Nice Town

Awesome stuff here towncrafter.

The city of Wickham is now messed up. I wanted to put seawalls on the rest of the shores and so I put the zerosealevel.dat file in the plugins and the city crashed. I removed all other files in the plugins and got no crash. Then I put in some more and discovered the italia terrain was causing the crash. I removed it, then fixed up the shore for the seawalls, saved, put in the zerosezlevel.dat again, did the seawalls, saved. Then I put every plugin back in except for the italia terrain. The spam farms and most of the lots are empty. So, I will not be recreating Wickham, because that's too much work. It was a good town. I'll still be working on the other tiles in the region and will continue to show you those. But as for Wickham? Wickham is dead now.

UPDATE: Thanks to Cheesey's help, I was able to restore the city to an earlier save, and Wickham is now back. ) Thank you also to brian and tiger for your help.

sorry it took me so long to respond- anyway I love the look- with the RHW thing- I love how you incorperated the round about at the end of your exit- it gives it a nice feel and cuts back on congestion. smart move. With RHW if you watch mine and other peoples CJ's that use RHW you'll see all kinds of different looks. Also the town reminds me of my own real life town- I live in an oil town and so we are beginning to return to life around here- used to be that the town was becoming a ghost town- so dirty industry helps to bring a town to life. Love your ideas. Keep it up.

Wickham is back!
I found two watermod files hidden away in many levels of subfolders and it looks like they were the cause of the city crashing whenever I put the zerosealevel.dat file in the plugins folder. Now that those two files are gone, I've been working on putting seawalls on more shoreline.

The Northshore of the Wicke River...


The two ponds in the towncenter...

I like the natural look of the city although its becoming urbanized, and I think those seawalls are very good.

Love the seawalls, they look really good in those situations.

Those seawalls are nice

Great Seawalls

Love the update. The walls look great, and it's a nice use of space.

I like this city very much, it looks warm and very much alive (is it because of the water and terrain mods?)
Where did you get those sea walls in the last picture?

The water mod is dogfight's marshy water.
The terrain is maxis.
The seawalls are JS Seawalls V3.
The water mod and seawalls can be found on STEX.

Wickham was growing and now has a population over 15,000. Wickham has schools, and hospitals, and a library, and places to work and shop and live. Recreation was provided through small parks and a golf course. Wickham needed more areas of recreation. The forest in the northeast was a good place to put that.

Softball fields and a soccer field were put next to the golf course...


A network of paths and a couple of ponds were built in the forest. This turned it into a nice place to relax while preserving the forest.


Here's how Wickham looks now...


Caxton is the district south of Wickham and we'll visit it next.
Just a few farm fields remained north of the highway...


They have a new crop of houses now...


An overview of Caxton...

In addition to the new houses, some new commercial buildings grew south of the highway.

wickham is getting to be a big city now

looks beautiful

Looking good as always! But I'd use one of the golf course sets on ST in the future though, they'd look much better

It's really neat how the town seems to be hidden in the trees. It has a lot of great detail and looks very well developed.
