I like the green skywalk, it would make traveling by walking much easier. The suspension reminds me of the exo-skeleton mega skyscrapers because it’s the only way to support them. If you build a really tall vertical section you should have a skyway up high connecting the skyscrapers.
wow, your detailing and imagination is absolutely outstanding. I recently showed someone city skylines, I made them watch different youtubers and their styles when it came to this series they were like wow and amazed by what you can do with mods and imagination. they didn't realise how versatile this game is.
I am so loving the green levels! But they do seem to be rather shadeless for a subtropical place. The bridge has such an interesting volume it looks really good! Maybe a couple of paths and a terras on that green would be my whish (if it is public: imagine the view of the space elevator and the skyline! I love how you asdembled those beutiful buildings around it. I imagine a luxury hotel or casino or holo-entertainment center on that curved building on the right
Just stumbled across this videos by accident. I've NEVER seen anyone building a city the way you do with all these costumized procedural objects. You're an artist man! I dig it!
i really love this project. i didn't watch aurelia but i love how you set a giant focus on building walkable environments with a lot of public transport. it really sets you apart from so many creators that just build car centric cities. also the bridge looks absolutely amazing.
I loved Aurelia, and was already convinced you were one of the top C:S creators! Now with Asturis you are actually planning the city from the very beginning, and I cant wait to see how it all will turn out. Just mesmerizing
Amazing video! You're probably not going to read this, but hopefully you do. The green paths look great! But I think that some shade is missing. I think you could try and add trees or some sort of umbrellas for shade, especially in seating areas! (Since it's somewhere tropical). Really looking forward to see more of this city 👍
Or maybe those big tarp cover things that you always see over playgrounds or some outdoor restaurants. You can do cool shapes with them and make them fun colors as well.
26:56 Here the people are walking mostly directly on the platform near the tracks towards the elevator, instead of using the nice green pedestrian infrastructure. Adding another invisible path parallel here might spread them out a bit more.
I really like how Asturis' use of colour and shade is really different to most cities, which are all one monotone colour. It really makes it pop and feel alive.
Such a beautiful build! The ribcage bridge is so inspired and I just love it~ My only little note would be that flipping the lights (green in the bottom and white on the top) might make for more contrast at night, just because the white ribs lose their definition and seem to get lost in the white light. Thanks for all your creativity~
I actually liked the bridge more without the pavement on the bottom level next to the streets. So you can see the river from the street through the "ribcage". And an idea for the top level, you can allow the pedestrians to go from one side of the bridge to the other by making an overpass over the tracks. Maybe combine it with a small viewing platform ~6m above the tracks. If there is enough space between the wires. But I think the bridge could look really cool when it's a bit more crowded. Maybe with some kiosks as well on the green. Great video nontheless, I love watching you build futuristic cities. Asturis is looking good so far. I actually really like the pedestrian spaces with green pavement. But also the verticality and how packed and dense the cits looks. Definitely looking forward to 3.5 years of Asturis hahaha.
This thing is Art!!!, the combination of the shapes and colors and the depth and everything is just so good! also a suggestion: I think doing a gradient type of lighting for the bridge is going to work very good, since some people might find that green color a bit spooky, It won't be that suitable for huge public spaces, instead I think a slightly desaturated pink to cyan or red/blue gradient may work better.
I am really happy to hear that you included viewing galleries in your design. I was listening to the architect of the new bridge they are building in LA and he talked about how one of the biggest lessons that architects have learned over the last 20 years or so about bridges and other large transportation structures is that the traffic level is actually the least important part because it is the first part of the structures to be out of date. Usually a bridge will be over or under built for the types of transportation needs ten years after it is built. The most important part of the bridge is how it interacts and defines the neighborhoods it is in. There are three things that they said are important to bridges in the future, one is of course pedestrian use being featured as much as other types of transportation. (The one thing that they stressed that you don't have are bike paths.) But they noted that the most famous landmarks in the world today (ie the Statue of Liberty, Eifel Tower, London Eye etc) are as important to view from the landmark as the view of it to the relationship between the landmarks and the cities they are in. And third that the space below the road deck is just as if not more important than the space above it because that is the part that actually defines the life of the people who live around it. It should provide more than just a thing that holds up the road, but the structure of the bridge should be an amenady in itself and should be something that brings the community towards it as a merging point not a Division or separation dividing the area in half.
That was an epic project man (as usual, lol). I would suggest doing the bridge lights like a gradient of blues and violets, kinda inspired by east-Asian modern cities if that makes sense. A big green blob is a little flat and desaturating and you already have greens for other things.
Hey man, I really really like the green pavement sections, keep those going! I would also really dig seeing some other coloured pavement in some areas maybe? The colours make such a difference. I also really like the lights and especially the holograms! I’m very excited for this series, keep up the awesome work!
