Maybe it's because I ate too many cheeseburgers LOL.

I'll try hotdogs next time!

To be completely honest, I don't like the photo effects. They distort the picture too much, and make them look very odd. I really liked the pictures that were unedited.

Also, if you are going to edit pictures, you may want to minimize the main game bar. I have noticed that it is open in most of your screenshots, taking a significant portion of the screen and looking rather ugly.

The cities themselves are pretty nice, I have always been a sucker for European cities. Can we get some zoomed out shots? Right now all you have posted are shots of single buildings.

MayorTim: Alright, I'll try to take out the photo effects because I don't like them either 4.gif

How exactly can you fix the main game bar?

And yes, I am working on the region shots and they should be coming in the next updates.

EDIT: The pictures that had unnessesary texturing have been replaced, Hopefully this makes the CJ look a little better 9.gif

UPDATE 1: Visit to Lovelia

Today some of my friends, James (from Govia), Angela (from Monte Simmay) and I (from Govia)

are going down about 300 miles north to the small

fishing village of Lovelia. We're catching a steam train from Grand Central Station so it'll be a very fun ride!

Hurry, James, Angela and I are heading to the Station to grab the 4 o clock train!

James says: This is going to be a little harder than I thought, 46.gif Oh never mind, There's our train, Hurry!

Me: We made it just in time! Just 4 hours till we get to Lovelia, 'I'll wake you up when we get close 2.gif

James and Angela : 23.gif

PS - - I think there's a passenger cart in the back of the train, if not, than well that's just too damn bad 9.gif

3 hours later...

We're almost there, Check this place

While James, Angela and I were asleep, The train we took from Govia was heading back to Grand Central but when a freak ice storm passed by the Icy Tracks made the train derail, Thankfully there were only crew on board and only one crew member was injured, However, 100,000 Euros worth of Cargo was lost in the crash. A helicopter from Govia has already arrived to rescue the crew members.

Here's a super small mini update/teaser of what you should expect in the next large update.

Some sights you should expect to see in later updates:

newcityjun8011158977176copyus9.jpg

The Presidencial Square that houses the city's clocktower/sundial, and the mayor's office and palace.

NewCity-Jun-3.jpg

Cathedral Square and the Market Shops.

NewCity-Jun-2.jpg

Common houses along the Ferry harbour.

And finally:

NewCity-Jun-1.jpg

The City hall and Musuem that collects the most priceless works of art in Europe after the Lovre and hosts the city's politics.

This is a very popular hang out of the pigeons 9.gif

That's it for now, Hope you enjoy the little teaser.

    Untitled-3-1.jpg

    Untitled-2-2.jpg

    We fly around town for about an hour looking for a place to land...

    Untitled-6-1.jpg

    Finally, At dusk we FINNALLY found a helipad and we land.

    Untitdddled-3.jpg

    We then found two taxi boats that was going to take us to the Central Plaza where we are going to meet Aunt Nancy.

    Untitlesssss-5.jpg

    We dock our boat and I rush out into Aunt Nancy's arm!

    Me: AUNTIE, HOW HAVE YOU BEEN? ITS BEEN FOREVER.

    Aunt: DANIEL! Ah, I've missed you boy! You really need to visit me more often!

    Me: I sure will, I forgot how beautiful this place was 43.gif

    Aunt: And who are these kind folk?

    Me: These are my friends, James and Angela.

    Aunt: Ah! I remember you mentioning them on the phone.

    Aunt: Nice to meet you both!

    Angela and James: Nice to meet you Nancy.

    Daniel:  -stomach growl-

    James: Come on guys, I'm hungry.

    Auntie: Let's head into the restaurant...

    Auntie: Wow, This place sure is filled up, I hope we don't have to wait.

    Me: Don't worry about it, I've got reservations.

    Waiter: Your table awaits you.

    We sat down in a huge table in the back side of the restaurant and we enjoyed a feast!

    30 minutes later:

    All: I think I ate too much 15.gif

    Aunt:We'd better get home before night hits.

    Me: Yeah, This place gets very dark at night.

    We walk for about 5 minutes, then we cross a bridge, and get to Aunt Nancy's home.

    Untitledddd-6.jpg

    We quickly slipped into our pjs and headed off to our beds.

    James: Ahh, Finally, Some clean sheets!

    Aunt: Would you guys like some tea?

    Angela: Oh heavens no, I've got food coming out of my ears!

    Aunt: Alright, Good night!

    James, angela, me: Night!

    We fell asleep, Oblivious to what was happening only 50 miles away from town...

    ......
