and gals are interested in performing as such.

This will give you the power to influence in which
direction the cities develop. Well not completely
but a good deal.

If interested please send me a PM with your thoughts.

Hey man. Sorry that no one replied to this. Sounds cool and all, but I really think you should post some pics right from the start. Good luck with your CJ!

Hello, All.

Map This! - Cartography Services has completed creating and rendering the Koyama Island map for kingofblades and is in the process of releasing this map to him.  Once the map is accepted, Map This! - Cartography Services will upload the map to the STEX and make it available to the general membership.  Also, this will allow kingofblades to post pictures of the map used in his upcoming CJ.

Regards,

Vandy

    Ok Guys and Gals. 

    First of all a big up for Vandy of Van Enterprises for creating this great map, 

    soon on your hard drive too. 

    Secondly I got it!

    The amount of participation is linked to the amount of nice pictures I deliver.

    As you can see below I havent done much development in City Screen yet.

    I plan to turn every city to year 10 before you can participate in that city afairs.

    Here is what I did so far:

    1) provide a nice overview. both satelite & transportation.

         that I will update on an onchange base.

    2) City of Averden, incl. LLandan.

    3) Woodridge     

    4) Perydale (not finished but hit year 10)

    5) Jessica Fields

    6) Port West (only one district so far, no port yet but 

         I am working on it)

    Therefore with no further blah blah here go the images (click for larger version): 

    600x450_ro_sat.jpg

    Oh sorry some blah blah before the next image, mind the X's. 

    Name the X contest. Give the X a name. 

    This weeks poll is for X1and X2.

    and dont nag about the bad hill outlines I will redo them later on.

    Perydale

    Woodridge (sorry for the blank spot with BSC Farms)

    More screenshots next week.

    I see them now. Looks like a nice start.

    You can change the allowed size that you can upload to photobucket. Right under the box that shows which files you're uploading.2.gif

    ok cool, I will try this on further updates.

    yet the region overview will be updated on a regular base, so i will have it on my page anyways.

    http://cityjournal.markanthony.de/ will host the overview and sometime in the future pseudo pages for the cities, the state and important persons. but I will announce that here too.

    think of it as reference.

    for those that prefer the smaller photobucket version: X1 and X2 are the cities on Koyama Island east (across the bay) of Bayside (Downtown).

    If any of you guys and gals have request feel free to throw them at me

    Port West

    This Update features Port West (north is left on the pictures). 

    Port West is the industrial heart of my region, yet only second  the City of Bayside that is more 

    influencial, beeing a finacial and political central. Bayside only came to fame because of the

    importance of the Port as a key in trading routes for SimNation. So the citizen are proud of 

    there city.

    Not yet fully developted, currently missing are the low density residential area to the north

    and some medium develoment to the south and south west, I also need to finish the port 

    and add more jobs to the city.  uh and the suburbs and industrial areas.

    Overview

    Overview.jpg

    The (unfinished) Port, needs more containers and stuff. also the access roads need to be expanded:

    theharbour.jpg

    Some nice neighborhood by the see suggested name in the council is Southbeach.

    Southbeach.jpg

    The East end, mostly smaller houses and industrial area. also features a small forest area

    EastEnd.jpg

    And last but not least the Upperclass sims demanded a Marina so the City

    Council converted the historical harbor area to this handsome Marina.

    A path leads up the into the forest which is popular with sims that like to

    have a walk in the forest. there is also a small pond.

    cheers,

    Govenor Koyama

    I couldn't play much sim city and therefore nothing much to post to you guys...

    I created a monster screen shot of the 'Pond' that divides the two suburbs

    Gallomen Grove and Ashhall, both are located at the West of Bayside

    Downtown.

    20090406Bayside.png

    The Pond as you can see is PEG Pond... well ok you would have guessed

    so...

    You see two medium sized cities (well parts of them) Ashhall is to the south

    the western island belongs to it, to the north of the pond lies Gallomen Grove

    the eastern island belongs to it... you also see some space that needs to be

    developed ...

    What you don't see at the close up is the airport but I hope you can see it

    in the overview (bottom right of the red frame).

    A 75% Quality 4mb 6280x3867 version of the above can be downloaded here:

    (do you guys know a forum friendly, free site that lets me put 4mb up?)

    Anyhow, got a hold on most PEG OWW2 Lots and most likely will put them to use next.

    cheers,

    Governor Koyama
