkansen can use Akashima Subway Kochisa Line or Tokaido Main Line from Shin-Akashima Station.

Neighboring area like Narisawa-cho also pretty much developed alongside with the presence of Shin-Akashima Station. Narisawa Station of Kirishin Line renamed into Higashi-Shinakashima Station in 1979. Although the distance of this station is about 500m from Shin-Akashima Station, it still pointed as a transfer point due to the presence of underground walkway toward Kochisa Line Station

My next update will not be on an Archipelago, but maybe I'll do something again in the same style to next time.

Magnificent update by the way, I always like the selection of buildings that you make, the small canal also gives the cachet to the neighborhoods around, and as usual the transport networks are always beautiful to see! Good work! &apls &apls

Have to say that last update has too many picture IMO (total 37 pictures), I might limit myself 15-20 pictures for one update in order to save people bandwidth viewing the pages with a lot of pictures (such as last page). Unfortunately I got like total 57 pictures for update 24  :-[ , I decide to split this update into 3 entries which will be posted (hopefully) in very close time between

Anyway this update actually concurrent with my 976's post (you know my old user name right?  :P )

Nakahara 24.0: Imaizumi-cho, Akashima

https://www.youtube.com/v/2UY49wTAjbk

Imaizumi-cho (今泉町) located just in east from Nojiri-cho which showed in previous update. not much difference with Nojiri-cho this area  dominated with dense residential area of Akashima. Kogame Line, the northern inner loop line of Akashima runs in this area.

Kogame Line's Imaizumi Station. Featuring e231 series train. Imaizumi Station located one station in the east after Nojiri Station.

Yet another view of Imaizumi-cho, this time more to west

Area around Imaizumi Station mostly covered by residential houses instead of commerical district as in other station in Kogame Line (including upcoming Miyashiro Station).

I always enjoy your updates - especially following the trains as they run around your region.

In this update I also really like Imaizumi Park and, even more so, the triangle one against the diagonal road in the picture below it.

Thanks! its the result of using the sidewalk mod from Neko. although I find it rather too bright (and originally has blue light color) so I photoshop it a little bit.

Nakahara 24.3: "Nightfall ~ Evening Stars" (Amakusa-cho, Akashima)

https://www.youtube.com/v/w4wVVa82x7o

Another day in Amakusa-cho (天草町), area in Nishi ward, Akashima. Its a rather windy day today as it almost entering fall season.

Area in central of Amakusa-cho

For people who want to find a rather easy access apartment and close to city center, Amakusa-cho might be one of a good choice as it located inside the loop line (Kogame Line) of Akashima.
(https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4441/35926956734_c43149c868_o.jpg)
Higashi-Amakusa Intersection in eastern Amakusa-cho

Although it might not be a good idea if you dont want a quiet neighborhood. This area almost lively 24/7, partially because the presence of Akashima Expressway Chuo Line in the south of this area.
(https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4401/36364647480_2596417d1a_o.jpg)

Not forget to mention, this area close toward mass transit, where Imaizumi Station of Kogame Line located in the north of this area.

Or else, Yatsuzawa-cho which located in east of Amakusa-cho is another good choice to live in inner city

Night shots are indeed wonderful, they have their charm with those different light colours :)

I looked trough last several updates and I think I really like the density in those updates. Everything looks so packed-up. All highways and railways cutting trough the developement really show this (like Akashima Expressway in this update or similiar one in Nojiri-cho).

Thank you! the light colours comes from the LRM which used by the Neko Japanese Street Side mod... I have to give credits

where this really give the details of the city.. and also I did a little bit of photoshop on it so it doesnt looks dunny

with the blue color...

Actually its still rather not completely same like in real life where the highway stacked above a main road (where here

just in side of road due to the sc4 limitation) but anyway I try to make it so not sure if it works or not...

Nakahara  25n: "Non Directional Art" (Mitsuya, Akashima)

https://www.youtube.com/v/KL-S2_5wFwc

(quiet an intersting thing that the song above samples similar sound as one of sc4 mayor mode music)


As a mosaic of the Akashima city, the city grow since early 17th century when Suzumoto Clan rule the Hasaki Domain of the area.The city however suffer devasting of earthquakes and tsunami multiple times including the latest one in 2014.Akashima grow into major metropolitan area of Nakahara with rather non-planned chaotic pattern but managed to emerge as a well developed city in end of 20th century...

Shiraigawa (白井川町), Naka ward(中区) one of the densely developed area in central Akashima near the main downtown core of the city. As for the public transit access to the area, Akashima Subway Mitsuya Line built in 1983 to improve connectivity of the area.

Yes, you should include some temples in the middle of everything. I'm curious about your region. Are you building your region in a real japanese map ?

In my case I feel obsessed about how the region looks, especially with some artificial islands... Japanese cities have a very own appearance and it's hard to imitate.

This is so pretty! I really love the colorful night shots (is that a mod?). I love seeing Japan cities on here.

Reminds me how many Japanese buildings I don't have in my game yet.

It has been 2 years without this tradition due to the travel limitation imposed by the government but finally the limitation partially lifted with the pandemic died down in Karasem. These travelers come from the major metropolitan areas such as Meriah Metropolitan Area and Cibebek-Kota Baru Metropolitan area.

This year peak of hometown bound traffic predicted to take place on Day-3 (29/4) to Day-2 (30/4) of eid. Based on the observation, the number of travelers keep increasing since this morning. Ministry of Transporation enacted several policies in order to avoid long traffic jam. These policies includes the contraflow on several expressway including Meriah-Malang Bawah expressway, Muara Karang-Krangan Expressway, Kota Baru-Bankalan Expressway and Cibebek-Cikaas Expressway. Other policy enacted include the odd-even rule of the car license number that can use the highway on selected time. However due to the network capacity limitation and the number of traveler is very high, traffic congestion hit main lines throughout the country.

First report today is from area around Malang Bawah, Cikulon Utara Province. Malang Bawah-Purwasari Expressway ever since the completion on 2018 has been a major relieve on the bottleneck of route around Malang Bawah where the Meriah-Malang Bawah Expressway ends. Situation are mostly smooth despite on high traffic volume using this route to reach Purwasari and areas on Central and South Cikulon Province.

Next report is from the Meriah-Kota Baru Expressway. This motorway is the main route that connect 2 major metropolitan area of Karasem, Meriah and Cibebek-Kota Baru. Traffic are known to be congested from both direction due to the high volume. The Expressway operator PT Jalan Tol Karasem temporary disabled the Sumberrejo Toll Gate as the transaction now combined for both section of this expressway (Meriah-Kemayoran and Kemayoran-Kota Baru). The opening of Kota Baru-Meriah High Speed Rail which was constructed in cooperation with Teiko in April 23 alongside this route has helped alleviate the traffic demand on this very crowded route on this season as the ticket of trips from April 28 to May 4 has been fully booked as of today.
