**********************






One Click Collection for this map's requirements: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1104603593

Fjordland No DLC, No Theme Version. I would have converted the many country highways to NExt2, but it's better to leave the choice of mod or no mod up to you. See help images re: upgrading your country roads.

See the original map's page for all the images that will help you plan and see just how much is in this map! http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1111828158
- You still get all decoration.

- Sand (snow in MT version's theme) has been removed rom mountaintops

- Ore (highland heath in MT version) and Ore (leaves in MT version) have been moved off of decoration areas and placed as regular resource deposits

- Small MT 2 lane highways build throughout the map have been converted to onramp (otherwise you couldn't open the map to begin with), and so you can choose whether you want Network Extensions or not, and what roads you want to change the country lanes to (or bulldoze of course)

- No required theme, converted to Temperate so you are free to choose a map theme you prefer from temperate themes, many of which count among some of the nicest map themes out in the workshop. You can of course convert any map using BloodyPenguin's Environment Changer mod (see images for example of using the mod)

Project started in 2015

Traffic System You will not see the usual regular traffic on your highways for quite some time.. This is intentional. There are explanatory images above. The traffic will definitely come, but you will be able to handle the more realistic levels because all traffic not actually destined for your city has been moved to an outer ring that you cannot see at the start square.


With a backdrop of soaring glacier-scoured moutains with cascading waterfalls, Fjordland is a maze of islands and peninsulas whose calm, serene fjords offer tranquil beauty for your new city. Gently rolling countryside surround your center city area with endless possibilites for a spread of villages and satellite towns built among beautiful small-scale landscape features with majestic snow covered peaks in the distance.

Development time: This map was started August 2015. Glad to see it "finished enough"

Detailing explanation: Scenic, unbuildable parts in your start area are highly decorated. There are a few other detailed areas but mostly I intended to leave you with a small list of good props, decals and trees, show you some examples of what you can do with them, and leave the rest of decoratting up to you

See detailed images above to get full information and advice on planning your city.

THANKS:

- Thanks to Mr Maison and Pdelmo for the trees made especially for this map! The Norway Spruce and variations of Sweet Gum fall colors are greatly appreciated. Thanks for all your other trees along with Lost_Gecko's and Stone3D's fine creations. You all make this map what it is!
- Many thanks to Funchenstein for his advice on railroad construction! Modern infrastructure has been throughly planned, with careful attention to gameplay mechanics.
- Thanks to Agusingnavy, Kapustor and Arisandi for the fine intersections used in this map
- Thanks to OWL for the inspriation and sharing with me ways to bring my map skills up to that next level!
- Thanks to Ronyx69 for sharing the water and foam normals! They make the theme look so much better.
- Thanks to everyone at Skylines Nation group for the encouragement and the great ideas they share every day!

There are many more thanks, but if I don't just get on with publishing, it will take another 2 years before I finish this. :D

Ooo I am excited to see how it goes! It was a lot of fun to build on this, because there are so many places for little scenes, independent of one another. Villages everywhere! :D

This will be my 1st build map, after being gone for so long. :) You know me and the Northern reaches.... I'll try it with my Iceland theme too. :)

Ah! Cool! Then you'll just want the map theme, and when you start your map instead of a default theme, click "user made themes" and pick Boreal Snowy Peaks. In that collection are some fallen leaves decals you will like, too. Looking forward to seeing your creation!!!

thanks so much! I actually just wanted the theme to use with theme mixer since I made my own custom heightmap and google map overlay based closly off of Rochester NY-- I am also commissioning Honker to make the centural tower for my build, just wanted to test the fallen leave textures :) thanks so much for your helpfullness though!:steamhappy:

Glad to walk you through it:) . First you can go here to this collection, click subscribe all. It includes the map theme https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1104603593
Then come back here to this page and subscribe to the map.
Once that's all done, when you start a new game with this map, it will all work together and the map is designed to automatically load everything correctly for you :)
Let me know if it worked for you and happy building!:chirp:

sorry, but I do not understand, how do I get your theme with the snow and fallen leaves textures if this is just the map?
MrMiyagi  [author] Mar 3, 2018 @ 9:45am 
Yup, no difference except roads and theme. This version was made specifically so people who don't have have Mass Transit can also enjoy Fjordland, and also the theme was removed so that they could choose any theme they want.

I love Mass Transit because its extra roads are guaranteed to always work in the future, whereas if you use a mod or modded roads, there is a risk of those roads breaking your game. The monorail and ferries are cool, but I got it for those error-proof roads :)

Thx very much! 10/10. Went for mass transit in the end, so comparing now there is really no difference. Great job.

Oh, forgot, with step number 2, on the "load map" screen, where it says "theme: none", click that and select the theme Miyagi Boreal with Snowy Peaks
MrMiyagi  [author] Mar 3, 2018 @ 2:57am 
If you have Mass Transit, then use this one: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1111828158

If you do not have Mass Transit,
1. Subscribe to the boreal snowy mountains theme http://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=684085294
2. From the main menu, open Fjordland map in Map Editor
3. Use the sand paint brush (bottom icons, yellow "nature" button)
4. Paint snow wherever you like
5. Save with a unique name (like "Fjordland edit")
Now your version of Fjordland will have snowy mountians! :)
