I'm a fan.  The winding road is very well done.  The rocky shores are also good looking.  I can't really find anything to criticize, but we all know that there is no such thing as perfect, so I'm gonna say that I don't like the colour of the water.  $%Grinno$%  It seems a tad bit off.  Don't take it too hard though.  You still get top marks. :D

The reformed church of Monea was build between 1870 and 1881 and restructured in 1996.
In front of the church, you can see the old city gate from 1850. The city wall was destroyed in 1905 during the second big city fire, only the massive gate was left over.
The ruins of the city wall were carried away by citizens bit by bit.
Today the gate is under monument protection but sadly the plans for a complete restauration are still missing.

Very nice.  I particularly like the marketplace by the church.  It kind of reminds me of the German city Aschaffenburg where they put a road underground for a few hundred feet so they could build a vast plaza or marketplace in front of the castle.  It also helps that you placed lots of people, which gives it that bustling "pedestrian zone" look.  The train station looks very modern, how old is the town in general?  You pay a lot of attention to detail, for example I noticed that you use those concrete poles with chains to separate the road from the pedestrian area to discourage pedestrians from crossing in areas where there is no crosswalk.  I wish the traffic engineers here in the states would buy into those things, but as long as we cling to our on-street parking, it can't really be implemented effectively.

That was a huge update, and I greatly enjoyed getting to know Monea. You certainly left no detail for the imagination - everything was accounted for!
The picture of the old church ruins and its surroundings was simply stunning! I cant wait for the next update :)
Thanks for the compliment. I like small details. I build slowly, but rich in detail ()stsfd()

 Fantastic update.
I really like the cable car that goes across the river.  Great idea and don't be surprised if I try something like that in my MD/city. ;)  The paths along the side of the river looks great as well.
An all around great pleasure to look over! &apls

It's an amazing work, but I find it a bit to empty for a little city :thumbsup: If you see what I mean? Well, it's too "spaced", the W2Ws are not near enough. ;)

OH NO!  ()sad()

Good luck fighting this cursed infection Framly. In light of your OSITM status at the time of infection, I propose we make this, the month of October, Prop Pox Awareness Month (http://www.wiki.sc4devotion.com/index.php?title=Prop_Pox).  ::)

Here, have a ribbon:

Oh no. I had the same issue. I am sorry but I can not make you any hope that it can be fixed.  :-[
I ended up deleting the city file and importing it again from a freshly rendered region. All my backups did develop the pox, too. As far as I understood, if you had the offending prop in your plugin folder only once when you opened the tile, it is doomed. I am just waiting for it to happen in other tiles, too.

I love I love I love!! I saw that you wrote that: "The home of Gironde Mios, the Football-Club plays in the 6th French League." The 6th French League which you mean is the "Division Honneur". It's the "first" under division of the regional divisions. Because it's like this:
Ligue 1, Ligue 2, Nationale, CFA1, CFA2 and then the regional divisions (which has 6 under divisions) and the departementals disctricts (which has 6 under divisions in the region where is The Principality of Rondnoir, Aquitaine). I hope you understood this little course of french football $%Grinno$%

Well, the "Roaring 60's" of Mios, I think you speak about the "Trente Glorieuses (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trente_Glorieuses)" (and in french: Trente Glorieuses (http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trente_Glorieuses)) in France. I think it's that, because I see a lot of blocks of flats ^^

Otherwise, it's wonderful, "magnificole" as says our president :D

It looks absolutely excellent.  Did you design Le Mayne Station by yourself, or is it available somewhere publicly.  The customized content you use adds so much situational character to your city, as opposed to tossing a bunch of generic fit-anywhere pieces together.  The one suggestion I have, is that the private school doesn't seem to fit its surroundings all that well.  It looks like it belongs in a more suburban environment, but no worries.  I still give this update an A+

@Badsim: Nice to see you visit my Rondnoir and i hope you like my next pictures...

