Nagagonia
Nagagonia is a region with no real world location. In this MD I will try to build a realistic looking region with some greater towns at the coast, some medium size towns at the rivers and seas and a lot of rural areas with smaller towns.
This is the current state of the almost empty map.

There are some rural towns in the middle of the map. One of them is Hampton.

The most people in Hampton work in manufacturing industries or farms near the town.

I think you start good. I like in particular your farm areas. The little canal ditch looks real good. You have a good region and i look forward to see it being built.
Amazing region map! I love the first set of pics and look forward to more.
WOW, what a start! Thats a fabulous little town, the type you would see in the central US.
Few questions:
Did you create that region map yourself?
Where is Hampton located on the region map?
Awesome start, with a nice region and beautiful rural areas!!! :thumbsup:
Wow !
Now, that's a great start ! I really like the region, it looks great to make some big cities also as some small villages like this one you've done.
I really enjoyed watching the mosaic, it's really eye pleasing. The canals that goes though it and the main road are well done my friend. Like the little pond too, excellent details added. And the transition between the town and the industrial area is very nice.
Take care,
-Arthur. :thumbsup:
Great start, nbvc! Can't wait for more!

It's great to see the Sims have Single track rail and a station! very nice canal system btw.
-Dave
That region map looks awesome and the village you have created so far looks great!!

Great start, great pics and great mosaic.
That map looks huge. How big is it?
The farming areas with irragation looks especially great.
And how did you come up with the name? "Nagaonia" Very interesting.
Robin :thumbsup:
Superb start! The extensive irrigation ditches are a great touch! I like the huge scale of the farms here as well!
Wow terrific start! &apls That is one impressive mosaic to be sure. I really love the diverse ways you chose to separate the farms. It adds that realistic feel of a network of small town farms.
I'm am definitely coming back for more from Nagagonia!

People of Fallowsen looking forward to get a water treatment plant in the next update. ;)
I love, love, love! the rock detailing along your river!.....
Nice work with the river harbour and all the different barges, and that treatment plant seems to be needed. Quite some foul looking water there.
&apls &apls Yep nice work with the rock along the river and to bad about pollution but no worry you gonna find a solution $%Grinno$%
Ah...its nice to be reminded of how awesome a lot of the Maxis content is from time to time.
Great update! The city shows a lot of character and the well implemented river detail adds a lot to the overall product.
If I may suggest a water treatment plant (though non-functional I believe) that would look perfect with the aesthetic you've created here: http://www.simtropolis.com/stex/details.cfm?id=18736
Its a grimy but gorgeous design. Just a suggestion. Keep up the excellent work!

Great pictures, nbvc! The river looks much better now!
Your friend, Jordan :thumbsup:
I need to get around more. I can't believe I've missed this for so long. Nice work with the ski town and with Peg's new stuff. You've really put the seasonality to good use. However, I think what's even more impressive are the last two updates. The pollution looked good, really good, in that disgusting way. The overview of the river looked like it had a few rings (jeronij's pollution plops?) of brown, but aside from that, the water was clouded nicely. The following picture, up close of the ship unloading at the dock, I think that's one of the better small port pictures I've seen. the industry pressed up against the seawall as it wraps around to the port itself made a nice little pocket for the ship to rest in. The fact that you made a second update to install a treatment plant and actually showed the difference is a great touch. Nice work on it all.
Great update, really fantastic city!!! :thumbsup:
Good stuff. :thumbsup:
Ah, I did not mean to steal your thunder. The implementation you chose is very clever though. It looks like a natural flow and is very cool. I was playing around with this treatment plant but couldn't come up with something a placement realistic and beautifully "ugly" as you've created. Great job!
:thumbsup:
Great solution to your pollution problem. I'll echo the comment made above. I love that sewage treatment plant and never did find just the right place in my cities to put it. You definitely have. I love your industrial sprawl here.
Geoff
The water treatment plant really did the trick, it looks great.
That water treatment plant is a great addition! Love the details along your shoreline!
Nice updates :)
I really like your industrial areas, they look so realistic and credible.
All the stuff you plopped at the shores and under water is just amazing, it really is that, amazing...
It's not that easy to plop so many rocks and make stuff look natural without things looking repetetive or awkward, you must have a really good feel for what looks natural... You do a great job of mixing the small and larger rocks and the plants and other textures, really well done!

Nice job on the rural-urban transition. Looks great!
Nice use of diagonals to break the grid here and there. Your plan looks exciting. I can't wait to see the port.
Loved the mosaic as it builds up from farmland into a more dense urban center! A great touch.
Nice transition, nbvc! Great job!

