lilmanjs - That won't be too hard, I'll have it momentarily... Did you and Houston_Fan come to terms about what was going to happen at Tuckaway Highway?

willg - Here is the pricing information for your second development... 

Expenses
Cost for Roads	58
Cost for Residential	212.1
Cost for Commercial	69.3
Cost for Industrial	0
Cost for Parks

[willg 0]

the 1st is auringy city

and the 2nd is greater coutils

[lilmanjs 2]

houston_fan hasn't talked to me in a while so I have no clue what he wants to do.

[Shingure 56]

Ok. I selected C3 Parcel 20. 

I named it Turner Station after my Great grandmother's Place of Birth. But I call it plan C6

[Zarp 0]

when will you post the pictures of my farm? ;~~~

[Need4Camaro 50]

willg - Done

lilmanjs - Darn I havn't heard from him either, speaking of I'm also looking for MPTC...

Shingure - Okay, that will be quick and easy, give me a day...

Zarp - Right now... 

__________________________________________________

First off, the story has been updated again and can be viewed HERE ...It is still uploading, I posted at 3:07 A.M. ... Try waiting until 5 A.M. on Wednesday Morning before trying to load it if it doesn't work on th first try....

I highly suggest watching it as some of the updates are also there... ..It does have sound...

_______________________________________

Secondly... you can now request RCI Demand Stats to aid with your development planning ... RCI Demand Stats for a Parcel costs 50 Points and will be private messaged to you... This is to help you plan your developments as some developments arn't really becoming what they should due to the lack of their demand...For example, currently everyone is biulding bed and breakfast areas while the industrial economy has been the one booming since this CJ has begun.... ... Eventually this information will be posted on the website and update regularly free of charge but until I can find and maintain the time it take to do it, this is a suitable alternative..

_______________________________________

Finally, Third - I am going to work on a portion of the website in which you can continuesly view your most up to date development, a photo will be taken of it every week. It costs 50 Points per photo and must maintain for a month term without any changes... Anyone who's interested, feel free to say so...

_______________________________________

 I want to congratulate and present WillG with his deeds and developments. 

The expansion of the Coutils Estates community located off of Tuckaway Highway, we present to you... Greater Coutils!

And...

Auringy City, the Centra of Millidgeville...

Here is your deed...

______________________________________

Zarp you're next...

Zarp continues his quest by expanding his farms into branches, or a giant plantation. Will Zarp become Soni's next Arch Rival?

and Zarp, here is your deed...

The fall of Sean has attracted many more foreig Industries... Just to name a few off of Lantia Parkway...

[Benedict 3,119]

Great update!

[KingTitan 6]

The farming area is looking quite well there Need4Camaro

Wait to see more progress. Great stuff friend. ")

[Shingure 56]

Okay Very nice development of the industrial sector. Hopefully the economy is booming.

I forgot)... but yeah thats where I got the name and they resemble each other as both are located in the middle of nowere lol... ...Where are you located?quote>

I live in a suburb of Atlanta, but currently I'm a student in Georgia Tech Oo commute from Conyers to Athens every day? Sounds like fun lol

[Need4Camaro 50]

Benedict - Thank you...

KingTitan - Thanks... there's more to come

Shingure - Thank you and for the most part it's okay... The demand is mostly for the R$ and C$ developments...

willg - The entire video didn't transfer through due to space concerns which I am currently working out so noone saw quite the entire thing... or atleast I don't think... but the new Seaport was shown at the very end... You can purchase it if you desire, I have nothing against it I just wanted to biuld it first because I needed to rescape the land in the area. You are also free to biuld another seaport in a location of your choice...

The Arrowz - At the time I was doing it, it costed $15 a Day. I so badly wished there was a direct freeway there but I no longer do it... Instead I've gotten crazier and I now commute to Alpharetta to College from Stockbridge, that means I deal with the worst sectors of traffic in Atlanta on a daily basis while commuting roughly the same miles... and yes... it still costs me atleast $15 a day to pull it off... ... But I'm moving closer to there very soon... ...What is your major?

[Need4Camaro 50]

Story Update 5 was reuploaded into the bluehope CJ website, Beggining now is a new chapter in the story and with that, all previous Videos have been compiled into a Zip and uploaded into a different server for space reasons... I highly suggest rewatching Story Update 5 as it did NOT show the new harbor in the end as it does now...

