you can separate the tracks by creating a specific industrial rail corridor,that wy,you may not have to face traffic
Now i gotta deal with 1/4 of terminal 1 just completely missing and it being unfixable
Blue hour my beloved
Wip
Yall's city look so good
Mine looks the entirety of china cramped into a cubic meter of space
That's just common gameplay
with the amount of ads i watch for the free plug ins they can fund a year of harvard university for 2500 students
Peak game
With the most basic parking area ever
I can't seem to place level 3 residentals without them complaining about school
So I got the biggest school
That tiny one on the right bottom corner
Don't worry, I'm more hardcore in grinding ads gems. Been playing day and night for the past 2 weeks, and now I've accumulated over 20k gems lmao
Damn i should do that too
How many ads do you watch daily?
No, don't sacrifice sleep for gems
Definitely worth it
I dunno, the moment the 3🎁 gem ad rewards show on my screen i immediately play it all until i shows up again in a few minutes
I provide 20k slots for elementary school and my city only has a pop of 10k, and they still complain about school
Peak
Make sure all the residential buildings are within the range of the schools both elementary & highschool
20k divided 3 is like 6.67k ads watched and most ads are 30 secs long so that's like idk
vönark unfortunately didn't made the terminals into smaller pieces so that's why it's big
I see I see
Is the parking space enough
I feel like they need to be bigger
Sometimes the ads i get are 6 seconds long, that's like a jackpot for me lol
Yeah i know
Honestly you just need to build a better road layout
6 seconds????? Dude each of my ad are always 2-30 second ads and occasionally 30 seconds one
I can't build roads
If you want this kinda roads imma say hell nah bro
This guy looks like he played theotown for 50 years straight
Just build something simple like this. Btw I'm using no plugins here (well except a few)
I said sometimes, most of my ads are 2 in one ads both having 30 seconds runtime... So it takes me 1 minute+ unskippable 5 seconds waiting saying "install now"
My starting area is worse, the one in picture is the more recent area
Some roads up there are still dirt roads
this is peak
That doesn't look too different from mine yet it loooks so much better what
This is another random project I'm working on
Ohhhhhhh
What are those grey tiles separating buildings and roads
Decorations
Evolution
I see
Here's a very simple road layout. It's really not that hard if you put some effort into it
1 hour actual gameplay 5 hours plug in hunting🔥🔥🔥🥶
Oh my my that looks absolutely amazing
I'm pretty sure there are plenty of tips and guides in #tips-n-tricks when it comes to road layout
Those small 1 × whatever number tiles right in the middle of those roads are for decos?
I see I see im new here so thanks a lot bro
Those are decals, well actually they're called asphalt but i prefer calling them decals
Decals
You're talking about the concrete in the middle of the road right?
5 hours of loading screen due to too many plugins 🔥
salt lake but with a roundabout?
Lmao
Salt Lake City blocks?
yh
Those are huge compared to those
very
It's not even close
they were designed for big personal 1800s ranches
Let's not forget the roads are really wide
but now its an icon for grid layout to me
Just this much?
Bro im 3 days into the game
I barely know road building
Im gonna pull 10+ next week trust
See this broski 🗿🗿🗿
Sentenced to immediately learning TLREP
No theotown in sight💔
Rip, discord
Sigmas have theotown and Instagram on their top 3 screentimes🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶
Doomscrolling reels while watching ads in theotown🙏🙏🙏🙏
I am 29 minutes ahead of you lol
Maybe not yesterday
i just realized, this intersection layout is inverted, i need to revise this
I am thinking what the mayor of the server will think after watching our screentime
☠️☠️☠️
all im referencing is the grid
if you ever see me talm of SL it shall be because someone posted a grid
Bridge plugin name
... I always thought it was golden "state" bridge... So that's why i couldn't find it
I have a question, say the buildings are all done and you just noticed this, is it all over?
yes.
i have to start over.
ive gone through this process so much times in building my projects that it doesnt bother me much anymore
building a masterpiece requires real time, real sweat, & real dedication
are you okay because why is half the thing theotown 💔
True, so true...
