You've done a great job at making this so realistic and british from the roads to the amazing detail in each area! One thing that bothers me though is that you put the drive thru the wrong way round and not the british side apart from that it's really great!
very convincing! I agree with you about making it work, otherwise it is just a static snap shot. I am trying to make something that resembles a dynamic working county and that changes during the day as cims go to work, go shopping, go to school and so on. The game doesn’t make that easy, but some of the realism mods, such as Real Time, Realistic Population, Lifecycle Rebalance, building spawn points etc help a lot. Also you can use TMPE to set realistic parking and stop cims from spawning cars out of their pockets.
Nice job!! Id love an english village themed content creator pack for console... The Primary School or your next primary School you make, on the concrete part of the playground you often used to see Hopscotch and Hockey/Netball markings thats what my Primary had in the 1980's, then nearby there was a park with tyre swings, a baby swing, climbing frame and one of those big old wooden triangle structures with the slide and some seats underneath. And its rare nowadays but Pubs used to always have a Dinosaur slide or a tree slide, i remember one local pub near me had a Mother hubbards boot slide where you'd climb up inside the boot and slide down. And alot of country village Railways have a "Thomas" themed character train or a Thomas himself train. Just some food for thaught for you! :)
Omg I now need to try and find hopscotch decals!!!! 😁 thank you for the suggestions I agree with all of your points, just got to find the relevant mods/assets 😁
@@75PercentRad your welcome :), another afterthought for you, you could also nearby have an old WWII tourist museum airfield with the Spitfires and Biplanes like RAF Duxford , if you google earth it you'll see there's a street there where if you lived on that street and looked out of your kitchen window you'd see the Gate Guardian Spitfire and a V2 rocket across the road lol
i've been trying to do this sort of vibe on console for SO long: it just doesnt work without assests.. Great to see you putting them to use! Love it laddy
Hey there! I was just wondering, What mod do you use for the roads/pavements, and defo putting the items off grid, or on places where there is already something, or is that just "Move It!"
Good work 👍 Extremely Accurate,I only think that you could reduce the use of hills maybe maybe them lower like the one next to the Aldi. Edit:And add some more parks,there are thousands of little parks placed in towns or villages bassicly everwhere.
@@75PercentRad I need to build a British city what is mixing of London, bit Manchester, bit Warrington, bit other big cities with my fantasy. What's your oppinion how can I do that?
I think it’s doable! 🙂 the main issue you will have is just running it, I have a mid spec computer and it’s already starting to struggle with this build. However, if you have a high spec pc you should be fine. I would plan your areas, and think of: a) how much residential you want b) density of residential c) how much commercial (and density) etc. For each area. Then think of ways to connect these areas, I.e. you don’t want a massive city and then farms directly outside. With a bit of planning and lots of mods you’ll be fine. Again with mods I try and do it area by area, so if you’re building a low density area, make sure to look at mods for smaller houses, parks, schools etc. I hope this helps! 😁 you’re always welcome to jump in our discord server and we can discuss it with more of us and I can help more 😁
@@bozsiland it’s all your choice, but I’d say, instead of London, make Manchester your main ‘city’ and use places like, firstly what you said, Warrington, and then places like Bolton, Wigan, St Helens and the outskirts of Liverpool. 👍
SirGeekyGamer has been doing a series on this too for the past 5 months. Hes really got me into this game. Looks like you are using a similar approach to design.
Thank you! 😁 I'd absolutely love to Mr Fox however, good ol' Steam doesn't allow you to add all assets to one collection. However, this is all of Rik4000's assets that he has made: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1753389203 - this and MacWelshman's assets (steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198025130003/myworkshopfiles/?appid=255710) are 90% of what I use. They both have some handy Collections that you can sub to!

It looks so accurate to a normal British village great effort!
Thank you very much!
British person here, yes, this is nearly exactly the same as most of the suburban areas in London. Well, nearly any town in the UK actually!
I love how dark the map looks as if there’s rain just round the corner, classic UK
Thanks so much! Well we can’t possibly lie and pretend it’s sunny 😉
Looks like a place police interceptors would be based
😂😂😂😂
True 😊
This is so well made, the city reminds me of my home town in Lincolnshire.I intend to move back there after covid.
Thank you very much!! Really makes all of the time spent on it worth it!! Oh nice, hope all goes well my friend! ❤️

Great to see you Brad. Love the looks of this small little English village with supermarkets that are bigger than the village. So it is realistic lol.
Thank you buddy! ❤️
Cheers from Alaska! I was actually gonna use this map for a UK Theme build of my own! Great to see you putting it to amazing use, looks awesome!
That’s awesome!! 😁 let me know how it goes!

I’m so glad it’s helped! 😁 thank you
Never seen a mc Donalds without a car park aha. Really good tho just nit picking lol
Where did you get the mods mate?
Can you make a tutorial on how to get those houses and edit on those houses please
Not enough potholes everywhere!
What mod is used to re level the ground around the roads?
How are you managing to place residential properties on zones not marked as residential? Everytime I do so, they demolish themselves!
How did you get the uk houses?
this is so cool! looks very similar to where i live
Good work 👍 Extremely Accurate,I only think that you could reduce the use of hills maybe maybe them lower like the one next to the Aldi.
Edit:And add some more parks,there are thousands of little parks placed in towns or villages bassicly everwhere.
Good call!
What would you do without the saisburys local?!
I'm British so this is sooo cool!
I live in Middlesbrough, 15mins away from Darlington
I really love this series already man! Doing the same kind of thing in American style! Btw great job and keep up the good work man! 😃
Oh awesome! 😁 I'm really glad you're enjoying it!
I'm from the UK and it looks so similar
Superb work! I wish we had access to all these assets on console.
The name is very similar to Darlington (A city in North East England)
Could be close to Bristol because it’s near the M5
Where can I download the assets you have please? I've been looking for a while now on steam and can't find a collection.
I don't have it in a collection yet I'm afraid. Although checkout Rik4000 and MacWelshman on Steam they have some great UK packs!

Are the busses mods?
Yes but if your on console just make an account on skylines and go mod shop on the game and search for UK busses
This guy is very BRITISH🏴
how do you get the dark pavements ?

Did u use mods
WHAT! Wait can you build yourself in game I’m so confused I thought you couldn’t do anything like this
Enjoy 😁
This is accurate
Is this a mod
Is this a real town? Looks epic bgw
You’re very kind! Thank you. No it’s a fictional, generic representation (hopefully fairly accurate) of a UK town 😁

do we really say Foliage like that?
Make Wickford Essex

pls may you add starbucks

Its maccie Dees not mcdonalds
btw u said audi in stead of Aldi
Good! Do you have a KFC in your UK city?
I don’t!! I have a McDonald’s, now we need to get in KFC!! 😁 🐔

wonder how many of us viewers are British
