On Festival Island, we could place the ice cream or food truck plazas inside of an abandoned warehouse prop from the workshop

Compatibility report mod is a life saver. It'll give you a report stating which of your mods are broken, which are out of date and what they are exceeded by, if multiple of your mods are doing the same thing, and if you are missing dependant mods. Definitely get it if you haven't already.

The high school that's a little bit over the pedestrian road looks AMAZING.

38:28 I think the library should face the beach since that street is the main promenade and the library has car parking at the front. And pedestrians coming from the pedestrian area could always just use the back entrance. :)

I LOVE the updated area with the library, zoo, and Bird & Bee Haven. I definitely agree that those parks need to be replaced with something; perhaps one of the new things that will be unlocked soon?

one of your mods is breaking the intersections of pedestrian roads they are not always blank pavement they have nice plaza paterns

Do I play cities Skylines? nope... Have I watched this entire series? yep :)

hey james, I've got a couple of mod suggestions: - ron: the network replacer mod - yet another toolbar: resizing, scaling, transparent-izing, etc. - better education toolbar: separates primary and high school and library etc into their own tabs. - better road toolbar: 1u, 2u, 2u 2+lanes, industrial, bus roads etc in separate tabs. - better health toolbar: medical, death, etc in separate tabs. - rotterdam: removes the weird shadow glitch that roads get when they're too cliff-y on one side. I remember it happening a few times in this city. ps: you could change the "nubbin" to a road with no median, then it could at least be a *neat* nubbin. pps: yes to minibuses, please.

Oh this is what I like to see when I just get home from work!! 😀

Just wanted to thank you for this content, James. I've been in the hospital getting treatments for a little over a month and this series has really helped with passing the time and bringing me joy.

Watching the changes to the downtown im wondering wether it wouldnt be better to start those built up blocks from scratch to accomodate the pedestrian pathing 👀

I would love to see the 'main' city park redone! Like a more natural look with gravel paths to contrast the new plazas!

Can’t wait to see future progression!! Alsoo In the future u should make a farmy town! Outside the city

honestly that nub area you could keep it as asphalt and just say it's a rideshare pickup/dropoff area

When you get the new dlc content before the airport dlc this play through was made for 😂😂 - love this series so much!

I think just adding some tree buffers around the park and some nice bushy groves will make it look a lot better

I like how this series started as an airport dlc game, and we're to the next big dlc and there still is no airport. haha

For the festival island you can select empty on the warehouse as well as a resource you don’t produce and it should get rid of the flashing notifications

I really really love where this city is heading :) You really should finish up detailing the downtown, there are lots of unfinished spots. And really fill up the downtown with lots of trees, downtowns can get to gray really quickly, make it green and lush, then its going to be awesome :) :)

Now that you have your Party Island pedestrianized.. how would you feel about placing some leisure or shops on there as well? I have also seen the video you mentioned from CityPlannerPlays and the teleportation of goods is such a cool new thing in the game. As for the open middle part, maybe some good plaza's will be released when you have had enough tourists come by. I don't know how they look yet, but I hope it is something that will fit nicely at that spot☺

Love the video's. I am looking forward to see a car free part of your city!

From now on, you are: James "It is what it is" Turner :P

I think some mid-rise residential buildings would be great in Hickory square where those parks are. Would be a fab place to live - on the beach with fantastic views, walkability and public transport. Really admire your creativity to solve the pedestrians crossing that intersection! Never would have thought to do that.

The zoo that you changed all the roads to bus lanes now can’t have any cars parked out front. Rotate it to a road maybe??

We get to see the cites skylines lets play in 4K now, that's so amazing! It's really nice to see the city in full detail now! Thank you James, I really appreciate it!

You should make a metro but maybe have parts of it be elevated because of the new stations

Maybe reconsider that large fountain plaza now that you have a pedestrian road going down the middle from the zoo you could try the flower plaza that has to go across a pedestrian road?

new city skylines video aka it’s going to be a great day

This is definitively one of the most beautiful city I have ever seen since the release of this game, well done and keep going !

I'm wondering if they made those new two lanes similar size of the larger roads so they'd be easier to upgrade later, without destroying zoning, and especially without having to move plopped buildings (like FD/PD/clinic/etc). But I haven't checked if it helps with that issue

Outstanding Bowser Bay episode, Flabaliki! 🌳🚶🚶🚶🚶🚶🚶🚶🚶🚶🚶🚶🚶🚶🚶🚶🚶🚶🚶🚶🚶🚶🚶🚶🚶🌳

I believe Parkify still enables park items to be placed outside of a park. Very much looking forward to workshop stuff that uses the Pedestrian service point stuff. Honestly they should've known that a 1U road would've been super useful and realistic. Also, why not just change the Mini Bus capacity? Might be unrealistic in capacity but will look nicer going down the hill. And I love that you hadn't done metro. So nice to see all the trams and cablecars and busses all over!! Looking forward to the sprawling suburbs :)

I also watch City Planner plays city skylines, glad you do too! He has some great ideas! As always love these videos James. I get so excited when this series and your sims high school series goes up! Hope Deli and Bowser are good. Happy anniversary to you and Deli!

that new dlc reminds me of gas town in vancouver british columbia canada. it looks like a great new pack for the game

YES! Please build a Metro! it would totally suit Areas like the University which only has the one bus connection to the station, which is pretty unrealistic for a university like that since more people would likely be taking public transport. Also, that area of Coleridge/Myrtle is looking like a transit-oriented development that could use more transit other than the one train station. Could also serve the suburbs towards where the airport might be. Also, since this city has a SF themed district, BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit) Trains could look nice, think they have some as metro trains on the workshop!

i heard the new 81 tiles mod 2 performs better than the original one. it has less lag etc...

