Despite that appalling page flip bug... WELCOME TO PAGE THIRTY TWO (32)!

I just love the third picture (personally, I like the steepness). The observatory pic ain't that bad either with all those nice trees.

    Hey everyone! Here is part 9 of 9 showing the last part of Highfield!

    Well, here it is folks! The end of the long series of updates showing Highfield. In this update, you will see even more suburban expansion and a few commercial areas. So, if you have any comments, questions, or tips for me, please, dont hesitate to tell me. I hope you enjoy this finally of Highfield

    Important: I should announce that I have been very busy all of a sudden in the past few days and it looks like it will be staying that way until at least friday. I apologize if I dont get to reply back to your cj's.14.gif

    Excellent finale update for this long series! I liked the section of the avenue that turns to one-way road for a bit in the first few shots. Other highlights of the update were the nice line of civic buildings, the trails, and the winding road in the very last picture. Even though I really enjoyed seeing Highfield, it's going to be nice to move on to another city. Looking forward to see what's next!

    First of all, thanks for the comment as usual. The next city is the opposite of Highfield. It has a downtown by the sea and suburbs in the hills. Cant wait to show the first of many updates showing the new city. I will release the name and an intro on tuesday.

    Some very very steep looking inclines there! Some sections of the wilderness trail look like they'd have your nose scraping the ground even though you'd be standing upright 3.gif Nevertheless, it still looks like a nice place.

    Nice update, I like your use of the Peg trails and more nice, but hilly, residential areas. People must get a lot of exercise walking up and down those hills through the neighborhoods. 4.gif Reminds me of some of the hills in the town where I went to college.

    Nice-looking downtown you've got there. Don't forget to turn off the UDI icons, though.

    Meh, the night pics do nothing for me. That beach also looks a little odd.

    On the last update, I love the way the hills are under your control.

    I don't think that this teaser is bad, I just think that this CJ happened to be bumped to Page Two quickly. Unfortunately, this does happen pretty often, you just really never know when.

    Hmm, Modesto, eh? I know of a city named Modesto here in California. It's a fairly large city, but nothing compared to your metropolis. A few skyscrapers look out of place (ex: the one with the yellow lights in the first pic) and the beach looks kinda funky, but otherwise this was a pretty good teaser. Keep up the nice work! 9.gif

    Hey everyone! Here is update 1 of 6 showcasing the new city, Modesto!

    First off, I apologize for the bad teaser (shown by the replies) and I included a few corrections recommended. First, I replaced that skyscraper because of the night lights with another building that fits in better. Also, I finally got to add some parking by that football stadium in Highfield. In this update, you will see the southern and middle of Modesto's downtown. This is a short 11 picture update. So, if you have any comments, questions or tips for me, please, dont hesitate to tell me. I hope you enjoy this update!

    City population: 335,00

    City info: Modesto's downtown center lies on flat seaside land. The suburbs and the mid-rise commercial area lies at the base of the valley, and the rural suburbs are hidden on rugged mountains overlooking the city's limits.


    The next 5 pictures below: Modesto's southern and middle downtown area at night.

    The_Hutt- Thanks and I will remember to take that off.

    Nemesis666- Sorry, but I glad you liked the neighborhoods.

    Ky72x- Thanks! I hope that improvement on both the skyscraper and the parking is better.

    Jacky- Thanks much!

    I am not going to have an update until wednesday. So, see you then!

    I like the buildings in Modesto. They particularly have a lot of character at night.

    Great improvements to downtown! The new skyscrapers are very nice replacements for the previous ones. Plus, I like all of that parking you've (finally) 3.gif added to the stadium in Highfield.
