Plaza is Spanish (derived from Greek), also means square or gathering place, the English usage (which is actually from Latin) for a circle like this is circus such as Piccadilly Circus or Oxford Circus in London. So this place could be Asturis Circus! I absolutely love your builds! I wish they came out daily.
My friend, this is your city. This is your artistic masterpiece. You are the one that devotes hours of your time marveling at the creative choices between colors and the uniqueness of the the structures. What you are building is not only beautiful but it's a reflection of who you are as an individual. Those people in your comment section that seem to criticize your every decision, whether it's the green pedestrian roads or the accuracy of your tropical paradise, simply have no right to do so. This is your baby. I have much respect for every decision you have made and I will NEVER tell you how to raise your child! Much love!
I remain very eager to see more of this. Your experience in building Aurelia is really paying off. As for providing shelter or shade (across public transport area's), maybe you could use some coloured glass, slightly purple or lilac, representing glass that absorbs some but not all of the Sun's radiation. If they can build space elevators, that should be doable.
In big tropic cities like Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok, Jakarta, etc. Shaded walkways are very important. They'll either has pedestrian tunnels or Shaded skywalks all over the city, especially within the vicinity of major public transportation stations.
Hey! Quick tip: you can hit the HOME key to move any pedestrian paths' height to ground level instantly, that way you don't have to press the RePag key all the time ;)
I love the green spaces on the roofs. and the teal of the pedestrian areas really pops amongst the whites and blacks and greys. The ads also help with the colours too. The lights are brilliant, I love how colourful it gets/stays at night. its really pretty. I love the idea of having pedestrians above all the cars (though I hope for breathing sake they are all electric, lol). The trams and trains going everywhere is nice because public transport feels better than everyone driving around on the roads and stuff. I cant wait to see the rest of the central areas, and see how the suburbs and industrial areas look like.
Literally the only video I’ve found explaining and using accent lighting on buildings. I think it’s so essential for the skyline at night. Not just the building indoor lights on every other floor. Thank you
Hey! I'm from near that circle in New York, it's called Columbus Circle and it's a roundabout (one of 3 in Manhattan, I believe). The Time Warner building has a huge mall on the first few floors, even going subterranean, and the rest is office. There's also a Subway station underneath, which has lots of shops and good connections. It's cool to see what a future iteration of this plaza could look like!
Regarding realistic walking patterns, consider the shortest possible route between corners. When you were complaining about the righthand side of the screen around 25:10, I definitely want to see people going from the bridge in the middle to the large doorway in the building at the top, and then others cutting from the lower-right to the upper-left tram stop area.
Really loving the series so far. The lighting is fantastic. I like the green pedestrian paths, but I really do think they should be different colors on different levels, to sort of break up and distinguish the area. LIke, maybe leave the main level green, and have the second level be orange or something. But it still looks pretty cool either way.
Would be sick to see some kind of old style billboards in an older part of town, or maybe just at lower levels since new holographic signs would be too expensive for the lack of visibility?? Could also bring some variation and contrast to the plaza! I also think it would be cool to some kind of glass roofs above the pathways (as someone else suggested), as trees at such an elevation would be really hard to maintain, but maybe that's just a bit too much of "realism". Anyways love the series!
You should do more of these grass/garden rooftops on buildings like in 15:52, especially on the large-but-not-too-tall buildings. This is also a good opportunity to plant violet or purple plants on them as well, which is good for contrasting colors. On some of these buildings, you just placed ploppable asphalts with textures. Perhaps you could add more invisible paths coming in and out of buildings, I think someone of the larger ones didn't have enough. Like here in 16:26, you could have at least two entrances on each towers. In some parts you could make the wide invisible paths fork into several narrow ones, each coming to separate entrance doors leading to the same building like you have at 20:46 and 20:58. Have the paths split up within the buildings more often as well like you did in 16:52. (Obviously the buildings have lots of different entry points on the ground floors) And a little tip: when building these green plazas/walkways, you can avoid clipping by placing the detailing first (planters, benches, etc.) before placing the invisible paths. It will be more interesting when the paths get split up by planters and maybe vendors/kiosks too.
