Looks really good.  I really like the layout of the farm land in the regon shot.  Looks like you have alot of the region developed so far.  I also like the variety of pics you provided and the way you pointed out areas of interest in each.

 
Please keep it up...10.gif

Nice start! This has everything I look for in a CJ - region pics, close-ups, good captions, and pretty pics. Looking forward to more! 44.gif

    Great update.  I really like the transit map that starts off the update.

    Pic 1 - The scenic shot of the train crossing the river is outstanding.  Such a simple shot, but with the water texture, it looks almost realistic.
     
    Pic 2 - How did you get your train to connect that many cars together?  Iv'e never seen one that long.
     
    Pic 5 - Are those missing textures on the airport runway?
     
    Keep up the great work...10.gif

    To reply to your first point, the way to get the trains so long is simply high useage levels.
    Your second point, I think someone may have overwritten the airport textures, but the wierdest thing is that it is only for that airport, not the other two. Thanks for replying!44.gif

    Wow! Great city.

    One question though... are you running SC4 on Linux? If so, did they make a Linux version, or are you using a Windoze version?

    Because, right now, basically the only reason I am using Windoze is because of SC4.

    There are ways to run it under Linux (google it). However, it will always run better on windoze, because that's what it's designed for.30.gif
    I will not be updating for a while as I'm going on holiday!39.gif

    Very nice city with a lot of interesting points of interest. I like the transit map also and the little pic that shows where a particular spot is located.

    Nice start, I really like that transit authority map. I wish I could make something like that! What we really need is a guide to maps like that.... Great work.

    Hey, I'm still on holiday, but I've got access to the internet! Thanks for the comments. I don't know the commute numbers, but it's very high. I've managed to get most people in the city using mass transit. The map, I just traced in vectors and enlarged!