I like the green on the bridge. The green walkways and the focus on parks makes it seem a bit like, say, New York City - sure, it's a gargantuan megatropolis, but it's also still full of visible natural life. The green on the bridge accentuates that and fits in, and the red atop the pillars is both realistic and a good source of contrast to the green. That said, another interesting thing would be if the buildings lining the waterfront were lit up in blues and perhaps sparsely with purple as well, to fit the water's color and make the city that much more colorful. Certainly can't wait to see what's next with the holographic ads and lighting. The open spare areas on the bridge could easily be useful - I think an excellent contrast would be the lower area lit up with red colors and being a sort of safe-from-the-elements (rain at least) food and minor shopping area, where you'd see stands and small buildings for the people walking along, whereas the top section, the more green in both lighting and color, would indeed do well as a lengthy park where people can sit out in the sun or beneath the night and relax, at least until the trains interrupt them - at least it's a place to be. Less ads and less nearby lights, since the only really powerful ones are far above on the main suspension cable.
I think you should try experimenting with some different colors for the pedestrian paths; it could be a really great way to differentiate between different districts of the city or other special areas.
OMG! eyekandy overload! so glad to see this one from the start! that drawing tool from procedural object is awesome! those night shots are a must for sure! A+
I know people already said this, but I just wanna say that I love your focus on transit and pedestrian infrastructure, especially with the elevated plazas (green paths) which I think is a pretty new concept. I think you could do bright brown/orange brick/tile pavements for the skywalks or footbridge or whatever they're called. Though I very much agree with you that the green pavements look nice. You can contrast the green with purple or pink, and it just so happens that such colored plants exist in the tropics, so definitely plant more of those in these green pavement plazas besides the trees and whatnot.
Looks really really good akruas! I see you stand behind your choices, Nice! Although people in the comments can always have a good idea you can implement if you wish to do so, this city is fully your piece of art and you can do what you want with it! Keep it up! :)
Your work has so much inspiration into my cities. That said I dont have the talent to use the structures the way you do (I find the mod complicated) but setting up unique pathways has revolutionized my builds!
It's awesome, you keep outdoing yourself. It's a cool and unique direction to make it lively and bright which I'm here for it. I wanna visit it and fly-ride through that bridge!
Amazing work sir, as always. Really enjoying this series, the city is coming along beautifully and definitely has a different "feel" to Aurelia. I like the green walkways too ;-)
this bridge... you're a madman (in a best possible way ;)) P.S. love all the choices you made for this city, keep doing the stuff you like/love, that's why we love your builds.
This city is going to be an absolut masterpiece, i am loving every bit of it. Your are by far best at building such amazing cities, very glad that i found your chanel. That bridge is wonderful, i am an actual civil engineer and your bridge definitely looks very realistic despite of it unnatural shape. I would love to actually test it, and see it work in real life. Probably with less lighting of course, which in opinion is the only thing you slightly over did :D
I think the colours in this are better than any typical utopia city, and it isn't drifting into the colours just being ads like in cyberpunk and dystopias (at least not yet). its really nice.
I don't have a problem with coloured concrete, and it definitely looks more interesting than grey. This particular green though reminds me of a playground and is a bit lurid, especially as one unbroken block of colour.
WOW! I absolutely LOVE this episode, the bridge is stunning and the small water front with beautiful buildings and the hologram ads are very beautiful. very impressive. I do have cities skilines on my macbook pro, but I don't know how to do all of that... do you use special DLC? download contents? thanks
Your videos are so inspirational! Can you tell me where to find this bridge? I cannot find it in your collections unfortunately. This isn't Oresund bridge right?
One thing I’m noticing is a lack of water features. Pools and fountains mostly. Would be cool to see you make a custom fountain in the middle of a plaza and put water in it or make some rooftop pools for hotels or even some apartment complex pools or outdoor recreational pools too
Also, I don’t think it would fit in this city but it would be cool to see, if you made something similar to the River Walk in San Antonio for a small section of your city with parts of it even necking way down and flowing through buildings like it does at some parts in SA
I love the bridge so much, its so unique with all the buildings integrated into it as well as the train station. can you do an in depth tutorial on how to setup and use procedural objects? I know its like blender basically moving the vertices around but I tried to use this mod before and I felt overwhelmed when I tried to. I have a great deal of experience with blender tho.
One question: how did you put the floating logos/billboard as PO? Every time I try to convert them into PO and I come back into my savegame they become invisible
Right now the only option is to use this version of Additive Shader despite its deprecated status steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2119477759 and use the Load Order Mod (its Load Order Tool) to set it to load before PO.
I would like to have your imagination... incredibly build. Green maybe si not futuristic, but for me yes. People will care more about nature in the future - parks, trees and maybe green sidewalks : ) you use a lot of nice building, but i cant find collection.. maybe in future?...
This bridge is an absolute masterpiece, I wish it had these animated lights that could play in different ways and colors in real time :)
Yea That would be cool
Can u with PO?
I like the green skywalk, it would make traveling by walking much easier. The suspension reminds me of the exo-skeleton mega skyscrapers because it’s the only way to support them. If you build a really tall vertical section you should have a skyway up high connecting the skyscrapers.

