Middle East Development

[Lukemfc]

Must say fairly new to promods this add on is amazing

[BreakerTR]

If you mean in Black Sea DLC, no there aren't any.

This should be done then.
If the developers don't mind to do it, that is. I want to know in which of the 81 provinces I am.

Hi again.

I wanna mention one point about palm vegetation in south Turkey. As you now, we have Mediterranean climate in the area just like the most of ME Add-On areas, and Italy. When i played the Add-on, i payed attention one thing. There is a lot of palm trees placed in cities, but most of them are the same type.



I found this picture in the Google images. As far as i can see, there are 3 types of palm trees used in that city. In Adana and Mersin, you can see the tallest ones -Washingtonia Robusta- a lot (For Iskenderun and Antakya, i dont know very well). Specially in centre and industrial areas of Adana and around of Port of Mersin. So if we see many types of palm trees in these areas, that would be very great.

I hope no one misunderstoods me. I know the design process, and i dont wanna be annoying, smarty-pants person I'm just very excited and cant help for talking about it.

Thanks for all that wonderfull work.

Hi,

If you found pictures of southern Turkey, they are not coming from the Mid-East add-on, simply because this area is not yet developped.
It should come from another mod, and I don't recognize the area on this photo (There's no Wallbert in ME add-on too).
Anyway, I will try to vary the palm trees models

Regards,
Platypus

So the ATS palm trees would fit the ME map quite nicely?

Thanks for the respond Playtpus.

The photo is not represent south of Turkey. I share it just for the show some palm trees in ATS, of course. I'm not found it from any add on. I just wrote "palm trees in ATS" to Google Because i think you use the trees of ATS in the ME Add-on and i think it can be fit perfectly to the area, because the climate. And thank you for kindness, too.

Shiva, i think yes, it fits. Because both California and surrounding states, and the south Turkey and Mid-East have Mediterranean climate.

worldisblack, those short look a bit like Phoenix canariensis?
Iberia DLC might bring some nice palms
Did France and Italy DLC's bring any palms? I can't remember.

[worldisblack]

Shiva, the photo shows 3 different types of palm trees and yes, there is a lot Canariensis. What im saying is, in Adana and Mersin, you can see mostly Washingtonia Robusta, but of course we have Canariensis, and even Archontophoenix

Here is an example, the entrance of Organised Industrial Zone of Adana. You can see the Robustas.


And here is a photo which includes Port of Mersin and Mersin Train Station:


South of Italy, Sicily, Corsica and some cities of France like Nice and Marsielle have a lot palm trees, yes. I play mostly these areas

Nice! I wish that Google streetview would not had a gap for that roundabout.

Sadly I have no permission to view the image about Port of Mersin and Mersin Train Station.
+ I should drive more in southern France, Italy etc

I think that Platypus might have a nice amount of different palm tree's on disposal now

[worldisblack]

Oh yes, there is some weird gaps in Streetview in Adana, i dont know why. And here is the link of Mersin image on Streetview: shorturl.at/adru1 You can see both, plus, the skycraper of Mersin.
