Theme Mixer uses tons of RAM and can cause a lot of FPS loss - finding one single great theme will allow for substantially higher FPS in come cases (Gramercy almost doubled in FPS without Theme Mixer!)
I got a good FPS increase without theme mixer too-just recommending it to people because not all can use a totally local map theme with selected textures in it.
@@bsquiklehausen What is the simplest way to take individual textures from different map themes you like and make your own theme, thus rendering the theme mixer mod no longer neccecary?
Is there a way how to extract theme textures from 3-4 different map themes and then create one own theme which uses my favourite textures from 3-4 map themes? This way it would be possible to build your own theme and dont use theme mixer.
"unsub from assets you aren't going to use" -Ok. That sounds reasonable..... *SIX HOURS LATER* ....well, I now have 1,200 more assets and haven't touched the game.
mephistopheles I have SOOO MANY ASSETS and i a have very low ram memory. I have like 4GB or smth it’s very sad. So I really can’t play the game correctly, I would love to have at least 16 or smth like that but sadly I don’t. And I have been unsubscribing from so many assets and mods but they are just necessary like I cannot unsubscribe from like realistic pop or like real time like they are just necessary. I NEED MORE RAM!!!
I agree completely on the use of props! I've always been against over detailing, since this is a CITY building, not a "street" or a "house" level building game. Unless of course that's all you want to do which is completely fine!
Thanks, this really helped, and made me realize I did not need Japanese sea walls and Eastern Bloc styled concrete apartments installed while building my Midwest-styled city.
Different people play the game differently. Some just want the most efficient city within the game's limits, while others couldn't care less how the city actually runs but want it to look as realistic as possible.

Hey Pres, I know I've suggested this before but it would be really cool if you could make a rural area inspired by Central Maine, or a part of the city inspired by Lewiston/Auburn that's a little more run down.
Love that you have the Penobscot Building! (Native Detroiter here who loves the classic skyscrapers in the city) edit: And I see the former Comerica Tower in there as well :)
I have never seen an indept workshop tutorial like this, or something this useful before. I appreciate the video man. Helps a lot to narrow down my 4k assets, and I will certainly create lists in the workshop, rather than ingame and only keep assets that I do use and need for my current city. WHY WASNT THIS VIDEO SHOWN TO ME AGES AGO? Lol.
@@PresCities, I really want to, but I don't have the time for that, I have family now and a lot of things are going on with my life right now. Maybe some day :)
I can only build on console right now but I love this game and I absolutely enjoy it on console but hopefully someday I can afford a really great gaming PC. It's tough to afford something like that right now though because I have a teenager son who eats all my food...lol. 😂.... I love him though so it's worth it. Anyway I really enjoy your videos and I'm a subscriber and even though this one doesn't help me much right now it was still enjoyable. Keep up the great work. I do get great ideas from you and you even help console player's.... just thought you like to know that. 😀
@@PresCities They certainly have and it has come a long way since it's launch on console. They had season pass which I bought and it was well worth it. Season pass one had all the DLC's up to mass transit. They were launched in order and not all at once. There was also some mods and assets ( at least for Xbox one although PlayStation 4 may have it now.) There was also Art Deco content creator pack. Obviously were still well short of having all the capabilities of PC version but it is certainly enough to make great looking cities although it obviously still not were the quality of some of the awesome and realistic cities of PC. There is a big announcement for the console players on January 31 and I am very excited about it. Many are suspecting a season pass 2 and hopefully this gets us closer to having more of the options and assets that PC has. I definitely enjoy playing this game on console but to be honest I would enjoy it on any device and hopefully that includes PC in the future. Have a great weekend!
@@stanplutnicki7620 Hey, you don't need that beefy or expensive (relatively speaking) of a PC to have a C:S experience way superior to the console versions.
Lol I love how you say don't get skyscrapers if you're building Portland Maine. Very often I model my access road and main road based on Freeport Maine. This theme occurs in almost all my maps
thank you so much, making a new york styled city that is going to have an estimated population of 500k is a big project and i want it to be realistic. i been watching you and ive been waiting for something like this
ok i just saw what i think is north miami beach !! what theme is that? should i look in themes or individual houses etc. im in the shop right now hitting rewind on this vid .
Some of the cinematics confused me since I couldn't tell immediately whether it was the game or Google maps. The city you have looks extremely realistic.
Hello, sir pres. I just wanted to say that the tip where it said use the asset editor, the second account is not showing up in family. Can you please help? I've watched that part over and over and kept trying but I doesn't work.
Hey Mr. Pres. I followed this video and on the second tip, which said to create detailed houses in the asset editor, some of the trees that I subscribed to in my second account on steam workshop didn't show up in the asset editor. It showed up in the Load Asset panel. It didn't show up in the decorations menu. Can you help me please?
I love the video and I learned a lot. One problem tho, as a huge baseball fan I couldn’t help but notice that that baseball field WAAAY out of proportion.
