Thanks! Yeah I discovered the empty lots area great as placeholders, but can also tell a story of a city that's maybe seen a decline, or plots that were allocated but never sold. I found that a lot of dust bowl towns like in Western Kansas or Eastern Colorado will often have these types of features. I figured it would be a nice touch, and it gives me a lot of wiggle room for when I want to increase density in the future. Because of the detail I'm putting in too, it encourages me to be a bit more attached to each development, and if I need to redevelop it, it'll be a lot more work. Sort of a way of encouraging me to find creative solutions in areas that need renovating without bulldozing everything.

Oh I can't wait, but who knows when they'll come out. I do like the variation this gives me though when I need it. :)

Quite the imposing figure it is!

Cheers. :)

Cheers man! I'm still loving your one tile per episode series. Some amazing inspiration in there.

i love your videos and how you make stuff, i gotta admit though some of the script comes across as chat-gptey to me

Fair! The script is hand written but I'm still making my delivery flow a bit better. And yeah, that was A LOT of pillars.

Cheers! Thankya! I can't wait to get this thing to a big city.

Lol, depends on who you ask aboot that one. Cheers!

Cheers! CS2 has been easy for it, but now the community is catching up. Love to see it.

Cheers man. :)

Cheers bud!

It's a good idea to break it down outside of the build, so I might try that in the future!

Thanks! Yeah they're not as crazy cool as some really neat Eurobuilds, making a UK build on Dunedin would super fun.

Thankya!

Cheers!

Cheers! 😊

I've mentioned it here and in episode one. You need to use the static prop mod by Qoushik. It converts all of the games vanilla buildings into seperate props that don't terraform the land. :)

Thanks. Crazy I missed it twice :)

Cheers! Thankya. Eventually the city will get pretty big, and maybe I can justify its size. lol I think it compares to the elevator in I think Kansas city off of a highway. Not in use, abandoned, but MASSIVE.

It's in the description. 👀 Those are quite handy to comb through. But performance wise, the main culprits for lower fps is motion blur, depth of field, and view distance. Handle those, and I think you'll play just fine.

​@@RaftermanNZ appreciate the response! That 4090 definitely helps 😂

Cheers man! Glad you liked it. I'm stoked to finally be building something on one of my maps.

Cheers. :)

Cheers!

That sounds like you're moving the building itself and not using the static prop mod. The static prop mod turns the assets into props that don't conform the terrain.

I just built out a whole section last night and it looks amazing with these assets. I'm super thrilled with how it worked out.

Good tip! I'll probably move to that soon, admittedly, I haven't been terribly interested in that detail, but I'll explore it!

Awesome to be trailblazing! Though I'm sure people will catch up. :)

You need minimum sidewalk sizes (for now), for grass to be possible. Same with medians. I also use empty lanes to equalize the street widths. Finally, grid size is about 144m x 112m.

​@@RaftermanNZ thanks

It's Bay Port, a map I made that's out in Paradox mods. :) Check out my channel for the video. Note though, the mountain version isn't public. I might in the future if I've got the time to make another release.

@@RaftermanNZ oh thanks I might build on it

Great feedback! Yeah, it's something I didn't consider while editing, and the intro episode was a bit packed. Episode two doesn't have to cover as much ground, so it should be easier on the eyes!

@@RaftermanNZ Great to hear! Really looking forward to where you go next. It reminds me of the tiny town where my grandparents lived in the Canadian Prairies.

Thankya!

You still can! I wanna see North American boom towns be the new meta.

They should snap to the road when you place, either that or you enable anarchy mod. But I noticed they tend to snap to the road automatically.

@RaftermanNZ thanks man. Its working. I hope there is a mod coming for powerlines on the road

Splinter fence?

@RaftermanNZ aka bad news bears Chicko's Bail Bonds.

I think it's part of the asset for the FBI or whatever big crime asset is in the game. Only comes in black. lol

There isn't a mod, it's default in the game. Use find it, sort the props. I can't recall off hand what they're titled, but that section of the video you might be able to see the title of the asset to search within find-it.

​@@RaftermanNZ oh okay weird i never find them but i was thinking it was a mod because it have a logo on thé right oh every junk props. Anyway thx for your répons and i love the vidéo it was great. 👍🏻

Me too! Thank you!

👀

Thanks!! I might do little blurbs here and there to highlight specific tools if I can get the channel to grow. I struggle with the free time to do all the things I want to do though.

@@RaftermanNZ go to bed bro its so late

Looking forward to publishing the next episode!

Thankya! :D

Thanks for the feedback! It's also easier to edit this way. I'm exploring ways to also make the hyperlapses a bit easier to watch (without so much spinning), but for now it seems they satisfy the primary goal. :)

Awesome!! That's the hope. :) Glad you got some good ideas here.

The train engine detail is always one of my favorite little touches. Glad I'm not the only one who noticed that small town quark.

Check out mods by Qoushik on Paradox mods, Static Ploppables, then you can use moveit to get it into place. I bit finicky though as I don't think Move-it lets you cycle through props your mouse is over. So you'll have to move it in one go usually.

Cheers! :)