Small but Important Update... 

Story Update 5 never completed its upload and thus noone saw the ENTIRE movie, because of this... I have relocated the videos into a more abundant server... The website will remain where it stands... 

READ THE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY FOR THE PREVIOUS VIDEOS!!!

The older videos have been compiled into one compilation in a Zip File... They include

The East/West Connector

The 202/A2 Video

Story Update 3

Story Update 4

(Story Update 5 will remain at its current location for now as it is new)

You will need to DOWNLOAD these movies in order to watch them... 

YOU WILL NEED WINZIP!!! Windows Zip Utility Extractor will NOT work because I had to divide the Zip Files into 22 Megabyte Incraments (the Server will not accept anything larger than 25 MB's per file)...

Now follow these instructions carefully.. ...First, download ALL of the zip files from the list below... DO NOT EXTRACT THE PRIMARY ZIP FILE FIRST... FIRST You will need to Extract the Zip1 through Zip11 files into the directory the Primary Zip is contained in... this will release the files the Primary Zip file will extract... ...Afterward... Unzip the Primary Zip File and it should put the file together.. and the videos will be inside...

Primary Zip

Zip1

Zip2

Zip3

Zip4

Zip5

Zip6

Zip7

Zip8

Zip9

Zip10

Zip11

Zip12

I suggest re-watching story update 5 to see the new seaport...

Also soon I'm going to edit the first page of this CJ to make it more user friendly and possibaly release the first few story updates in a Video Format...

I'm also contemplating on implementing the "Download the Parcel and Edit it yourself" as an Express Update Featur

[lilmanjs 2]

that was a good update but what happened to the expansion of my city Tuckaway?

[Need4Camaro 50]

lilmanjs - It's in queue for the next Update along with Shingure's development... ...I can't possibaly fulfill everyones request at once especially with college and RL pretty much monopolizing my time... ...When I prepare updates I have to gather everyones information, photos long before I post it... Meaning if you give me information regarding your development after I have collected a batch for an update... It will have to wait until I collect the next batch because if it didnt then the current batch could practically wait infinitely before I posted it (people continueing to send requests while I'm compiling the update) so I have to divide them up... Doesn't mean I'm ignoring your request, it just means that I'm fitting it into a time slot in which I can conviniently convey it in...

[lilmanjs 2]

ok I was just wondering. thanks for the info. what ever happened to the grand tour videos that you were going to make? if you are still going to make them could the Tuckaway(city and highway) videos have songs from xerxes? xerxes-music.com is the link.

[Need4Camaro 50]

lilmanjs - Waiting to see who wants their city or development included as noone has seemed to respond to that offer... it costs 100 points per development / city you want me to feature and yes I can use your music...

[lilmanjs 2]

I would love to spend the 100 points for the city of tuckaway and another 100 points for the Tuckaway highway. if any changes are made to tuckaway highway and I wanted an updated video would I have to spend 100 points again for another video or what?

[Mr. Monorail Man 3]

Please, tell me the link where I can get the turn lane for SC4 please. IT JUST LOOKS COOL+LIFE-LIKE!!!!!

[Need4Camaro 50]

lilmanjs - Very well, I need atleast 3 more tour requests before I innitiate the grande tour video... As for your inquiry about the area changing after the video is released,  it will have to wait until a new grande tour because development is happening far to rapidly to keep the videos up to date... Even the East/West connector video is about 50% out dated from its release point and it was released in November...

Mr. Monorail Man - To get the turning lanes, you have to install NAM (Network Addition Mod)... It's an optional option to install... NAM can be found easily in the Mods section... (I use Avenue and Road turning lanes)

_______________________________________________

Time for an Update...

First off... YOU MAY ALL NOW REQUEST POLICE/FIRE STATIONS IN YOUR DEVELOPEMENTS - Soni unlocked them by defeating Sean.

_____________________________________

The Newark Grand Tour Video Has Begun!!!

You can request to have your development added to the Grande Tour Video for 100 Points per development, city, ect... I require a minimum of four developments before it will be published... Currently we have ONE participant...