So I can cut the number of subscriptions by editing the buildings I want so that they all have the same few trees instead of every building requiring its own special list of trees? Great tip. And having just a few trees makes a more cohesive look too.
I really like you work! The ammount of effourt you put in this city is insane! For a city big like yours do i ahve to buy more ram or a better graphics card? (Currently i have gtx 1060 3gb and 8 gb ram)
Got a question. I had 16 GB or ram (2x8) sticks but it did not have ddr4 capability. I recently bought another 16 GB (2x8) sticks with ddr4 capability. Would it be better to have 32 GB of ram or should I stick with the 2 newer ones with ddr4 capability?
Hi! Big fan. you posted a screenshot on reddit "Custom sidewalks are so satisfying!" and in it, there is a curb cutout with a vent asset above it. How were you able to make the curb cutout? For the life of me, I cannot find it anywhere. The closest I found was a suburb road pack, but to force the cutout I would have to make a T-intersection because it only does it as a crosswalk, whereas your screenshot seems to be for an actual driveway. Anyway, I hope you're able to help me with this, but if not, no big deal. Thanks in advance, regardless!
What do you gain from having a second account for your custom assets? And what are the advantages/disadvantages of editing the asset when prop anarchy allowed you to place props anywhere?
Doing it on your main account will make it basically impossible to enter the editor due to lag. You edit assets to save time so you don't have to continue editing each building in your city
Hi Pres. Thanks for another tutorial. I have a question related to the steam family account. I bought myself a new PC and now I have two. Both computers are good for playing CSL but on the old PC I have old save game (old project which I still want to continue) and on the new PC I would like to start new project from scratch and I would to subscribe all assets and mods one by one again. If I log my account one new PC steam will automatically download all the subscribed items (over 2500 of them) and I dont want to. So could this family (2nd steam account) help me? To get what I want which is 1)Old PC with subscribed assets and 2) new pc where I want to create new project and I want to sub items manually one by one? Thanks.
I don't think you can use family sharing BETWEEN PC's, but if you log into your 1st account with all the assets on your new PC and create a second account with family sharing THAT account won't be subbed to anything.
The account sharing should work properly across multiple PCs, but you can still only run the game on one account at a time. I share with my son so he can play them on his laptop; we just have to play different games.
I tried and it looks good although my intensions with 2nd account are different than Pres's intentions I'm surprised how it works. I assumed I will have 2 workshop content folders but I still have only one. 2nd account did not load up single asset even though workshop directory has over 2400 folders (that is good thing). So it is possible to have one worskhop folder with for example 3000 assets and have 1500 on one account in "project 1" and other 1500 on second account as in "project 2" only thing which I'm little bit worried are .xml files which some mods (like RICO) have. I'm affraid that if I use rico on 2nd account as well I'm going to lose all my rico (local) settings. I will have to figure it out.
So one issue I have is organizing assets between projects. If you're working on different cities with different themes (say, east coast vs west coast?) do you just make multiple collections for each one? And can the collections be enabled or disabled en masse each time? I've gone through the "remove all workshop items" script a few times, but don't want to do that every time I switch to something else.
FPS really seems to tank if you have major traffic issues, especially when I hit the 80-100K population point. Learning how to utilize public transit, and planning for good road hierarchy has helped a lot.
I started having trouble with mine at about 70k. I didn't even think about the traffic. I don't have any problem areas but I don't have a lot of public transport either. So maybe too many pedestrians and private vehicles are causing my problems. I'll work on some bus lines and see if that helps. I do have several metro lines running. But that obviously leaves people getting to and from the stations.
Buses seem to only add to my problem with traffic. Planning for dedicated pedestrian and bike paths that connect major areas, along with a metro or monorail network seems to work pretty well without disrupting traffic. For remote areas or a city that's spread out, a train line works pretty well also. I suspect the vehicle count is what's causing the slow down for me, I typically end up with a ton of industrial traffic. I've been experimenting with boosting education to try and utilize more offices instead of industrial areas, not sure yet if it's going to work. I may still end up with a ton of delivery vehicles clogging up the roads.
The game simulating a car or a person is same-same. The more going on, the harder it's going to be to process. As far as industrial/commercial traffic, it really helps to not have large blocks of either. Spread them out. It also helps cut down on the traffic if you limit the small (1x1) buildings from forming. Say you have a narrow strip of boxes to zone (1x?). Don't do it. You'll end up with a boatload of tiny buildings and each will generate just as much traffic as a 4x4. If (as you should) you separate your industry into small sections throughout your map, it'll also help to connect them with cargo train terminals. It'll cut back on trucks traveling all over the map and they'll instead just go to the nearest terminal and the goods will be shipped across the map.
@@bolland83 try adding more cargo terminals if you haven't already. Industrial areas will send trains to each other and commercial areas since it is more efficient than trucks. It's fun to see trains pulling into a depot and see that they are from another depot nearby.
