I must know what plugins you are using to get the tropical island look right!!! I love islands and I love those trees. I must have them. and the rocky cliffs too!! can you give us the secret to what main mods your using?

Update : Whats going on with Tropics of Haalu

As some of you know, I have recently come back as I've found *some* time between the new university life and attempting to do stuff with SC4. Anyways, I've made a couple updates in my other journal, Sin City Chronicles, and will also be updating this one as well. I actually planned on updating around now, but I've encountered a very irritating bug that is keeping me from working on my most anticipated city yet, Bastia, the Nice recreation.

You see, the problem here is that all the buildings I need to use are in the European building set, and unfortunately I've run into the dreaded crash to desktop everytime I try to select any particular building set to build into. I'm completely puzzled as to what is causing it and have no idea where to even begin in my plugins folder trying to find the culprit behind this bug.

If I can't figure this out, we may not see bastia for a long time, so I'm asking anyone that has come across this bug if they know of any mods that may cause the crash.

On a more brighter note, I suppose I'll begin working north west on the island which is going to lead to some suprises in building variety. The only hint I can give for now is I've attempted what I'm going to do with this island in my very first Journal, Calivada.

Anyways, I look forward to throwing up a quick update most likely today as I plan on going out for the weekend, We'll see how it goes. Until then, take care folks.

I hope you will get this resolved - you have a great CJ going and I look forward to your updates

[jacqulina 162]

I hope you can sort out your probs,and i look forward to more updates when you can

[SpecialEddie 3]

I don't know of this might not be the problem, but are you hovering a road over a transit-enabled lot? You probably know that this makes it crash already, but I'm just trying to help. 

Please! The Public wants to see Bastia!

I had this error aswell some time ago. everytime I selected the euro tileset or all tilesets at once, the game crashed to desktop.

I can't remember what file it was cuz it's really long time ago, but I had to find it out with this "alwas cut to half" thing to do with the plugins folder. was a lot of work... but helpful as nothing else

I hope you get this error solved

EDIT: just found the doublepost... sry for that

Haalu Takes Home an Award From the Trixies!

Wow! It is a great honour to get an award from the trixies, especially the custom added graphics one! Getting an award for something I love to do is great, and I'd like to thank all those who nominated me. Seeing The Tropics of Haalu nominated in The Best CJ category as well was quite a surreal suprise, with so many other great CJs out there (congrats on the most prestigous CJ award Darmok! It was well deserved).

As I have said I've been trying to get updates out for this CJ, but I'm right in the middle of an exam schedule right now, so its doubtful for any large updates or any for the next 2 weeks. However, I'll be off for two weeks after, and we can definitely expect some catch up there. I'm in the midst of planning an overhaul for the other half of the island. Hopefully it will be a pleasent suprise for everyone.

Also thanks to all that have gave me ideas with the problem. I'll look into it and hopefully find the culprit, in the mean time though the terraforming on the rest of the island should provide something else to do.

Take care all!
