*clears throat* Hello. This is my second cj. I'm happy to start it and I hope you like it.

Bob Newbie, the famous character of The Sims 2 is well known although he has never acomplished anything great. He was just a normal person until...  he went crazy and tried to swim from England to Canada! At the middle of his journey he found a huge island which he hadn't been expected to find, so he took out his map( a little wet though) and saw that the island wasn't there! After some days he managed to start buildind a civilization in this beautiful mediterranean island. 

Here's a map of the world so you can see wher the island is (brown circle):


here's a satelite image of minru island:


This is the place where development starts:


If you're liking it please tell me. Big update tomorrow!  

*NOTE: The Minru Island cj is possible by: Imageshack® - online media hosting.*

Wow no replies to answer today. anyway, I need a new page for my update 3 because it won't fit on this one so here's a little teaser of the next update. Please comment so I can get a new page! 

Thank you

[Abc987 3]

Wow, fantastic job! I feel like this is the way Sim City was meant to be played, if you know what I mean.

[un1 41]

I like this alot!!! I sure that this will turn out great!!

[manubeas 0]

replies!!!!!! and also to help me reach my next page hehe:

jrhnemo: It's very exciting playing sc4 the right way as you said. It gives you the feeling that you're actually building a city and not just zoning all high dense and waiting for it to grow.

un1: As always, thank you for always supporting me on my cj's.

[Streetwise 3]

I like how you use a variety of graphics showing the location and geography of Minru Island. That greyscale image is real good.

You've got a good start!

[Cobra_nVidia 30]

Ooo I like the hospital

Minru Island is growing! I'm sure it will be a metropolis in no time!

[nihonkaranws 88]

Awww that kitty is the cutest... Beautiful work!

[manubeas 0]

woooooow!!! I'm so amazed by the number of comments I'm getting. Quick replies again!

Streetwise: Thank youuuuuuu!

Cobra_nVidia: I do hope it turns into a great metropolis. I would really appreciate if you kept watching my cj.

nihonkaranws: I'm very glad you liked the kitty

[jacqulina 162]

lucky7 I'm very glad my cj is being interesting to you. I will obviously make more development.

[manubeas 0]

I guess I'm not getting my new page so I'll just do a little update here.

First I would like to say I already have 44 photos more for this city and then I will start doing another city in the same region.

The new city starts to develop fast because of the high school:

Fire!!!!!

medium density residential:

and the main side:

Commute time continues under 27 min. The best commute I've ever had.

New residential area and bridge:

[Evillions 552]

Wow! Aonther CJ by manubeas! Great job on your CJ! You might want to add some more custom content like Simgoober's because the city is good and all but just press G while in game to take the grid because no one puts on their CJs. Well cheers!