Beautiful Mosaic on page 1 and may I inquire as to whereabouts you located those wunderbar docks for your ships?

I likes all these pictures a lot. The small lake on the mosaic one is really well done, also as the housing. The sport complex is very great too, everything fits together nicely. The college of computer science is a nice touch, good job with the surrounding park and building district. ;)

Those are some very realistic looking mixed low-medium density areas. I'm very fond of your treatment of diagonal intersections and the buildings you've chosen for them.
Speaking of which, where did you find the small diagonal at the very bottom of the last picture? Its so plain and normal...in other words perfect for many situations.
Thanks for sharing another excellent update!

For some reason I had huge problems with plopping those smaller boats, they are from a japanese pack right?
Only the first one would plop where I want it, and anyone after that would plop at a completely different place.

Oh wow. Stunning work! Those rural pics are really special. They're all so great its hard to narrow down which I loved most: that irrigation canal through the countryside looks so idyllic; the tree lined country road and back woods shack pics are fantastic, detailed, and so real. I also love how you neatly transitioned from taller suburban, hitting everything in-between on your way to beautiful quiet countryside. A little setup trick that I for one loved. One of your best updates yet! &apls
Regarding the lots: think no more of it. If it takes you any time that you don't feel like spending than its probably not worth it. I should really learn to do some of that stuff myself anyways. ::) One of these days when I have some spare time... ::)

Awesome as usual. That's one helluva mountain stream! I wish I had the patience to add the kind of details you do. Fantastic update.
Excellent work! I like the narrow mountain stream. Mine are always too wide. Maybe the boulders are a bit to repetitive but that is only a minor issue. I love how the river shore gradually transforms from rocky in the mountains to more overgrown in the lower areas. Good attention to realism. :thumbsup:
I have to agree with RickD. Maybe you should you use JeroniJ's rocks, too, and mix them a bit.
Anyway, wonderful work!
Take care!

Excellent pics! I'd do what Papa Nardo suggests ;D

Beautiful work here, my friend. Your landscapes are beautiful, I'll have to stop in more often. :)

That stream is looking very good, but I agree with the previous comments about using Jeronij's rocks, they must look excellent in there !

Thanks for all comments. Some of the rocks will be replaced in this and the next update, but maybe now the way you suggested it. ;)
The Tagalon Dam Project.
The government has decided that the valley near the Tagalon waterfall would be a good place for a new dam.
In a first step, the stream was redirected through a canal.

Nice harbour with some nice dockyards. Only the waters looks to ... clean for such an industrial area.
You know that you need a seaharbour support file for working harbours? I think swamper did it but IO haven't seen anything from him for ages ...
I'm glad to read that you're planning a release, thank you! As for including functional seaport lots, I'm not too sure whether this is wise or not. As pointed by Nardo69, you need a seaport controller file to make it work. And most of us already use either that from the BSC upgradeable seaports set, or that from PEG. Since only one controller is allowed at any time in order to avoid CTD, and since PEG forbade (someone correct me if I'm wrong) any modification of his work without his own consent, that leaves you only the choice to work with the BSC's.
I'd say eyecandy lots would probably make it easier for the majority of people. Maybe with some I jobs if you want, but no "seaport" file per se in there. Anyway, it's your call. We'll make the most out of it ;D
Wow that drydock looks fantastic. Is it your work?

Nice tenements but I'm glad I don't live there! I like the way you've put those filler lots between the railroad right of way and the apartments and will try to do the same in my cities (imitation is the sincerest form of flattery $%Grinno$% ). Those nice shots also look really good with the brightly-lit first floor cheap businesses below dark and dreary R$ units. The wide-angle rail you've used looks great but I'd like to see a little more of it ;)
Looking forward to more! :thumbsup:

Nice job on the tenements! While depressing, they look very realistic!

At the moment I'm using BRF's tunnel and slope mod (it can be found in the STEX) but it makes rail slopes way too long so you might not be able to fit the slope in your port. So you can download Ennedi's slope mod (it's available in the LEX).
The oil port is looking cool :thumbsup:

nbcv- hi. Masterful work here, especially the urban to rural mosaic. That's a fantastic pic, and really conveys a sense of place. I like the cattle feedlot and rail loading area as well. There's never enough of that sort of detail.

Waow, excellent update man, the mosaic with the farms at the bottom, the stadium and the American styled row buildings is just wonderful.