Love your builds Akruas! Can't wait to see the next.
I miss your content
Oh my, Strictoaster!
The OG city builder RUclipsr.

I am in love already with how this series is turning out. And we’re only on episode 6.
Amazing video! You're probably not going to read this, but hopefully you do. The green paths look great! But I think that some shade is missing. I think you could try and add trees or some sort of umbrellas for shade, especially in seating areas! (Since it's somewhere tropical). Really looking forward to see more of this city 👍
I read this.
Or maybe those big tarp cover things that you always see over playgrounds or some outdoor restaurants. You can do cool shapes with them and make them fun colors as well.
Not to mention rain cover. This city looks pretty humid.
26:56 Here the people are walking mostly directly on the platform near the tracks towards the elevator, instead of using the nice green pedestrian infrastructure. Adding another invisible path parallel here might spread them out a bit more.
I love how you talk about your cities having opportunities, not challenges. Great build once again, was fun to follow along on this stream!
I really like how Asturis' use of colour and shade is really different to most cities, which are all one monotone colour. It really makes it pop and feel alive.

Great work Akruas, the bridge looks good, really details and futuristic.
( Please more Bridges and Train/Trams🙏)

I love the green pedestrian skywalks.

Yeah! I love the purple and blue idea for the bridge. 💜💙
Incredible stuff as always!
Thank you very much!
any ideas regarding an underground cargo train station? It seems fitting for a city built on so many levels.
Wow! That bridge is amazing! So much personality and perfect for the area.
That bridge made my day! Awesome work!
Personally, I love the green paths. Also, you continue to amaze me with your creativity and how much you push the game.
Man you are an artist in this game, all the different colours and lights make the city so much more alive. Keep it up, love this project.
I think you should try experimenting with some different colors for the pedestrian paths; it could be a really great way to differentiate between different districts of the city or other special areas.
When you made the bridge i thought it was already cool but then you detailed it with those green lights and it looks 100 times better
OMG! eyekandy overload! so glad to see this one from the start! that drawing tool from procedural object is awesome! those night shots are a must for sure! A+
The Bridge is a Prsent for Gods! I really like the Section with all the Trees with the modern Building behind it! Looks so epic
The Green light looks super cool on that bridge
I know people already said this, but I just wanna say that I love your focus on transit and pedestrian infrastructure, especially with the elevated plazas (green paths) which I think is a pretty new concept.