For Tangram what is the ideal
Man and min elevation setting
Building is fun, it's just that it's hard to come up with a "theme" for the city, for example a full on cramped quarters, a cozy nature inspired city, a militaristic city, an 1800s themed city, anything to build for, but it's hard to floor plan the place
This is the best I can until now
Wynbärr progress
(Give suggestions)
MW player i see
Just got down making the massive parking building next to the terminal
Ngl looks..
Kinda decent
My first contribution
Bro thats absolutely FIRE
What did you use for the parked cars and the curved buildings
aea matasflaca
Figured i’d show my first and current city. around like 93% happiness
Don't be attached to straight roads, some curves give a natural design
That's nice
get those plugins in man!
i dont see enough plugins
anime, waste to energy and ummmhggg i think pipes under roads are all i got
i’d imagine a 1 tile city is probably not what you’re supposed to do (?) but we ball anyways.
That's quite good
completely grid locked
Nah, its fine, the casual gameplay is like that. manual city building, layout, and decorating is hardcore gameplay only veterans do
Almost normal bridge incline
beautiful and very simplistic
wish i could make the same size but i dont have a good place for it
takes too much space
Ecofriendly mine
How do I get LPC server link
Via invite
I think so
Where?
Ye
There is no timer
The crane
Okay
A Ridicolous industrial sized huge miner thing
Idk, I put it there because it was huge
And I needed some polution there
Wdym needed some pollution 😭
And it was big
I am creating a industrial dystopia
And I am overengineering industry
How do I get invite
Sounds quite American tbh, or British like
Maybe
Is more a siberian style tho
And when I say overengineering...
I go sleep
Here pollution rate if wondering
Hi people
May I ask where can I find it? Please?
Leaf roads on his server, and in game type in invisable
Oh well thanks
yeah
Somewhat small town (for now... its a city that's a work in progress btw)
(I did have labels for each neighborhood/district but they are hidden, also there is a night time picture I included here)
Good progress!
Aw, thanks!
I do have a picture of the town with the labels if you want to see it.
Go ahead
Alright, here it is. @velvet zodiac
Not much now, but there will be more soon.
Also the little park is in a work in progress too
(And so is the industrial area)
Okay 👍
The curved parking building is a custom building i made with the modular houses plugin and the car park decos is from the "City car park" plugin
does anyone like my metro area I'm making right now (wip)
Megapolis News
Nuusantara Mayor, Qayyum bin Sejong van Mook, opened the 20th metro line in the People's Republic of Suid-Quzestania. However, it was immediately closed after water from the Orange River leaked into the subway line.
Just a minor grammar correction
Im building a lore for my RP country
It seems like a uni/college complex
That looks so good what tree plugins are those?
Howd u do this?
Day 3 so far
those plugins are private unfortunately
Damn
This is sick
How could I make an elevated train terminal? someone give me tips
Airport layout idea
just trees
Oh look, a bunch of partygoers causing mayhem to ongoing cars
Interchange
QNA: why does this look like a flyover
half clover interchange
Oh i mean on the pier/boardwalk
ion remember ngl
what them bridge legz
sybau 😭😭 I don't know how to advanced interchange yet 😭😭
im asking for the bridge legs 
oh
invisible road
from
parking?
parking lot ploogin
Wont that make the traffic really really slow?
no
I mean
you're supposed to go like 30kmh on sliproads anyway
Actually maybe im thinking of another plugin
we got speed deco for a reason
No like the main highway
info ploogin 😭
how tight are your slip roads dog
you're generally supposed to go freeway speeds unless you're in an extreme urban area
up until you have to stop
dawg I mean
I have limited space here
I mean as in like
the lake would be a problem in the interchange
also the interchange super close to the coastline so
that lookslike you could build a simple diamond on that ngl
Lol
Yaayaayayyayaya
Bro has rtx 69420
no bro just has the editing skills
It's slowly growing XD
Lmaoo
End of day 4
Oh wow nice XD
Im happy with this city though the road buildings are still barely good
The buses sure help
I'll be focusing more on city size growth and population tomorrow
Happiness is great now
Wip
WIP: Small village center
Also includes a British telephone booth, which you will soon gain access to for your cities
How do you do diagonal flyover so cool ✨
woah so cool, what plugions did you use for houses
British pack, made by rockfort
Interchange
any plugins to recreate this in theotown?
