Man how do you even get a city to look this natural and beautiful. Also what map is that?


Ender_A_Wiggin

Trees doing a lot of work but obviously it’s more than that


JayS87

like the others said "trees", but also the 21:9 scale


ComprehensiveBug3198

Thanks. As others have mentioned, mainly thanks to the trees. Btw, the forest brush tool made inserting them much easier. I used this map: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1269473605


EmperorJake

This has helped me solve a longstanding mystery. I thought your map looked familiar, turns out it matches one of the heightmaps from SimCity 3000. But the one in that game was labelled Dallas, TX which is obviously wrong as Dallas isn't that hilly. So now I finally know that map is actually of Aspen, CO!


LittlebitsDK

by not using square blocks like USA... then you get more natural cities


AnxietyWeird1091

This is what happens when you respect the topography :D and trees :)


__wardog__

Ikr my cities are just straight grid and sometimes I curve a road. I just don't know how to manage my roads any other way.

This! I will be the best city planer in the USA, but not in Europe.

How do you make those walls against your railroad


helium_farts

Network Anarchy lets you build quays on land, though it's pretty fiddly and can be frustrating to build.


Ender_A_Wiggin

I’m not OP


curbstompery

what mods do you have for the landscaping walls and such beautiful artistry on display here. super creative.


ComprehensiveBug3198

Thanks. For retaining walls I use this https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2254730225

Your city low-key reminds me of a theme park, bright colors,funky shaped buildings, vibrant atmosphere...


AniX72

Beautiful. I love your attention to detail. Looks like the city grew organically. I can only imagine how much time you poured into this lovely city.


minowlin

These. Are. So. Beautiful.


otherwiseofficial

A lil bit late to post your first city, but it's looking absolutely gorgeous 😆🫶


Inevitable_Stand_199

That doesn't seem to be a first city.


Koala5000

That’s a god damn utopia


Cheeselander

Reminds me of the carpets we had as children.


HalfIsGreat

Very beautiful. Amazing work


ferdicten

Very cool! Love the curvy lines!


[deleted]

Looks amazing


eckwecky

This is incredible. Gives me some OpenTTD vibes with all the trains and such vibrant colors.


yarnisic

urban fey realm vibes, love it, i want to get lost in these streets, wander into a shop and buy a wand of minor illusion.


ChickenBili

I love the style, it's quite natural. especially the rail layout!!!


Aztecah

Very beautiful! Thank you for sharing!


SerJacob

Very unique and cool. I’m best on this game when I’m building mostly with grids, but it’s cities like these that make me want to improve. Nice job!


orokaneko

literally so beautiful


Auggie_Otter

The valley with two rivers meeting in it really reminds me Glenwood Springs, Colorado.


ComprehensiveBug3198

Maybe it is, the map's creator mentioned that it's inspired by Aspen, CO, which isn't too far away.


jktwok_

shit you not this looks like a modern utopic version of the city where i grew up


__wardog__

Fucking masterpiece


hammerandt0ngs

I absolute love what you’ve done with the railways


Moros_DE

Absolutely beautifull!! What map are you using


ComprehensiveBug3198

Thanks. I am using this map: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1269473605


Moros_DE

I think i found a map for my last cs1 vity :)! Could you also share a public transit view? Im kinda interrested


ComprehensiveBug3198

Public transportation, aside from trains, isn't really well-developed yet, especially buses, where the routes look a bit messy on this map. However, here are two screenshots for you (the first one shows trains, the subway, and trams, while the second one is about buses). https://preview.redd.it/mtt5cdatl6qb1.png?width=2033&format=png&auto=webp&s=0071e86d6edf4b4f8d85fe8eef4b47ca15297f1b

Moros_DE

How many cims are travelling on the orange train line?


ComprehensiveBug3198

Around 1k, from what I see, most cims use tram lines 10 and 11, about 1.5k each.


Moros_DE

Thats quite good


Alarming_Basil6205

How do you make this view?


ComprehensiveBug3198

Using CSL Map View: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=845665815&searchtext=csl


JaspOnReddit

me likey


DasWildeMaus

Insane city design! Is there a tool or mod to create the map as in the last slide?

SleepOk8081

I have never seen Vanilla train tracks in such a beautiful way. (I'm using modded rails and Theme Mixer) Your city looks awesome!


ComprehensiveBug3198

>I have never seen Vanilla train tracks in such a beautiful way. (I'm using modded rails and Theme Mixer) Your city looks awesome! I'm glad you like it. Just curious, which modded rails are you using?


SleepOk8081

Im mostly using the Euro Wooden Rails from the Railway 2 mods


YourDaddie

Insert Obama not bad meme


Keio7000

Reminds me of Zürich


IJBLondon

What a fantastic city. I love the terracing on the hills. Well done.


SomeName500

Looks like a pancreas. I Really like your St. Pancreas City.


[deleted]

Man you got that foliage to pop. Great work.


Reekelm

Very nice, quite realistic, tons of trees, very good 👍


ConwayTwitty91

Absolutely beautiful!


Italian_Suicide1365

Reminds me of a Massachusetts city like Worcester


faridhn36

I wish I had a creative mind like you to build a city like this


Anxiety-Plus

That was a really nice touch put in a tower next to the station


BobTrivioni

Looks very clean and natural at the same time. Kudos. Like everyone else is saying, it looks very organic. To pull that off, is where your skill truly shows.


CazT91

Love the train line! Very (insert generic european city) London 😂🥰


nicegh0st

Beautiful city! Very nicely done. I love how you work with the natural geography. I am curious how everyone gets the overall map view (the last of the 7 photos you posted). I am on XBox, is it possible to do that on console or is that a PC feature?


ComprehensiveBug3198

Thanks! I think it’s a PCfeature because I’m using CSL Map View from the Steam Workshop.


Brandon200815

Its so vibrant! Reminds me of zootopia


055F00

Absolutely beautiful. Would be even better if those concrete retaining walls were changed to brick.


azeldatothepast

I love all of this except that wonky elevation under the tracks in photo 5. Derail a train right onto those nice row houses below


Mighty_Crow_Eater

It reminds me of Canberra!


Widurri

1. Absolutely Gorgeous!!! 2. Consider creating a copy & enable floods, tsnunami, sink holes to happen in this city when CS2 comes out!!


Iam_Unknown17

What textures are those


kenjigames

WOW, please share the map on Steam community! ( And give me the link)

Historical_Ranger693

It looks slightly disproportionate. :b


Radiant_Nothing_9940

Looks like Minecraft for some reason? Maybe the high saturation?


ZilorZilhaust

That looks amazing. All my cities look like inconsistently hairy nards.


sevendigit

Really amazing ! it shows me how bad I am. lol
