    Your CJ is very nice! I really like the campsite area from your last few updates. Also the work in your latest update is excellent, the treeline is very realistic and so are the farms. 4.gif

    Well, Here is the newest update that I promise back on Monday, I got caught up with Vacation from Work to not post on Monday, but today. This is all about the city of Beverley located a few miles to the north of Flagstaff (the largest city and a future update). Beverley is surrounded by mountains to the east and to the north and farms to the west and south. Situated at the base of Beverley Pass, Beverley was settled in 1930 and was named Denali, but quickly changed the name to Beverley after the train station that was rebuilt to handle the increase use to  Flagstaff and points to the north.

    Now to the replies.

    Jacky: Thank you very much my friend.

    Elemented09: Thank you and Welcome to Northwoods County Area.

    Jonpaulsiglos: Welcome to Northwoods County Area and thanks for the comment.

    Danielcote: Thanks for the comment Dan.

    Sc4poser-moser: Thanks very much.

    Now to the pictures shall we.

    Great to see the update Jon.  And as always, I enjoyed seeing it.  Beverly reminds me a little bit of where I live..mostly because of the trees and unspoiled land that graces the town.

    Very nice, I would never have thought of using the semi-dirt streets for the area but it really fits for the town! I also like the rural town feel of the Beverley, seems quiet and peaceful 4.gif

    Oh boy... this is one heck of a magnificent CJ! Your use of the custom content is amazing, everything seems to be in the perfect harmony! The residential area of Beverley looks really splendid, the choice of the houses is great. The commercials and civics fit perfectly in between the residential development, which is great too! And also, I like the fact that you've used one track railways instead of the dual ones. That somehow adds to the realism in my humble opinion. But by far the best part of the town is the industrial park - it looks balanced and everything is in place. I don't even mind the griddy road layout there, as it's pretty common for that kind of development, isn't it? The only major thing that I can suggest after seeing this awesome update is looking for/changing the slope mod. The roads and railway have a bit too steep slopes in my opinion, and I wonder if you could try and find something that makes the problem seem smaller.

    Keep up the great work! 2.gif

    Here is the Flagstaff Update. Flagstaff has a population of about 80,000 and is the county seat for Northwoods County and serves as a hub of rail, road and air. Located in a valley surrounded by hills and mountains at an elevation of 2,000 feet abouve sea level. Founded in 1876 by someone from Flagstaff, Arizona which the area reminded him of home. Now Flagstaff has grown to cover the entire valley floor.

    Reply: Ironicepitome: Thank you.

    Now to pictures:

    Due to a pending lawsuit from the City of Flagstaff (lol), I am told to stop showing the city until further notice. The next update will be this weekend (Father's Day weekend) and will feature the city of Logan. Sorry for the latest stint of RL. JKB
