Hello, the trees on the map don't appear.

thanks guys for your kind words

wauw very nice

Wow, just wow. It´s an incredibly beautiful map. So beautiful. Strongly recommended. Build areas are almost completely flat but still detailed. I can´t stress enough how much I love this map

This map is fantastic. Two comments:
1) There is no Tuna fish, right?
2) I blame the game developers to not allow realistic turnouts on train tracks. You need to have mods and learn how to create your own turnouts. You may destroy the beautiful track design of this map, so be mindful.

ok, i will check it out. thanks.

@J/S2046: to get that dark blue water color you need AD Cloud AND Cubemap Replacer Mod

i really enjoyed the map and how it looks but since the update. idk what it but color is off. i did the setting like you said to have as. i cant get them to look like how it looked as before. any thoughts? thanks.

Just subscribed to this map as I want to create some "funky" vibe train tracks crossing many rivers and going through tunnels/bridges for my three old son (he loves watching trains in CS) and I absolutely adore this map! It just looks amazing! Thank you so much for this incredible work! No I just need to find the strength to abandon my old city :D

@mactrix: i may quote mayself from the description above: "If you can't select the Theme when starting a New Game you may need to subscribe to the Environment Changer Mod."

It won't apply the custom theme. I subscribed but cannot select when starting a new game.

I like the map

@axelanius: i tested the map without mods and you can connect the vanilla 3 lane highway (or other same size or smaller roads) to the existing city entrance. But you are right, this map may not suitable for beginners

@Ragnar: all outside rail connections can enter the start square, there are some crossings hidden underground and in the border fog

The map is beautiful but definitely not for strictly vanilla players. It's very difficult if you play the game normally, creating a city entrance on the starting square is almost impossible, the highways are too close to eachother. The map is beautiful and very well made, but more suited for heavy moded plays.

This is a stunning map! It's hard to build in a way that does justice to the underlying map :D

One question: only two of the rail connections enter the start square, the others bypass it and go to one of the other two connections - is that intentional?

@Crystal Rose: thanks for your kind words!

Amazing work! Thank you for sharing. Two thumbs up, fav'd and subscribed. Good Luck with this map and all your future endeavors.

nice map

"And I definitely don't want to mess with the brilliant asthetics (5 * by BonBonB by the way) on this map."
I'll be the judge of that one ;-)
PS Show already recorded and will be out tomorrow (What Map 1596)

(please don't watch Biffa's strict vanilla series on Sidai's snow map on Youtube if not prepared to see a near perfect rail line layout completely destroyed in the most insensitive way)

@Neko~Kyun!:

That's a known issue and standing "problem" in this kind of high end vanilla maps. Which also effects upgrading and sometimes connecting highways.

If you want to see this in full effect, watch Biffa's strict vanilla series on Sidai's snow map on Youtube. It's hilarious.

I say "problem" in quotes because that only effects you, if you don't have one or two really essential mods like Move it or Network Anarchy. Having access to this map means having access to this mods and they are fine with the poorest of potato PCs and they are highly, highly recommended. I personally think, that's just a question of taste and these maps are still vanilla. Because they are still perfectly playable without these mods - you just may have to tear down a highway (ramp) or a rail line and build it new lesser nice, when upgrading it or because it's desastered.

As far as I knew, there's nothing a map maker can do about this - besides painting the map lesser nice in the first place.

Wow, this map is criminally underscrored. 4/5 out of 93 (ninetythree!)? That's harsh for such a great map.

@Stalker: Thank you, but there are already enough windy hills in the start square. But I don't want my loud turbines there in the nice residential area. And I was especially thrilled that Sidai gave me (just for me, hehe) an extra windy flat spot where industry sensibly belongs anyway. And it works. It's blue on the wind map everytime. It just doesn't work for me. Can't be the maps fault I think.

And I definitely don't want to mess with the brilliant asthetics (5 * by BonBonB by the way) on this map.

Screw it, I cheated my way shamelessly untill unlocking geothermal, which is also realistic on this islands anyway. :)

It's just a curiosity I think at this point.

LOVE THIS MAP... But... I had a natural disaster that destroyed some rail lines, and now I cannot repair the rail lines because they're SO tightly packed together...

@bobfahren Try landscaping a hill under the turbines. More height = more wind = more power.

very nice for those looking for lots of ferries and limited, but far separated build space

Well done Sidai! Excellent map as per usual! :)

@bobfahren: thanks for your kind words, i just checked (again :) the starting highway, you only need to delete that very small segment connecting the two lanes and then you are good to go.

Oh, and I love the meteor crater. :)

... And then I didn't have any more money for more turbines. I then cheated two with Move it. I don't know if this has anything to do with the map and if there is anything you can do about it, but I have never experienced it like this. Crazy.

And I think you should make road anarchy a requirement, because the starting highway access can not be connected without. Or I was too stupid, one or the other.

I think it's a bit of a shame that I probably won't see this map again in my favourite map test because of your disclaimer, but that's life and I understand you (apart from the fact that it's none of my business either). But I think that map test has never fulfilled "non-commercial purposes only" anyway. 2/2

What a beautiful map, as usual with Sidai. Slowly, one can hardly find words of praise, because what never seemed achievable has become normality with you.

And I'm the first guilder, great. :)

I loaded it and played to the first 600ish Inhabitants. I only have the Theme, the LUT, Hide it, IMT and Node Controller. None of the other recommended visual maps and not Environment Changer Mod. Works perfect and looks near enough to the screenshots for me (what a sunrise!).

Unfortunately, I ran into a strange problem, because the strong wind corner that you built especially in the start square was at some point not enough to supply my little village, even with three wind turbines. Because the wind is permanently at force ... I think it dropped to 4, in any case they together emitted < 13 MW. ...

1/2

Stunning

Wow! Incredible work, once again Sidai, absolutely beautiful! Truly honored to be able to inspire others

Beutiful

It was a pleasure to test this wonderful map!

Great mail! Yay! Stupendous!
