They do indeed look like being from a real city!

Now, this is what happens if you give your transportation department free hands...
Just consider getting from the upper right-hand corner of that picture to the lower left-hand corner...

I think I'll take a walk...

dang is that your own sidewalk mod?

Vario80 · February 23, 2008, 06:16:27 PM

I'm deeply impressed by those pictures.
It really looks like an aerial photograph of a real city taken in the busiest hours of the day.

Stiligt smurf

I agree with what some of the others said, some of the pictures seem to be taken from a real city.
Really good work

Haljackey: Yes it's functional. All residential bats are growables. Thanks!

RippleJet: Haha yeah I see the point. I've made a few changes in that area, concerning the entangled road system

mightygoose: Nope, it's a mod made by jeronij, you can get it here. I'm using the JRJ SidewalksV3_LowWealth_allwealths.dat file.

Vario80: As real as sc4 can get

N1_2888: Grus Gott. Yeah I might enter the competition once I get around to it

Time for another update. Caution: semi tech-shots ahead

What to do: Let's fix up this area and make it functional, so commuters can access their workplace on the other side of the bridge.

Now, as far as I know, subway is the only transit network that can give working access under bridges. Henceforth, let's build a subway line underneath the bridge, using custom lots so we can sort of hide the subway look and give it a more pedestrian street look.

As you may notice, the subway lots blend in with the nam pedmal. I also used the lot resizing technique to cover up the blank space underneath the bridge

So, as you can see, it works

People are using subway to reach their jobs on the other side of the bridge

Also included a church

CasperVg · February 26, 2008, 04:42:19 AM

Very interesting method you have used there! Looking great.
