Have you ever wanted to build the city where you grew up, or your favorite place to visit? Now you can with Cities Skylines. Follow these stepbystep instructions, its not that hard. I show you how to make a real location custom map in Cities Skylines. This is part one where we import a height map, add streets image overlay to trace roads, and set the sea level and the starting square. This is the first in my series on Remote Japan. Enjoy S02E01
