I can see how it would be frustrating to build a grid city on this map. Hope you find one you like better :)

Nice map, but the beginning of building the city is a tragedy, the roundabouts are crooked, there is no straight line, it is at an angle, I gave up building on this map because it is impossible to relax with this map and build anything straight

Thats what i looked for!

Ah okay, I see it now, yea that is kinda weird.

It's a bit weird, you have to scroll down past all the default maps to find the workshop maps, even when you list them alphabetically! Just keep on scrolling... if they're still not there, go to Content Manager, maps, and make sure they are activated (blue box).

So maybe I'm stupid, which is very likely but I cannot seem to find this map in the map list, in fact I don't see any workshop maps, just the official ones.

Yeah I'm all about not wasting land. Love that little underground freeway spur you made, too. Actually creates a perfect little harbor area in the river delta :)

Glad it works for you! I try to make all different kinds of maps but I always ask myself the question "If I were __x__ kind of player, what would I want in a map?" This one's for the mega city players who don't want the hassle of uneven or wasted land.

Man I wish more people would make maps like this. Consolidated center with a nice situated coast and hilly suburbs. This and Great Plan are probably the only maps I can find that actually fit my idea of 'where I would put a city' lol.

Thanks! I hope your city did well :)

The best map i have ever played on

Love this map! Still waiting on Steeltown II and Rio Monte II. ;)

Glad you're having fun with it @Osu!

Fantastic! I've tried so many maps and this is my favorite so far. I love the flat area in the center with room for building and lots of small resource areas. So many maps have resources all clumped together. Thanks so much for the amazing map. My current city is my favorite thanks to this great map. Keep up the great work!

That's great SpaceMonKey! Hope you have lots of fun as mayor!

Really enjoy this map, thanks.

Great. Thank you for the suggestions. Palm's Time settings are actually nice. I am going to try it out.

Hi, I can't play with vanilla graphics, either. :) You can definitely improve the looks of your game with those three mods. My settings for a temperate map (each biome has very different lighting):

* Daylight Classic: only Classic Daylight Intensity, and if using Cubemap Replacer (which I do), also the Classic Fog Effect which triggers the custom cubemap (sky) to appear.

* Relight & Ultimate Eyecandy:
For a fall / autumn look, my settings are in images of this theme: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1774582619

For a summer look, Palm's Time has the best settings. I tweak them a little and only use the Daylight Classic settings I mentioned above, but basically I base my settings off of his because they rock.
Go to this page, How To Use section number 4 and follow his instructions, but ignore the Ploppable Asphalt mod (it slows computers a LOT) and Unlimited Trees. https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2056533368

@MrMiyagi. This is a very good made map, easy to work with. Even though I understand it is a vanilla map, I still like to use some tweaking with lighting etc.
So, would you recommend a theme and LUT for this map? Perhaps to go further, Daylight Classic settings, Ultimate Eye Candy and Relight settings recommendations

*theme, not meme lol

Hi, nope, there was no theme attached. This is a harmless bug everybody experiences at some point.
If you just want vanilla (default theme) or you're trying to load a custom meme, just press "ok for a default theme", and you'll get what you actually chose from the menu before you pressed load.

Also, unrelated tip: be sure to always select "load game" rather than "continue"

Hi. Love this map. I'm getting a loading message saying that the theme used for this map is not loaded? Does this map have a specific theme that it uses. Thanks

@oofinatort800 that's literally impossible to happen. It's a vanilla (default) map, so it's as basic as can get.
Let me see if I can help. If you signed up for a new mod, try unsubscribing from it for now, and retrying the loading. Some mods like Ploppable Pavement add a huge amount of time to loading. If you've added any new assets or a new DLC, these can also slow down your loading time.

Your loading time should never be 5 to 10 minutes, anyway, so here's some good advice. Get Loading Screen Mod. This will tell you, while your game is loading, if you're exceeding your RAM limit (which it seems clear you are). If you are, you need to get rid of custom assets and mods that add assets (like road mods).

Hope this helps

I'd love to use this map but it adds an extra 5-10 minutes to my loading time

Forgive me for questioning your wisdom sensei. I haven't played vanilla in over 3 years so that's news to me!

That was done on purpose - the madness has a reason :D. Because this is geared to vanilla players, it's a vanilla solution to a quirky, annoying AI behavior on that type of interchange. If you don't use TMPE to force the onramps to turn either way and forbid continuing forward, a number of cars and trucks that *should* stay on the highway actually use the onramp and offramp instead of staying on the highway. I downgraded them to 2 lane road because the AI will not choose those ramps since the speed is reduced. Also, two lane ramps are available only with Mass Transit or NExt2.

The only minor problem I've seen is that the ramps for the highway interchange at the bottom of the start square are standard low speed roads, easy to upgrade to proper ramps...

