It was then, to my utter horror, that I released my dream is yet to be realised.

In an attempt to give some sort of interest to the cityscape, I had included split level areas. But driving up and down them just lead to strange and unpleasing camera angles with clipping through the tightly packed buildings.

Also, the same old bugbear of lots not loading fast enough as you drive past, blurring the city feel I wanted to achieve. I think I'm going to have to totally restructure along the lines of using mainly 60x60 lots to force the image load in time before the sim has completely travelled past in their vehicle.

So the men in hard hats have called a halt to the building work. Gutted after all the many days I put into it. But the town council thinks it'll be ultimately more productive to level everything and start again.

I shall post again when I have something better :D

Oh, no! And I who have fallen in love with this at third sight. First I was like; nah, not liking it, and at second sight; nah, looks nice enough, but still not my kind of world. And now, looking at you screens again, SOOOOO totally wanted to start playing Sims again after a few months break. Just because of this genius little gem.

So, please please please finnish it. I understand the issues you have described, but I still hope this is just a bump in the road and that you stick to the project!!! And also, I would love playing it as it is now (if what you said: "I got a lot further down the line with this build and decided to finally run it as a live version." means that you have a playable version)

Anyhow, please keep up the gooood work. I am totally in love :thumbup:
