Hello to those in the community: I am working on a new map, with the main influence being from Cape Town, which is a nice, beautiful city in South Africa (I'm not South African, but i love the city's scenery). I don't want to be too controversial, and i have read the forum's rules, but considering the current water crisis in Cape Town, I'm not sure if it was a good time to be making this map. Still WIP, very WIP, but it is going good so far. So the terrain is not grabbed from terrain.party at all, unlike the Saba Island map. Treat this map like a work of art. It's not meant to be taken seriously. Just say it's like Cape Town meets East Coast USA or something like that. It's fantasy, not real at all. Because I've made the stupid mistake of putting the terrains Y-axis at 9+ km from the center axis, you may experience shaking when driving with the interior camera. That is a mistake on my part and should not be a pain if you play on third-person mode. It still shouldn't affect on car crashes by the way! Screenshots: Lots of buildings for your role playing, dashcam and movie-making needs! This is what i meant by "being Cape Town inspired" I will be working on the poorer areas of the map too, just to let you know. Lots of road signs will be on this map, I promise!. P.S: If anyone wants to help me (custom buildings, traffic lights, etc), feel free to contact me! P.P.S: Thanks for the kind support to those so far! Don't be expecting a release date soon (still needs lots of work ahead of it) and if i am putting the map on hold, there will be a notice at the beginning of this forum page.
Man... Your paranoia is plain dumb, and someone being offended by building the city in a game sounds like someone that souldnt be giving opinions to begin with. Great to see even more cities being made in this game!
Looks good so far, man. You've got a solid foundation and plenty of material to work and expand upon. Forget about "controversy", make what you want to make. It is your map, you are the creator. Allow critiques, but disregard those who have no desire but to make a mountain from a molehill.
Exaggerating small thing to something bigger than life which it is not. https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=make a mountain out of a molehill Which in this context means that if someone would bring up poor areas in political context while they are just the poor areas in a city, you are supposed to ignore them. I agree with that.
Sorry about not posting in a while; I am very busy, with homework, and other commitments. So I've got some new screenshots to show you. And this is what happens when you look at the insides of one of the many road signs that I've placed on the map; Don't worry, you won't see road signs like this on the outside, they just look like regular road signs from the outside! And here is a screenshot of a "eucalyptus farm", with the trees coming from B25Mitch's Mt. Glorious (He did state his assets were free to use!) I'll post a better screenshot of the eucalyptus farm tomorrow!
Well, it seems nobody has replied. I'm still here by the way. I've got some nice pictures of checkpoints, an industrial area. and a mega bus station, near the airport. Gotta go!
