Mex,

Outstanding job on all those parks/golf courses.  Your journal is, as I believe you said on page 1, an great visual (SC4-style) history and tour of SF.  I love the detail of the updates, and I guess that will make the rest of the tour all that much better.  Keep up the great work!

Replying to your comments and Questions.

meinhosen - Thank you for your great compliments. Thank you I do try to keep my eye on it.

palmgurl - Thank you, Glad that you like the lake, I try to stay as close as possible... I believe there aren't any rooms that I know of.

 

E.J.C - Why.. Thank you.

 

 

The Homes around the Golf Course.

 

Well I thought maybe I should show you guys the homes around the Golf Course. Since many of you really liked the road like layout. So here is this update around the Golf Course. I do try to keep my homes from growing to a minimum. So I don't get the NO JOB thingy Which really scares me off when I see it. Some places you've maybe seen already. But I guess it will be worth it.

Enjoy!!

 

 

The Fog lift's away from the warm Sunshine ahead.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

These homes that are black, Which I know why they are. That's because the stupid Avenue seems to make them can't find a job? What? Stupid Sims..

Thanks for all the replies

I like this CJ and I've been keeping track of it for some time now. It's one of the better recreation Cjs out there. Also is part of the inspiration for a project I'm currently working on. Keep up the good work, I esspecially like the way those residential areas came out, but I would say the best part of it is the way you made those forests blend in nicely with the enviornment.

[Mikeaut1 261]

Yeah, the road layout is amazing! So windy! Can't wait to see some more of this!!

Nice pics those homes look great he he i see traffic again at one intersection and u have the avenue turning lanes on the right side and my city has it on the left side and im trying to figure out how to fix it...makes me sad but by far your city is looking great

[Chris M 406]

This looks very nice, but I think you should use cycledogg's trees instead of peg's around those residential areas to make it look more realistic.

[Superstar 69]

Beautiful stuff! All the green makes the CJ look really detailed and worked on and it looks real great that way, keep it up!

[jacqulina 162]

wow that does look nice,i love the roundabouts i dont think i have put mine in the right folder i still cant get them to work,nice houses

[jessyka who? 1]

I really love this CJ! Everything looks great! And those nighttime fog shots just look amazing! Great work.

[palmgurl 1]

that fog is awesome the homes look realistic how do you do that roundabout??? i don't see how you can do that in the nam because there is grass in the middle all the time and yours donet???

[dhoppeii 12]

Another great update Mexicanboy.  I really liked how you used the round-a-bout as a cul-de-sac.  It looks great.

[meinhosen 11]

how do you do that roundabout??? i don't see how you can do that in the nam because there is grass in the middle all the time and yours donet???

 

Isn't that roundabout/ cul-de-sac the little trick you use with an avenue?  It looks cool, btw.  Gonna have to try that again in my cities.

[kingofsimcity 5,740]

Magnifique. Sorry I've missed so much! Those rowhomes sure do remind me of the show Full House on Nick at Nite.

Great update of the Presidio I like the pictures with fog. You are very good at creating fog in the picture.  When I look at the picture and I see that you put name on the important street. It is a very good idea to put the street name, so people can kown what part of the city they are looking at. after looking at the new pictures of the Presidio, I don't they there is a Lincoln Blvd. in the Presidio. However, there is a Lincoln Blvd. in the Sunset district.

[Stik Fig 2]

Excellent...Just breathtaking. The realism is amazing, the terraforming. Everything.

P.S. Thanks for helping me with the map...though its still a failure....

    NIce.......can't wait until the airport comes (i wanna see how you will make it)! Great job! I mean, really, not just to make you feel good..you deserve it!

[Glenni 1,447]

that looks quite good.

[MissTonya 2]

Yo it's Tonya!

Replying to your Comments and Questions

Buffalonian1 - Thank very much, So happy to hear you really enjoy viewing this City Journal. I do try my hardest when it comes to detail. I hope to see you again very soon.

 

Mikeaut1 - Thanks, so it does feel pretty windy in here?

 

Codythemonkey - Thanks, glad you liked the traffic. Yes I am using the NAM, which is a great mod to use and I do recommend it to anyone reading this. Your problem with the lanes is that you need to delete the file Left Turning lanes in the NAM. Thank...

 

DragonAnime - I don't want to use the Doggy's Mod around those areas, because I think they are too tall even the oaks. I think Peg's do blend in well even with grasses..

 

superstar - Why thank you..! [:big smile:]

 

jacqulina - You don't really need to download the Mod, I haven't downloaded it my self. I rather wait until it is in the NAM. I will show you a little tutorial. Thanks, Glad you liked the homes all around the area.

 

jessyka who? - Thanks for dropping in. Hey nice to read someone likes the Foggy areas..

 

palmgurl - Thanks, Glad you liked the fogginess as well. I will show you a little tutorial on how to do this as well. You are right it isn't part of the Roundabout mod.

 

dhoppeii- Thank you, Glad to see you drop by here.

 

meinhosen - Thanks..

 

kingofsimcity - It's alright, glad to see you come around. lol.. Full House... I remember that show on the WB..

 

lucsteven - Thank, Glad you see you enjoying this City Journal. Yes, I do try to add the Name of the Street so people get the clue on where I am. There is a street called Lincoln in the Presidio..

 

Stick Fig - Thanks for commenting! Sorry to hear it wasn't a success.

 

Omiomitofu - I haven't even started the Airport area. I would even hate to start it. It's very hard to make airports, But how I remembered SFO I should get it correctly how I am doing all of the rest of the City. Just wait until I post a region show.

 

GLENNI, Miss Tonya - Thanks, Glad to see you guys comment in here.

Baker Beach

~Updated~

 

The Mile-long Beach lies at the foot of rugged serpentine cliffs west of the Golden Gate. Large waves, undertow and rip currents make the beach unsafe for swimming, but it provides panoramic views of the Golden Gate Bridge, Marin Headlands and Lands End. You can fish or check out the shorelife along the beach and rocky shoreline. Restrooms and picnic tables are nearby.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I blieve I didn't do so well with this beach.. It didn't pass the OK with me.. I think I still may have to spruce it up more...

 

Now that's Perfect!!

[palmgurl 1]
