Sakhaliyan Peoples Republic

[BurroDiablo 222]

Well... I'm tidying up Khabarovsk right now for 'public viewing'... I spend alot of time at a low viewpoint getting all the details down, and, when I zoom back out again theres usually some huge ugly building built elsewhere where wich needs to come down.

I've learnt my lesson from too many crashes so i'm saving often now, there's niot too much lost, although, when I re-installed my game all the tree's id planted over grass had dissapeared... so the city looked a little bare... i'm re-planting them though.

-Request-

I've been studying Communist and old Russian style cities and architecture and theres alot of 'Diagnalness' in buildings.

If anybody know's where I can get some Diagonal Apartment buildings id be very greatful!

Anyway... some replies-

Schulmanator- Yeah, it was hard work... I could have worked some people to death for dramatic effect but I chose not to over all the Legal implications that killing people has...

Penguin007-  Thanks! But i'm afraid the Nuclear disaster Ship has sailed my friend... look at the Siberian Finale and you'll get what I mean

Amerikaner- Heh, thanks... there's plenty of action going, yep, i've set myself some pretty large projects (most iv'e not mentioned yet )... I dunno how i'm gonna pull all my plan's off but i'll give it a try obviously... wouldn't be a CJ without trying

Kant01- Hope you come back for more! The next update will be big one

Manman99- Thanks! The update shouldn't be too long, I don't like keeping people waiting...

[BurroDiablo 222]

[2ch.net simplayer 180]

[koekie01 3]

Your teaser looks very good! I can't wait to see a new update!

Take care and be safe,

[Za 164]

Ooohhh, a communist one!

First time I've seen this & it looks interesting. Good teaser.

[BurroDiablo 222]

Gah... I was very close to updating but unfortunately... i'm moving house.

I've taken my PC to peices and its packed away (i'm on my brother's just now), we most likely won't be moving for another few weeks yet, but at the moment, i'm pretty busy.

I'll unpack my PC sometime this week and give you an update to ponder over while I'm away... when I get into my new house the Internet, obviously, won't be connected straight away so It may take another few  weeks before I can update again

Acctually, i'll probably set my PC back up again tomorrow, you never know

[jacqulina 162]

looking forward to that update my friend

[Cleaner475 150]

I'll look forward to that update but that was a nice teaser pic, can't wait for the latest development

[BurroDiablo 222]

OLD UPDATE - SAKHALIYAN CAPITIAL NO LONGER LOOKS AS EAST-GERMAN AS THIS... thankfully.

- El Burro [15 March 08]

UPDATE 2.0 - KHABAROVSK [sTARYGOROD DISTRICT]

Welcome back my Comrades! Today I shall give you a tour of Khabarovsk Workers Capital of the Sakhaliyan State! More specifically... the Starygorod District.

Khabarovsk sits in the Amur Valley between the Amur Hills in the West and MT. Davidov in the east. To the west we also have the Amur River wich runs to the west of Khabarovsk, most City Development has been on the Eastern plain of the River... Bridges these days are costly and there is no room for cutting corners... or somebody is bound to loose an eye or something.

The main Government buildings are situated here in the 'Starygorod Kremlin', Starygorod means 'Old City', because thats what it is... the Old part of the city.

The Parliment is the centre of Sakhaliya's Government, the front courtyard is subject to a Daily Parade by the 'Utopian Guards', an elite bunch of soldiers who have shown extreme mentality during combat. Basically, the most insane of the Elite.

An overview of the Kermlin show's the layout. To the Right we have the Chamber of Enterprise and to the Left we have the Chamber of Industry... you'll understand if you read the WIKI...

In the old part of the city, as we can see here, is 'Saint Vabka's' Cathedral as well as the Sakhaliyan History Museum, Starygorod Continental Market, the MASSIVE 'Byataar' Office tower wich holds all the Pen Pushers and finacial people who deal with dishing out the Wages to the Workers and giving Tax money to the Administration.

The Tower is seriously overcrowded and recently we completed construction on its sister, the 'Zstyaslav'; a smaller, bluey green frog like building.

Also in Starygorod is the wierdly shaped Workers Union building...

The City Hall...

And the Headquaters 1st-Class Industry Commissar, Mikhail Plyetov-

We'll... thats about all the info on the Starygorod you need... next time, we'll move onto the more 'Worker' friendly parts of the City...

Dasvidanya!

Stefan Makomov - 3rd Commissar of the Red Ner

[2ch.net simplayer 180]

That is just about socialist............or utopian communist

When there are enough number of visual resources (pics), I will make a massive propaganda film with grand Red Army Chorus!

[koekie01 3]

AMAZING!!!

I like it very much! It lokks very comunistic  . But which rail and terrainmod do you use?

Take care and be safe,

Koekie

[jacqulina 162]

awesome my friend,excellent canals and walkways,the planning and layout is fantastic,awesome work and pics

[Schulmanator 5,813]

5 red stars for this one!

Great update-- you have the look spot-on!

[penguin007 27]

Wow great update I like the overview looks very russian

Will

[Benedict 3,119]

Excellent update - St Vabka's cathedral looks incredible!

