The white cliffs and the town have Dover written all over them.

Good luck with the anti-Maxis plans... I still get Maxised periodically, myself ;-)

The Maxis buildings aren't that bad ordinarily, but they are pretty horrible if you're trying to create a British city, cause they're very...un-British. Good luck reorganizing your plugins.

Hehe, don't like Maxis' American houses?

Anyway, great work on the previous update (Dover and Bath), excellent countryside and very realistic cities! I think they're the top-notch of this CJ IMO! I love the British countryside! 36.gif

    I love the queens house, great tree plopping, awesome flora eyecandy - you've got a lot of open space but you've filled it well with trees which most people don't do so great work,

    First of all- thanks to all of you great posters and follwers and newcomers, your posts make this CJ stay alive and well.

    Second, I deleted my entire plugins folder because it was really a mess, and I've started downloading and testing plugins and everything. Hopefully everything should be back to normal soon, or heck! Better than before! I'd also like to announce that I'm working on a new city, but  it won't be done for months!!! I've got lots of work to do and though I do enjoy my job sometimes I hate all the work I have to do 46.gif. Anyway, since I dont like posting without a picture, heres two from that city i'm working on:

    Tell me about it. Unless I plop my commercials, I end up with about 48 Freytag Buildings (pink ones) in my downtowns.

    I'm liking what I see here! Those are some promising shots.

    Great work Callbat. I hear you on the plugins thing. I've got about 2gigs of chaos, haha. I tried using the dat packer, but somehow lost dependencies in the process so had to revert back. Anyway, glad to see things are working better. Oh, and I really like thta city! Its very impressive. 9.gif

    Good try with Dover - I live just down the road from Dover myself.

    Although Dover Cliffs are ALOT whiter and Taller.

    But you have done a much better job at them than I could ever do.

    Well Done

    And I am looking forward to your next Update.

    Happy you've fixed your problem, my Plugins folders are a real mess and I don't have the guts to start over, lol! 2.gif

    Anyway, great work out there, I especially love that row of apartments at the bottom of the first shot. That water pump gives a nice historical look! Nice neighborhoods! 44.gif