Hi Mr. Chiweenie, thanks for the kind words. Whenever someone has a problem with their game, I always try to help. 99% of the time it's something not about the map at all, but I can still help them fix since I hear about the latest issues people are facing. It's almost always due to a mod, which I either know the answer to or can point them in the right direction, or it's a mechanic in the game that a beginner might not know, and I'm always glad to help beginners.

Every now and then there are people who point the finger at X (a modder, the developer) and when we give them the answer how fix for their problem, they ignore your help and keep raging. We even create guides to help beginners avoid these kinds of problems, but I guess some people just want to yell at someone. Oh well. I tried. :D

rossc007, since you're also posting nonsense problems on other vanilla maps of mine, it's clear you're just here to waste my time. If you were a smarter troll, you'd complain about something that wasn't a technical impossibility . so... Auf Wiedersehen.

Well sorry a couple of you are having trouble but it's really a fantastic map and I have had no issues at all despite all my mods including 81 tiles and NE 2.. I strongly recommend this amazing map.

At this point most people tune out, but I'm still wanting to point you in the right direction. This guide will help you a lot. It may or may not rescue your current city but if you want to play a city with mods again, PLEASE read and learn https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1411897315

As a rule, I use VERY few mods exactly for the problems you ran into. It took a long time to learn how to avoid mod problems, so check out my safe mods collection here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1964523103

None of those problems are possible for a map to cause - in PARTICULAR, a vanilla map! You've got other problems going on there. It's also impossible for a vanilla map to not be compatible with 25 squares or 81 squares mod. 99.8% chance you're using mods that are conflicting with each other. There are tons of mods that have been abandoned that people still use and cause havoc in their cities, which is so aggravating because we lose all that work we put in when old mods clash with one another.

Doesnt work with my industries dlc, no buyers for products and not enough resources for ore or Farms, ie cows, sheep pigs , for years now with this map. Not compatible with 25 tiles mod or 81 tiles mod. Have given up on this map its just wasting my time !!!!!! NOT HAPPY

Cool! Share some screenshots if you want :)

Built it with a European theme and Clerya lut. Gorgeous!

This map is so beautiful.

Thanks willem! Yeah, we didn't know that ore and oil would be offshore :D Something you can always do with any of my maps is open them in map editor, add / change whatever you want (so that your city starts off just the way you want it), save with a different file name in both places on the save screen, and enjoy your customized map! :) Will love to see what changes & improvements people make

This Map is awesome, just what i had in mind for a proper middle European Map, ok it's connected to the sea, but thats the only difference. The damn is awesome and the Rest of the Map the Map as well. It's perfect for almost any City you have in mind which is not reliable on the Terrain. The only Thing that is missing is probably the Ressources in the Water(Oil and Ore) since you had the Industries DLC in mind. But thats a small point against that incredible Map.
And just to leave this personal Note, after this long text.
I will still play the Original Map regardless of the Missing Ore and Oil in the Water. This is almost Perfect. 99% Dude. Great Work

I've seen this before from other players. It's not possible for a map to do this, but regardless I can put you on the right track to finding what this glitch is caused by. I don't remember which it was specifically, but I believe it was caused by a mod or mod conflict.

I love the map, but I had an issue where there was traffic driving above the ground on a non existent road. Has anyone else noticed this? It was in the starting square, and it traveled from lower mid left to the top middle.

Great! That's a good point, and I think 81 tiles players will like some islands offshore, too.

I managed to make the dam reallistic. I love the map. The only thing I would add is a little island in the coast for a cool ferry transport system, but anyways the map is perfect.

Thanks, glad you like them, FullRefund! I have taken requests, but for the foreseeable future I'm chock full of maps in the process and map requests to make :D Halifax is a very nice part of the world!

Truly a map genius, I love every map you make. You probably don't take requests but here goes... How about a map of the Halifax, NS, Canada area? It would make for a wonderful Cities Skylines map. There are lots in the workshop but they all are really bad (including the one I spent countless hours on which I since removed).

Anyway, keep up the great work, love your stuff!

Yes,´the waterfall will disappear. You can always build a different type of electric plant, some good ones are on the workshop

If i do the damn where you mark, the waterfall would dissapear? I dont like it at all. Thanks

You're welcome! Happy building!

Great map. Thank you!

Thank you for the response. I actually was having issues with the workshop download... A problem on my end. I have recently worked it out and am currently enjoying your map. Great stuff. Thank you so much.

Coool! Excited to see you back pdelmo!
Hi Pat, they're hiding below the regular default maps. After clicking New Game, which gives you the map choice window, you have to scroll past the default ones in A-Z list, then starts the workshop maps listed A-Z I dunno why they did that :D