...

my first mayor Mode plopable (TSC Props)



Sure I do !  ;D you know as I'm fan of that kind of simplicity and complexity at the same time to get such natural result ... :thumbsup:  I would have simply removed all stuff coming with the wall set . The MMPloppable is for Manchou's cows , isn't it ? (They are too regularly spaced  $%#Ninj2 )
That vineyard reminds me Burgundy , a lot ... even more than Bordeaux ... ::)  Well , it doesn't matter that much as your Sims have surely  good wines to drink !  :D

Yeah , these are the pictures why I decided to register to Simforum.de ... as you always post your updates in advance there . I'm going to repeat what I told you there :

« Firstly , I hope you'll forgive me for speaking english , as I don't speak German at all (and I don't trust on-line translation tools )

I've decided to come here regularly to see your updates , as it seems they're a lot in advance compared to Devotion's ones ... Absolutely fabulous work ! There's all I love so much since always with SC4 in your pictures ; so much little details to look at ( and so properly detailed ! ) , and , most of all , all these little original scenes you're adding everywhere . Your MD is unique , so alive , so vibrant ... to tell you the truth , there's a very long time that I haven't been that much impressed by a MD ( and a MDer ... )

Congratulations !

You may know that a TSC RuralPack is going to be released soon ; 24 HD Mayor Mod Ploppables , some of them being seasonal . Well , I can't wait to see how you'll play with it !
I'll come back to see again your amazing work of love , not sure I'll comment again as I wouldn't like to bother that beautiful community with my approximate english ... but I needed to let you know that I'm there , totally seduced by your amazing skill ! »


Really nothing to change !  ;D

I've just gone through all of the pages of your md with my mouth open :o. i need to take a sip to moisten my mouth again :)
and this is my first reply ever on sc4devotion! i can't resist. the pictures you show make me do it. I believe every single scene you show one them. they are so real. i have never seen such beauty in every part of the game. there are great nature players and great city players and even great players combining the two ways, but what you provide here is (speaking from my piont of view) absolutely fascinating! brilliant! definitely one of the oxtraordenary-est players.

First off, I must comment on the farms and the vineyards, they look absolutely breathtaking. You did not spare any detail - its like a real life shot.

Your castle and Middle Ages development also look beautiful, and very original. The way you've set up the countryside around them, also beautiful.

Father of Saint Bernard of Clairvaux, François of Clairvoux signed and sealed in 1157 a deed of gift by Prince Henri of Bordeaux. He lived in the then small castle on the Eyre River. The romanesque building in the basement of the house Clairvoux are still preserved. The castle was built in a strategic location. Surrounded on three sides by the Eyre River, stands out the fortress. The builders were based on the architecture of the natural conditions.

The castle was expanded further and further.By brisk trade in wines and skillful diplomacy led to the imposing castle. This is also the birthplace of Saint Bernard of Clairvoux.

The name "Mariae" is based on a legend of the daughter of Bernard's XI. of Clairvoux. Mariae should be drowned at age of 16 in the wake of Eyre River and her body remained missing(in~1568). It has spread the legend that she was banished to the depths and may only appear as a mermaid again.

Mariae should have been spotted on a nearby rock. She was sitting on the rock and was combing her long golden hair and lured unwary sailors with her songs and her beauty.

I love all the details.  Stairs to the bridge above, stone walls and one of my favourites is the water tunnel to the river.  Everything fits together so nicely and so realistic.  I can't find anything that I would change, nor do I see anything over done.  Just perfect my friend, I love it all!

Of course I want to share my ideas, so have made a little tutorial how to create a realistic cornfield in a few steps..

Tutorial
-MMP(MayorModeplopable) Cornfields-

No annoying Lots, no annoying work with diagonal parts. That allows gridless work with the corn-props.

What we need(only for the barley field):
Paeng's SPAM Addon Pack Vol01 1.0 (http://www.simtropolis.com/forum/files/file/26124-paengs-spam-addon-pack-vol01/) + Dependencies
HBS Tropical Flora Pack (Mayor Mode) 1 (http://www.simtropolis.com/forum/files/file/24399-hbs-tropical-flora-pack-mayor-mode/)
SG Tractor MM Ploppables BSC (http://sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=1957)
BSC Farm Fields - SG Revised (http://www.sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=955)

optional:
Franky's Rural List (http://www.simforum.de/showpost.php?p=4089107&postcount=369) for the planting with trees, bushes and other MMPs
SC4 Model Tweaker (http://sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=2072)

For my purposes, the grain models are unfortunately too large. Using the Tweaker to shrink models. In my example, the grain models are a little smaller than the download version.

