This is my recreation of Japan. I will do updates on this region. Hope you enjoy. ;)
These are the very first photos I will show of my Japan recreation.

This right here is the Aichi plain, in the Chubu region. The city that is currently there is called Mie. I will be building Nagoya later.
Anyway, this is the first update. In the next one, I will be showing the actual cities themselves from close up, and I will show my cities progress. Please comment and like! ;D
Welcome to the MD world. :)
That is a quite nice region you've shown here.
I'm looking forward to the close up. I'm interested to see the developments you'll do on Toyama and Akita. :)
You've made a great start on a lovely and challenging region map. I'm eager to see your cities in close-up views. Based on what I see here so far, I'm sure they will be beautifully crafted.
Since you wanted to see what my cities looked like, here it is.

Here is a little snippet of a suburban part of Niigata. This is not a true update, just a small one to show you a little part of what my city looks like. I'll have a true update later. Please comment and like. :)
Great start. Like what I see.
Two things:
Turn off the grid, by press G.
Turn off the UDI-icons in the UDI menu.
When showing developments, I don't mind the grid. :) However I agree with Vester about the UDI icons.
Nice work on that picture, love the area.
Nice work you have over there! Pretty interesting to see more! ;)
Looks like you've got quite a few well designed regions. Can't wait to see more close-ups. :thumbsup:
Please correct me if I am wrong; I can read some Kanji, all Hiragana and all Katakana, but is your SC4 Dev name Yomi-san? I also spent 14 years stationed in Okinawa then Yokosuka Japan. Your detail is AMAZING and your region especially in the Kanto area is spot on. Keep up the great work and I will definetly be looking out for this MD.

This is again, a suburban area of Niigata. Many houses in the area. There is a High School to the far upper left. There are some shops on the road there, and even some shops on the neighborhood streets (You see that in Japan, those family owned shops)

As you can see, the area we were just looking at was the area we were in before. Now its just a bit more developed. Mid rise apartments have begun to spring up. Probably due to the nearby train station (You can't really see it that well, but it's on the far right).

This is what Niigata looks like now. It took me a good 3 hours to build that. (Not counting the crash which made me lose ALOT)
So this update was somewhat big. In the next update, I will show you the rural parts of Niigata, and maybe even one of the other cities! Hope you enjoyed, please comment and like. And if you are wondering about where I even got the mods from, you are free to ask. :)
素晴らしい. What a fantastic start. &apls Epic use of custom buildings; good job capturing the location. As your work progresses, keep surfing the content exchanges; you'll find more and more mods and such that will help you in your recreation.
And hopefully you will be able to fix your crashing problems. Look for posts about it; over the years the community has found out how to end those.

Another update! Thanks for the comments! I finally got rid of those terrible UDI icons. They were bugging me to death. Luckily, there were no crashes this time. Next time, I will show you the other cities. There was a lot to show you in the rural Niigata area. So on to the photos.

The rural area looks great.
Would have loved to see one or two old houses by the isolated field on the train station picture. :)
Thanks for the comments!
vester: the reason why you didn't see the trains in the shot is because all the trains were making trips around in the main city. And I did download one of your trains.
Anyway, this shows some more rural snapshots. Enjoy.

Still no trains (and only a few cars) :( That brings it a bit down in my book.
Maybe change NAM automata plug-ins.
I use a plugin called: NetworkAddonMod_Automata_Plugin_Radical_Automata24.dat
That gives me a lot more traffic including trains.

This is Niigata's true downtown area. It has some tall buildings. Due to this new area, a lot more cars and trains have been driving around the city. Over 1000 people use the train (maybe even over 3000!) and there are more apartments and high rises.

This is part of the town we will be looking at; Kawasaki. It is to the left of Niigata. It is completely surrounded by mountains. A 1 lane road leads here. There is not a huge number of people leaving the city because of all the jobs here. More and more people are moving here, so the city may have to expand the road.

