Ah, a wonderfuil overview, looks like you have chosen a pretty good terrain set. That mountain pic in the last update looks so realistic. Very, very good. One of the best few updates in Khaled.

EDIT: Woah, woah! jarnomiedema! That really does make my day!

    Sorry for not updating for a while, I've been busy but here is a small update:

    des1.jpg

    des2.jpg

    des3.jpg

    des4.jpg

    Expansion is going to be at a steady rate so I'll be opening it up to other Cj's next time!

    Replies:

    panthersimcity4: Thanks,! I tried to go for a different look in this region instead of the Gulf feel 3.gif

    bokrif:Thanks, glad you liked it, this area is more undeveloped and most residents make a living from farming or industry in the towns, however unemployment is higher than other areas which forces an icreasing amount of people to move to Khaled City or Khobar to look for jobs, Khaledis can usually get an easy job in government but the people in this area are counted by the government as a different ethnic group so its harder for them to find work!

    jarnomiedema:Thanks! how time passes, thanks to the various BATs and mods making a Middle East city is much easier than it was when I first started the Khaled region. and its good to see the signature works heh 3.gif

    Sky Guy:Thanks, maybe, but thre is something fascinating about the chaos of them, there must be more who like slums, after all there are tourist trips offered to some slums in African cities for tourists 3.gif

    penguin007:Thanks, glad you liked them

    tewphoty:Thanks, I'm using 2 different mods, the standard desert one is called the THL terrain pack, the mountain one is a desert one from Capital Simcity website.

    jj88:Thanks, you're not supposed to say who you vote for! 3.gif but I agree I like deserts because you don't have to fill them with farms or trees which takes ages.

    intensivecarebear:THanks, I was trying to go for a different style to contrast, I agree that would be an interesting region for a CJ, lots of history

    suplado!:Thanks! the mountains turned out pretty well

    ilikehotdogsalot:Thanks, glad you liked the mountains

    Godzillaman: Thanks, 'fraid I'm not that expert at terraforming I used a greyscale region of Denver

    KingTitan:Thanks!

    2nerdy4u:Thanks, yes it is divided by terrain I guess, the mountains make travel difficult which makes it hard for the government to control! but also makes a nice contrast from all that sand

    Mikeaut1:Thanks for the comment 4.gif

    Giligone:Thanks, I think there are some areas in Saudi and Yemen that have grass and farms at high altitudes mainly in the South west so its based on a real area 3.gif

    connorc24:Thanks!

    crazyyaya:Thanks for the reply

    jacqulina:Thanks as always 9.gif

    CarmineHilton:Thanks!

    JFman00:Thanks for the comment! fraid I don't know Arabic so this was always going to be a problem, I used Google translator but obviously wasn't very good, but I'm planning to learn Arabic in future at university so hopefully this won't happen in future 3.gif for the sig I was trying to translate the airline name : Khaledia if you could translate it correctly that would be great 3.gif

    Nice, but short update. Is Khaled turning for a more strict society as the governments grip is hardening?


    Good ol' Liberty Islands! Someday, I'll repost my old CJ.

    Yay! Another update! Lots of growth around the airport. Very nice. Problem with congestion? Well, I saw that your RHW had a nice median for part of it which led me think: Monorail!