Let us begin..

A normal field in Gassian ..
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg64.imageshack.us%2Fimg64%2F7237%2Ftut1g.jpg&hash=4e4f8fead3a8391fa18a6eb69c788e3297cfbeff)

We begin to limit our field with the HBS Mode and set individual Mudfields(BSCFarmFields-Mud), especially at the beginning of the field.
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg6.imageshack.us%2Fimg6%2F1675%2Ftut2fz.jpg&hash=f7ad6b08d6f279ef7d67712146c89fa3d8787fe7)

Now we create some details. We plop harvesters and tractors on the Mudfields(SG Tractor).You can create some simple 1x1 lots with the LE that make a field more realistic...Simple scenes like a bed in Cornfield (http://img823.imageshack.us/img823/8681/gassian30.jpg) or The field fire (http://img7.imageshack.us/img7/8342/gassian32.jpg)
In this example, I only have a few sunflowers on a 1x1 lot and a small Tractor scene ...
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg717.imageshack.us%2Fimg717%2F3563%2Ftut3d.jpg&hash=3f7b6e1119f10147b583d4c774880f36b67a87a4)

Next, we plant the corn(MMP Paengs SPAM) (in my example: barley)We use the boundaries of the field and create a harvest scene. The barley is planted like any other MMP Bush or Tree.
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg820.imageshack.us%2Fimg820%2F1801%2Ftut5t.jpg&hash=336f81aa016e1766837cf393ba245f7a0c147626)

We make some "cosmetics" with the HBS Mode
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg40.imageshack.us%2Fimg40%2F9067%2Ftut6f.jpg&hash=7491f6861e74d6aa368f5c95cbdcd16d77d8c5bf)

At the end we only plant some trees, bushes, etc.

Sorry if I don't stop by on SF, but I haven't so much time! :( So I will comment the city there!

It is, as always, a wonderful city you made, I love what you do and I also love the weatherstation but where are all the instruments? :P

Gassian is located in the natural floodplain of the Gammle River. The first settlement should be built around 1236. Especially craftsman and vintners settled here. The constant flooding of the Gammle River made the life hard. Beginning with the first primitive drainage canals, the inhabitants managed the water regulation of the valley.

The landmark of Gassian began in 1289 in the Romanesque style and in 1394 completed gothic, but later extended. The reason for the change of style was the great fire of 1351, parts of the cathedral was destroyed. Two 50-meter-high towers were added in the 15th and 16 Century. The cathedral is a major overhaul since 2001.

The "Liebfrauenmunster" of Gassian.

Hello Franky ,  :)

I've been very busy with RL these last months and so for the next two ones , but I didn't miss any Rondnoir's update .  How could I  $%Grinno$% , while we have visibly the same interest & preoccupation for the same SC4 facet . This village looks too rectangular ,  to tell you the truth , but when it comes to look at it on closer views ,  we have just to let us get carried away by that symphony of details ... and life , oh yes ,  that life , so much and proper life everywhere ... you know , most of the  players ( including among the best ones )  are incompetent or gauche to add life to their creations ...  ::)

OSITM particularly well deserved my friend !  :thumbsup:

I like how you incorporated Buddybud's walls and girders.  I took those girders and added them to jeronij's walls in LE, so that I wouldn't have to use that concrete base.

I noticed one small detail.  ::)
Beacons along the route are normalized, the red model (J3) is for the intersection.
It is better to use the model White (J1) or black and white pattern (J6).

Amazing update again :)

I love the beach and especially the transition between the dirt/gravel road to the beach.
"la petite moule" seems to be a nice place :) Even if the name doesn't sounds so attractive to me...
Also, the dry river looks great, how did you made that ? LE work or MMP ? I'm working on that kine of river right now but I'm not pleased with the result so far...