This is the upper part of Kawasaki. It is mostly suburbs. Even though this isn't the town center, the tallest building in town is located here. It is a hotel, called "Hotel Kawasaki". The hotel is rated 3 stars. A good place to stay if you ever decide to come to this ocean town. You can get a view of the whole entire city from the top!

This is the town center. Plenty of places to shop! There is also some industry here, more than 2500 industrial jobs! Around here lies the city's 2 schools, the city's shrine, and the local supermarket, MaxValu. To walk down here from the surrounding houses and apartments north is about 6 minutes or less. To get there from the western part of town, it takes about 4 minutes or less. The reason for the short walking distances is that the city is smaller than 1 square kilometer. Very small town.

This is another suburban part of the city. The Kawachi drugstore is off to the East. There isn't much to see on this side, mostly just houses.
This update was somewhat wordy, and that will be how some of the newer updates will be. I really just want to explain more about the city itself, so this seems more interesting. Anyway, comment and like, and feel free to ask where I got the mods from!

This is directly on the other side of the downtown. It is again, a suburban area. This is the only place in town where you can go to a pool. During the Summer, the place is PACKED. The traffic isn't that good either, as people from the other part of the city commute here.

Really nice couple updates, Kawasaki is a really nice city.
I think you should change the color of the water. It might just be an opinion, but the general consensus is that the default maxis water is... well kind of ugly. :) Look at Gobias' Seto Inland Sea (http://sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=2839), I quite like it.
Also one thing I would super love, try to work a bit the river beds and coast line. Make some parks, beach, use some seawalls (Uki's are nice, but there are of course several others. :) )
Very nice cities! &apls
Couple of pointers since you asked for it: turn off the grid when taking pictures (press 'g') and preferably turn on the shadows. Makes for prettier pictures imho. And as Arthur said the waterfronts could do with some embankments and/or ports. Other than that it's a very good region, I'm looking forward to see it develop! :thumbsup:
THIS IS NOT AN UPDATE. ()sad()
I bet this will be a huge surprise for you. I have decided... that I am starting over. I bet that you're asking, "Why are you starting over? What was wrong with your region?" I will answer that question. Unfortunately, the map was far too exaggerated. What I mean by, is that it was too small. It was so small, that I could only put a small town where Hiroshima is supposed to be.
Also, the cities. I need to improve on them a little. When the next update comes, you will see A TON of changes. This will be my second attempt at making Japan. Anyway, ﾕﾐーちゃん, signing off.
Yumi-chan,
I always thought Hiroshima was bigger than you created. Regardless, I love your Diary and your details are spot on. Hate to see you start over again and I do feel your pain as I am doing the same re-doing all my maps on a region I have been working on now for 13 years.
Good luck to you and looking forward to more updates.

Thanks dyoungyn for your comment! It must've been really bad re‐doing 13 years of work... Mine was more like a month and a 1/2... But still...
This is my second attempt at my Japan recreation. Everything is a lot bigger, and more challenging now, just the way I like it! ;D This will be a very short update as I have been very busy this week. Anyway, this update is on Hiroshima! (広島「ひろしま」) Hope you enjoy.

Where we are right here is just getting out of the main city. Still a lot of tall buildings around!
As I said, very, VERY, short update. I really didn't have anything to talk about in these areas, because there were no important landmarks or historic things yet.

Definitely better than the previous version of the city, though we saw only the suburban part for the moment. :)

This isn't an update. Nor is this a another attempt.
This is about the Hiroshima Peace Memorial! This is my very first BAT that I have shown other people. I started to BAT stuff, since I couldn't find the Hiroshima Peace Memorial, or the Museum, or the Atomic Dome. Sorta blocky, but I'm satisfy. When I rendered it in GMAX it seemed just fine!

Very nice work so far :thumbsup:. I really like your work and you have made quite an impression ;D
The Memorial that you are trying to model may not have all the necessary LODs to show up in game. There should LOD3, LOD4, and LOD5. I am only guessing here but you may have to select the Re-fit LOD's Button to get LOD3, LOD4 and LOD5.
I have attached an image of the parameters menu to help you.
Hope this helps.

