    Beautiful Work, Pat, and you just HAD to show off that that little Smiley-face crop duster, didn't you! :D
    The riverbanks look good. Personally I'd try adding a few more varieties of flora, but since I've never even experimented with TPW, I'm hardly an authority! It's just an opinion.
    Looking at the last photo, I wonder if that stream will continue over onto another city tile. I see what looks like an avenue connection even though the yellow arrows aren't visible. I have a little mod that hides them, so it isn't always possible to tell what's next door.
    Anyway, I continue to stay in the background and learn from the masters! :thumbsup:
    And HAPPY 50th BTW! &apls

    Until next time...
    Joan

    Joan thank you soo much and I will try and do more of a variety with the flora, thats one thing I live for is feed back like soo and thank you again for the support you have given me over the last few months...

I know with a little practice and time you will get this down right as well but for me I could never ever be a great cartographer as you are!!!  Thanks again for stopping in and I sooooooo agree I would love to be in Waterfalls my self neighbor in Tom_________ WI lol.....

If it was 14°F here [about 15 miles from Pat's humble abode actually, it would feel pretty balmy out :P  Spring isn't getting here fast enough &mmm

No. 50 Pat, well done my friend  &apls.

Nice work with the TPW, particularily the look of varying depths along the river :thumbsup: The use of the retaining walls certainly caught my interest in both updates. I like the placement, don't what that hwy disappearing downstream. Good idea  ;)

Looking forward to see how civilisation encroaches.

Cheers

Very interesting. I love the river, I can't seem to use the plopable water that well.

Darn CTD's but who cares when you show such good stuff. &apls

Now how do you make good things better? if I may how about a couple of suggestions?

Have you thought about using one of dogfights new water mods? you could seamlessly blend the real game water with the TPW and everybody would be going WOW

And for the second, how about using one of Ennedi's new slope mods. What I mean is the slope on the railway looks real good but the Ave has a nasty transition . If you ran a rail line alongside the Ave it would smooth out those sharps edges at the top of the slope.

My 2p's worth. like I said how do you make a good thing better, Watch Pat listen to constructive criticism, act on it, and come back with a better version ;)

Till the next time
a well deserved

Hi Pat,

Some interesting pics there.  The transition from TPW to in-game water looks a tricky one that I've not yet attempted.  So i'm interested to see how you do it.

Looking at the banks of your TPW river........ I always feel the need to plop rocks, trees, bushes and grass just to smoothen the transition from water to grass.  But I know that you need parts of the river without all this "stuff".  You've been brave and left the banks "naked".

Great bridges by the way.

And as for that big digger driller thingy - hmmmmm, different that's for sure!

All the best - Paul