Everything else is perfect , swarming of good ideas ,  and a true feast for the eyes .  :thumbsup:

These pics are so great, especially this one. first i love that you used buddybuds walls as sea walls with the plop water. second, that you combined them with the stairs from the high walls set, they look seemless. third, that base texture looks awesome. this must have taken forever to get everything just right. It looks amazing.

News about Yvonne:

... the "character type" has been seven days on the run. The owner of Yvonne would like to shoot Yvonne.
It will be launched targeted search activities and the adventures of Yvonne spread throughout the country ..

- There are always rumors of a launch command -

.. The media became interested and of course, animal rights - not least the animal protection organization, "PETA" - which have set up their camp - quite to the dismay of the local farmers.

So many unseen and lovely props ... in fact , we can see some of them in « Alba Ceann mu Dheas  » too , so I'm presuming they're from Theresa ... ( she should seriously think to upload a prop pack !  ::) ) I don't know who is inspiring the other , as you don't give us that much informations about that , but that's a creative and fecund association .

The "Beyen Bridge dispute" refers to a mid-1990s and continues today controversy surrounding the construction of an additional Eyre-crossing in Beyen.

A referendum in 2005 resulted in a 2/3-majority favor of the project. Especially farmers and conservationists fought to the end against the construction of the bridge.

Only in 2007, the first excavators began their work. Reason was the dispute over the denial of the title "UNESCO World Heritage cultural landscape Eyrevalley"

Part I

Yvonne - the flight continues -

Day17: About a week there is no sign of life from Yvonne. Many thought Yvonne had already perished in the wilderness. But a mushroom picker discovered Yvonne in a clearing in the National Park "Source" and could inform the authorities.

The Palais "Bittencour" was built in between 1780 - 1805. The rural estate was inhabited until 1940 by the family Bittencour, which for centuries belonged to the landed gentry.

Because of litigations the palais stood empty for about 10 years, until 1950 - the family Cluzet bought the property. The restoration work continues to this day.

Oh, that is funny. A deer crossing and the real deer are waiting for traffic. I like the way the picture is composed with all the flowers, weeds, planted along the road. The bridge has a small graphic glitch, but I didn't see that until I started to stare at the shot. It made me chuckle. Thank you for sharing.

Beautiful pictures Framly  &apls  Those deer by the road remind me of all the big groups of reindeer that so often sit on the side of our roads, oblivious to traffic  :D  They also love to stay on the roads, especially in the winter when there is salt there to melt ice or in summer when there's too many insects in the forests. I don't suppose there's any RFR reindeer coming soon though?  $%Grinno$%

The pond and surrounding area in the most recent teaser is really fantastic as well. I love that water and it's so perfectly decorated. Looking forward to the full update  :thumbsup:

Hi Hendrik ( and Theresa ...  :) )

Since the opening of your MD , you never ceased to surprise and impress with your incomparably alive and scenic rural creations . As expected your collaboration with Theresa is a blessing and works like a charm ( More largely , thanks to the RFR Team for enriching the landscaping  possibilities - on the STEX - with such precious little things !  :thumbsup: ) . I may be not visible for some time but be sure that I'll wait eagerly behind the scene for your updates and I'll devote to your pictures all the attention they provoke and deserve : a profuse source of  inspiration , avant-gardist , indispensable . Congratulations for Rondnoir joining the Classics !

Like more than 15 000 other players , I've got that dam from Pegasus sleeping in my plugins and I consider it as an emblematic BAT , waiting for a good mountainous spot to place it but , frankly , this is its best use I've ever seen and I don't think possible to do better than that : to do something nearing that perfection is now the challenge ...  :D

The following update is stunning , as always the closest views show your precision as landscaper , Lot editor , "life adder" , while on the farest views we totally forget this is a game with a grid , and the amount of work looks crazy when we think there's no tree controller so even each single tree , like everything else , is there because you put it there  ::) ... well , a little criticism BTW : some traffic to justify that expensive ( and controversial ...  ;D ) bridge and it would have been absolutely perfect . Right now , that's "just" perfect . :P  $%Grinno$%

Uh Uh! Wowwww!   The rural scene is magnificent - majestic  - awesome (I could add more but I won't anger you) - I love it - its beautiful - the logging scenes, the trees and those trains especially the freight train - wonderful work.   I don't think I'll ever get a scene like these treats.

