Update One: Geographical Information

Caiga Island is located approximately 3000 miles south of Hawaii. It has a tropical climate with an annual average temperature of 24 Degrees Celcius. The rainy season is between May and August and the cool season is between December and March. The main feature about this island is that it has many volcanos, some on the surface of water too.

Picture 1.1 - South of the state of Fisse, where new development will begin.

    Nice update.9.gif

    I am going to test out my new CJ Evaluation System on this CJ to see if it works...
     
    Excellent things about this update which should be kept up: Nice use of downloads of which spices up the town.
     
    Passable things about this update which could be inproved: Lack of Rush Hour, get it if you can to make this CJ better.
     
    Bad things about this update which should be inproved: The placement of buildings (the mayors house is side ways on).
     
    Overall Raiting: C- Acceptable/Good.

    Compromise, I like your CJ Evaluation System!! It is a very helpful source for feedback to the author!
     
    Tommygecko: Your little town is nice! It could use some more RUSH HOUR to it like Compromise said... maybe an avenue. But overall it looks like a promising start!

    nice update... not so bad... i like some of the buildings used in here... please do not offer to give away free samples of Maxis property, as this is a copyright infringement and could get you into SERIOUS legal trouble.

Yesterday i have downloaded B.A.T. and now I'm learning how to use it... (it's quite not so easy for me... 47.gif) ... Ok... I'm looking forward for more updates. 16.gif