AOS, get that from hadestia's server. Also get that ship from miuku's server
Wanted to chill out… I only noticed I spent the entire afternoon when I saw the sun setting 
(I did it on easy, one day I shall do it in normal)
Can you please send links to those servers via DM?
What's the plugin for the large orange building?
^ very simple but im not that good at decorating and i was rly proud i was able to do atleast this 😭
Old State House, Boston
Tiny inconvenience near the end but we good
Guys what are the chances for your rockets to become a meteor? I lost my first launch pad because of that
some further progress in le map i'm workin on
4th time i had to move the hospital (pic from a week ago)
I think this looks ugly
Oh and btw I barely know what an urban area looks like I do not live in a city
Dutch like
it's a good starting point, i'd recommend you try building the city out on a grid of streets
PLEASE SOMEONE RESPOND
study some examples from google maps and see how street layout works and how you'll fit each building
also for more realism: play with the topography and hydrology a bit as you're building
Hello
Hi 👋
what plugin is that?
55 Water Street
thank you 🙏
City update day 5 i think
I love looking at my cities at this view
When its zoomed out its really nice to see it all get pieced together
WIP Regional Rail Terminal
I might change the trees tbh
Yep
I need more level 2 tall and big commercial buildings
These were today's progress
Those are nice, i can't seem to figure out how to do train terminals
finally got my neighborhoods and divisions figured out
How did you do that?
its a plugin from a server i genuinely dont remember
might not even be from one as a matter a fact
Reminds me of that gta sa style gang territories
Me with labels💔💔💔
Yayaayya
Where do i get this
Tried to made A small hospital campus with medical college with small temple inside for morale support 😅
Just yesterday that i captured all territories
That looks pretty cool. It's pretty original to dedicate a medical specialized campus in your city :)
looks ok
the settlement begins
intersection planning:
previous | revised
red - Interstate highway 10
blue - Interstate highway 25
yellow - Interstate medium 129
green - Access turntables
these colors do not apply to the previous interchange plans
man, american interchanges are an absolute ass to handle
Why does it look more like messy wire/cable management lol
what do you expect, its american road engineering
;-;
This is so cool
Prime land for suburban expansion
Where you get this plugin or this plugin private?
houses with farms...
actually good idea
thanks and hai rockfort
Where's bus line?
good luck
Where's I29?
interstate mediums branch from or connect to other interstate majors
mediums have 3 numbers, while majors have 2
Seokjojeon
since I am building a US western-style city, I thought of using the US highway interstate system
Western style? So the city is on the West Coast?
Ngl never realized how cool my airport looked on the mini map when i clicked on a road
Nice airport
Tbh you probably have already seen it at this piont
Nah thats sick
Thanks, it isn't finished yet
Im supprised how people like you can make a city look this good
And how do yall sometimes just cram so much detail into places where it seem likes you cant out details there
That didn't answer my question
Seems like new mexico
breaking bad x sanfran 🥹
I love details horhor
Me too
Isn't that modular
Ngl the main terminal looks like something i could recreate and make it not look bad
(Accept all the other stuff around the main terminal)
Yeah i was about thinking
"Homie aint that terminal made outta modular?"
You chat exactly like my friend (very close) lol
Oh wow lol
Are you guys ready to host olympics with me? 😜
Nah ill pass
I don't see the Olympics in that
Do you throw coins in the fountain
Where are the stadiums for gymnastics, football, running etc💔
Haha funny 😂
But unfortunately i got smallest landscape in the available free region hence can't build a huge sports area it will took half of my city space😓😭
You can make bigger regions
Actually i am making in the available online regions, so that my cities don't get wiped out even if i uninstall the game
The night ...
@crude phoenix
Its support mode

..what
I think they meant it's creative mode
Or sandbox whatever it was called
still, how would that be any relevant
Idk
Breaking News: A plane crash has occurred just a mile away from Fort Andrerson military base. Police and EMS are quick to respond.
What kind of plugin is that... That seems like making the game more chaotically realistic
It's a mix of like, 3-4 plugins
Ohh...
