    Thanks for hanging in there guys, RLS has been hectic and of course it's bowl season, so updates are spread a little thin right now, but they will pick back up especially after the Fiesta Bowl.

    It is time for another update finally!  YESSSSS!!!!!!!!!

    jacqulina - Thanks for not eating my shopping center, lol - glad you are liking my pics!

    football_fever - Thank you, I tried to come up with something new for that interchange.  I only modified the lot for the Nissan dealership, so I probably shouldn't upload anything to the STEX.  

    BlondeTwiggy - No problemo twigster, I'm glad you still like my city!

    Giligone - Haha, thanks!  Yes, those browsky's are quite the character.  I'm glad you like what i'm doing!  

    paulvmontfort - Thanks!

    connor_v - Thank you, I like how that turned out as well!

    jacqulina - Thanks again!

    SpecialEddie - It's great that you like my un-edited pics, and i'm happy to keep you entertained with my captions!  

    RushHourFreak - I'm very glad you like it!

    luker91 - Lol, i'm happy you like the shopping center where the "incidents" occurred!  Turns out you had to wait for another update, sorry about that!

    jacqulina - thanks for still hanging in there, lol!

    mayorron - Thanks bud!

    luker91 - Thanks, even though the Fiesta bowl didn't turn out the way I wanted, it still was a great game to watch!

    football_fever - I hear you!  

    simster6 - Thanks dude!

    football_fever - It's coming! lol

    Giligone - Hey, sorry to dissapoint you, but I didn't have another Browsky story prepared for this update, but be on the lookout for one soon!  hehehe

    Here are some new pics for you...

    Wow, that's quite a Highway system around downtown. I really really like the interchange at the bend of the avenue and highway, essentially using a T-intersection as an on-ramp. I never would have thought of that.

    UpdateBanner11.jpg

    It's here!!!

    pickled_pig - Thanks, it's nice to have a dignitary like yourself visit now and then! 3.gif

    jacqulina - Thank you again, Jacky.  I wish you didn't hate my city so much! j/k

    Giligone - Thanks, and you reminded me that I forgot to number my pics, oh well!

    GMT - Hehe thanks!  

    football_fever - Glad you like it!  I like the way that T- intersection turned out - that's the best way I could come up with for that area I guess without making it look too ugly.  

    Pic 11.1 - the sprawl is spreading north...

    The following Bonus is rated R for vulgarity...  of course

    Cletus Browsky's Final Hour!!!

    1.  Cletus Browsky leaves a "floater" in the pool of the Sunchase apartments, where he doesn't even live.  

    2.  After kicking a stray dog, Cletus gathers a pile of bricks and begins to bust out apartment windows and passing cars.

    3.  Cletus smokes rocks with vagrants behind the Exxon, and then goes inside and steals a can of spray paint.

    4.  Cletus steals a small boys bicycle and rides across the street to the El Rancho Mexican restaraunt, where he successfully serves a piece of feces wrapped in a tortilla to a customer.  After a few bites, the customer realizes something is not right with his burrito.

    5.  Cletus Browsky is kicked out of a local strip club for jumping on stage and attempting to hump one of the dancers while grabbing dollar bills from her.

    6.  Browsky walks over to the Chick-Fil-A where he hides behind the drive -thru menu board and urinates in the open windows of patrons as they attempt to order.  He then  flips them off and yells profanities about their respective mothers.

    7.  Browsky then decides to use his stolen can of spray paint to grafitti the steps of a nearby church; where he is struck dead by lightning.  His body is then urinated on by the stray dog that he kicked earlier.

    The suburbs are visually beautiful! I love the houses and the highways.

    Excellent apartment buildings. The fence around the houses is great.

    I will come back for more

    Awe man...another Browsky. Evolution does not like that family, Cletus sounded like the worst of them. In Minneapolis there is a law that a strip club can't be close to a church...I guess this one worked out in God's favor

    My favorite part of this update, even though it was a small detail that no one might have noticed, was that that little apartment complex in 11.7 has it's own subdivision. Just like apartments in real life. I wouldn't have been able to resist the temptation to connect that street to the other road...great stuff

    hahahaha. oooo cletus. His parents should have seen that coming just by giving him that name! hahaha. Oh man, This browsky family should all be locked up! ahaha Good stuff.

    Also, again great work on your city. You have a great selection of custom BATs which adds to the realism as well as makes it original. That church BAT while good really adds a level of realism just because you thought to put it in. I mean, most cities have churches but you never see them in sc4. Keep it up!

    Another fine update. II'll tell ya though, Cletus' family didn't just swim in the shallow end of the gene pool... apparently they marinated in it!

    Methinks the Browsky's live in a giant kegger, because NO GENETICALLY SOUND PERSON should be like that, even when drunk.

    OMG, your road widening project looks amazingly realistic.

    Yeah, I used an overused and cliched abbreviation. Not like me, I know.

    It would be really cool if the widening could actually be with a purpose other than aesthetics and actually yield a six-lane avenue.
