Big Residential Block - Cities: Skylines - Asturis 9

[@shadowdragonv8256]

you have talked about shades in the city how about some kind of futuristic see trough glass or hologram ones. absolutely loving this series its probably the best cities skylines series ever.

[@ashkatschm4057]

I agree

[@squawkthepenguin9492]

see through glass would be crazy

[@laniakea6588]

Im so glad you're doing stuff with lighting in this City. Gives it so much more character.

[@jezusbloodie]

I so love how the cohesive waterfront looks now, especially the colours! Only constructive critisim: maybe some non functional (sand) paths on that orivate park along the buildings and to the laying-seating-bench-thingies and parasols just to give it that entire flat surface a bit of texture Cant wait to see the walkways filled, you've been hyping it up so much and that i can see the larger shapes. The green was a really good idea

[@jaspboynl8094]

As someone in a wheelchair, I still understand your point about elevators. I like to just imagine them being inside of the buildings. I really only would like to see elevators at train and tram stations, for the rest of the city I don't really care.

[@cruelaz]

ramps could also look cool instead of elevators

[@jan-lukas]

@@cruelaz but would need to be long enough to actually support wheelchair users

[@Konrad-z9w]

@@jan-lukas I would hope in the future of Asturis wheelchairs are all powered and have no problems with slopes. Trains are flying already.

[@theorixlux]

I love this; the waterfront buildings between the two bridges are placed in a way that suggests there was an old coastline that was filled in to make that artificial coast. Happy little accident with happy little trees :)

[@molybdane7240]

Still very impressed with what I see and eager to see more. Nitpick: at 24:27 center right-up you can see pops clipping through that white 'band' covering the green road.

[@Akruas]

That's intentional.

[@ummmhi9385]

Beautiful city so far! As expected from my favourite city builder!!!

[@BlazingImp77151]

This episode was a brilliant filler between those 2 completed riverside/waterfront blocks. The new buildings look amazing, and it goes great along the shoreline and stuff. The lighting is also really great, although it continues the kinda dark against the waterfront/riverside on this side of the first bridge.

[@Illkiron]

I love the green pedestrian infrastructure. Absolutely love it.

[@Garis53]

The city is growing nicely. Does anyone know what is the name of those colorful buildings seen at 15:27? They look absolutely amazing!

[@Milo-um1bo]

It's called "Office building 002" by Valex on steam workshop.

[@Detrabot]

Go to contemporary Russian buildings collection for more stuff like that

[@KyNYC212]

I live in NYC. I LOVE my city but would LOVE to have you re-design many areas with your unique artistry!!

[@ai97Nord]

Another masterpiece from Akruas

[@matthewhook3375]

City is looking fantastic; the continuity along the waterfront is spectacular!

[@cruelaz]

"It turned out looking alright." ALRIGHT? dont downtalk your talent mate!

[@tegendraads1912]

This is fantastic city building. I love your work, really enjoy watching it! And it makes me realize I'm such a noob at this game... 😮‍💨

[@Nick-yi4tr]

that residential block looks really cool, amazing job, akruas!

[@danbstep]

The night shots are just awesome

[@kerboy5397]

thanks, this is just what i need to make some downtown developments in my city

[@pokkai2710]

Can't wait for the next episode, as always

[@46JCK]

It's insane what is capable in this game. How far people have come with it.

[@ranger6609]

I wish I could make cities like this, truly impressive.

Not gona lie i thought this an irl thumbnail by how amazing it looked bro lmao looks so realistic

[@Hanitcal69]

You really are an artist bro

[@NachosMachos]

this is truly looking amazing

[@MartelSays]

I've been watching these out of order, so awesome! Greetings from California

[@joaomagalhaes2755]

It looks really cool !

[@armandchill69]

The tropical setting seem rife for some hotel stuff and visible swimming pools.

[@oliverkleinig2143]

Have you considered having ramps (just got the idea when the path widened, could be ideal?)

[@MrCalls1]

Sunbed is what we call the chairs you lay down on at the beach - we also used the same term for the fake tanning places

[@georgeowen2553]

Sunlounger in other Anglophone places.

[@idk_illlil5848]

You should have a shopping district and the path that connects all the shops you should do one of those flying trains that spans between the buildings and the connections are to the buildings I think that would look pretty cool

[@purplebeamcz]

AMAZING I LOVE IT

[@Dragonheng]

It's a shame that vanilla Cities skylines don't inherently support this type of high residential and commercial density. You always need a lot of elements from the Steam workshop and modifications to build something like this.

[@qwirtun309]

I love this city!🌆

[@otsolattu]

After Aurelia I thought futuristic cities couldn't get any better...

[@PauxloE]

Maybe you should give your places names, so you can refer to them by name, instead of "the train station near the suspension bridge". (And occasionally publish a map with updated names, maybe just in a community post.)

[@baobao_uwu]

how can you place the building where already have a building there, may I know which mod is it? It really make to building look more realistic. Your work are really awesome!

[@vmaaa69]

For me Asturis is Based on Cyberpunk2077 because of the Modern infrastructure. i love the look of this city

[@citiesinsane8519]

Like that artistic PO-work - great.....

[@globalo8619]

Love the Series

[@jack9231]

When you place growable commercial buildings with find it, do you run into the issue when it dissapears almost right after its built? Mine vanishes with a money icon above it. I cannot find the meaning for this icon.