In this update, Hiroshima experienced a huge residential and commercial boom. You will see below.

This is one of the areas that experienced a HUGE residential boom. The population went from 19,000, to 34,000 people in a year! And what this meant was more services and more expenses for the growing population.

This is another place of the population boom. New hi-rise danchi and apartments are showing. Hiroshima stadium is also here. (I know that doesn't look anything like Hiroshima Stadium. And there were no mods for it either, so that means that I'll have to BAT. Hopefully I will fix it. I want to have some of my own BATS in my city.)

Remember how I said in the last update that there was residential AND commercial expansion? This update will be showing some of the commercial expansion.

This is one of the places of the commercial expansion. Many offices and shops have appeared. Even with all the commercial there is here, this is NOT downtown. Downtown will be south of here, taking up 70% of a large city tile (A large city tile is 16km, medium city 4km, and a small city 1km.)

I love the pictures &apls and since you want some negative criticism.. remember to press G when you take a picture with grass in order to get the black squares invisible in the game =)
For someone who just started over on a new region, you're a fast worker. I like your approach to city building, but you might like to try for a less-griddy look. The diagonal rails do help add interest, though. Of course, I've never seen Hiroshima, so that may be the way it's built. Why not show us some RL photos of it? I might be able to help you out with BATting if you'll give me some photos of what you want and tell me what size you want them. Just send me a PM.

Messa have-a question :) What avenue mod are you using for the diagonal texture there (for the trees I mean). I looks great!
Also- Your residential and commercial districts look fantastic! I like how there is just a touch of industry (or possible those are utilities?) in the center of your city. It breaks up the sea of skyscrapers quite nicely.
And as for the criticism - I would personally recommend that you try to put in some of those smooth curve pieces for the bullet train lines (just a minor cosmetic thing though - your cities will still look good without them ;) ).
This is not an update. This is about your opinion on my city design. Let me reply first:
cmdp123789: Thanks, I will.
Jmouse: You think so? Usually, I leave a few hours for SimCity 4 (When I have time), but I guess you could say I'm a fast worker. In one of my parts of Hiroshima I used curve pieces and diagonals (new area). Se parts of Hiroshima are kind of griddy, put other parts, not so much. Thanks for asking to help out with my BATs. I really appreciate it.

This right here is a rural town in my Testing region. The point of this region is to either test out new mods or test out and see city designs before putting it into the final product. Do you think this is a good design for when I get into my rural town? Please tell your opinion. Like it, hate it, tell me.
I think that you should have the agricultural sections of the town more on the outskirts (or at least further away from the denser parts) of the city. Also, I thinks you should try zone a bit more low density, as it is a rural town. Other than that this looks pretty good. :thumbsup:

Go take a look at Japan's rural side, you'll see it isn't strange to have buildings right next to rice fields. ;)
I would advise you to grow some farms from the game. Uki made some really nice japanese farms that would look good in your creations too. I use them very often recently and they fit quite nicely in rural to urban zones. :)
You're the one from Japan, you should know better than us how to do it! ;D (just kidding ;) )
Beautiful cities, the way everything fits together is mesmerizing. Love the forests too, nice and lush (and seasonal, woo!) :)

This is what Hiroshima looks like now. It is a lot bigger now, I made some expansions. The new area is mainly residential, as even with all this new expansion, we still have 56,580 people, and 81,038 commercial and industrial jobs, so there will be a lot more residential zones in the future.

Anyway, wonderful work. This nice dense urban area is well done. I love the small shrine on that little hill in the 5th picture. I really have to do something like this in my region. :thumbsup:
Can't wait to see more of Hiroshima! :)
Sorry! I have been very inactive for a long while! There has been growth, around 18,000 people, as there are now 77,302 people in Hiroshima!

