Build Smarter: Procedural Building Capacities in Parcel and Sector Editor

  • Easily create city blocks of procedural buildings using flexible Editor options for crosslinking templates. Link sectors into parcels or parcels into sectors - you choose the best tool for the job.

  • Create sharp, clean corners that fit just right. New sector cutting function adapts your city blocks to available geometry. No awkward fits or jagged edges.

  • Create a more complex city using new Surface Handling features. Hand-draw your city surfaces for extra precision, apply templates, and start generating. Use multiple city surfaces to add visually and geographically diverse areas to your city.

Be Real: GIS/SHP Data Import

  • Wonder what your city would look like on an existing road network? Import real-time geographic data in XML format from GoogleMaps or other applications.

  • Generate maps with Sector Editor using a simple convert-and-tag process. Visualize the road network and existing polygons on your map.

  • Import your map to City Designer and build your city on the resulting surfaces.

Go Faster: Improved Performance and Memory Management

  • Speed up with performance optimizations and memory management enhancement.

  • Cut down on expand and generation time with faster processing of template modifications and City Designer Handling options. Parcel regeneration and city generation move faster, leaving you with extra time to build more cities.

Streamline Workflows: Better Template Management

  • Get instant feedback on template appearance and expansion with enhanced Editor GUIs. Update Policies and Geometry, and see the results instantaneously.

  • Visualize Sectors and Crossroads as you build with new Refresh options.

  • Edit and remove parcel elements faster. Switch meshes or add a Policy in a flash. See something you don’t like? Click once and it’s gone.

  • Make it easier for your team to work in parallel through fast edition, saves, and sharing.
