That is one impressive construction picture! I really like how closely it resembles the very nice looking development plan. Then again, if it didn't, then the construction manager ought to be fired. 3.gif

The airport project looks great and I like how you've used the old runway for a road. I found this pic which shows a similar place where the old airport runway's been converted to road but the projects in puerto joya are much nicer it seems 3.gif

    Hi guys, sorry for the lack of updates (esp the flight schedule) ive been very busy (and will be busy still ) because im preparing for an overseas trip 4.gif so i might go on hiatus for a while 9.gif but before i go on full hiatus, ive something to share 9.gif

    REPLIES

    mightygoose

    Smarty218 - twas my pleasure to share the tutorial 4.gif

    jacqulina - as always, glad to have you here my friend 4.gif

    bbfan02 - developments coming up! lol 9.gif

    CarmineHilton - thanks for dropping by 4.gif developments are sprouting now, but it wont rival the other CBD, itll be more of the "smaller alternative" 4.gif

    Jaime_ua - nah, demolition of the old airport started after 2 weeks, but the pics are about a few months later 4.gif

    ky72x - thanks 4.gif there could be changes in the final development but itll still be more or less based on the original plan 4.gif

    nihonkaranws- thanks my friend

    truflip99 - soon pare 4.gif ive little time to play SC4 now kasi ill be leaving for singapore this april 3 (so no PC for me for about a month 15.gif)

    Mike the Mayor - thanks, i made a short tutorial for the night effects 4.gif one of the coolest thing about it is, depending on how you are used to it, you could make pics for as short as 5 minutes 9.gif

    frogface - haha thanks for the pic 4.gif yeah i decided that in real life, itd make more sense to make use of the old runway (saves concrete lol)

    DEVELOPMENTS

    so after a year or so of construction, the new business park is starting to take shape 4.gif

    from this

    oldairport.jpg

    i think jawood's mall would look bettter there when it comes out 3.gif no fantastic use of the old runway, my only quibble is the avenue roundabout dead end, it just feels like it should be connected to something.

    Puerto Joya will go on a hiatus for a month 15.gif I am in Singapore now and i dont have a PC here yet. I did bring my region files and my plugins folder with me and will resume CJing and City building as soon as I can..

    the good news though is that, being in a different country (and a very beautiful country it is!) I have new ideas on what direction to take for Puerto Joya.. 4.gif

    Now : Puerto Joya: A global City on the rise

    Soon : Puerto Joya: Singapore's upcoming rival

    lol

    mightygoose -thanks for the tip regarding the mall 4.gif ill look into it once i resume City building 9.gif

    jaime_ua- haha, yeah i didnt notice that one..must have been illegal loggers eh? lol

    Shingure - thanks, glad you liked the planning..its very simple actually, just the airport runway and road transformed into the major avenue and a few minor streets here and there

    pilotdaryl - thanks pare 4.gif singapore lang 9.gif and probably, if i have time, kuala lumpur..I wanna see petronas towers!

    Benedict - thank you so much my friend 4.gif

    suplado! - oi pare! 9.gif close ups soon, i didnt have time to take snapshots before i left 15.gif

    Nice before/after picture of the development at the old airport site. 9.gif Regarding your current situation, at least you have the actual SC4 files. That's really the most important thing. I'm looking forward to the return of Puerto Joya!

    Wow - what a transformation! I think the second pic certainly looks nicer, the mall complex should be amazing when completed.

    Beautiful work there Waway! I don't think I've ever seen a CJ where the author showed his viewers the demolition of an old airport and the construction of new development on top. You've sure made it look realistic too! I love how you used a main street to replace the old runway, it looks really cool! 4.gif Great work, hope to see you back here soon. Looking forward to more from Singapore's next partner! 9.gif

    REPLIES

    hi guys, im really hurting right now as i miss playing SC4 but i cant coz im overseas and i dont have a PC yet..i just got a job here though i havent started yet so id be starting a new life here (hopefully a good one)

    im still looking for my own place since now im still at my friends place..and as much as i want to buy a new copy of sc4 now..im afraid his laptop wont be able to run puerto joya lol

    but anyway, puerto joya's hiatus could end on june at the soonest (my timetable to get a new gaming PC and when my contract for the room ill rent starting this sunday would end)

    i just cant wait to play SC4 again as there are lots of things that ive learned about cities which id like to apply to puerto joya..what a great city singapore is 9.gif so cosmopolitan yet so green and organized

    The Big Z- I cant wait to make new developments too 9.gif lol

    ky72x- yep, i made sure i brought my files with me 9.gif and made 2 backups too...one in my flash drive and another on my friends laptop (but im pretty sure it cant play SC4 esp with puerto joya lol)

    petriknl- yep, redevelopments are more challenging (IMO) than new developments since the choices are more limited (sometimes) glad you liked the redevelpment too,,,thanks

    jacqulina-thanks jaky my friend 4.gif

    Mike the Mayor- thanks mike, regarding the mall, im 90% decided (when i resume playing) that ill make some adjustments..itd be more like orchard road here in singapore than one big mall 4.gif oooh i just cant wait to get back to playing SC4

    nihonkaranws- hi my friend..regarding the runway being used as a road, its not entirely unique though 4.gif not sure about other places/countries, but here in the philippines (wait im in singapore..so let me rephrase that to in the philippines lol) makati's ayala avenue (the philippines wall street) was once a runway (not 100% sure though)

    Smarty218- thanks smarty 4.gif i hope you guys still support this CJ even if its on hiatus 9.gif

    panthersimcity4-thanks for the kind words my friend..yeah i just love it here in singapore...its a city lover's dream city indeed 4.gif

    auckland- i might not be back from singapore, but will be working here lol..but as soon as i get my own place or my own room ill resume playing SC4 (as soon as i am able to afford to setup a new gaming PC though lol) BTW, i just noticed your sig and want to thank you for putting Puerto JOya in it 9.gif thank you so much

    Simfan34- hehe thanks 9.gif