Here comes the update! (I turned on shadows. They make the city look a lot better. And even while I'm playing the game with shadows on, my PC does not lag. Yay!)
The right side of the picture is new development. The Shinkansen runs through here.

広島城（私が知っている...それは...のように見える大阪城... ()sad()）
Hiroshima Castle (広島城 Hiroshima-jō?), sometimes called Carp Castle (鯉城 Rijō?) was a castle in Hiroshima, Japan which was the home of the daimyō (feudal lord) of the Hiroshima han (fief). The castle was constructed in the 1590s, but was destroyed by the atomic bombing on 6 August 1945. It was rebuilt in 1958, a replica of the original which now serves as a museum of Hiroshima's history prior to World War II.
Mōri Terumoto, one of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's council of Five Elders, established Hiroshima castle in 1589 at the delta of the Otagawa river. There was no Hiroshima city or town at the time, and the area was called Gokamura, meaning 'five villages.' Beginning in 1591, Mōri governed nine provinces from this castle, including much of what is now Shimane, Yamaguchi, Tottori, Okayama and Hiroshima Prefectures.
When construction on the castle began, Gokamura was renamed Hiroshima, as a more impressive name was called for. "Hiro" was taken from Ōe no Hiromoto, an ancestor of the Mōri family, and "Shima" was taken from Fukushima Motonaga who helped Mōri Terumoto choose the castle site. Some accounts state that the name 'Hiroshima', meaning literally 'wide island', comes from the existence of several large islands in the delta of the Otagawa, near the castle's site.
Following the battle of Sekigahara in 1600, Mōri was forced out of the castle, retreating to Hagi in today's Yamaguchi prefecture. Fukushima Masanori became the lord of Aki and Bingo provinces (which today comprise Hiroshima prefecture, and of Hiroshima castle). However, the new Tokugawa shogunate forbade any castle construction without permission from Edo; this was part of how the shogunate kept the daimyō from gaining power and overthrowing the shogunate. When Fukushima repaired the castle following a flood in 1619, he was dispatched to Kawanakajima in today's Nagano prefecture. Asano Nagaakira became lord of the castle.
From 1619 until the abolition of the feudal system during the Meiji Restoration (1869), the Asano family were lords of Aki and Bingo provinces.
After the Meiji Restoration, the castle came to serve as a military facility, and the Imperial General Headquarters was based there during the First Sino-Japanese War in 1894-1895. The foundations of several of the GHQ outbuildings, just a few hundred paces from the castle's main tower, remain today.
The castle was destroyed in the atomic bomb blast of August 6, 1945. For many years, it was believed the castle structure was blown away by the explosion that destroyed Hiroshima, but newly discovered evidence suggests the explosion only destroyed the lower pillars of the castle, and the rest of it collapsed as a result.[1]
The present tower, constructed largely of concrete, was completed in 1958.

Great work. Yes, we would like to see more real life recreations with photos!
This is not an update.
This is about my B.A.T. work!! ;)
I got it to work quite a while ago, the Hiroshima Peace Memorial is in the game. But this is to show you my latest B.A.T.
TOTO Shopping Mall. TOTO is usually a toiletry store, but sometimes there is a shopping mall that shows up and has its name on the front and is called the TOTO Mall.

