great work guys

too bad you're not going to make brisbane (as the one already submitted isn't very good :/ )


so....i'd like to request Phnom Penh, Cambodia

the region is absolutely flat, here's a satellite picture (27km x 27km) -

think of it as a skinny manhattan?

edit

THERE missing the south bay maxis was so stupid thats why u guys r my only HOPE TO MAKE THE SOUTH BAY!!

Yeah, we're supposed to make maps, but you're saying that taking everybody's requests and spending all the time and effort making a map that nobody cares about except for one member is what we should be doing. Correct me if I am wrong here.

BTW, what is South Bay? First of all, Maxis shouldn't have to make maps of places nobody's ever heard of unless it's a fantasy map. Second, how are we supposed to know what South Bay is?

I'm still confused by that post.

Just in case.. how is going the plans for mexico city and monterrey, mexico, well i dont want this proyects to die , and as im still interest on it, i will keep checking progress and posting time to time.

Ciao?

[airmale007 3]

I have run into some problems (RLS mostly) and will be unable to finish Des Moines on time- I expect I won't have it until Friday at the earliest, probably more like next Tuesday. My apologies.

[Fairlane500 8]

Mallow: If it's not too much of a problem, could I update my request to include the east side of Willapa Bay up to just above Bay Center, including the town of Nemah? It's not much farther north, and little bit more east, and would make my CJ a little more interesting. Also, are the Jettys too small to show up in detail?

Date: 4/10/2005 11:03:26 PM Author: MallowTheCloud Well, I sort of agree... but then we did tell everybody that we were stacked up, and maybe people are just being patient. I dunno.

quote> They were making requests though, even when we said that. The way I look at it, most of these requests aren't too serious, it's just members that want to see a map made and say what map or maps they want to see made here. I just don't see the need in fufulling those requests unless they are truly serious. For example, I made that Dover, NJ region, but I don't think the requester of the map has even noticed, because he hasn't posted anything about it anywhere. However, my Ft. Myers and Washington, DC maps were requested, and the requesters of those maps responded after I made those maps, so they were serious. I guess we should wait for TNS to make some decisions on this matter, and to see if these requests are really serious or not, before I completely stop taking requests. comdude

I apologize for not posting right away.  I was patiently awaiting the day it was coming out, and of course the day it comes out I'm out of town!  [:0]  Isn't that how it always is?

 

Thank you for doing it, and I'm sorry that I've caused such angst...

[comdude21 6]

I sure am glad your request was still active for that map, ginchael. I thought you had forgotten about it but thankfully, you had it. No problem doing it, I'll do any NJ region.

The South Bay Is pretty Self explantory south Bay is South Of The Bay area its not a fantasy world its the silicon valley home to the major high tech companies and expensive homes and high gas prices

[comdude21 6]

Alright, I live in NJ so that's why I didn't know what the South Bay was. I didn't know what East Bay was either. I know there's a Bay Area, but it's not like we all live in California here. And there's a lot of places in the world that have bays, and there could be a lot of South Bays.

If you're taking pre law then show it and be more clear in your post, I'm still trying to understand what that post means. Stuff like its your guys job to make MAP. I don't get it. Then you go from the Mapp Squad to California, and I don't know where that came from.

I'm not trying to argue with you dude. I'm just trying to understand what you're saying. And I didn't ask anything about an east bay.

I'm confused.

[Ninja12 3]

Sure. I can include that area as well.

I haven't looked at the DEM data yet, so I don't know if the jetty's will show up or not.

My guess is they will, but I can't guarantee that...

[jacqulina 162]

thankyou i will sort a photo out and send it

[ricky_the_great 0]

May I request Memphis, TN region

[psteverific 8]

Great work, you guys!
I'm absolutly thrilled that you've already uploaded the Ottawa, Ontario map, I honestly didn't think I'd be seeing that so soon, but then again, for some reason, I never thought to visit this thread.

 

I don't know if you are taking requests again yet, but another map I've dreamed of seeing is the island of Bermuda. I know you are all real busy, and i'm not in any hurry, since you've already given me Ottawa to work on.

but if someone could do it, I'd be real grateful. Those are the two maps I've wanted to build on since the day I got the game.

 

Thanks for your consideration, and again, great work!

[comdude21 6]

Thanks for apologizing ninja and yes I do forgive you. One of us will jump on your request but we have to get the older ones done first for the members that have been waiting a while.

I'm going to make either Las Vegas, NV or Boston, MA. I'm leaning towards Vegas at the time, although I may make Boston. TNS, would it be possible for me to take both of these requests and release them Friday/Saturday? Thanks for considering.

Oh, and the island of Bermuda would be really cool, but it'll have to wait like the other new ones before we can get to it.

comdude

[Fairlane500 8]

I would like to eventually see a Bermuda map, also. I remeber one time I created an out of scale, pretty acurate mmap of the islands by hand in SC3K. I covered every inch with development, it was awesome. I think it may still be on my Grandma's computer.

[krillin1501 0]

I posted on the last page inquiring about the progress of the Indianapolis region and have not heard back from anyone on it.  again,  i know you guys are busy, but if someone could tell me about the progress,  it would be appreciated. 

thanks again and keep up the good work!

[fitchy 3]

Greater Kansas City area, with the map sizes set up  to reflect the suburb sizes.  Thanks

I'm glad to hear that you see potential in a bermuda map, and like I said, do what you gotta do first, I'm not in any hurry (it is, after all, just a game). I was a little worried that you would not have access to the geological survey data for that area, but I guess that's not a problem?

 

I also have noticed that your_address_here has the title of Map Squad Apprentice... does this mean he is getting 'on the job training' as a map maker? Is it possible that once he 'graduates' to full Map Squad Member, you might consider taking on a new apprentice?

If so, I'd be honoured if you'd consider taking me under your collective wing, I belive with a small amount of guidance I could be quite an asset to your team.

 

In any case, I'll be checking back here regularly to watch for any progress. Thanks again, you guys are doing a bang up job.

Well, I know I can get info on Bermuda. I will be able to do this request, but not right now.

As for apprenticing, I think it would be no problem, but you'll have to talk to TNS...

To krillin: Since I have two maps to release this Saturday, I think they will be Indianapolis and Long Beach.

[psteverific 8]

Forgive me, I hadn't noticed the 'application form' in the new members thread untill just after I posted the above, at which point my father-in-law needed the computer before I had time to edit it.
Please disregard my apprenticeship comment, now that I know better, I will go through the proper chanels.

thanks for your patience; TheRealSimman, I will probably send you a PM late tonight, as I have to leave for work soon.

Hope that someone would like to give this map a try.

I was wondering if you could do the Everett-Marysville-Arlington area of Western Washington. If you need a map then i could send it to you. Thanks.

Actually, MallowTheCloud just did a really good Everett map. It's on the STEX, you can search for Everett and will probably find it. Hope this helps.