Here's the list 

lilmanjs	Tuckaway
	Tuckaway Highway

If you're interested, just drop a message and I'll add you to the list...

______________________________________

Finally, a VOTE!

Auringy City has become the Hub for Millidgeville, much like a downtown sector however the development has spawned and broken ground on an awkward portion of Highway 304 leaving the access point to the East/West connector, miles away making for hard commutes too and from Downtown Newark... ..Some basic Civil Engineering hopes to resolve this issue by locating an Exit Ramp for Auryingy city (Downtown Millidgeville) just north of the town on a local road... Civil Engineers have evaluated the possible options for a Stage 1 Interchange and requests the public oppinion to determine the best possible solution...

Option A

No relocation of the Railroad will be necesssary, The East/West Connector Eastbound lanes will be relocated and the entire freeway will be diverted over an overpass over the exit... The ramps will exit and merge from the center...  This will mean traffic will be forced to merge and enter from the left...This will change should this portion become Interstate Standard...

Option B

Standard simple Diamond Interchange which will require little modificatin to the surrounding area... Eastbound Lanes will be rebiult closer to the Westbound Lanes, possibaly eliminating the Island altogether...

Option C

The diamond will remain, loop around ramps will provide Exit from the Eastbound Lanes and entrance to the Westbound Lanes... Westbound lanes will offer a speedup period during entry... Railroad to be slightly relocated... No modification to the East/West Connector.

Nice update. For the highway thing i vote option C. oh an btw, can i get a closer look at parcel 3? And I havent been here a while--whats this whole deal with companies?

[KingTitan 6]

I vote C also. Great updates N4C. Look forward to more friend.

[Need4Camaro 50]

Greenbean418 - Thank you... ...You've definately been missing for awhile as alot of the procedure has changed mainly to make things less time consuming and easier on my part... ...For your request of Parcel 3... from now on when you want to see a Parcel and its grid images ANYWERE in Newark .. 

#1. go to http://bluehopecityjournal.w00ty.com 

#2. Select "Start Developing"

#3. I'll trust you know how to keep things civil so select "I have read the Rules - CONTINUE"

#4. When it loads, all of Newarks Parcels will be displayed... you may select which Parcel you want to see from here...

#5. Select the Grid Coordinate or Coordinates you're interested in starting your developement in.

#6. Right click the image and select "Save Picture As"

#7. Plot your development...

#8. Save your image and upload it to a Photobucket or Imageshack account... 

#9. When it's finished, post the image here in this thread with your key and instructions... 

I will no longer post grid images of Newark for development purposes... all images must be downloaded from the website... 

Since it's been awhile, I also highly suggest you go back and watch the storyline videos...

With Companies, they exists to help organize developments basically... one company could be focused on making one kind of development while another would be focused on another development... ...A transportation company would be more likely to create a Highway than an Residential Developer... and a user can have multiple companies and his points divided between them... basically it's organization...

n4c i have started a new harbour in parcle 20 will it be posiblre to replace the briges to let ships on to the port

[Need4Camaro 50]

willg - Where in Parcel 20? Is it off of the Oconee River? If so, the bridges there are already high enough to allow ships to pass.. Civil Engineering was smart enough to prepare for the future... Speaking of bridges... you reminded me of something

Proposal... Access from Linaton to Auringy?

Currently, There is no access between Auringy and Linaton besides taking a long drive across the Oconee River via North Bridge just north of Eaton... This means Linaton has no access to The East/West Connector until Downtown Newark... The commute could be vastily shortened should a bridge crossing the Oconee River be completed... It would leap over the Oconee between Linaton and Millidgeville and complete its course to Auryingy city and provide access to the E/W Connector at the proposed Exit... Should this bridge be biult?

[Shingure 56]

There is a link to the full resolution image , Anyway Im going to Expand Tuner Station , It just seems too tiny.

[Need4Camaro 50]

Shingure - Very well, I'll get that done hopefully by this weekend... Things are going hard and slow for me at the moment but I should have it soon.

[Shingure 56]

Okay , Even though right now I'm home suffering from a howling cold. I will keep a look out.

Maybe Tuckaway Transport could give a go with that, since it is our division of business and probably in our budget, (even if I have to add more points).