Not gonna lie, that plane crash disaster should be in vanilla
In SimCity 2000 there's a small chance to have an aircrash once you built an airport
That would be a cool feature
It causes massive fires mostly when hitting trees/city buildings
Which’s plugins you use for this screenshot? 😦
Did you remember now?
I want this
yeah i'm sorry i really don't remember where i got it from
i would appreciate if everyone quit pinging me about it too
i have way too many plugins to keep track of
Could you like check your plugin register?
Makes sense
Can you send me the link too? pleasee 
Can you send me too
In the future if you don't like when people do this I am more than happy to consider it harassment if you tell people to stop 🙂
No problem, if it does happen in the future and you've asked folks to not bother you about it just ping me and we'll get it sorted!
will do. is it okay if i just drop the link here i wasnt sure if i could on this channel
If it's to a forum plugin that's fine
There are so many plugins that I can't remember them all.
Sorry
here's what i built during school
taking roundabout stack quite literally with this one
looks good man
What did i do💔
🥀 🥀 🥀 🥀
Wait why does this look like...
Oh ew
Any plugins for diagonal flyover?
Any suggestions
Ummm city fence pack
No I am not talking about fence, but the road, is that just asphalt?
My suggestion is you to expand the road system and build a sand beach and roads near the coast like New York.
That's just grids
Is the terminal based of a real airport?
Current work in progress
fleshing out the western part of town
toying with the idea of a historic mill village that formed before the current city absorbed it
most of my time spent is getting the road markings to look right 😭
I’m trying to build the largest airport in Theotown, and I name this thing “Big Beautiful Caterpillar Terminal”
That isn't an airport for the town, but rather a town for the airport lol
Yeah, the town only exists there to have some kind of life form
Finished decorating a bit
I love it, the town hall building in the centre (im assuming its a town hall) reminds me of Hawkins from Stranger things
in the American interstate systems, I29 is NOT a major highway because I129 is only a medium, the first 2 numbers are talking about the first numbers of both interstate highway designations, the number "1" is from I10 & the number "2" is from I25, the last number depends on WHERE the highway leads up to, if its 0 or an even number, then that means it leads to another highway, if its an odd number, then it leads to either a dead end, or a road lower on the roadway heirarchy
I love my city 😘😀
Does he work there😍😜
Hello
What
interchange progress
What Is this?
What is this lines?
Advanced road (you can search it in the game)
Or leaf road (you have to go on the leaf’s server to get it )
the first number talks about wether it's a spur or a loop, the last two talk about the interstate it's born from. Exhibit A: "the 405" from california, oregon, and washington.
sick interchange tho
watch CGPgreys youtube video "the secrets of the US interchange systems"
finaaallllyyy
but I29 is a real freeway in the middle of the us
goes through the dakotas etc
i238 exists because there were no more spur names
not spur loop
most likely part of the OLD US highways system instead of the modern US interchange system

so your thing is very roughly based on san fransisco
would've made more sense if it was i5 and i10
yeah, this is a fictional city based on san francisco
anyways, time to continue building this brain tumor interchange
gl lmao
Can anyone judge me pls
No other comment beside the airport?
Nice... can i ask what road do you use here specifically the one with yellow lines?
Guilty. (Im judging you) 
First time playing with high-rise building.. Rate it
No road access 
They have road plus pedestrian access wdym
I mean direct access
RAM Burner 3000
Some don't have road access but that's besides the point.. I wanna know if I did high to low transition right
Im out of high rise building to put guys...cmon someone should make an 100mb ahh plugins pack
Yeah its good but you should build a port/transport hub near the CBD cuz thats where most ppl would come to
Also get many (atleast) 2x2 building plugins because 1x1 looks like a Slum compared to the one with much bigger tiles
TTT Slum lmao
Bruh you got too much expectation
I've just started
And i did build a little transit hub near high-rise.. Bus plus elevated metro
Im not insulting you lol..im roasting the existance of 1x1 highrise buildings in Theotown
Yh its good
But honestly ppl in theotown built their cities just to please eyes on #city-showcase (no offense) by covering the "bald spot" with private plugin trees
But you're doing good
Its functional and acceptable (for me) for a "realistic" city
Usually I first place all the roads and infrastructures then I do beautification later
Last night I had 10k pop now it's upto 46k
Most ppl in this channel did the vice versa...ofc its good on my eyes but im just criticizing it as a functional cities
Tons of Private plugins used (and other overcomplicated road marking hacks)
Wait...San Fierro??
