Latest news from Riverside

The town is happy to see more people moving in and establish cozy little family compounds.



Two new WT-stations had to be established along the shore.





The new Riverside-College welcomes its students, offering rooms in nearby dorms and boardinghouses. Those two stubborn farmers right in front of the college building will soon get an offer they can't refuse ...



After all this hard work the major loves to relax in his new home on a cliff overlooking the river.

Does my hear t good to see others using my stuff :)

BTW, I am sure you guessed, but you can use the extender pieces as exit pieces, if you don't want the cement slope.

    Very nice, I like the central hill with the docks off to the side that is definately an interesting way to use em'.... It is great to see others use this set, as they seem to come up with ideas that I haven't even thought of yet. Then again I still am working on making my own lots so I unfortunately can't use the new stuff until I am finished with the majority of the production.

   In this case I would have to say I would need another computer like a few others are doing, so I can play the game on one and mess with making lots on the other... Great work.... Like the implimentation.

oh sure, but I love slopeconforming pieces, specially whén they fit in really snug ;-) And I like the slanted concrete slab, it really makes it look more finished, and it makes for a good transition to any kind of walls... But I'm sure, both ways will be used, specially once the groundlevel pieces come in, then we can just extend on high ground (instead of making that river-transition.

One idea I had was to maybe make a piece with a break in the fence, with a stair or elevatorshaft or pedestrian on/off ramp attached, ie. for a serviceteam ... as of now they would always have to move in from one of the ARS-starting/ending points.
Just as eyecandy :-))

I saw the photo - do you have more than that one? I'd like to see how the towers and posts below are spaced, better: how many 'no-pylon'-pieces one could safely build between supports in reality...

Did I mention yet - nice set! Thank you :-)

That's why I put both types in :)

I've already got pieces with stairs in the works (as well as many, many, many more pieces). I like the idea of an elevator!

I was playing around with it, and think it looks to long to have more than 3 or 4 pieces with out a support base. What I have been doing is placing a tower, then 2 sides, then a support,  2 sides, a support, 2 sides, and then another tower. They look very good that way.

Well, here's my ARS cheatsheet, so you can see what kind of configurations those crazy majors might come up with...

Very, very nice. The Romans would be proud.... if not jealous... and therefore compelled to overrun and enslave you.


* The Romans are not aware that their patent on elevated water expired over 1600 years ago. Silly Romans.

That is an amazing display of plumbing, I am sure that it will galvanize people into action to connect their water pipes to it, by crawling underneath their houses and tapping into the water supply for general household bathing purposes.   Heck they may even install bathrooms inside their houses.

*well at least I am sure that is what the cleaniness concious Romans would have done.

Harborville modernized

While waiting for the ARS-Engineers to deliver the latest modules, the Mayor decided to entice new manufacturers and commercial services with a new harbor and more ... This part of the region lies south of Riverside and southeast of Farmington.

Southern part


Northern part


A clean HiTech-Park developed along with modern commercial services


The new Media Center


Old dilapidated buildings are torn down


The row of old buildings (top) will be renovated and turned into tourist attractions


Housing projects along the montain's flank


Some different views of the harbor






To be continued...