Post by: art128 on February 02, 2012, 12:08:25 PM
Hi Framly, nice shots you have there.

I can't decide which of the two is my favourite, as I like both a lot.

On the rural scene, I like a lot how the two trains blend perfectly with the rest of the scene. it's neither too much but just as much as needed to make it perfect. The only criticism I can make is that I'm not sure if both freight and passenger trains take the same line..

The urban scene was really enjoyable as well. That big dam is fitting very well and has a lot of charm used this way. Also, bending with these walls is a plus.

Take care

Arthur.
Title: Re: RONDNOIR ~ the small Principality ~ Beyen ~ Teaser (2.2.12)
Post by: carlfatal on February 02, 2012, 01:41:37 PM
@Arthur: normally in Europe trains for freight and passenger use the same tracks, modern freight trains run with 120 kmph.
But: Franky, you´ve mirrored the first picture, nice on one hand, cause on some french lines they drive on the left, but then i think it´s confusing car drivers...  :P

Aside from that: wonderful like always, hard to find more superlatives for a comment as You show in nearly every update.  &apls
Everything is so full of life, actually a single overview like in the last shot shows a huge amount of details and i wish to dive in and walk along the streets at the lake to see more of this. Do i really see clothelines between the houses? Perfect is the only word i know for this.
Keep it on my friend,

Beautiful update and something worthy of tribute to Girafe  &apls   I love the different walls and bridges you've used--especially the re-lots of kazuki's walls, some of my favorites to work with. I'll share mine with you if you share yours with me  ;D  In all seriousness I should just release what I have but I've been wanting to update them with seasonal flora first--and it's been a headache.

Fabulous work,

and what I like with Rondnoir, is that you can do a MD only on 1 city tile or few and to pay attention to very detail, street, neighbourhood, fields...

History:
The Beyen dam was built in the years 1950-1953 in its present form, and put into operation in 1954. The dam enlarged so that the already built in 1898-1900 "balancing pond Beyen" of his job as a flood protection system could not adequately meet. The Beyen reservoir is now a popular recreation area that is visited by anglers, walkers, boat dwelles and water sportsman. At the same time, the dam serves as a swim-lake in the summer months. In addition, a small hydroelectric plant generates electricity. His turbine is designed for flow rates of 6.5 m³ / s.

On shore there are the clubhouses of several successful sculling clubs: Brixham Sculling Club(BSC) and the Aviron Club Beyen(ASC).

Excellent set of pictures, the market square looks perfect. I also like the work you've been doing lately on the river and the lake using those new ploppable water peices. I tried using them but no matter how I used them they didn't look right. So it's good how you've applied them so well. &apls &apls

WOW!
Fantastic amount of detail. 
I love the river, the rail bridge and the ped bridge....it all looks great.  The sea walls that you have used some how give the illusion that at one time the river was much higher and these sea walls were really needed.
Love it all!

Ile aux Oiseaux is a small, largely uninhabited island and a nature reserve.

The island has been designated since 1924 as a nature reserve. The conservation goal is to preserve the island as a habitat for shore birds, which is dominated by gulls, ducks, wild geese and terns

In 1957 the weather and oceanographic station "Oie Sauvage" was built in a small bay.

In the north-west of the island extends over two kilometers the chalk cliffs of "Ile aux Oiseaux", which is considered the most interesting coastal scenery in the Rondnoir Bay. It is part of the National Park "Rondnoir Bay" - "Bassin d'Rondnoir"

The area below the chalk cliffs is very dangerous, especially in the winter month many rocks falling of into the Bay.
The rock is very porous. In the winter of 2006 ~ 30,000 cubic meters crashed into the sea.
Unfortunately at that time an employee of the National Authority was killed by the falling rocks.