Wow, thats one of the best urban, low class areas Ive seen yet!
You've really done a superb job, it reminds me alot of New York :)

Nice work on that city! And the farms are looking beautiful.

Congratulations, nbvc. I hope you enjoy your month in OSITM as much as we will.
Your latest update reinforces my long-held idea that industry doesn't have to be boring, dirty or ugly. Indeed, night lighting is sometimes as attractive in RL as it is here. I'll have to admit the night shots look better than the daytime scenes, still they show you have a well-planned area well worth further study.
Really good job on this one...

Next night he waited on top of the hill to see who creates this signs.

Unfortunately they are blurred like all UFO pictures.

Most people say this is just a reflection of the headlamps of his tractor and the crop circles are man-made.
But farmer John is sure that aliens made them. And he found this formation of rocks which must be a prove for extraterrestrial activities.

Great work with the diagonals churches.
I am going to raise my head above the parapet and suggest attempting to pedestrianise at least some of the area around the awning of the station, it may look a little better for passengers, and not have those streetlights interfering with the otherwise exceptional view. Great to see there is a tram stop by the station!!

Thanks for all comments.
wallasey: Your right, a pedestrianise in front of the station would also look nice, but now this would mean lot of bulldozing buildings.

As I see you have the same problem as I do at the corners. It saw the rise of this green edge.

Awesome, those logging MMPs are perfect for rural areas. ;D
Logging scenes are a favorite of mine. These are just perfect. Thanks for sharing!
Your logging scene looks great!
Since your other Bat thread is no longer in use and you regularly update your MD here, wouldn't it make sense to open a Bat thread here as well? Anyways it was just a thought.
After visiting your other thread, I did a little read through and find the under bridge damn very interesting. Have you done any further work on that?

Hehe, what a coincidence. Last week I created a logging area and was disappointed by the lack of woodpiles. I hope you will release them. ;)

Nice looking sawmill there, nbvc!
nbvc, I'll add my voice to those encouraging you to release the nifty logging props you have created. They would be an excellent addition to the game's rural industry detailers. Things like that add so much realism to a scene, as your MD pics demonstrate.
A suggestion, if I could be so bold. You have BATted the woodpiles on ortho alignments. My sense is that in the real world our woodcutters are not near so careful. Just a few degrees from 0-180 or 90-270 is enough to break the grid.
I need to go back through Naganonia, as I'm certain I've commented before. I've certainly lurked, but I'm resolved to do much better this year. Thank you for sharing this fine MD with us.

The diagonal walls are a great idea. A good way to take a space that is usually empty &apls

That's great &apls In addition to trees like CP's that were mentioned, I'd vote for a darker grass texture.

Thanks for you comments.
Framly, noahclem: For the walls I need a tree with an offset, so I created this one. My first tree and surely not the best one. I could try with other trees, but I think they cannot be placed in the middle of the grass area. Maybe I could also improve my tree.

Fantastic mosaic &apls
I really like the bike path and the surrounding area ;)
Keep it up!
Nice bike path there, Nbvc! Remind me of the bike path there was in my house at the french country side. ( well more like a small town than a country anyway... Yeap, a small town in the woods... Woods everywhere, North, South, East, West.... )
The mosaic is nice as garbage disposal yard :thumbsup:
Love the camp ground and river. Makes me want to dig up my tent.
Great mosaic mate, I like the farms they are so realistic and also the road and the bike path, Great job &apls
Great work on the bike path there! Looking forward to more... ;)

Nice picture and mosaics of the library. Also nice suburbs and farms. ;)
Great work with the sewalls. And I like the lake. :thumbsup:
Nice city, I like how the mosaic show from the down town to the farm lands, it's beautiful. Nice work with the lake. I liked a lot the smooth path of the river, using Alex's Parisian seawall, they look good in your city.
Great updates &apls City, countryside and suburbs are all great :thumbsup:
Great city! I always like your transitions from the city to the rural.
The library by Debussyman is very well located and the use of xannepan river banks ideal. &apls
Great pictures &apls Especially the Mosaic that shows center, suburbs and rural parts is brilliant :)
Great work as always!
Fantastic job with the Riverbanks ;)
Nice City and suburbs..
Keep it on :thumbsup:
Great transition from farmland into the downtown!!! Very realistic!!! Although I would be interested to see some more European looking suburb-like buildings. I know TSC has some great lots.

