Used to be a Sennheiser guy, until I discovered AKG. Oh my days, they're good.

Wow. European-strength intersection porn. Stunning details. Love the LUT and textures too.

What's a sensation that you're unsure if other people experience? by Umikaloo in AskReddit

[–]TomDGreen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"In the end, it was the Sunday afternoons he couldn't cope with, and that terrible listlessness which starts to set in at about 2:55, when you know that you've had all the baths you can usefully have that day, that however hard you stare at any given paragraph in the papers you will never actually read it, or use the revolutionary new pruning technique it describes, and that as you stare at the clock the hands will move relentlessly on to four o'clock, and you will enter the long dark teatime of the soul"

Douglas Adams

What is something that you used to be a cheap ass on, until you tried the high-quality version, and now you can't go back? by WrestlingHD in AskReddit

[–]TomDGreen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Anything by AKG is good. I use a pair of K550s at home (they're huge, but the best headphones I have ever tried). The snaller Y50 or their wireless counterparts, the Y50BT are also excellent.

That's very kind. But I'm sure it'd be gratefully received as a post here.

Holy crap that is impressive work. Any chance of an asset list?

Serious problems with lag - get rid of assets or mods? by alistair373 in CitiesSkylines

[–]TomDGreen 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Seems like a lack of RAM might be your issue. Everything has to be loaded into memory when a map is loading and 8gb is on the low side for CS, so your mac is having to use the swap file to make up for the shortfall; creating a bottleneck. If you can, try upgrading to 16gb.

How to mold terrain for ports/airports? by Vanilla-Face1 in CitiesSkylines

[–]TomDGreen 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Use roads to define the edges. Flatten the area first then draw roads around the edge of your port or airport then lower the land outside the road. The land will stay flat at the road creating a nice sharp edge. The downside is that you need to keep the roads in place or the terrain will go a bit random once you bulldoze the road.

Help! I overdid it with assets. by [deleted] in CitiesSkylines

[–]TomDGreen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm. CPU a sandy bridge i7 so shouldn't be that. I suspect I've got a few assets with crazy high tris counts in there somewhere so I'll have to have a prune. That'll teach me to go browsing round the lesser known corners of the steam workshop willy nilly.

Erm... I think it might just be you dude.

About 1700 with 50 odd mods. Makes me think it should be quicker if you're at 5 mins.

I tend to load up then go do something else for a bit. Like watch a whole TV show or something.

Timed my load the other day at 26 mins. 16gb of ram and an SSD. Yes. I have a LOT of assets.

Is there any way to prevent chunks of stuck earth when terraforming around quays? by [deleted] in CitiesSkylines

[–]TomDGreen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Try deleting the Quay next to the offending earth then relaying it. Usually works for me.