I made this because there was a lack of Japanese shopping malls in Simcity 4. There was ユニー, but the website it was on got taken down :(.
Questions for the Audience:
What did you guys think? Did you you think it is good for the second time ever BATing a real building?
Do you think I should upload this? If so, which version would you like to see more?
If you have any suggestions, please say so.
The next update should come next week, or the week after next. It is going to be LARGE update! ;D
Nice update. :)
OK, your bat is in scale, and looks good. However, the roof is bothering me.
It appears that it is a 2D texture for the roof of rooftop parking. The shadows end up falling the wrong way depending on the position it is viewed from. Also, the size of the building itself makes it seem that it doesn't have room for much more than the vehicle ramps to the roof (could be an optical illusion though).
My suggestion: change the rooftop texture to a plain asphalt roof, and go with the 2nd lot option with the large ground level parking area.
And its not just your building...I've found most of the parking lots in this game look too small to be functional.
Overall, I'd give you 4/5 on this which I would go up to a 5/5 if the roof had a different texture, and would like to have it for use in my own game. I look forward to you releasing this in the future. :thumbsup:
For a second creation, that's excellent. The scale is good as shark7 said, but I'm more concerned about the textures. To me it seems to be cubes/rectangles with a photo texture applied on them. I don't think that's the good approach for creating BAT in SC4.
Work on the details. Make the windows on the bat itself, same for the doors and the text signs. It'll look much better. Also, as cars are really difficult to make in 3D, I suggest you make the parking lot on the roof, but instead add the cars as props by making the LODs as tight as possible. :)
If you have any trouble, don't hesitate to ask. :)
I agree that the building is really excellent for a second attempt and very nice without qualification ;) If you render it in HD I expect that I'll make use of it. Lotting (including the parking space issue) and modding are a real hassle to do well. If you don't want to take the time to do that I hope you still release this but I hope you decide to put the same effort into modding and lotting your nice building as you put into your great MD ;)
Textures need a bit more work.
As Arthur said, the windows need to be set into the walls, around here they are about 5-10 cm into the walls:

On the textures:
Tone down the white, so its not so bright.
Add a gradient to the textures.
If you use Photoshop
- make a new layer,
- make a gradient in that layer, going from white to black, seen from the top.
- set the layers blending mode to multiply (http://pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com/photo-effects/black-and-white/luminosity/photoshop-multiply-blend-mode.gif)
- try different transparency settings till you find one you like.

Beautiful update. Don't worry about being away for some time, school's more important than a game. (And I say that while having failed twice my exam..)
Anyway, great update. I like the commercial streets a lot. I'll have to use them more in the future as they give a really nice atmosphere to the city. Though, that poor old building being completely blocked by the covered street.. It's a bit of a shame to see such a nice building being blocked like that.
The "Fireworks" Cafe looks like a nice place to relax.
Great update! That roofed road in the commercial area really nice! I like the commercial area too. in overall your urban area pretty realistic!
well real life always come first you know.... best luck for your test! hope you get the one you always wanted to be!
speaking about Hiroshima, I just take a google streetview tours after try to do a streetview travel from Kagoshima to Osaka.. its an interesting city, I like the city it has a nice riverside park area... also aoyama store seems very commons there right?
The covered street is a nice touch. Nice set of images as well, I'm by no means an expert on Japanese or Asian inspired SC4 cities but I do enjoy seeing them and this one seems rather good with a lot of realism.
Great update &apls The covered street is a really interesting idea and it's neat to hear you talk about your experience with places. Best of luck getting into college :thumbsup:

So that was the update! Phew! That was a lot of pictures! Sorry, no real life pictures (Because I've never been there. The information for this city was gotten from the internet) :D Well, I hope you enjoyed! Comment, and feel free to ask about what mods I use!
I would also appreciate negative criticism. If there is something you don't like, or something you think that I am doing wrong, please tell.
I like the mixture of different buildings! It feels like in a metropolis, no real end or start to urbanisation, rather a continuous stretch of built-up lands. And the MMP work on the park is great!
Considering the density, though, I would've gone for viaduct rail and the RRW perhaps, but then I don't really know anything about Japan $%Grinno$%, except for what I've seen on this forum ::). Eager to see the other tiles develop! :thumbsup:
Solid work and a great entry.

