Olympus City: Evolutions... 8-15-2008: Turning Back the Pendulum: prologue

[sebes]

Great docks! And the japanese village gives the pcitures a very special feeling 

[Filasimo]

hey guys been very busy with things but id like to show my latest endeavor i will be doing for the city and hopefully soon coming to a LEX near you  i am developing a asia W2W megalot pack equipped with seasonal cherry blossom trees and random people props... also one neat lil feature is that if you place say a 4x3 megalot on one road and another 4x3 megalot behind it on the next road, the wider the back alley will be. this will be a 12 lot set of varying sizes ranging from a 4x3 megalot to a 6x3, 8x3, and a 10x3. they will be backwards CAMpatible so you can use them in your CAM cities or non CAM cities. once the legal permissions are granted this hopefully should be out sometime next month, then again stay tuned!  anywho here are some early shots:

STAY TUNED!!!

[Soapy]

your town looks so good! and those w2w lots are coming along well, I cant wait to put them to some use 

[bat]

Yes, your w2w lots looking wonderful!!

[Yoman]

I'd like to place an order for some fireworks in the alley

[suplado!]

wow -- those buildings looks cool!! hope to see it soon on the LEx..hehe

[Moshi]

You have a good transition from shrine to town to naval base, and the one road running through the town is simple but realistic. Keep it up, and I hope you get those lots on the Lex soon!

Hey guys, I was working on an update this week to reveal the new city but the cityfile went kaput    currently im working on rebuilding the city and everything so expect an update soon    STAY TUNED!

[Pat]

Also looking forward to the next update...

[Filasimo]

hey guys just wanted to let you all know that i have been trying to get this together with as much free time i have the past few weeks but the city isnt turning out the way i wanted it to.... guess i made rookie mistake of rebuilding a specific plugin folder for my asian theme city since i was getting more american style buildings n such.... ..... but not anymore. now this is where the good news and bad news is:

good news: i built a more accurate plugins folder with all the asian stuff that is out.
bad news: ill have to dezone the portion of the city i was working on and rezone it after i slip in the new plugins folder.

with that being said this MD is alive and well and i should be able to do some work on it once i make the switch tonight. the past several weeks i have been slammed with work with my dayjob and also work with managing the local band here and supporting their completion of the upcoming CD Stonecrossing "Tension" which the story behind that was I was talking to the lead singer of the band and had misheard him saying Tension for the CD name and he was actually talking about the band needs my attention while making this CD so yeah there you have it the name for the CD was born. I will try to see how much i can work on this city tonight and have one big update. Next week ill be busy yet again with work and band stuff since we will be shooting their new music video starting next week. wish my luck guys!

LoL its all good Ryan at least you are keeping us with the heads up on this and I cant wait to see what you do have in store...

[BlondeTwiggy]

I also look forward to the new update..

[Filasimo]

Hey guys wooo been a while since i gave you all an insight to the city....well after losing my original region when it got corrupted, i had to start all over....well i thought, why dont i start on the city next time and redesign the airship naval port and town to make it even better? so this time i started on the right flank of the city......how this will pan out is that the skyline will stretch across the coast and across will be the town and airship naval port, what i was really intending on doing. anywho here are some shots of the side of the city where there are some dense residential areas......the city's current pop is just about 150k atm and will grow even higher once i start moving towards the central part of the city. well enjoy!!

Different Angle shots of the dense residential skyrises that will eventually dot along the side of the city:

more work will be done along with more pictures but i thought id tease ya guys first 

as always.... STAY TUNED!! 

[Tarkus]

Hey Ryan, glad to see you back in the MDing end of things.  I noticed you've got the NAM Avenue Curves in there, and have put them to good use.   The overall transit layout looks fantastic there.  And the residential district looks nice and "bixely".

Looking forward to seeing what else you have in store . . .

Looking good, Can't wait for more since you did the last seaport well! Hope you and jacob do a joint storyline like last time as well!

[Shadow Assassin]

 

Looking good so far. I quite like those smaller apartment buildings, nice, aren't they? As Alex said, good job with the avenue curves. Maybe I'll give them a try...

[porter66083]

And here's I though it was going to be American themed....

Yay for the Hong Kong though!

Looking great so far Ryan, can't wait to see more...

Great to see you back, Ryan.  It has been a while.  Very good upade, I love the sky scrapers, but you know my views on maxis power lines, hehehe.  I think you should check out High Tension Poles by Fukuda.
Can't wait for your next update.
