Yoshiisland - Awsome job!!! MUCH better I knew you could do it kiddo!  You're really on a role now.. keep up the good work! See how persistance pays? I noticed you also know how to make .exe files now too! I'm not trying to request too much but I noticed on the Roadtop Bus lots you asked me to download, it had a feature where you first most plop a certain biulding down, then after a game month, the menu for the actual buslots, subway stops, ect would appear... and would grey out when the biulding is destroyed. I was wondering for your highway signs the present and future ones... if it would be possible to create such a feature as dealing with numerous bats from everyones request inthis CJ and maintain a realistic level is definately going to clog up my menu's... if you cannot then it is fine though.

[Jazzmaster 716]

Well, it'd be a challenge, but I think I could figure that out. I know a tutorial about it, after all!

Need4Camaro;Oh, yeah. It's just he had 2 and a half thousand points, while everyone else had around,or less than 100 points,me saying it was a bit out of porportion. But keep it like that, I'm not a competitive complainer.Thanks for the warm welcome.

yes members by an rich list i mean the cost of what they own

the current money the have and possibly a part of there profit

also i see that on the website you have an investor section wiht the

main investors and i say cilck on name for information will each name

have the property they own

[Benedict 3,119]

@ willg: Sure, that sounds like a good business deal.

@ N4C: Of course you have my permission to upload that to the Blue Hope site. (Any chance of a few extra points to pay the designer? )

[MPTC 0]

N4C in the next picture update could i see the current city limits between Lantia and Truckaway

[willg 0]

and the name of the airport is ... newark lihou international airport

just to let you know the name is inspired by the way they name london airports, london (gatwick,luton,city,Heathrow) airport

[MPTC 0]

willg where are you putting the airport?

and what does lihou stand for

[lilmanjs 2]

when will I be able to see some pics of my rural highway?

[Need4Camaro 50]

Yoshiisland - very well, take your time! Nice mall btw I might want to use it when you're done.

rocketoink - You're welcome!

willg - Ah yes like a top 5... there could be different catagories too, like the top 5 with the most points and the top 5 with the most expensive developments. That can be arranged. It will most likely be shown in the Showcase, but give it a minute as I'm already maxxed out right now trying to get the website together and satisfy requests before the end of this month as I'll go into college and that will cut productivity in half if the website isn't fully functional by then... As for the website...Yes I was going to do that, most of that will be finished after I get the grid / parcels and graphs are into full capacity...

Benedict - Very well, thank you. I'm working on your rail request... for the hell of it I've already biult the main station. I'll be getting you your quote for the portion of line you requested and stations by tomorrow...

MPTC - Yes, and to put it simply, Lantia Parkway acts as the imaginary dividing line between both cities after Lantia Parkway leaves the East/West Connector's terminus...

willg - Cool!

lilmanjs - Tomorrow night.

______________________________

I finished my car mid-afternoon and with a prayer that what I did worked, drove it and it all came out perfectly. Now as for the next update as I know since we havn't had a photo update in a long time, many of you are anxious. I'm going to give you the status of it.

I am but one man and I do have alot I must tend to behind Newark aswell but I promise that those who are patient will see the best pay..

[Jazzmaster 716]

mptc lihou doesn't stand for anything its just a name and it will be east of linton

here is the sign/ logo for the airport

[Benedict 3,119]

N4C, thanks for getting my request in the queue. I actually really like to see the projects update posts - with complete, under construction, pending, in queue etc. I think that it might be helpful to do that regularly, like with the points updates.

And I am very excited about seeing the new downtown station

[lilmanjs 2]

I can't wait to see my rural highway. yoshiisland: how are the signs for the rural highway coming along. also what is the Lantia / Tuckaway City Limits Request?

y did you post that 3 times

[MPTC 0]

and the city limits request is to know where lantia ends and truckaway begins, its just for reference for further construction.

[Need4Camaro 50]

Yoshiisland - Cool, keep me posted!

willg - Nice work, I'll see if it can be included on some of Newarks freeway signs when it is built.

Benedict - That actually may be a nice idea, I'll either start doing it here or the website.

lilmanjs - X3 Brotha

and now... finally for the Update...

_____________________________________

First I want to inform rockettoink that I am still processing your request and I am going to upload the entire parcel for you to view on the website, sorry for the delay but this will prevent me from furthing having to post this Parcel.

Now, let me settle Benedicts request for the rail project so he can get started...

First, here is the Main train station in Downtown Newark, I'm going to wait for you to puchase before handing your deed...

As we can see, the station was able to be biult onto a slope. The biulding that sits above the actual station will be your new headquarters Benedict for managing your railway portions and passenger stations. Congratulations on getting a spot in Downtown. For passengers, there is functional parking conviniently located across the street in which they can access the station from. Once inside, they will be introduced to a small mall environment where there will be ticketing agents, and small restaurants and shopping. Upon proceeding to the actual rails, you will use a series of parralell escalators that proceed downward, leaving ground level into the sunken level. Handicap will beable to use elevators conviniently located on both sides of the biulding. Upon arriving, the platform, while not the largest train station, will be aquadate to accomidate the demands for Newarks Passenger in this area... Lets have a closer look...

What do you think?

Benedict, this will purchase you 100 more tiles of the SSRL and 7 Passenger Stations.

wow thats some road system your building there my friend excellent work

[willg 0]

very good

[KingTitan 6]

Looks good friend.....Im not however a big fan of the custom interchanges cus I have had experienced headaches before from when i did mine....The traffic is slowed by 15 to 20% and creates a HUGE traffic nightmare...maybe yours will be different...maybe it was because of my intersections....? LOL anyhow....I still love it a lot. You put a lot of detail in em.

[Need4Camaro 50]

jacqulina - Thank you!

willg - Thank you!

KingTitan - Thanks, I had no choice but to use custom Interchanges though. The ground highway certainly wasn't going to give me the flexability or freedom to do the kind of things I did with the 202/A2 Tollway. No traffic issues with anything yet but these highways are still relatively new too and were built to replace crowded alaignments of road... (and it worked too)...  Anyway, all the interchanges you see will be replaced with the MIS, if / when it ever comes out.

[Benedict 3,119]

I love your solution for the downtown station - perfect size, style etc. Nice to have some office space downtown, too. I know that higher use of rails incurs higher costs, but presumably more passengers equals higher income??

Anyway, I'd like to proceed with the rest of the planned stations. I'll wait for my next project until they are built

Also, really nice to see you adding your own stuff in!

[Jazzmaster 716]

Looks great, I'm glad my toll booths could be seen clearly and work effectively. And I like your Atlantic Drive project; it's good to see you can enjoy YOUR city by yourself without all of our input!