I swear i saw that interception somewhere
I use to build plugin roads but since I got the custom speed plugin I use vanilla roads because thry look good enough
Any suggestions for Japanese Traditional Plug-ins
Details or buildings idc
Isn't that just San Francisco
Isn't there a whole Japanese building pack? That'll look good around
Inferior Minguk City Planning vs Glorious Choson City Planning guided directly by the Great Leader :
It doesn't look like San fierro
I want multiple AND Details
Bruh you never played Gta SA before? ofc theres no intersection after that huge ass bridge
Vanilla best already
I just use Mew's to build custom road (like civ eng. level u-turn and stuff)
Lol what a coincidence I made this city in gta sa map
The city I tagged
except Staunton because of the train
I am saying it looks nothing like it
Although you should use this map and create actual San andreas
But I am still building that big ahh city
I need to finish this💔
Big project
It looks nice
After this new York then prob gta
I have metro and monorail
idk how to do that
No complaint but that maglev lines ruined everything
Use the tool when monorail track is in use
Do I minus it
Yes
You need diamonds to do it just do subway lines
This is my humble system
ooo interesting
Lol
I wanna complete this with waterfronts but the island is so goddamn long and I am lazy
That released late 💔
As you could see the line density were based on population density too
And its not all straight line like irl thanks to regulation/lazy constructor who dont wanna drill under 200-storey building
Yeah it look practical
Can u send us your subway line
I just love the transportation update
But they should've added actual depots for every vehicle and we should be able to assign multiple vehicle on same route because currently we can only assign single vehicle
Metro Depot max vehicle is waay too low. Like 2/depot? cmonn
Exactly what I'm saying
Ik theres like only 8 line on irl developed cities but this is theotown where your subway could get clogged after 3-4 stations for some reason
Worry not
Those plugin makers can do some crazy work once the update fully comes out.. I just know it
Im sure there would be two different meanings of "Crazy" here
Hmmm
Anyone remember the "T*ror1st Pack" that go through the store approval
Oh hell naw
Fella would approve anything but a "flawed plugins" because someone missed a pixel on their high-effort skyscrapers
They banned the plugin
Haha that's true I've seen some pretty nice plugins get rejected
Boom boom plant
nah ngl kinda curious what was the teri plugin?
Teri what
the you know the terrious plugin you talked about earlier that got deleted
Well i believe the trace left on r/theotown reddit
Dunno if they've deleted it or not
ok
What is bro on about
Phull sapport to who
Nvm bro im joking..also no politics here i just remember 
yk..certain middle eastern country
I have a feeling you are from either 🇵🇰 🇮🇳 🇧🇩
your nuclear power plant name sounds like a city on that "country"
Nah im Indonesian
Same same but different
I assume you came from Mumbai judged by your name
Duh
I thought you are Indonesian when I saw the metro names
Because i am indeed an indonesian?
Yup no doubt bout it
Are you an Indonesian too?
Mumbai is in India bro
This is the new nuclear plant I made
When did I do that
this
Duh = obviously
So you are cousin of Mota bhai(Ambani) right?🌚🌚🌚
Ain't no gujjar here
Then Marwadi?
Mumbai is in maharashtra and Maharashtrans are marathi lol
No the marwadi community I meant obviously
Obviously I'm not marvadi
Because Moti Chain Mota Paisa🤑🤑🤑
You marvadi?
Naah Brahmin with an Katyayana gotra
Oh i dont care about your caste.. I'm not one of those
I was just asking for simple state or city
BBSR
Like I would know bbsr lol
Me too but had no other option to say as I don't know what community I belong to
Arre Bhai East ka BBSR bhubaneswar, Odisha ka capital
Are your guys going to move to general ? That channel would be suitable for a chat like this .
So what do you think?