Pres - How do you remove house needs? Like water, electricity, etc... If I use ploppable RICO I need to use areas otherwise they disappear. If I use Find it, they need these things, otherwise will be abandoned.
I wish I could do this but I don’t have a computer and, although I do own it one an Xbox one, I can’t install mods on it (obviously) expect for the game mad ones
I cannot find the buildings I worked on in the asset editor, even with the find it mod tho. Yes, they are enabled in the content manager and other assets that I detailed can also be found. Can anybody help me out?
I've been searching the internet for an hour now to find the second song in this video. I know you said that the music is by DJ Quads but I went through 30 pages of google video results and couldn't find that particular song by him :'( Edit: Nevermind, found it! it's 'I'll Never Know' by DJ Quads :)
Yes. Any asset that is loaded will consume ram. Instead of unsubscribing from all of the assets you aren't using, you can deselect them within the in game menu. This way, it'll only load the assets that you are using/want to use. You can/should also look into "Loading screen mod". This will tell you if you have duplicate assets and/or missing assets. The reason he said to modify assets is to help save ram and stay within the game's prop limit. If you plop down a plain house, then add a bunch of props within the game, it'll potentially bog down. If you edit an asset and add the props that way, the game will load it as one asset instead.
I want to build Los Angeles in Cities Skylines expanding to the valleys and even to orange county... but my i have an xbox to play cities skylines so i only have 9 tiles and mods suck :(

Buses seem to only add to my problem with traffic. Planning for dedicated pedestrian and bike paths that connect major areas, along with a metro or monorail network seems to work pretty well without disrupting traffic. For remote areas or a city that's spread out, a train line works pretty well also. I suspect the vehicle count is what's causing the slow down for me, I typically end up with a ton of industrial traffic. I've been experimenting with boosting education to try and utilize more offices instead of industrial areas, not sure yet if it's going to work. I may still end up with a ton of delivery vehicles clogging up the roads.
The game simulating a car or a person is same-same. The more going on, the harder it's going to be to process. As far as industrial/commercial traffic, it really helps to not have large blocks of either. Spread them out. It also helps cut down on the traffic if you limit the small (1x1) buildings from forming. Say you have a narrow strip of boxes to zone (1x?). Don't do it. You'll end up with a boatload of tiny buildings and each will generate just as much traffic as a 4x4.
If (as you should) you separate your industry into small sections throughout your map, it'll also help to connect them with cargo train terminals. It'll cut back on trucks traveling all over the map and they'll instead just go to the nearest terminal and the goods will be shipped across the map.
@@bolland83 try adding more cargo terminals if you haven't already. Industrial areas will send trains to each other and commercial areas since it is more efficient than trucks. It's fun to see trains pulling into a depot and see that they are from another depot nearby.
anyone knows which city is it at 6:53 ? i wanna copy the airport in cities skylines
Looks like hawaii
yup, honolulu international airport
With a mod but no F idea
6:49 looks like Fresno.
What's the song at the beginning?
Pres - How do you remove house needs? Like water, electricity, etc... If I use ploppable RICO I need to use areas otherwise they disappear. If I use Find it, they need these things, otherwise will be abandoned.
I wish I could do this but I don’t have a computer and, although I do own it one an Xbox one, I can’t install mods on it (obviously) expect for the game mad ones
when showing of the cities on google earth around 6:50, whats the 3rd City you showed with the large Bay??
I love how my city is Los Angeles themed but it has New York skyscrapers (Nordstrom Tower and One 57)
I cannot find the buildings I worked on in the asset editor, even with the find it mod tho. Yes, they are enabled in the content manager and other assets that I detailed can also be found. Can anybody help me out?

I've been searching the internet for an hour now to find the second song in this video. I know you said that the music is by DJ Quads but I went through 30 pages of google video results and couldn't find that particular song by him :'(
Edit: Nevermind, found it! it's 'I'll Never Know' by DJ Quads :)
I downloaded your mods and assets and I’m creating a Downtown suburban city located in a north california
Do you has to build in to you are at the and of the game?
Do Asset editor creations consume RAM like assets from workshop?
Yes. Any asset that is loaded will consume ram. Instead of unsubscribing from all of the assets you aren't using, you can deselect them within the in game menu. This way, it'll only load the assets that you are using/want to use.
You can/should also look into "Loading screen mod". This will tell you if you have duplicate assets and/or missing assets.
The reason he said to modify assets is to help save ram and stay within the game's prop limit. If you plop down a plain house, then add a bunch of props within the game, it'll potentially bog down. If you edit an asset and add the props that way, the game will load it as one asset instead.
Whats the intro song?? Thats sooo G O O D
I want to build Los Angeles in Cities Skylines expanding to the valleys and even to orange county... but my i have an xbox to play cities skylines so i only have 9 tiles and mods suck :(
