Great video...i just wish the streets didn't have to be so wide. Go to most neighborhoods in France, Italy, etc, and the streets are sooo much more narrow and compact than even this, which is a huge part of what makes those places so beautiful. And what about places like Santorini? Or the Blue City in Morocco? We should be able to essentially make outdoor hallways to fill our neighborhoods.

[@VideosVonDennis]

Right. The game should have been called American Skylines. Street sizes are just hilarious and there is no way you can design or re-create an European city with. Don't let me even get started talking about scales of other assets... it's completely fucked up.

[@petjuh1985]

Dennis X just use the pedestrian streets and move it mod to make the streets a lot narrower.

[@VideosVonDennis]

@@petjuh1985 I tried everything but gave up on the game. The relations of sizes in this game are so fucked up that it's hard to keep using the game. After 180 hours with it, I am just done. The base game is such a mess, it was only enjoyable with mods right from the beginning but still, the metric or relations in the game can't even be fixed with mods. So, I'm waiting another 10 years for a better city simulator. This is not my game.

[@petjuh1985]

I would love to see a guide on how to build an Asian city like Tokyo, Hong Kong or Singapore

[@KerbalHub]

Just look at JP city tutorials (they're even in Japanese!)

[@andersschulze768]

Usually (atleast in Germany) the train station is right next to the old city and not sperated even a little bit, as that growth came from industrialization and that train station being there. Very good tutorial/guide Edit: some larger cities also have renaissance era expansion around the old city and then another layer of former walls from a 16/1700s star fort next to which you can place the train station and around it further expansion

I really wanna thank CO and all mod/asset creators for everything ❤️ makes cities skylines so much more dynamic and fun!

[@GustafMedF]

Ay, it's my boy Titan!

[@FrankGranados]

Thanks for this tutorial, it is quite useful, in Mexico there are many cities, particularly the most historic, with similar distributions, in some cases with Spanish and French influences, with a quite varied architecture,

[@nutyyyy]

Yes it really depends on the age, I've been to Mexico and the older colonial towns and cities have this vibe, however the Spanish themselves were innovators of grid structures for street layout and that is seen in older Latin American cities.

[@Czardus]

Great tutorial! Well done Titan.

Thank you Titan! I started my first European city last year and I hope to get it developed sometime around this Christmas? Much more work than an American city but so worth it.

[@thedon6636]

I love these little how to videos, I love the game but have trouble creating connections with the highways. A video on how to start your city would be so appreciated! Thx for the awesome game!

[@mver191]

Amsterdam started out as a small core, then they dug a canal around the city, expanded, and build the next canal around it etc. They needed the canals so the boats could reach the warehouses.

[@Serentropic]

Nice one :D I appreciate this as an untraveled American. I can pick up some things from google maps, but it really helps to have to have some things pointed out, and the reasoning behind them. I don't think it would have occurred to me, for example, that a European train station would be built on a secondary industrialized district.

[@nutyyyy]

Even for Europeans it's useful to learn about the principles behind the layout of different parts of cities. As shown in the video, when making an old town it can be useful to mark out important areas such as marketplaces, squares and churches first, then link those streets up with main roads and fill in the gaps. There is a lot more variety of road layouts in European cities as they change a lot throughout history. Some outer areas of the city might be more familiar to Americans, the main difference is that usually large highways dont enter very far into the city itself and tend to encircle it.

[@herpsenderpsen]

Love these videos from you guys, and i hope to see some of the "essential" mods getting implemented into the vanilla game one day!

[@seraphina985]

If the small towns that have gotten swallowed up in the urban sprawl have a railway station you will tend to find a lot of 19th century residential buildings the newly available transportation allowed people to commute to work especially more middle class residents that could afford the premium of paying the train fares in order to escape the smog of the industrial revolution in the heart of the city.

[@lucasithegreat2711]

Super Video Titan!

[@GeographyWorld]

Please add more architecture types to the console edition of the games to make more realistic European cities etc.

[@emeliehedstrom7770]

As a Swede who lives in Stockholm these kinds of cities just have my heart in its clutches. They are so beautiful and the architecture is magnificent. I absolutely hate the grids and shit like that they have in America.

[@Horus4302]

Nice video! Wanted to make some historical European style inner city with a more modern, American style city surrounding it.

[@nutyyyy]

That is essentially what larger European cities are, but with much less of a planned out grid structure. Its more like series of partial grids based on the main roads leading to the highways or other cities.

[@noahrenault5837]

Fulxtrance come back when ?

[@SaudiHaramco]

Don't forget to include tenement buildings randomly wherever a bomb hit during WWII as well as modern architecture in inner city areas that were previoulsy industrial or empty. Plus of course narrow one-way roads.

[@nutyyyy]

Exactly, the context is very important. If it's a German city or really any city that was affected by the world wars it's good mix up the ages of buildings in the core even more. Whereas some cities were relatively untouched. Other events can include fires or other destruction of buildings which might warrant the inclusion of newer structures.

[@Secretlyalittleworm]

this is so helpful!

[@petersantos6395]

The ideas of that buildings have to be squares and everything is based on roads and cars is very non-European

[@nutyyyy]

It depends, a lot of urban cores are more structured than people think, they are just structured for walking as that was the only real mode of transportation for most people historically. However for larger cities the actual old town only represents a very small section of the urban development and many towns can be incorporated into the metropolitan area. So dotting your main roads with the remnants of historic town centres is a good idea.

[@weirdbrick4212]

[@Nhatanh0475]

This is only beautifull until you open the traffic menu.

[@nutyyyy]

Very true, however in most instances people aren't commuting through the old town and traffic typically doesn't pass through a city to get to another as the highways bypass the city entirely.

[@VideosVonDennis]

Videos like this one give me severe OCD.... overlapping texture here, buildings shoved into others there and so on.... might make a realistic impression if you're flying over the city, but fuck does it look shitty when zoomed in. The game is just not designed to create realistic looking cities. The scale of objects is funky, the street assets are designed for American cities but not for European ones. The game would have needed the name American Skylines, not Cities Skylines. I gave it a ton of tries, but you simply can not recreate European cities with it unless you don't care about the things I said first, oberlapping textures and buildings that are shoved into each other.

[@aarongodinez9022]

You can use the distort function of the procedural objects mod to prevent the buildings from overlapping