[@Akruas]

Use this steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2016920607 and read this github.com/algernon-A/Ploppable-RICO-Revisited/wiki/What-Ploppable-RICO-Revisited-does

[@PauxloE]

So we need some mod which disallows bicycles on paths over a certain inclination (i.e. stairs). Maybe the riders could carry their bike op and down (or use alternative paths instead). (Same for strollers and wheelchair users, though those should always use the elevators. Or have nearby other people help them.) Not sure whether this is actually possible, but would be nice.

[@Detrabot]

What are the roads with no marking that you use? my node controller marking option isn’t appearing and I want an alternative

[@Akruas]

Mostly this steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1253042356 and one of these steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1926704313

[@narzgel_hoi4]

Yeay!

[@iamunpossible]

how are you changing heights of the lights with move it? I am unable to find any mods that have this ability and converting to PO removes the light bulb

[@Akruas]

You probably can't move any props higher with Move it, you need Prop Anarchy mod and check the prop snapping function in settings (maybe called differently, not sure) steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2862882210

[@iamunpossible]

Thank you, I did not realise i needed to turn on prop snapping, your cities are amazing and you have taught me lots and inspired me greatly.

[@spectex304]

Asturis people are must be slim and health cuz akruas want them to walk

[@Detrabot]

They’re all gigachads because of the city planner

[@IsThatNaomiOmi]

how to i make my roads look so clean like yours? not the layout but the look of them, the simple black and white

[@emginie.7888]

how have you done that people do not complain about low land value? Are there some mods? I was also wondering what mod are you using to change roads color.

[@Akruas]

You should do a city at a smaller scale vertically.

[@nizzyfulton4338]

What are all the mods you use?

[@Akruas]

Check video description.

[@rubnicf2203]

Amazing👏

[@nikanarghandehpour]

Surely there’s a mod that lets you ban bikes on certain paths. Like no bikes on sidewalks or something

[@Drejos]

What's the name of that asset used as quay in waterfront?

[@Akruas]

[@Triliton]

Love it!

[@shanghainese7198]

Does anyone know the mods he uses? Like the mod he uses to merge two buildings to one

[@Akruas]

It's in the video description. Moving buildings how you want is the Move It mod.

[@vadicus-tcp]

Do Procedural Objects use the same computer system resources as the regular assets? Is there any performance drop from using thousands of them like Akruas uses? Lol. He's so good at using that mod. I know POs don't use LODs so that can affect performance I guess.

[@Akruas]

yes lack of LOD is a big deal, lots of POs also increase loading times, lots of POs in one place does drop some FPS even up close, but it's hard to generalize, I haven't done any proper testing for that

[@vadicus-tcp]

@@Akruas Thanks Akruas. Amazing work also. I'm guessing a high end CPU for the simulation of the game but a good GPU for the rendering of the POs is a benefit. Cinematics always look amazing though. You are the number one Skylines builder. You inspire my cities as well. Be safe.

[@Akruas]

@@vadicus-tcp The game itself is the bottleneck. In my experience switching from 960 to 1060 GPU didn't do anything in 1080p, but it helped with maintaining the FPS for increased resolution. We can see that with other builders who use high end 30 series, that the FPS is still terrible, but they can at least maintain it for much higher resolutions and "dynamic resolution" upscales. The hard truth is that FPS is dictated by the number of objects and their complexity, with minimal impact from hardware. So always pay attention to those tris counts and especially texture sizes of objects. Don't place thousands of small details with 4k textures etc. I've read that apparently the engine also suffers from placing large amount of individual objects, as opposed to a single object with otherwise similar complexity. Better CPU helps with simulation speed, yes, but also only to a certain point.

[@vadicus-tcp]

@@Akruas Right you are. Sadly the engine is dated and not optimized very well. That being said, I'm sure we your fans are all excited to see what you come up with in Skylines 2!! Haha, being hopeful of course but I'm sure Skylines 2 will come eventually.

[@lc5957]

atleast crime will be hard to do unnoticed due to how illuminated the whole place is :)

[@EmiirZComps]

Perhaps outline the buildings with curbs 4 some nicer transition between the grass and the residential building.

[@dezzzka3825]

How about more sudden tunnel entrances in the middle of the city? Taking inspiration from the Musks’ Boring Company. It would add some more “future” aspect. As it looks a bit optimistic that this road system can support such a residential overload… Just a suggestion, amazing content!

[@likematters5568]

:D!!

[@berlinciaga]

I really like the build but i feel like the uniform green walkways everywhere kinda ruin the look. Its too smooth and as walkways they wouldnt keep their green color for very long. also every construction company using the same flooring for walkways in their projects is pretty unlikely. the architecture of the buildings is very different as well so putting the same ground everywhere takes away from the uniqueness of a building

[@mirkogerritzen3572]

I disagree too, for me it fits very well it has a unique style and the uses of it are amazing, nothing wrong here :)

[@spartan117zm]

I like to imagine it as some kind of rubberized material that is better for walking on than ordinary concrete (like those spongy mats sometimes found around playgrounds or pools), and because of that, it would be relatively easy for it to maintain its color, since the color would be a dye on the material itself as opposed to a paint applied after it was built.
