wow, I really like that water mod, in the last picture/mosaic. It goes so well with the port...The whole industrial area looks great, and so does the city, you have a very impressive regionview. Keep up the good work!!!

[Diamond 42]

The region is still alive, even though there isn't that much i can show you at the moment. But i'm working on that .

(i know it's the living mall, but i thought it would also work very well as a modern style parliament.)

[etherian 4]

Excellent city, the port does look amazing! Will be keeping an eye on future updates

[Smarty218 2]

Great work, I really like the terminal!

[WeekendCityPlanner 19]

Loving the terminal.  Is that what he living mall really looks like at night in the game?

[Twenty20 28]

Excellent work, especially the first pics of the city ! and very good terraforming.

Oooooooh, your region shots are very well done!  I love your airport and seaport!  I will definitely be following this one

[Sim_Air 2]

Fantastic work! I just love your ideas and effort; just, add more trees...!

Kidding, take care friend and keep it up!

[s_olah 87]

I love that interchange terminal, it looks very realistic, and it feels real...nice work

[Diamond 42]

s-olah: Thank you!

etherian: Thank you .

Smarty218: Thanks.

Nemesis666: Yes. But i edited it slightly with paint shop pro .

Twenty20: Well, but that city doesn't exist any longer in that form.

thatdamguy: Thanks

Sim_Airt: If you like trees, don't look at the update . Seriously, don't!

I hope you like it rough and dirty . The nothern part of my city looks towars its completion. Reason enough to show some pictures. Sometimes relative wealth and poverty get pretty close to one another in this area. Often closer than the relativly weathly people like to, because they don't just have a highway in their backyard, but also a huge amount of low wealth houses. But i guess the people who live in them would be the least to complain if they would get nicer looking houses - as long as they can afford them.

In the northern part above the harbour a lot of heavy industry can be found, that consumes greedly the oil shipped in. All have to work in shifts, and the factories never sleep at all - there's always tons of work to do. No place for astmathics or tree-hugging conservationists. On the second picture on the right you're able to see the harbour's part for shipping cars, although there have already been complains that the entire paint was washed from the new cars by sour rain .

There's an highway leading from the south to the nord und it's the most important arterial road. Every day thousands of workers travel over it. I changed it a little. The first picture shows how it looked like in the first place, and the second how it looks now after its makeover. You can expect those trees to resist the immense pollution much shorter than the workers who produce it.

Even at night the region doesn't catch its breath. And in dime light, workers continue to work for the rise of their nation, th

nice update. i like that suburban area that was cut with the highway and the rail. it looked soo cool. and that industrial area is realistic. very oil dependent...sounds very familiar...

[Diamond 42]

jjune4991: Thank you! I always appreciate it, if someone likes my creations .

Actual, it's not an update at all, but i think it's still worth to be posted. Today i added some custom lots to my airport to get some activitiy on the run- and taxiways. When i was finished, i made a screenshot and edited it slightly:

(click picture to enlarge)

[Diamond 42]

Well, this time i got a few more pictures, although it's not that much at all. At the moment it's quite boring, because i zone most of the time and click every building to activate preservation. Also i try to break the grid of SC4, i think it works out quite well, but what do you think? .

overview / transportation map

Everything gently built into the slope, as always. This time it's W$-Residential. The second picture shows a part of the new city district, where i tried to get away from SC4's grid. No gaps at all, but it takes some time to get used to those "wobbly"-roads.

Again some more industry, this time manufacturing. All the buildings grew that way by themselves, i hadn't to use the bulldozer like i usually have to. The other building isn't there by mistake, but to break the symmetric and monotony. The second picture shows some heavy industry with pipelines and also the quite nice nightlights of maxis' industrial buildings.

[jjune4991 1]

very cool. i like the look of your region! and the district is cool. the wobbly roads make this cj like no other. great job! oh, and i cant wait to see that airport! o and question, is veritas your region? or that large city tile?

[Benedict 3,119]

This cj is a gem! You've got some beautiful screenshots, and I love the editing you do. It is obvious that you take a lot of care and time with your building - great to see.

[Diamond 42]

jjune4991: Veritas is the biggest city of the region, but is bigger than a city tile. in fact, it will span around more than 10 tiles when it's finished (might take a while ).

You can already have a look at the airport, i posted a huge (!) mosaic of it in the "show us your airport!" thread. It consists of approx. more than 50 seperate pictures all pasted together. Here you are:

After it's finished loading you will just see a white screen. That's because you are in the upper left corner of the picture. Start to scroll and explore!

Benedict: Thank you

[Bombshoo 3]

I really really like your city. Its very realistic, but entirely original at the same time. I can almost see being there.

[jjune4991 1]

OH MY GOSH!!!!!!!!! THAT IS ONE HUGE AIRPORT! it's kinda funny though, b/c this was the first mosaic where i could actually see the box in the top screen of each photo ! and that is going to be a large city. great job!

[WeekendCityPlanner 19]

Hey, you read my mind. I have a large city made of many tiles, the grand city of Megatropolis(copyrighted by me). That's one large airport.

[Diamond 42]

jjune4991: Thank you once again . Yes, it depends how i pasted the pictures together. In certain areas you can see them all over the picture, in other parts there aren't any. I already added some of tabi's plane props to the airport to achieve a greater variety, and also made some custom lots. But that also showed some flaws my airport has.... Fortunately that taxiway is only leading to the small military airport what i plan to redo, so i bulldozed the A380 on taxiway-lot.

Bombshoo: Thank you very much . I try to put a massive efforts in building a as realistic city as possible. Seems like i'm on the right track .

Nemesis666: Thank you.

I continued a bit today, but not enough for an update, but i like this picture pretty much and wanted to show it:

[The Big Z 103]

Wow! This is an amazing CJ! The way you use the RHW is awesome. The refineries are so realistic! I can't wait to see more!

[Cypherus21 0]

Wow, that's got to be the largest seaport in Sim world.

[Sky Guy 163]

wow, great job, keep it up!

[lucky7 73]

Very good work with the airport, I like it a lot! Looking forward to more,

lucky7

[luker91 0]

this is amazingly good! both your port and airport are very well concieved and i really enjoy seeing the little knicks and knacks that make your city perfect from both a functional and asthetic point of view! keep it up!

[Diamond 42]

The Big Z: Thank you . If the RHW would just be displayed at the transportation map! I would be so happy if it would be possible.

Cypherus21: Maybe, who knows? At least it's the largest one i've ever built. But in realitiy that would still be a tiny (!) seaport.

Sky Guy: Thank you .

lucky7: Also thanks to you .

luker91: Thank you. I have to admit that sometimes it's really hard to make realism, functional and asthetic ends meet ("what do you mean by my citiziens are drowning in garbage? I don't care! Now grow over there you stupid **** building! No, not THERE!" I love this game *g*.

Well, now let's have a look at the new stuff. I haven't commented it in any way. I leave it up to your imagination what certain districts are for and what their history is. Also, this time i post all pictures right into the thread. Please give me feedback if you would prefer it this way or you rather have the thumbnails.

Also, i won't post any region shots for long time i guess - there's a reason for that *g*. Surprise.

[Diamond 42]

Some new shots, also with applied PSPP. (Paint Shop Pro Patch .)

[xlchrisij 0]

Wowah. Page 1 doesn't look attractive. I almost wanted to leave. But when you enter page 2 it looks awesom! Great photoshop and great pictures. Luv it!

[NMUSpidey 3,956]

Wow, those last two pics above are just great. Your photo editing is very, very good. Nice work on this cj.
