Wow, Springhurst is definitely starting to sprawl. Is that downtown again? It looks very urban.

[2nerdy4u 1]

Fantastic region shots. Great work.

[Mr. Beer 12]

[bighaben 0]

It's unfair that you never got a Trixie.  Gorsh.

[Simworld 056132 1]

I like your CJ =)

[ky72x 13]

Now that has to be one of the most realistic downtown/industrial area I've seen. The layout of the roads, highway, and especially that railroad is simply amazing. Plus, the building choices were excellent; they all blend very well together and fit into this kind of environment quite nicely. I like both region views a lot as well. Keep up the great work, because I sure cannot wait for more!

Very nice work! It'll be good to see what it looks like when it's really sprawling.

[WillG_75 19]

Very nice work!! May I ask where you got the mall and Brick shops under the elevated rail at? I've seen it before but can't find it...

wow man not sure how i've overlooked this one but it's great, realistic and not overdone, this is some quality building, great transmap and great building choices.

[sebbyb07 2]

awesome update! i love your region soooo much! its nice to see a CJer showing off region pics!

[sc4portugal 10]

Very very very nice, you made a really nice city there!

[crazyyaya 4]

Nice job, I would've like a few more pictures, but i really like that mall, it looks very realistic. I love the whole spacey, suburban feel.

Hello, one and... all yes, am I alive!

Sorry I have been absent so long, RL is hitting hard, Ive been going out of my head getting everything back on track. But the main reason I haven't updated in almost two months is my hard drive was cleaned off, all my documents including Sc4 have been erased. For the the past few weeks now Ive been re-building Springhurst as it was before the

crash using only the pictures Ive posted in this thread. Although I haven't had much success, so far Ive built  three or four different variations of Springhurst, but I just cant

seem to find a look I can be comfortable with keeping. Right now I can live with the it (with thanks to tomdapom, Mr. Beer and a few others for some much needed inspiration) and I have a few pictures of my most recent work...

Update 4

ok, so this is the current downtown view, this is the only part that looks like the old region, but improved...

this is the north end of the downtown area, the bridge leads over the harbour, past the seaports and into Springhurst suburbs...

and this is the west end, mostly old industrial warehouses, an old power station, and a lot of run down buildings and such...

I'll have some more pictures in the next week, and maybe a region view, depending on how much work I get in.

creepy. and about these so called 'frequent updates' I'm not making any promises at this point, but I'll try to get as many updates as soon I can now.

dralin321: not gone just yet, and not any time soon I hope.

[tomdapom 79]

This is exactly the same as what happened to my old CJ, Hustle, MI! The new downtown is looking just like the old one, and I really like that bridge. Keep up this fantastic work!

[Mr. Beer 12]

No problems! Nice picture here again! you may plop more parking lot, especially in the downtown area, next freeways exits...

See ya!

[bbfan02 23]

Wow, very nice downtown! It looks very old. I like the flora and the surrounding area.

-bbfan02-

[edmonton_stinks 5]

Wow, that's really too bad to hear. I was wondering where you'd gone...

This update looks great, though. Hopefully you've made a version you like.

[Godzillaman 21]

Dude, you finally updated! I'm seriously amazed! The downtown looks swell. Just wondering, do you have a mod that makes more trees appear on streets? I see this too often now...

Edit: and I see you have nob's rail textures.

[GreekMan 246]

can you please tell me where you got those seawalls?

this downtown is better than the first one!

any tips for someone who wants to make a Canadian CJ?

[ky72x 13]

The fact that you managed to make an already good-looking area look even better after a crash is awesome. Your combination of industrial districts within downtown continues to work very well. Thanks for another excellent update!

[politicman 1]

Great Pictures !!

[KingTitan 6]

Shorelines look fantastic there friend. And that mall i have just downloaded myself.. Dang, that was one download that had the most dependencies i have ever needed. LOL. Your design skills are deely up there with some of the best CJ'ers. Keep up the wonderful updates pal.

[.soapy 127]

Ok then, I got back to work today on the region, after once again demolishing parts of it, and I have an update well on the way, but for now I'll just show you the current state of the downtown area.

Ive added a few new buildings (maxis & custom) and I really like how it looks now, so I welcome you to Springhurst V6.2

Feedback;

tomdapom: Unfortionatly I missed out on your old CJ, its too bad it died before I got to it, but your new one looks really good! thanks for commenting!

Mr. Beer: I took your advise and added a lot of new parking lots all over, and a few underground parking garages in the downtown core. thanks!

bbfan02: thanks! old is the look I was hoping for, I love old historical buildings.

edmonton_stinks: yep, Im very comfortable with the new city, and I hope its to everyone else's likings.

Godzillaman: yep, I use the SFBT street tree mod, and damn do I love it, the same goes for nobs rail textures.

GreekMan: I may have sent you the link in chat, but just in case, click here. and the best way I find to building Canadian themed cities; think American, but cleaner, and build in a more rural setting, since most cities in Canada are surrounded with nothingness good luck!

ky72x: meh, a crash is nothing, its dealing with nothing to work with thats tricky, I could have had so many updates done with at this point, but I guess its for the better.

politicman: thanks a lot!

KingTitan: thanks! and trust me, that mall is worth the amount of dependencies, but I you'll see for yourself. I would probably be a better known CJ'er if I can update regularly, but there is also a lot of competition thanks for commenting!

cheers!

[sEAhAwk fAn121 0]

Toki! That looks like awsome sause! Springhurst (I love that name ) is looking better then ever!

[GreekMan 246]

Thanks! I love your update and I will reinstate you in the fav list!

Also how is Glendale doing?

It is in the middle of nothingness?

looking forward to the next update!

[Equilibria 16]

I like the funky shapes on those piers. It makes them look a lot more like wharves in old cities.
