The city of Cheesey

[housefish17 0]

Where to start?

Welp, I've been lurking here for about a month or so, this is infact my first post. I would like to congratulate all those in the CJ section of this site that have continued to inspire me and my quest to actually make a realistic city. So this is my first attempt.

The region is a mimic of the Capital district of New York, where the mayor happened to meet his wife (true story).

The suburb of Goat though doesn't quite yet have the technology (also read as, the mayor doesn't quite have the knowledge of how to create region views) to get a full scale map of the area.

So we begin our tour of Cheesey in the small suburb of Goat, the only populated area in the region thus far. Hope you enjoy. Also, for those looking for a region view, well you'll just have to be patient for the people of Cheesey to develop the knowledge and technology to get the satellite views of the region.

And for the very first picture...drum roll

The Beginnings...

The first signs of "big industry"...

The town as almost a whole...

"Downtown" Goat...

And as you guys/gals can see, I don't really know how to post pictures

I'm using the NAM  (which is fantastic)

I'm in the process of learning how to use the SAM

I'm sure you will see a lot of the following peoples work in the CJ:

Simgoober

Jeronij

riptide

Marrast

jbsimio (which is apparent in the first couple of pics)

jestarr

deadwoods

pegasus

and many more on the STEX and LEX. The region is created by sblanc1087

Hey everyone, mayor of Cheesey here. I see a handful of you have stopped by to see whats going on. I'm sad to say our revenue just can't quite yet provide the tourist attractions, and lodging to have you guys stay in town and interested for a couple days.

If you notice from the pictures following, Cheesey had quite a dry spout, you can see the beds of the small creeks running around the town. Anywho, check out the newly developed area  of Fermunda, just east of Goat

Here's the newly created fishing hole behind the hospital...

The beautiful new park, and right next to that is the site of the annual Fermunda Police Deptartment vs. Fermunda Fire Department softball game...

The rail bridge over a dried up creek...

The quiet life that neighboring bustling city citizens seek...

And those said citizens' brand new hospital...

And the citizens of Cheesey wishing all you hopeful tourists a goodnight...

I hope you guys enjoyed stopping by, I know my citizens loved having you and enjoyed your company the entire time. Feel free to stop by anytime, and if there's anything else you would like to see here in Cheesey, just drop a me a line, I'm open 24/7. Bye Bye

Good start and I hope to see more from you. One recommendation that I would have is that it wouldn't hurt to flatten the terrain where you're building. It makes it look more organized and it's more realistic - just my two cents though.

Hi Housefish17, looks good so far - I would agree with MCO1254. Flatted some areas first, especially the roads for a more realistic look.

either use single road tiles or

Good luck!!

MCO1254 - Thanks for stopping by, I'm sorry the roads were a bit rough, hope your driving an automatic, vice a standard

d_j_p1 - thanks a bunch for the link, I'll definitely look into it.

It is pretty annoying trying to have realistic parking lots attached to the building when the parking lots are 10 feet above or under the road they are supposed to connect to.

Thanks for the support for making Cheesey a nice destination.

Welcome back everyone. Just for those new stopping by, I have started employing Pegasus and his amazing terrain leveling squad. I think you guy's will be pleased to finally have a place to rest your head when you come visit, and finally a shopping area (yeap, it's a Walmart). Hope you enjoy your visit

Here's where most of our visitors stay...

And neighboring Super 8 is the brand new Walmart...

One of our few parks...

And an overall city view from our traffic chopper...

And if you have any tips for dealing with these hoodlums...

And the aftermath of the big drought...

Hope you guys once again enjoyed the scenery and now that you have a place to stay, maybe stop by a little more often.

Ah, it's a very nice little town! I would like to see it develop! Good start, it looks fairly realistic, and I like the trees everywhere.