I have a pretty good idea in my opinion, change the green pedestrian surface into glass(if possible) so people walking on it can look down at the circle square
This looks absolutely fantastic you are so talented! you should definitely dive into more lore for the city too like how old is the city, who founded it, the history of the city, how do the people dress and talk and also where it is located its policies so much stuff you can explore with it. Keep doing what your doing im definitely subscribing!
You should definitely add planters with trees and bushes so there’s shade for pedestrians and to hide just wide the green parts, plus it can make artificial paths.
Nice work if the lights and details. That Night cinematics look´s like Blade Runner. Regards the Tram stops, if think could be interesting you make some sheds that are glass or translucid way.
I think you should put some more planters to add more life and tropical feel to it. Also maybe not there but it would be cool to see some market stalls.
Perhaps it's just me, but I don't feel the lush tropical jungle vibe from your vegetation. I know a more detailed vegetation would hurt the fps, but perhaps sprinkles of low poly bushes or tree clusters can help with adding more "volume"? JAQREL's Katak Town series and JeremyThunder's Scylla Republic may be useful for reference, btw.
“All these logos and such are entirely meaningless.” He says this as he places the logo for the hall of justice, I see the judges are on patrol in this ideal city.
I think those night shots would look even better with the white street lights a bit dimmer to make the holograms stand out more, but idk if it’s possible to toggle those kind of things.
Lol, all this stuff in one episode only. I would need one month to make something similar. And it would be' worse lol. You manage to improve even further your skills, incredible.
I think that it is necessary to put small planters on green squares, in places where people do not go. The absence of trees in such places creates a lot of solar radiation, creates a feeling of stuffiness. In real life, plants are placed on every pedestrian path between skyscrapers. It seems to me that the city looks more futuristic with plants at high levels
Love it! Is there any way to group lights together, so that when they flicker on in sets, each building activates in a similar set? Seeing each spotlight turn on at a random point is a bit off-putting, though it isn't going to ruin the city or anything.
Hey iam from Germany ,15 years old and love your work. Maybe you could work more with terrain and nature.That would change a lot. The theme of this city would also match with nature and terrain editing. Editing: Of course it would be harder for you but you are the beste cities skyline player I’ve ever watched. I can’t imagine it would be any problem for you. The city would also have so much other chances. Maybe you would also like to built some old historic buildings. History of a city is the most important thing for me.
Incredible project. Not sure about the green paths, though. They just look a bit flat. I don't know if that's because of the color or if they just need wear to look more dynamic and realistic.
Can you try and change the lower platforms to a darker green since it may add a little more depth. Everything is looking great and I can't wait for the ride videos ❤❤❤
@@Akruas wow! I didn’t know you’d reply that promptly. Thanks so much. Your work is quite inspiring. Just one more thing please, there’s this turquoise-colour surface you use often. Can you share the link to get it from steam workshop? 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
i love this series, but i dont understand something as i dont play the game. whats wrong with using procedural objects a lot? also maybe in some places you could make those green raised sidewalks different colors for different areas / purposes! lets you play with different visual color combinations.
26:20 citizens: *are dying of severe overheating in 50 degrees celsius heat and the proteins in their bodies coagulate uncontrolably* the mayor: "yeah, shelters would provide some relief but i like the aesthetics" /s great video though, i love the night shots a lot