How do i tag people on other tab
Just use that @ one
I use invisible road to build a non isometric building
rate the redesign
From designing chaos to a concrete jungle
Generally, cities won't destroy their city hall to pave a path for more buildings, outside of that, the rest look good, so 9/10
It looks so ugly that's why I removed it, I only minimized it(you can't see it in the 2nd picture because that big blue building is blocking it)
it's not ugly, only the surrounding area is, I was lazy during that time
I am planning to redesign the whole island city because it looks so mid compared to the other cities near it
Diagonal clearance
combo of mew's advanced roads and the leaf road expansion pack
??
My opinion on how on earth you were able to place that thing on ocean
Dis one
fill tool
Naah, heck heck heck
forgot that I have a area that have the same level of the river
pardon?
Maybe
Who knows what type of thing I ate at the restaurant located near the highway today
Who is Klukai tbh?
hk416 in-game that called GFL2 but btw use different channel as we are going off topic
Ok thanks for the information 🙏🙏🙏
Oh jeez don't tell me that actually happened..@fast plinth
It happened to my other city, lost all my plugins because I was trying to fix lag💔
Ah.
Now I am trying to be moreee careful
Yeah. Definitely be more careful
I forgot to send yesterday's picture
dont jinx it
Bus routes so far
Thank you
progress
Interesting having all the U turn spots
Any tips to improve it?
they're not only U-turn spots, they're also access roads that give you access from 1 roadway to another
Plaza
Js asking, would you guys understand this intersection
Why would u make this
a city with taiwanese sytle
I tried to make a simple one
It cool but it also looks like there will be so much taffic
Traffic*
The bridge is a bit ugly
I thought u were trolling 😭
The intersection is pretty bad tbh
I dont really understand whats going on
From what i could tell theres a large highway that leads into a road on the top, and on the left its an intersection
I dont think u need that much going on, it seems too overcomplicated
Looks like it's in Taiwan
Nice choice of towers?
It looks like Madrid
Fordley Pkwy and Ashwood Rd
yup:3
indeed
I feel like the shader you're using is making it look bad
Not using one. Can't find a realistic one
Try Atmosphere LC
Try Atmosphere LC
After a plane crash which totaled 48 lives, this airport had to be shutdown,during the 1928 Large theo Earthquake, the pieces of the runway got off and floated to the sea. Now the roads are rotting and there is a lot of moss.
Is the government corrupt or something, why don't they build roads (joke)
Have a link?
Still feeling iffy about if I like the kind of stuff occupying this space but i think ill keep it
random building on the middle of the river
It's in plugin store
Just search shader and you'll find it
Same intersection, how it looks now
Try LC, in the settings it looks better than the original
Names and faint colored areas
I'm talking about the fancy or extra fancy thing
0/10?
suggestions?
On my phone it does something strange with crosswalks and most close lines
are you talking about indonesia my country
Some other countries have the same exact problem,not only indonesia.
-# please refrain from any political topic.
I didn't say nothin about Indonesia ❌✌️
You just described it
Btw, i don't want to get political
ok
What's the name of your road plug in?
Bringing up indonesia for no reason😭
Thanks for liking it😍but we should be speaking English here🧐
Spui
???
the first half of the interchange is finally done...
Not again bruh 😭 please don't try to ping everyone or else the mods might come after you
It's been a while since I've seen a fairly simple looking airport taxiways and runway
whats the tower name
Which tower? Be more specific
the tall skinny watchtower
ehh y'know what
the tower that looks like a airport control tower
Cool
SG?
yep
😋
hope you can build more traditional Singaporean-style streets🇸🇬😜
QNA: is the light cool
How did you manage to make the vehicles move horizontally
it's the tlcap
The what?
The leaf civil automobile pack.
Check in LPC server
LPC server?
Yes
What LPC server
Leaf ploogin community
ngl someone should pin the server lists
Where can i find that
there are some changes to the 2nd part of the interchange, but all the roads' routes are unaffected, so its not really bothersome
I don't get it...
?...
I don't know how that works
the 3rd picture shows you where the roads will take the drivers driveng on it
an interchange is an intersection, just for highways instead of smaller roads
and; just like an intersection, it redirects traffic from 1 highway to another highway
She never touched advance road before ig
Yeah i know, i only use the vanilla preset interchanges so i don't get how other complex road designs work
ahh...