The colour pallets for Asturis are totally on point. Including the green pedestrian areas.
Looks really really good akruas!
I see you stand behind your choices, Nice!
Although people in the comments can always have a good idea you can implement if you wish to do so, this city is fully your piece of art and you can do what you want with it!
Keep it up! :)
Loving the colors and walkways. Great looking bridge.
Your work has so much inspiration into my cities. That said I dont have the talent to use the structures the way you do (I find the mod complicated) but setting up unique pathways has revolutionized my builds!
This part of the city is realy beautiful. I especially like the park next to the rails !
What is the network you use for the coastal wall at 0:43?

That's the nicest bridge i've ever seen anyone make in Cities.

That bridge and the lighting look very nice!
this is looking amazing love the colours great work!
I just wanted to say that your bridge look like a mutated spine. Looks cool. Also you green pathways are cute, its a very beautiful muted green color.
this is insane and incredible 😳love the colours!
This city is going to be an absolut masterpiece, i am loving every bit of it. Your are by far best at building such amazing cities, very glad that i found your chanel.

Every single video you make is worth a whole week of waiting. Cant wait for next week 🙃
Beautifull ! This area is a masterpiece.
keep the paths! they're epic, also this is the coolest bridge ive ever seen
Looks so good! Love the green surfaces:)
Having a custom light show 🌃 at the bridge would be awesome! Some creators have done it before! You should definitely do it aswell! 🙏❤️
Such a genuis build! Well done
Man this looks insane already.. really want your bridge on the workshop!
I love this content. You are an artist my friend
I think the colours in this are better than any typical utopia city, and it isn't drifting into the colours just being ads like in cyberpunk and dystopias (at least not yet). its really nice.
Dude, keep going what you do, that's realy awesome!!! I'm really fond of your work :)
Great work! Looks spectacular at night!
That bridge looks amazing
great video, very nice build. I think you should use more trees and greenspaces, just a recommendation
I would love to see that bridge in real life 😃
I'm a fan of pretty much every style choice you've made sofar and am eager to see more.
Unbelievable for me that this piece of art is still Cities Skyline - the same game I play.
Keep up with the green color !! Your doing such an awesome work on this map !! (Those before too) Asturis look beautiful with each episode !
I like the green color but maybe different colors for different elevation levels would also look interesting?
There are many ways to do it, I chose this one.
you are so talented its unbeliveable
honestly you're the best city skylines player
I don't have a problem with coloured concrete, and it definitely looks more interesting than grey. This particular green though reminds me of a playground and is a bit lurid, especially as one unbroken block of colour.

I do have cities skilines on my macbook pro, but I don't know how to do all of that... do you use special DLC? download contents? thanks
Yes, I use ton of user-made stuff downloaded from the Steam's Workshop.
I really like the green color for the pedestrian areas. Dunno why many people dislike it.
it'd be really cool to incorporate some green brutalist architecture into this build like the acapulco princess hotel
Your videos are so inspirational!

I also like that green surfaces. Idk where i've been seen them.
if you read this, I just wanna say, thanks for make my day better.
That train station is so beautiful. I wish I could do this in CS.
I really like the Color !
I love the bridge so much, its so unique with all the buildings integrated into it as well as the train station. can you do an in depth tutorial on how to setup and use procedural objects?

Honestly i like the green color, but I wish thoses skyways had more things going on (food trucks, trees, parks...)
It is sooo Cool

Another cyperpunk sign adding to the arasaka one earlier
Yeah, I see how this is going to easily surpass Aurelia. So fuckin COOL
I would like to have your imagination... incredibly build. Green maybe si not futuristic, but for me yes. People will care more about nature in the future - parks, trees and maybe green sidewalks : )

Grassy tram tracks tho >>>>>
+1 for all the extra colours
This is such a creative piece that it would be a marvel of modern structural engineering. Can you share your inspiration?
Wow. Incredibile build e creatività. 👏👏👏👏
nice vid
How did you make the roads black?
CSUR Loader mod allows global road color change, or Repaint or Network skins for individual
Just stunning :)
Is there a reason to why the platforms in the central hub are way longer than the new station?
This is a smaller station.
👍