Thit is a great update! Nice work!
for some suggestion maybe get some catenary for realism toward rails, I suggest to use uki catenary: http://uki-sim.seesaa.net/article/259839686.html
also I suggest to avoid using maxis port, somy made great port set in his site but well if you think its better, you can keep it anyway...
Another good update. Very, very crowded looking to me, but considering that where I'm from you can literally look out for miles and miles of open plain, anything other than open areas look really crowded to me. ;) I do love how colorful the city turned out. It is definitely not bland or boring. :)
I did notice one thing in picture 7 that you may want to look into. In the lower left corner, it appears the concrete texture behind the brown building is over-lapping the railroad tracks. Its a graphical/texture issue, but was noticeable.
I'm back! With new B.A.T work! (The update will be coming later this week, as it is almost done)

I am hoping to make at least 50 houses and 50 apartments (There is a very big lack of japanese-style apartments, so I will be filling in that gaps.) Please, tell me what you think of it. Don't be afraid to criticize, because it will help me improve. ;) Also, could anyone tell me how to do the family prop thing? (Like how Nekopanchi-san did it with his houses) I want to do it for my housing and apartment pack, so if anyone could help me, I would greatly appreciate it!
Great to see you back with more - love your work.
Your house model is nice, but the textures are too slate. Those need to be dirtier to look more realistic. Maybe start a thread at Simtropolis in the BAT section, you might get some help to improve your textures

It is quite crowded, but somewhat low density and medium density. The thing in picture 7 I noticed as well, the reason of that was due to the placement of the train station, it is no glitch. But it does like quite bad though... &mmm

Now, on to the update for today! It is going to have a ton of pictures, to make up for my inactivity lately.
This right here is a high-up view of the city of Tagawa (田川市、ローマ字：Ｔａｇａｗａ－ｓｈｉ, which I think translates to, "Rice Field River City" in English?), a fictional city located in the fictional Tagawa prefecture (田川県、ローマ字：Ｔａｇａｗａ－ｋｅｎ). This city was made for the monthly challenge on Simtropolis, but however, I did not have enough time to complete the city, as it was only half-way done. So when I got back on a couple of months after the fact, (March) I filled in the remaining space on the 1.8 kilometers of low-level flat-space in the Southern part of the city. However, the Northern and far-eastern parts of the city have yet to be finished. Here is the region-view picture for:

There is also a hotel nearby (pink and gray building) for those who want to stay near it. Located in Minami ku.

That was the update. It was quite long, but well worth it for me, and for you guys! Comment, and feel free to ask about where I got the mods from!
I would also appreciate negative criticism. If there is something you don't like, or something you think that I am doing wrong, please tell.
Great update!!! &apls I enjoyed it very much!!!
I am so sorry that I haven't been posting recently. My last update was in March, right before April, the start of my College years. Since then, it has been much harder to find a proper balance between school and SimCity 4. But anyway, I have been working on a little something, and I think it would be good to show you.
But before that, I must reply to the comments:

1. The next update's downtown area, along with train station. The small city's name will be revealed in the next update!
Hopefully, I'll be able to get the next update down soon and be able to deliver a proper update. Thank you for viewing and Sayonara!

Very nice :thumbsup: A beautiful depiction of a Japanese town.
Nice work on the flooding! Especially like picture no. 10. And the new city seems promising :)
Nice!
Looking forward to that city tile. :)
Very nice teaser, i'm impatient to see the next ! :)
I've a question : Please, where did you get the pool close to the big grey building ( high school building i suppose ) ?
I like your combination of buildings, they complement each other very well and nothing would stick out like a sore thumb. Don't worry about keeping your pace low, after all, real life is more important :). My only suggestion would be using underpasses (maybe with FLUP pieces from the NAM) instead of level crossings in inner city areas, this might be safer and improve traffic flow, especially if you have several railway crossings in close proximity.
I missed few updates here.... the update are pretty interesting with that flood happening (too bad for the people there though). And looking forward for the city in that teaser.. :)
A very well-deserved welcome to the Best Sellers section :bnn: So sorry this wasn't noticed earlier. Excellent work on the last updates and I hope college is going very well for you :)
I like the teaser. I hope there are new pictures. I'm curious about the update!(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ld-host.de%2Fuploads%2Fimages%2F31fcecdf19b314863ecc989134f51918.gif&hash=5e9554d1c994e0da39a430c935a60130c93952b0)