Not a single QoL plugin yes
I'm still playing pure vanilla
If u want, u can download advanced road and invisible road on the store
this is how it works
or rather, a tutorial on how to build it
...hmmmm, I kinda want to create a new revised up-to-date lesson about non-iso roads
ive only done 3 tips about roads...
Umm... No, my brain is short circuiting after seeing it, im just going to use regular roads...
you can still build complex stuff even with regular roads, i remember building this from a long time ago...
That still looks like a plugin
it doesnt matter, roads like that are only really change in terms of visual texture, not actual functionality
I mostly use DSA roads and highways when making fast roads, although i just use the small vanilla interchanges cuz i like using up the city space for more buildings, i really hope they add a feature where, when you build a complex structure of multiple assets (roads, decorations, buildings, etc.) you can save it as a preset structure, like the vanilla interchanges and train terminals, they're a structure composed of multiple parts, but you can demolish its parts block by block
When you don't wanna use advanced roads💔
It looks good yeah, it has that realistic feeling to it, but my smooth monke brain isn't good at understand complex stuff to make those massively detailed roads
I only understand vanilla roads like "Place, connect, decor" done
I make these complex roads just for them to get covered by buildings so tuff
Yeah, that too lol
what do you think is the most common mindset of most expert road builders when they build intricately decorated roads?
thats right, its the same as you've said "place, connect, decor" its just that the "decor" part is the longest part & the "place" part is a lot more in content
Long calculation symbols + the complex multiple assets of the advanced roads plugin + engineering PhD
Building the road is the easy part, detailing it is the hard part. It's a very long and tedious process. It depends on how detailed and complicated you want it to be
I've probably spent more time detailing my roads than actually building the city lol
What's worst is that they're usually covered up by buildings especially tall ones 😭
bro, I'm only below 18, i don't have an engineering PhD, & you don't really need to use complex symbols when building roads
what im trying to get across is that building complex roads may look scary from the outside, but when you try it, its actually simple layers just stacked together
I like it simple, cuz road is road. You only need them to connect buildings, only need to decorate it a little to be a bit realistic, and majority of them are just going to be covered by high-rise buildings later
You're playing the game in the vanilla way while i play the game using plugins. And that's fine because every player playstyle is different
ah..., so you do prefer simplicity without soul, rather than hectic but intricate, i cant argue with that
again, everything ive said is just an opinion, dual is right
The main point is, its mostly the skyscrapers are the ones being highlighted in city builds, majority of the roads just get covered under them, unless you made it so that the roads never get covered
yeah... ig so
In my Lyndarra build most of the roads are actually not detailed, the ones that are detailed are the one who are visible, this kinda saves me a lot of time. Unlike in Tippenard where almost every single roads are filled with details.
Yeah i know, i do like the visuals advanced roads have, but I'm not really here to build highly detailed roads, I'm here to build towns & cities
True
I also just decorate roads that are visible only
i personally like to put effort even when i have to cover it up, because it kinda makes your city feel, "special" like its alive, because those intricate, elegant, & beautiful details become hidden gems & unique features, like the city has its own soul
although again, its up to the player to unleash their imagination
It's not just road detail but detailing in general like people and props (hey it's the name of that one plugin).
Mostly i do decorate roads even if not visible just when I fully consider it "complete" cuz i don't have anything else to do there lol
I meant when i consider a city "complete"
thats great, so i guess thats where this discussion should end
I... I'm sorry i kinda want to finish the interchange so that I can finally rest, anyways, it was nice talking to you guys, cya... maybe sometime
Bye, hope you finish your builds too
My progress on my current city build is very slow cuz I'm trying to look for other cities to cop-i mean, replicate artistic vanilla designs
exterminator is right
interchanges can look good with pretty much any road
it's just a matter of skill
Advanced roads is just vectors and tedious work
how does my town look? it's my first time playing and had some good fast progress
And then you rotate it💔
What happens if you rotate it ;-;
why u want rotate, if u rotate the building also won't rotate
then this happens;
absolutely amazing turns into absolute abomination
;-; what... what am i looking at...
its a previous project i build but rotated
What does it look originally
sadly, ive scrapped this project since its mostly a very very very long training phase when i was making myself used to building US styled cities
Ok, I'm convinced. I'm not using advanced roads... I tend to rotate when building...