@swormaster, this was my first thought as well because I recently watched a documentation about the Bikini Atoll on TV ;) But I guess this scene is either an expression of hope, that nature is able to recover even from this kind of cruel madness or it is a scene that's nothing to do with any nuclear wapon =)

The Great Blue Hole is not from nuke tests. It was formed naturally.
Quote from: Wikipedia
It was formed during several episodes of quaternary glaciation when sea levels were much lower - the analysis of stalactites found in Great Blue Hole shows that formation took place 153,000, 66,000, 60,000, and 15,000 years ago. As the ocean began to rise again, the caves were flooded.

Dantes:Yes, there may be some wrong plants for this kind of desert. I'm also not sure all these types palms will grow here. Maybe a bit less cacti in next update.

Great desert pictures &apls
Ooooh, that looks nice! Reminds me of the silk road.
Why don't you try to upload them to the LEX?
Those camels on their own are fantastic, but when you place them in a desert and provide an oasis destination - wow, just brilliant work.
The camels are brilliant and so are the Beduins. I just have one little suggestion. Most Beduins wear those tunica-like clothings which look like skirts around the legs. Viewing your pictures I'm not sure if they already wear this kind of clothing or if they wear trousers. I guess it would fit quite well if they'd wear those tunica-like garments.
Woah, that is amazing ! Fantastic work :thumbsup: I love this pictures (and the camels ) :)
Just plain AWESOME!

Much better &apls The new chain is scaled much more accurately and I like the look of the people and benches. Are these going to be HD? any chance of diagonals?
I think I will use the smaller ones.
I'm not sure if I make them HD. Diagonals are planned, maybe also some wavy or rounded.
Any ideas what else then people and benches can be placed on the seawalls?

Also beautiful marina. Diagonals and wavy seawalls will be a great addition.
The smaller fence looks much better. Maybe you could add some life-savers, trashcans, lamp posts and information signs. I would not use too many props, though. I like the simple and clean look and not every seawall is like an amusement park. ;)

The Historic City Wall
In the old days the city wall surrounded the complete city. Nowadays only some parts of the wall are left and the city has grown around the wall.

A mirrored version of the curve is planned. It is a 45° curve, if you put two together, it will be a 90° curve. A Y-shape pier is an interesting idea, but I think it will be a bit narrow for the boats in the inner part.
Cool! I like it!

Don't you think the Burj hotel is a bit too large? You may use SC4 Model Tweaker to rescale it to a proper size :)
Awesome update man! I really liked the use of that curvy hotel.
Amazing shots!
Congrats on OSITM! Very nice pictures.
Cheers

@weixc812: I don't know if it is too large. The original seems also to be quite large http://www.flightglobal.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/mt/flightglobalweb/blogs//the-dewline/Burj%20Al%20Arab.jpg
Boats And Buoys
I have created some more water ploppable boats, mooring buoys and a cardinal mark.

Congratulations on being OSITM for December.

Cliff
Here is some thing new I'm currently working on. It should be come a modular set of cliffs for coasts or mountains.

Stunning buildings, I really like the first picture.
Nice pics! &apls
I'm waiting for the new "nbvc-rocks" ... ;D
Nice pictures. &apls
The cliffs looks interesting and will be really useful. :)
What is the size of the cliffs? It would be great some big cliffs, about 50, 75 meters or more.
Nice pictures. &apls
The cliffs are a great idea, though the texture is little repetitive. I assume it's a wip and it'll be gorgeous in the end. And I already got a spot reserved to use them. ;D :thumbsup:

Thanks for all comments.
vortext: Yes, the cliffs are not final I will try to add more variation.

Fantastic job !! Looking forward with more progress with this great marina :thumbsup:
Is it possible to release the marinas as props without the boats? I would love to use your marina's in combination with the CAL Small Boats set.
Thank you very much for all your work on these fantastic seawalls. They are the best ones in the game IMO. :thumbsup: Do you have any rough idea of when the curvy ones will be ready? I'd really like to use them. ;)

Thanks for your comments.
@eugenelavery: I think I will release some marinas without boats.
@InvaderNat: I'm not sure when they will be ready. I wanted to include some more piers and other stuff you can see below, but maybe I create two or more packages instead of one.
Marina And More
Some more new BATs.
A pier which fits between rounded seawalls.

Boats And Buoys
I have uploaded some of my boats and buoys.
http://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/29498-boats-and-buoys/
Awesome! Nice work. :D
Awesome work on the marina set &apls I've really enjoyed using it and can't wait for the rounded corners and gas station! I do wish there was some way that the walls could be placed higher (ie 3m elevation) and the boats would still float on the water instead of hovering above it... Keep up the great work :)
I didn't play Simcity in the last months and have no update.
But I have created the final Lots for my round corner marinas.
