@ncbras thank you! Your cims should carefully, its very dangerous . Normally the lava should glow. Maybe you can handle light effects with the Ultimate Eyecandy Mod. I only got the theme from the Lava Red Rocks Theme.

Finnaly, the perfect map for my city. By the way, can you make the lava glow at night? Thanks

reminds me of the goron city from botw

the water is important - and you need to keep it as shallow as possible - so the blue of the water does not show. I try to achieve 1 metre of water only. The mod: Topographic Lines is very important to help you get the best flowing lava look.

Please USE all ideas ... this is what I love about our Cities Skylines community .. we all help each other, and we all have ideas, and then someone comes and makes the idea much better - and that is what I love.
I hope you and I keep exchanging ideas and make CS even better for ALL players :-)

You made a very cool city. I like the light effects at the pyramids. The low high of water at lava texture visualise the lava not so much static. Additionally you added some stones and fire effects. Maybe i use some of your idea in my city. I want to build a fortress on lava. :-)

Here is the video - after a while I fly over the flowing lava - and it is with ADDED steam , and I have to thank YOU for that :-)

Move it you can use for the smoke/steam props, and then it doesn't matter they go under water.
I stole your park idea - because I could not place the smoke/steam props where i wanted in the map editor - they would just NOT show in-game. And it works - and what I do is this: I slightly raise the ground so it is 1 metre above water level - and place the steam/smoke parks there.

Oh - I made a little video - watch it and delete the comment if you want after it.

Maybe Move it could be better for this. But i meant smoke effects which have an higher intensity and amount of smoke would be better when water meets lava.

Hi - yes: parks can never be placed under water. I think making a prop into a custom prop might let you place it (and be visible) anywhere in the map editor .. and if it is a prop - then move it mod easily lets you place it under water.

I am about to publish a map with lava too ... but there seems to be a problem with the game since yesterday's update - as the game doesn't automatically connects a custom theme anymore to a map when you start a new game. I let Colossal Order know about this fault - and i hope they fix it soon, and then I'll publish my map - because I made a lava theme especially for my map.

Thank you for your feedback. I saved a lava prop (default prop in the game) as a building and set it with the mod building anarchy on the lava. Maybe there better ways to make it. Unfortunetly I don't know how to make much more smoke when lava meets water. That would be very cool. The lava is a sand texture of the lava theme Lava Red Rocks Theme.

This looks really cool! Nice one. Also - you made the lava smoke building as a park, so you could have the steam anywhere you wanted in the map?

I fixed it. You can fix it with the Mod 81 Tiles (Fixed for 1.2+) if you don't want to start to build a new city.

One Outside connection of the Highway isn't connected. Sorry :-(