As an Amazon delivery driver, the weird nubbins at 43:48 looked like a lovely loading zone. Please put it back to concrete, it was beautiful 😍🥲

I just finished watching your Planet Coaster Hardmode series. A bit sad it ended 😢 I hope you can revisit that save file and finish it ❤️ because of you I got addicted to the game. And learned how to use the all the tools. Before I used to just plop all the rides without adding scenery, that why I always fail 😂 Same with Cities Skyline, I use to zone everything. Then ended up with negative profit 😂 I just love your gameplay so much. Thanks for a super awesome gameplay as always ❤ Edit: BTW, because of you again….I want to play Cities Skyline….again 😂

I am always a fan of metro systems in this game.

This might be my favorite c:s expansion yet. What I really love about the c:s developers is that they left the game open in a way that makes it easy to mod and add addons, while add the same time using that to see what players * want * in the game and eventually delevering that in-game as well.

Hi James, the back to back housing/comercial/industry works only for pedestrian zoning. If you add it on regular zoning nothing will be built!

You could fill up the empty spots you have in your downton with buildings/places that attract tourism, that way it would generate a lot more people to come there and make it seem more lively, + boost the amount of people going through the pedestrian areas

On the festival island, you could have the section with the gazebo's as a seperate little zone as "park", next to the pedestrian area.

I'd turn that tram pedestrian street intersection into a giant crossroad. Much nicer looking and pedestrian friendly than a crossing.

Uh, I'm not seeing it in any earlier comments but your Party Island doesn't have sewage treatment now that you've turned it off. We could see alerts popping up as you moved on. You should either turn the treatment plant back on or connect the island to the city grid.

Instead of Bowser mall… please call it Coconut Mall, I am begging you

A mod really useful to replace roads easily and quickly is the RON (Replace Our Networks) mod. It's almost the same as BOB, but works with networks. Just be wary when replacing roads, so that you don't accidentally replace all roads, but if you read the mod description, you'll easily understand what to do. Keep up the awesome content :)

Its definitely entertaining to see James being taunted by his love of 'organic' shaped roads whilst trying to place down all these square shaped plazas

Put a large cement bowser bay sign with flowerbeds in that grass section near the PLAZA

I feel as if downtown is still missing more skyscrapers to hide the empty spots

I think instead of trying to do the wall to wall through the downtown, you should make a specific ped friendly area of the city… the ped streets could stay as a “transit option” but I think the DLC was meant to make a whole section of the city car free

Pedestrian road city challenge soon!!

hey James ! you should play to Planet Zoo, I am sure you would love it !

underground parking lot suits more for the downtown highschool

Does anyone know how to put wall to wall on residential buildings? I don’t know how and i have bought it

Hi James!

james you should pick where you would live in this city, like think of bowser and deli. i’d love to know which house you’d pick

Hey Patchy!

You know we've got those two parks next to the library and you've got those pedestrian unlockables I would say wait for those unlockables and put them in there they probably fit quite nicely

Love this series, it’s the only thing on YT I have notifs on for! ❤ Now, back to Sedona…!

✈ Do the metro (lines) system and the airport in next Bowser Bay episode. ✈

You being SUPER excited over the Find It update made me laugh.

I'm gonna be honest here mate, I'd be pissed if I had to drive through downtown lol. No parking at the Zoo kids!

The whole downtown needs to be redone and no empty spaces left

When you unlock those special pedestrian places put them in the place you don’t like

Keep up the great work!

This is what I have been waiting for. I cant play myself as my save file still will not load, even though I am using the same mods as you haha.

while working on the downtown maybe revist the skyline too ? I still don't the think black building fits the vibe of the city. bowser bay needs a more modern skyline imo

How do you get more traffic in your downtown. It looks kind of dead. I think it would look more realistic with more cars driving around

I thought the diagonal striping on the crossings looked rad...

how to play the new update with 81 tiles mod. The normal one is broken?

Which mod is it which stops buildings being deleted when you de-zone or change zone? It’s so annoying and I can’t work it out?

can you do an updated mods and assests list please?

Hi James, would love it if you could reply to this, what would be your thoughts on a return to rct3 for a sandbox park! I’ve been playing it recently and it’s made me watch back every series you made and would love some new stuff!!

Bus line is messed up near the small zoo and library

4K 60? YAY

You should just make a new area with the new features then you can really plan a place for them to go

Airport still missing…

16:06 that's what she said

my plan is different
