This is great! best underground station if seen so fat thats overground!

Can u make more please and remind me

Pedestrian paths are wonky.. indeed they often make connections with roads and other paths merely by proximity. We need a mod like TM:PE to have a feature that recognizes all pedestrian paths (especially those embedded inside assets) and allows us to prevent them from being used.

@Agamemnicon wow. I love what you did with it! @YUMBLtv glad you both like it.

I can take a look re: crossing at the ends of the platform, but I think the issue might be that the pathways for the platforms are just close enough together because of the width of the tracks that the game can find a path between the nodes at the ends, sort of like how you can have a vanilla paved path near a road with a sidewalk and pedestrians will find their way between them. I'm not sure if there's much I can do about that (or frankly, if I actually know enough about asset creation to fix it), but if any asset creator has suggestions I'd gladly hear them!

@Chris6d I started trying to make one that works as a bypass station inspired by Beverley/Cortelyou Rd. stations in Brooklyn, but the technical issues I was having with them were... a lot. I might try again but I was getting reaaaaaaaaally frustrated. sorry about responding so late, I needed to take a long break from the game and now I'm back to work so I don't have as much free time.

@YUMBLtv I'm noticing that too. I've been drawing a pedestrian path across that top walkway, although I need to check if those pedestrians are just walking THROUGH the station or actually using the platform. Check the 3rd photo in the link I posted July 1st

In my experience the peds won't use the overpass. Theyll cross the tracks at either end of the station. Any fix for this? Otherwise it's wonderful.

I absolutely love this station. I'm not a fan of metro in the game because you can't see what's happening. I wouldn't be using the new vanilla metro with Sunset Harbor without your station. Thank you!

Here's some of the work I've done with it so far: https://imgur.com/a/t8Lvx3F

Can you please make one with 4 tracks, like a bypass station? That'd be epic

Wow! This is just what my city needs, and I haven't found any other assets like this. Thank you so much for your hard work!

:D

@gamer_110 hey, thanks a bunch, that's real kind of you to say.

This is an amazing tube station, there are barely any sunken train/tube stations on the workshop.
It fits really well in any area of a city that looks like outer London :)

@Sint Holo yeah, it's a lil' on the hefty side, I'll give you that. Unfortunately to get the whole model properly functioning with all the textures displayed properly I had to split the building into a couple of smaller sub-buildings, which definitely increases the file size. A lot of that is also the props, though. Tube stations have a lot of signage and I was trying to make it as realistic as I could in that regard. If you don't subscribe to those (maybe you don't want a London theme, idk), that should help. Every other prop I used is vanilla so your game is already loading those anyways.

All that said, I'm working on another one that's giving me a bit more trouble, but I've managed to do a better job cleaning up the model so that it only needs two parts. Hopefully that'll help the file size.

@melbchef2 I wasn't planning on making this into a train version just because I'm focusing on the new vanilla metro updates, but I'll end up working on some train stations as well I'm sure.

@Sint Holo - I will take 30 over the 140MB that MOM is which does NOT include all the additional assets it requires just to have a decent looking above-ground metro. Right now it is one of the very extremely few non-vanilla looking Metro stations that is above ground that does not require MOM.

30mb!? Are you bloody kidding? It looks great, but not 30mb great!

love this asset any chance of a train version of it ?

I have been trying to look up pictures of the ones you have mentioned LOL But I can only seem to find tracks and vehicles :P and signs but not the actual pics of stations :) See for me, I finally have a little metro I love to watch on the tracks. So I want to be able to see it. The vanilla one covers the tracks, yours does not so I was excited. That was the big thing for me LOL Otherwise I would have stuck to underground :)

PT2

I have been planning on using this set of houses with an above ground metro as part of more...touristy but yet cozy elite?

I have been playing with roads and colors to try and make it better blend with the whole area as I still am trying to get it as I envision it if you will. I will get it to mesh. It will just take me a minute :)

Uh... I have areas and they blend into other areas. I am still at the beginning of this map. I tend to redo things frequently until I find them perfect. So pardon the incompleteness of places as I jump around.

Keeping this one by my hospital: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2093716535

I want to replace this one. It is my power/waste/services area

I am thinking of replacing the Harbor but the bus station is staying.

@Allystra thank YOU! just out of curiosity, what city style are you working on? My original idea for a sunken metro station was actually based on the BMT Brighton Beach line in Brooklyn, NY, but I started looking at London and forgot all about NYC for a bit. But I'm super open to checking out inspiration from around the world, I have four or five different builds based on places around the world and jump back and forth between them depending on my mood. If there's a style that you're going for in particular I'd love to check it out, especially if it's something I haven't seen before. No promises that I make anything in particular but I'm always looking for interesting design elements!

(also I have a couple of actual ground level metro stations that don't require MOM in the works, hopefully one of those will be up in a few days?!)

buildings in it look really cool!

Thank you so much


I just the day before had been looking for an above ground metro that DID NOT require MOM. I couldn't believe I couldn't find one since it is now part of the base game now.... I have no desire to get a whole mod just to have one :) It doesn't exactly fit my city style but I honestly don't care at this point :p LOL It is beautiful nonetheless and I now have it in my game in use and it works wonderfully. I actually leveled to ground level for my particular use which now it just looks like it has taller doors but not in a bad way.

I hope more take to your example and please keep up the good work!!

looks fantastic, wish i had a use for it though.

@clus thanks! coming from you that means a ton :)
@hemeac thank you, and I actually tried dialling back the brightness using the same textures for another station I'm working on, and I see exactly what you mean. I was hesitant to turn down the brightness at all because I find a lot of the themes I like have beautiful colours but are just way too dark and I end up having to use relight to turn the brightness back up again, but changing it in blender wasn't as drastic as I thought it was!

I'd follow @clus advice over mine, but I find that colours that work well in CS are a bit dark within Blender and it helps for me to know if it is coming together the way that I like. Regardless, a thumbs up and excited to see what your next projects are.

Hey ! I haven't used it so far, but it looks great on the pictures ! Well done ! Thumbs up ! :)

@hemeac thanks for the feedback! I had been dialling back the saturation while texturing in Blender, but I didn't actually touch the diffuse after baking it. I'll try it out!

Looks really great, working on stations can be a pain. Only based on your screenshots and depending on what it would look like in real life, I may make the diffuse map just a touch darker. After modelling in Blender, I've started knocking down the saturation -15 and lightness -30 in Photoshop for the diffuse map that I import to the game. I think that helps the assets keep their colour in the mid-day shots.

Great Asset! There have been a lack of ground metro stations so this is nice.
