Edmonton September 28th 2006

I've done some work lately and sould have an update in the next few weeks.

Some new roads have been placedin Sherwood Park and a few random areas have been touched up.

In the mean time here are a few pictures I took the other day around Edmonton. I took these pictures just SW of downtown. I wanted to test my new Camera out....

[Fallon144 1]

Wow, those are some nice pics mate, can't wait to see the update!

[cammo2003 20]

Hmm, there seems to be an extra blank page.

Oh well.

I din't see the pictures the first time, but they're quite nice TJD!

The autumnal trees look great. It's something you don't see alot of in Australia (you do see it, but you generally don't see it so vibrantly displayed).

Eucalypts are evergreen, so even in winter, most areas look very green. Heck, we have green trees up in the Snowy Mountains (and yes, they actually ARE called that - it's a section of the Great Divide that actually gets significant amounts of snow in winter).

And the trees that lose their leaves here don't get so vibrant. Canberra's one of the exceptions (I believe trees were planted there to create that effect).

it is incredible how much more color the trees have up north than

[scafer 0]

so, what % do you think is complete? any pics of WEM and Rexall you can get hosted on simtrop because i cant see photbucket/imageshack, etc. any downloads yet for us readers?

     Here's a picture I have of Edmonton I took a few years ago in April.  It shows the variety of certain buildings, such as Canada Place (the big pink one) and Manulife Place (the blue one, tallest in the city), and the similarities (boxes...) of others.

Simply outstanding! This is the greatest recreation of a real city that I've seen on here. All I can really say is...Go Oilers!

[jacqulina 162]

awesome pic and work

[purpledaddy 6]

Ooooh a new (so to speak) classic CJ to tackle and read cover to cover!    This one a re-creation.  Well at least as of page 64 I liked your stats, your RL pictures of your beautiful city, and your advice to up and comers.   That's enough to make me want to start from the beginning!

The coolest thing is, you can start with Vanilla...a game with no Avenues, real highways, or oneway roads. And now, with NAM...it is amazing!
