Absolutely have done the region justice. The McKenzie Pat Bay Hwy (17) interchange is exceptional. My dad had worked at an ice plant that was serviced by the E&N rail line that used to cross the bridge onto Store St mentioned at 9:47. Really hope the city restores rail service to the existing infrastructure that is still there wasting away while the outer region populations grow. I hope a realistic build on this map might provide some inspiration for the powers that be! If you have any questions about the area I’d be happy to try to answer them! Again, great job!!
Glad to hear I did well. 😅 That's cool that you know about the old rail lines. It would be neat to see some of it restored in some way. If I think of any questions, I'll be sure to ask.
Great video ! What a way to make those unaware that Victoria is such a gem. I was born in Vancouver and have been there many times. It will always hold a very dear place in my heart and soul. To know about this area and it's cosmetic makeup is such a vital thing and I thank you for doing this !
@@dekrue2009 yes. Victoria, etc. are technically custom maps. All the maps I have published so far are based on real world locations using heightmaps. I have a couple of handmade ones in progress too.
Wow, I always wanted to make a custom map of my hometown and show city council. 😂 Love it!!! Names, streets, the bridge... Just wow! Thanks. Watching City Planner Plays doing his Economy2.0 livestream.
You've definitely done it justice! Even down to the street names, it's great. Like I commented on the trailer video you've done a great job on this map. I have one question for you. Do you happen to have a road overlay to match the map? I could try it myself but since you made the map and grabbed the specific location I was wondering if you had one. If not no worries :) And thanks again for this amazing map!
Thanks again for the kind words! There are some overlays in the Google Drive linked below. If you would prefer, I can give instructions on how to get them yourself. Let me know how it goes! drive.google.com/drive/folders/1DzbjvF70UR7qfcix7rGuba9I4RJkIxhy
@bluewhaler I've looked into Sooke as well before. I'd have to scale down the map to fit Langford and Sooke. Or they would have to be 2 different maps. Maybe one day.

Victoria is a gem! Glad you enjoyed it!
@@PoplarPonderosa Do you do custom maps?

Live in the area and was shocked to see this pop up in my feed. Looks like a beautiful recreation. Can’t wait to try it out!
Thanks! I hope you enjoy it!
Damn, I had no idea you could do custom map tiles like that! Great job, makes me wanna do something similar from where I grew up :)
Yes, it's a great feature! In the editor, select "Add Object" then search for "Map Tile". They work a lot like surfaces.

Thanks! That was quite the stream! The economy is a rollercoaster. Haha

Please add langford or create a map for it thanks so much love the map!!
Thanks! I've considered Langford. It's a nice area. It couldn't really fit in this map unfortunately. It's on my list for possible future maps.
@PoplarPonderosa if and when you make it I will love to play it you could even have sooke in it aswell