this looks amazing but now that youre doing so much lights, the space elevator really needs a nighttime overhall xd
Yes, it does.

Designing and building the whole city from scratch is one thing and explaining all of it in detail is a whole other thing ! Trully awesome !!

and trees, or else this city is going to be a walkable dubaï
That's a great idea! Tho in my experience glass seems to block all sunlight, which may look weird
Love this idea

Really enjoy the verticality of it all.
Will try it my cities too
Food stalls. These open areas need food stalls.
And umbrella stands, and news stands, and vending machines, and stuff like that.
You really are an artist. You create such incredible places with this game
Maaan. This guy right here is pure artist with architect abilities. They should hire him to make for us lot of content. Do what you do so cratively :)

Looks so cyberpunky, compared to Aurelia
You could use the hologramd as some futuristic see-through UV and rain cover maybe at some places lol
this is looking more and more like a versioon of blade runner but way less run down love it
yeah I was thinking of like Akira and Blade Runner
Wow more than 60.000 subs now! Congrats, fully deserved! 😊
Loving Asturis! I think adding trees to the green pathways may solve the no shade issue, and it will still be possible to see pedestrians
that sweeping night shot through the buildings looks insane already !
I have a pretty good idea in my opinion, change the green pedestrian surface into glass(if possible) so people walking on it can look down at the circle square
Could be bad news for anyone wearing a dress/skirt!
This looks absolutely fantastic you are so talented! you should definitely dive into more lore for the city too like how old is the city, who founded it, the history of the city, how do the people dress and talk and also where it is located its policies so much stuff you can explore with it.

Nightime shots look fantastic :)
Man this is a beast of city at this scale! ;-)
i love your work, honestly this is so amazing!! thank you for your time put into those videos they always bring a smile to my face
I see Asturies will be a city of light
And this is so cool 😎😎😎
Akruas, the master detailer that likes to see his citizens suffer heat stroke :D
Looks great, you and BlackFox really are in your own league.
I've never seen anyone build in cities skylines like this before. It's amazing.
You should definitely add planters with trees and bushes so there’s shade for pedestrians and to hide just wide the green parts, plus it can make artificial paths.
Amazing as always.
I wonder if you can actually make pedestrian paths wider via PO or that road mod so people spread out more?
No, it doesn't work like that.
I was on the skeptical side when you started the green foot paths, but the night shots quelled my doubt.
Nice work if the lights and details. That Night cinematics look´s like Blade Runner. Regards the Tram stops, if think could be interesting you make some sheds that are glass or translucid way.
Very creative project and these lights and neons are just amazing!
City look awesome during Nightime.
One thing that could be cool is like a government plaza with a big Parliament building
I loooooove the way youre approaching colours
I think you should put some more planters to add more life and tropical feel to it. Also maybe not there but it would be cool to see some market stalls.
Are any of these assets you create available in the workshop? I only found the used mods. Awesome work nonetheless.
Perhaps it's just me, but I don't feel the lush tropical jungle vibe from your vegetation. I know a more detailed vegetation would hurt the fps, but perhaps sprinkles of low poly bushes or tree clusters can help with adding more "volume"?

Looks fantastic! Would love to visit there at night!
I think you can add a Aircraft Warning Lights. It's going to be more realistic and there will be more lights at night xD
It would be cool to have some ligths in the ground like some cities do in their shopping streets.
"Honey wake up, Akruas posted"
“All these logos and such are entirely meaningless.”

you could use some glass shelters on tram stops. might look really cool, modern, and would still give you that view
I think those night shots would look even better with the white street lights a bit dimmer to make the holograms stand out more, but idk if it’s possible to toggle those kind of things.
I think you should name this plaza part of the city "The Pearl" or "Pearl Place" because of the circular geometry. cool name for a cool place :D
absolutely gorgeous

You should do some colour-coded districts like in Mirror's Edge, each with its distinct feature or building style. Keep up the good work!
To make the plaza look more alive you could add some more plant life on the paths and on the streets
Love it! Is there any way to group lights together, so that when they flicker on in sets, each building activates in a similar set? Seeing each spotlight turn on at a random point is a bit off-putting, though it isn't going to ruin the city or anything.
This episod until now still the best episod in cs history
Great video, I love your stuff! Can you tell me the name of the invisible LRT network that you used for the elevated station above the plaza? Thanks!
I explained that in #3, it's my modification of normal LRT
