Casper's Portfolio - Reading - 2016 Update 1 - Hornet (Regional Airport)

[noahclem]

Congratulations on your OSITM Casper    I'm very much looking forward to seeing how you'll celebrate the occasion.

I love the last teaser pic and I look forward to catching up on the last couple videos. The RHW path with the tunnels looks like a perfect use of space--one of the hallmarks of this MD, clever, efficient and interesting transport network implementation. Keep up the great work 

[Swordmaster]

Congrats! Will need to pay more attention here this month 

Cheers

Congratulations for being Of Special Interest this Month! 

[CasperVg]

First of all, thanks everyone for the very kind comments, I'm really happy and proud to see my little MD here in OSITM, especially on the anniversary month and in such good company of Ol.S/Benoit, rambuckel, RickD and nas-t, not to mention the always-excelling NAM Team. Check them out if you haven't already!

Replies:
RickD: Yay for marathon-sessions! I do those way to often myself for other youtuber's channels. Thanks!
sunv: Thank you! Always cool to know that people are picking up things from what I do
jmyers2043: Oh really? Is it something related to frustration, cause that's something that pops up in my head pretty often while playing SC4 
rooker1/OSITM staff: Thanks! Glad you are enjoying the vids!
noahclem: Hehe yeah, I kinda realized doing one 25min episode every 2-3 days was a bit much, glad to see you're enjoying the transportation works too. Like in all aspects of building cities, I'm sure there's other people better at it than me, but I try to do a bit of everything and make it all fit together nicely
Swordmaster: Thanks!
art128: Thanks a lot!
vortext: Thank you!

Episode 21: Some special interest

In episode 21 we finish up the highway project over in Hartford, make some adjustments to public transportation and celebrate the 6-year anniversary of the SC4 fansite SC4Devotion.

Enjoy!

The orangy color was noticable but I didn't mind, initially thought you had installed somekind of sunset mod   

Though I grew kinda curious so I just gave flux a try and it is very relaxing to my eyes, thanks!

Also, there're actually wide curves for avenues located in the avenue roundabout tab ring. 

[MTT9]

Congratulations on the OSITM!!!

I also thought that orange was part of the game... Looking foward for more

[kj3400]

Very nice update this time, but the first half of the episode kinda bored me for some reason. Maybe it was the flux program thing, but honestly, I just thought the region was stuck on sunset/rise
Congrats on the OSITM, by the way, and I'm looking forward to the extension of that highway.

[sunv123]

Same here, i thought the orange color was the sunset. To me it actually looked a little better because it wasn't too bright, or too dark.

Congrats to the OSITM! 

Looking forward for the next update

[wzc123]

Beautiful

[threestooges]

Looks like another good one Casper. I like the way you worked the RHW and rail cross-border like that. I was kind of hoping to see a work around the lake, but in the end, I think the path you chose worked well, and probably for the best.

Thanks again for doing the interview. Feel free to post it here too if you'd like.

Great new update 
You should have kept the small lake, it was bringing a small touch of nature surrounded by dirty industries. I liked the contrast. But I like the result too 

[art128]

Same here, i thought it was a mod.

Lovely work on this episode.

[Framly]

Congratulations on your OSITM Casper

[noahclem]

Great update again    It's fun following your playing and there's lots of interesting areas and ideas. I loved that night view at the end!

Great job in the interview video as well 

[CasperVg]

Thanks again everyone for the positive response! Feel free to check out the OSITM interviews by Matt (threestooges), if you haven't already, they're over here!

Replies:
vortext: Thanks, I was pretty puzzled about the orange tone myself at first. Glad you didn't find it too intrusive and good luck with f.lux
MTT9: Thank you!
kj3400: Thank you!
sunv: Hehe, luckily the orange tone was quite decent after all; you're right, it wasn't too light nor too dark. Thanks!
wzc: Thanks alot!
threestooges: Yeah, I'm having second thoughts about that now, but looking back at it I don't think there was enough room for any other viable solution, except bridging the lake, which would've been quite unrealistic.
Air6: Thanks!
art128: Thank you!
Framly: Thanks a lot!
noah: Thanks, I really enjoyed the interview as well 

Episode 22: Not enough mountains

http://www.youtube.com/v/QVEF3au2EKM

In episode 22, we start building a new small town, a few tiles away from Reading.

Enjoy!

[noahclem]

Nice little town    It's interesting to watch you build a small one from the ground up. I'm particularly interested in the farming stuff because I've never actually built a farm in SC4    Keep up the good work 

[kj3400]

Whereas I seem to build too many farming towns. It gets kinda boring for me
But a great start for this town, I like the general look of it, it's very natural.
Do you plan on adding mountains, or are you just going to make do for now?

[CasperVg]

Feel free to check out the OSITM interviews by Matt (threestooges), if you haven't already, they're over here!

Replies:
noahclem: Thanks! Never built a farm aye? I sense a cheater
kj3400: I may add some mountains sooner or later yeah, not sure whether I'll do it manually or using SC4 Terraformer though..

Episode 23: FUBAR

http://www.youtube.com/v/m-gQz9wHkRA

Episode 23 is a special one, I recorded it with the microphone muted accidentally.. Since it is a pretty cool episode nonetheless, with me building a army base in the Reading region, I decided to speed up the footage and put some relaxing music behind it. Hope you'll enjoy!

Enjoy!

[Swordmaster]

At just 8 minutes that's a better length for videos I find. But now, watching was a bit ennervating, too    The end result was very nice, though. Have you considered posting just one or two pictures from your cities?

I'm sorry to be such a harsh critic, but the thing is that you build very nice cities, but I rarely have the time to watch 30+ minutes of video. I wouldn't be making this point if I didn't care.

Anyway, nice work.


Cheers
Willy
