France and Monaco Development

[phlyer91]

What will be the estimated wait between 2.12 and 2.15? Are we looking weeks or months ScuL?

The answer is, we don't know. If we can make it work in the next two weeks it will be in 2016, if we can't it will be February or later.

Let's hope! Good luck!

Hi,

Very interesting debates. I can give you my personnal advice. My region (Brittany) was well built by Kubytchek, I have recognized many the periurban area of Rennes and Brest with its beautifull bridge "Pont de l'Iroise". And I have seen my town (Ploërmel) which does not appear on the map, but located not far from a factory. Moreover, Kubytchek has use briton names for cities and some signals : "Khreiz-Kehr" which mean city center. I know that he has left Promods.

As I have read through previous pages, I understand your plan : replace Promodsmap by DLC France. And then, rework on it. If I have an adivce tell you when rebuilding : please add to DLC map the missing cities created by Promods team (I don't see Poirtiers or Angoulême on DLC map). I really appreciate the work. We even can go further : more signals, more road pannels (that show remaining kilometers to the city, like on german and scandinavian parts of the promods map).

Anyway, Thank you very much for your efforts. I would like to contribute but I am geographer who don't know to modelize in 3d, but who can elaborate road maps and more...

@yitianetie
I share your opinion regarding Brittany. It is really interesting that he did this.
Added to that, I think that there is still possibility to use some, but only a very small part, of his work.
Other than that, I think that taking the DLC map and upgrading it (like in Scandinavia), is an interesting way of solving it, adding to the SCS quality, a bit of ProMods quality, which we all cherish here!

Hey. I'm a geographer. I did not know how to modelize in 3D, still managed to help by creating a few designs. It's a matter of knowing if the new head of development for France wants some help.

Kutchek made a great job with Britanny. One of my regrets is that he never really updated the signs in Bayonne, which are in three languages. With some serious work, Promods France 2.0 could be exceptional.

Yes! I can already imagine. Only sad that the lead developer for France left ProMods.

What I can imagine will be ProMods first development in France is..... La Corse!

And then I can see some development in Alsace... In Bretagne, Normandie, Aquitaine (specially), Midi-Pyrénées and Provance-Alpes-Côte d'Azur. That is where there is the most amount of space for development of new cities and roads is...

Wow, now I realize how many regions I included.
Some of the original France's work can Still be used. Some of that is still pretty new, so, no need to update it. Specially in the Midi-Pyrénées and Aquitaine... But perhaps also in Normandie.
Though, I can imagine that SCS will do a later release like in the Going East update, to include a few more towns and roads.

I dnt know why scs remove eiffel tower and other monument of Paris, i really wanted that promods make just this mythique road



What do you think ?

(no hard to find 3d model)

[Volleybal4life]

SCS had to remove the Eiffeltower due to French copyright..

[Dannu]

What?!

[Chris94_NOR]

MrSimsFani, didn't you heard what Mandelsoft said yesterday on Squirrel's stream? SCS have stuggled to get approved copyright to have the Eiffel Tower in the game. Probably a lot more French landmarks they didn't get an approval on.

[brainiac]

Can Promods return Eiffel tower?
