[WIP] Lyubimovo (Fictional)

Hello!

I want to introduce my new fictional suburban map named Lyubimovo (name of this small town can be roughly translated as "Darling place" or something like this). The work started in 2018 and progressed very slowly, and then in 2022-2023 the development went much faster.

My project includes at this moment:

- 9 routes;

- about 60-70 km of countryside roads and highways;

- more than 500 unique objects and splines;

- different road conditions;

- beautiful landscapes;

- seasonal textures;

- sound environment depending on time and season;

- completely new photorealistic trees and vegetation pack (default trees aren't used on this map);

- unique small and mid-capacity AI-buses;

- AI tractors, narrow gauge (750 mm) and parkbahn trains, special vehicles;

- school routes;

- ticket pack and recorded passenger voices;

- seasonal features, situations (fallen trees, closed roads etc.) and Chrono events.

The main goal of my project is a compromise between optimization and beautiful landscapes. Project is well-optimised (textures, low-poly models, LODs, etc.), it was tested just for fun on 15 years old PC with good FPS

Preview:

I'll keep you updated!

Some typical landscapes. 30 km from the main town, narrow country roads, quietness and calm

Different roads and weather conditions

Let me show some seasonal features I'll make few timelapse videos with different seasons soon.

Foggy autumn vibes:

Frosty winter days:

Sometimes you can try yourself in situations like these:

Railway crossing. Historical 750mm railway and sugar beet train

Small forests, hills, fields and meadows are typical landscapes on the map

Autumn highway, you can find solar-powered lamps and LED crossing signs far from the town