With so many different nice areas it must have taken a lot of work! I really like the way the cliffs look, with all the fallen rock and vegetation at the bottom, the lighthouse and Yvonne's home, as well as the teaser of the next area. The only thing I'd suggest is that in some of the pictures it's hard to see where the land ends and the water begins, as if the beach just fades into clouds--just a little suggestion though  :thumbsup:

The 4th May 2002, a black day in the history of the island. The tanker "Erika" ran aground in a storm and through a leak flowed 20,000 tons of heavy fuel oil into the sea. For the bird life it was a disaster - thousands of birds have died in heavy oil. It took years to clean the beaches.

10 years later, the wreck is still on the beach - by a lack of infrastructure on the island it is almost impossible to salvage the wreck with heavy machinery. The recovery is very expensive and consuming..

Excellent work Framly, this town is very clean and nice. I love the work you've done with the retaining walls around the port area, it's very well done and the result is great. Though, I'm not sure for the use of the Parisian seawalls. I don't think they blend very well the the area. Just my two cents.

Take care!

The compass textures are from the Padrão dos Descobrimentos, a monument in Santa Maria de Belém, Lisbon, Portugal.

For 2 years, the high-rise building near the station was vacant.
It was decided after much deliberation to blow up the tower . At the same place will arises the new community center of Audenge. In addition to various offices and social services, the new city museum will be housed.

I really should pay a visit more often!

The demolition of your office block was excellent, the timing to take the photos was spot on and very realistic indeed. I've seen a few demolitions in my time! Even the setting for the office block was just right with the wide open, potentially windswept plaza area surrounding the site.

In stark contrast, a touch a glamor with the opening of the Theater was a fantastic idea.

Dunes picture are very nice. But is is a little strange to me that there are so many rocks on the dunes because the dunes are composed primarily of sand, at least from my knowledge of diferent dunes in Europe. Dunes are something I have in my mind to make some day...

About the town I like the reloted xannepan seawalls among lots of deteails. I was thinking on reloting paeng's parkings with these walls and seeing your results I think I'll do. :)

The road/avenue zebra crossing is your own lot, or you dowload from somewhere? I tried to find it but didn't... &mmm

Great picture. You just show us here the dimension of your work. I especially like the way you build your city on a little island connected to the continent with a dike. I also like the green dikes you made between the sea and houses like in the North Sea shore, very realistic. The city and the haven are also fantastic.  :thumbsup:

Just one think. I'm not fan of the way you ended the highway near the center of the town. It's look like an unfinished work. Maybe it's the effect you tried to make, i don't know.  :)

Hey Hendrik , you were right to precise it , as the HoF  tends to be a MDs cementary  :D ( or a museum , it's the same ...  :P ) . So I'm glad to see you're back and that overview is really a particularly speaking reminder about the sweep of your detailed work ... the marked out fairways snaking through sandbanks is a nice attention , rarely seen elsewhere .

Can't wait to see what's coming next from you .

We drive on the "Rue Amiell" to the old town. To the left you can see the highway access inaugurated in 1991.The section of the E121 connects Audenge with the city Biganos. The near Audenge dam replaced the ferries that are now mostly used by tourists.

Congratulations for OSITM! Nice teaser, looking to see more! But according to the previous update, the bridge looks awesome! However, it's other end is not visible and that cause an appearance that it was build only for this lake (with a lot of space around not to cross this "canyon"... Hope it's not the truth :P

Thank you very much my friends!!!! You keep Rondnoir alive with your motivating comments :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

@Themistokles: I use a GLR Texture Mod

@kbieniu7: The bridge crossing a valley - you can see it in a upcoming Update the next months

@compdude787: No doubt :) There is a incline(Cable car) between the castle and the lakeshore

@Ernestmaxis: I made the paths with my friend Mac from SFBT.

@Vizoria: I work on a entire city tile, but i always finished little areas. I started with the traffic ways and connect all construction phases to an entire City. It takes months ;)

@Girafe & kelis: The paths are MMPs of my own (it is a cooperation from MAC(SFBT) and me) I hope the SFBT release the MMP paths very soon...we have made four dífferent textures.