[jayo 44]

JAW DROPPING!

ok i don't make so much short comments but this one deserves it

[BurroDiablo 222]

MiniUpdate & Replies 2.00a - Consolodated Embassies

Some strange News came my way today... apparently the Workers Construction Commission has announced the Consolodation of ALL American (North, Central and South) and European (East and West) Embassies, including some Admin space into TWO twin Ulra modern Office Blocks in the Embassy district. Its sits just to the right of the Russian Embassy and the Chinese Embassy.

APPARENT PROMO SHOT PRESENTED TO THE EMBASSIES

[Edit- lol, I misspelt 'Embassy'... damn my eyesight!]

According to the 'NEW YORK TIMES'-

'The Towers are said to be a show of 'Good Faith' to the America's and Europe in a bid to halt the many outcries of its proposed Mass Collectivism program. If the program succeed's, the P.R.S could decend into a new kind of Stalinsim, leading to the possible Ethnic cleansing and Militarization of the Communist State.'

Ah... New York Times... alway the ones to stray slightly off Topic...

2ch - Oh, sounds nice! I'll try and get some better Communisty pic in for that, at the moment Premier Buriya's Propaganda budget is quite low so there isn't much in the way of Leninist Banners and Giant red Stars, but it IS increasing! Sooner or later there will be a Sakhaliyan Propaganda boom

Koekie01- Thank you! Its not the most communist looking update but that'll change with time. I think I used the Terrain Climates Mod and  as for the Rail textures, i'm sure they're by NOB but I can't seem to find a link anywhere, wich is weird. I'll post if i do.

Jacqulina- Thank you! I do take my time with the parks, i've been told Russian cities have alot of open park land and, in my later updates, you'll see i'm trying to recreate that feeling

Schulmanator- Thanks... its hard finding Russian looking things to put in my cities, the Cathedral is from Germany I think... acctually, most of the buildings are German. I think East Germany is the closest thing to Russia I have at the moment, lol.

No worries... i'm starting to BAT again... its time consuming but at least i'll have some original stuff!!

Penguin007-  Thanks, glad you liked it. Its not nearly detailed enough to give you the full picture though, heh.

Benedict- Yep, its an amazing Bat, we have to Thank Debussyman for that one!

The Real thing ^

Jayo- A short comment is better than no comment. Thanks for Commenting!

Erdmoebel has released a BAT of the Frauenkirche years ago but debussyman's new BAT is way more detailed ...

And about moving: a German paraphras says three times moving house is like one time burning down the house ...

Great urban shots. My memory may Trick me but I remember  East berlin (1985) in these grey colors ... I cannot find anything to nag on but just enjoyed these shots!

Take care and make backups!

Bernhard

[Giligone 10]

Wow, you've attained a new level of realism with this city. It blows my mind. Particularly in your transport system. Unbelievable.

[koekie01 3]

Where can I find your city hall?

Take care!

Koekie

[BurroDiablo 222]

The past few days have been quite interesting. In order to take our CJ's up a notch in realism , me and Glenni have been working closely making various 'Russian' prop and Bats because, to be honest, there isn't much out there.

Now, Glenni as you already know, is one of the BlaM batting heroes, so you can imagine the quality of the stuff he's creating. Me, however, i'm just starting out... i've been slowly learning the BAT and 3DsMax over the past for months (well, I got 3Ds last week but it aint much different).

I'm only at liberty to show you the stuff i've made/lotted.. its not much but its progress -

Those of you who played STALKER or who acctually live in Russia, Ukraine or pretty much any Bloc country, will know that Communist Villages are quite... well... crap. Never too far away from some kind of massive Factory or rusty line of Fuel Tanks.

A 3 Barreled Tank? Why? Well... why not? This is just a statue... nothing major. Looks Funky, lol.

COOLING TOWERS OF THE WORLD UNITE!! Oh... your all here... good. Simple, but useful in Industrialized countries. However... due to a rendering problem, i'm gonna have to re-do these... there seems to be a hole in the side of them

EVERY Russian City has one of these... I think... a massive Concrete welcome sign. Welcomes have never been so hostile!

^That ones my Party piece

Ah, well...its not much but it something. I'm working my butt off trying to make some decent lots... we should have something soon, fingers crossed

Why the HELL do I have 7 Fingers?...

... oh... Siberia...

Nardo69 - Yep, East Berlin seems a close to Russia as I can get at the moment... but i'm working on it... plenty of Custom low wealth lots should do the trick.

Giligone - The transport system is uniquely Sakhaliyan (They tend to skip the design process and just build whatever comes to their mind). Glad you enjoyed it... it should get more realistic with age

Koekie01 - The City Hall is one of NOB's creations... http://tokitoko.hp.infoseek.co.jp/lot_landmark.htm ... I'd give you a direct link to the download, but theres a few more awesome BAT's on that page you might want

[jacqulina 162]

yes i have heard that too i cant wait to see your recreation,excellent work and pics,i like the villages you have made my friend

[penguin007 27]

Those villages are great and could be great for slums if someone wanted to make a LEDC cj. The batting is very good also

Will

[2ch.net simplayer 180]

What does it exactly say on the concrete "welcome" sign?

That village is so realistic!!! Good job with the coop with Glenni :-)

[homeandaway 1]

Welcome back mate!, its great to see you up and about! LOL

OMG! - thos cooling towers are more than stunning!....

[Schulmanator 5,813]

Great teaser! You have me intrigued about your update!

[Simfan34 11]

Ameripean embasssy? Can my country be in it? Great updates so far.

[waldner 0]

Wow! So nice!
