Great idea you have with the highway construction. Ans nice MMPing specially in the last two pictures

sunv123 · February 10, 2013, 02:08:42 PM

Yay, my city is high off drugs!

The Last Citybuilder · February 10, 2013, 03:18:38 PM

uhm...

I think you broke it. I really do not hope that the files have gone corrupt or something else which would be equally terrible.
Or was it your graphics cars which decided to leave you?

Or am I just being a total newbie and is this something very easy fixable? :p

Greetings,

Quinten

Lol, all you have to do is exit the city.

I think it could be because of the fact that I minimize the game when I'm working on my cities. It's a bad habit that I don't think that i'll ever leave behind.

Mr.Lin · February 12, 2013, 06:55:44 AM

What happen on your city , sunv123 ?

vortext · February 12, 2013, 08:35:05 AM

It could be your graphics card. I had similar weird, if not flat-out psychedelic glitches happening which disappeared after fidling with the settings. Might be worth while to check. In any case, lovely nature scenes, too bad modern civilization is catching up. Then again, I'm looking forward to the latest developments!

Coos Bay

We go off to the northwestern side, filled with Conifer Forests...

Random Islands.

Paul Bunyon, anyone?

Lumber has picked up.

Random rocks near the railroad. Is that a safety concern, Willy? Or are the trees a safety concern?

Ooh! Road....

Welcome to the Coos Inn! We got cabins for the first five lucky people. Reserve that spot!

That's it for today guys. Replies later, because I don't really have the time.

Fantastic forest and logging scenes.

threestooges · February 12, 2013, 11:55:50 PM

The Coos Inn looks like a lovely place to "get away from it all." The only down side is that "it all" appears to have followed it out there with that logging operation going on right next door.

Any long term plans besides basic logging? Will there be new homes springing up in the newly cleared area? Inquiring minds want to know.

Nice work on the scenes, and I'll be looking forward to more.

Ah beautiful! I want a vacation there, can I book?

sunv123 · February 13, 2013, 01:18:29 PM

Sure, checking you in right now...

rooker1 · February 14, 2013, 04:10:06 AM

Great work on the logging scene, indeed!
Very believable.

Great work on the logging scene! As for that graphics glitch you posted - something I've struggled with as well. Always wonderful when that happens in the middle of getting pics for a mosaic.

Look forward to more!

Swordmaster · February 15, 2013, 06:59:21 AM

Yes, very good this, but you should explain to me what they do with the logs in that water. Is that cleaning off bits and pieces or something more fancy?

No safety concern for those trains there

Cheers

Schulmanator · February 16, 2013, 11:35:37 AM

Nice! Delightful rural area.

sunv123 · February 17, 2013, 03:58:51 PM

Mountain Creek

By looking at the wonderful work Theresa did, I thought that I might try myself too. I could have used the plop waterfall be David, but eh, i'll take the challenge.

In the high mountain peaks of the northwest...

Wanna go white-water rafting?

That's it for today, see you next time!

Thanks for commenting here, Matt. Yes, the logging operation may be a little close, but it won't last very long. Just to clear up some land for future developments...

Thanks, Willy

The logs? They just use it to clean off extra sawdust and kill some pesty insects that may have gotten into the logs. Wonderful that the trains are okay.

See you next time!

Really nice pictures here, love your work !

But, Coos Bay ?! Do not steal my project ! :p

sunv123 · February 19, 2013, 01:17:03 PM

Sorry about that, just the region that i'm experimenting MMPs with. The city that i'm working on right now is LaCrosse.

Not in any means am i trying to copy...

rambuckel · February 19, 2013, 01:48:18 PM

WOW! I should have stopped by earlier!!! This MD is developing quite fast

Your forest scenes are brilliant! And that creek is really well done as well! That must have cost you much patience! My favorite so far is the lighthouse. I'd love to sit there, watching the waves coming onto the land!

Keep on your great work!

Swordmaster · February 20, 2013, 07:06:26 AM

Hmm, I admire your courage. I'm getting the same results as you, with a lot of texture overlap (those hatching lines). Last picture you seem to have gotten it right (a longer stretch than I've managed so far). I also think you need different rocks, preferably HD. Keep at it (and share some tricks

).

Cheers
Willy