Oh, rip
last forward progress i had for it was this:
i stopped building it at central station
@fallen trench so when you buying the Nitro pack again?
I mostly try to finish all my City builds whenever possible, haven't abandoned any cities I'm currently building, tho they're massively delayed
It was just a trial, i didn't buy it
i stopped building it because the central station railway station meant i had to change every single road section of this city to fit grounded rails
Oh
it was simply too astronomical of a thing to continue building especially since this was just a city which is a part of a larger extensive region
it wouldve driven me mad
XD
like fr, ive gone insane already but doing that wouldve made me loose the last resemblance of sanity i had remaining
"WW2 soldier" ahh comment
;-; well, i have an "Even Bigger" 1 city region, it's very massive like the size of Tributaries map but merged altogether, i plan to build there but I'm still looking for a lot of cities to gain inspiration and replicate most good designs, and I'm still practicing manually building stuff, I'm still terrible at it
I am back from the duengons
girl you really ought to test your patience huh?
The university observatoriun
building even vanilla cities in even bigger regions take months, even years of dedication, motivation, & patience
Yeah, I'm not yet ready to do that colossal build project, so I'm just practicing with smaller maps XD
yeah, good luck with your practices!, im off to build a nuclear power plant! cya later!
Holy light pollution
Wip
That's massive ;-; i thought you were just building the regular nuke plant
I'll try to improve it by your guys suggestions.
It looks good tbh,just by adding sidewalk or trees might help I think
Are you joking or something
???
No the road actually looks good according to me well
bollards so less chance of someone dashing into the road
maybe
Where
along de sidewok
Thanks, but im talking about the sidewalk thing you said
Ahh okay
Well, I said because as the mayor of the city, we should also think about those who do difficult marathons😅
But i have sidewalks tho, i also even have zebra crossings
Hmmmm, then no problem
What name from the city of 2 photo?
why is there water holes in the airport
desert coast rain can be unexpectable

💧
What plugins do you use for trees and this ?
Those are from the bus lane plugin
For the decoration
And the other trees idk
anyone got any good plugins like residential and roads would be cool and also some skyscrapers
I got one its the advanced road plugin
And the Philippine road pack
What are those lights plugin, mine doesn't have lights
Sunlight overlays by yakka or sunlight overlays by miuku
the lonesome foghorn blows
I cant find the advanced roads
Where do i find it
I cant find in the game plugin
Plugin store
Need 80 diamond to get
you mean this one bud
Oh, my bad, they changed the name so i got confused
this one or the leaf's version of it are really the best ones ive used
but you should try the phillipine road pack if you're interested
power plant is (partially) complete
theres now also a water supply & sewage treatment plant
i guess thats the east of ward island done
now time to return to the spaghetti monstrosity
Holy!
Just wait until i have enough dias to buy better plugins
-# i quit from pirating
Wow is this a fictional town @empty lake ?
They should make power lines weaker each tiles so we can use the bigger power lines realistically and functionally
he building the cali bay area
Interchange i thought of
I grew up in the bay area as well, im getting homesick
Should I use advanced roads for my GTA sa recreation or should I just use normal so it would be quick
Decisions decisions decisions
yes, its US eastern & western coast based
Bus lanes and that toll is like from a train plugin and a bridge pillar plugin, i can't remember
The toll is a tutorial from Harlo, check him out!
How can i get those?
Do i put those in the plugins file?
Any tips for the road layout? Im having a hard time using the advanced road
Holy over build
Then dont rotate it, its not like you use it often
why are you getting pressed💔 it's a joke
Any tips for the advanced road?
Are plugins supposed to be Zips?
Wym pressed?
yes
Joke? More like satire
Should i unzip?
no
Its loaded that way
just place them in the Theotown "plugins" folder
not the "managed plugins" folder just the "plugins" folder one
What is this man 😔☝️
